Hey Fashionistas!
Sorry for my negligence, I owe you all 1,00,0000 apologies!
But, in recent news, I’M A COLLEGE GRADUATE!!!!!!!!!!Well, not officially, but after May 18th, I will be!
So, just a little catch-up session, my internship at discovery communications was AWESOME! Want to know more about it? Just contact me. School is OVER, my company Elitist LLC: Public Relations Firm is doing amazing and my other company Elitist Snob inc. is on the up and up, so all has been awesome!
Well, I turned 22 last month and my lovely mother told me that she was going to combine my Birthday and Graduation presents because this gift would be BIG!
At the time, I wasn’t sure just how big, but she assured me that it is something that I have wanted for a while and that I would be pleasantly surprised!
Before I do the big reveal, I am graduating with a 3.6 GPA with honors in the top 15% of my class as a member of two international honor societies. Hence: I am WELL DESERVING!
Now…………………….
I present to you…………..
the UnBoxing……………….
YES, EVERYONE! My present was none other then the HIGHLY COVETED, very RARE Christian Louboutin Daffodile pumps! I have been chasing these shoes for the past 3 years, and I can FINALLY call them mine!!!!
Here is a video of me walking in them for the VERY FIRST TIME!
Here are a few photos of my new babies and what they came with. Enjoy, Until next time. XOXO
March 5th officially CANNOT come fast enough!!! Why? Well, for anyone who has subscribed to RIVER ISLAND‘s newsletter, then you know that the Rihanna x River Island collection is about to launch! The collab collection just graced the runways of London and River Island has finally released the looks!
First, here are the campaign photos for the spring line:
GAH!!!!! I die EVERY TIME I look at them! Well, without further ado: Here’s the collection! I think that Rihanna definitely stayed true to her style and who she is. The line looks amazing and I can’t wait to get my hands on a few of these pieces.
RAW natural born artists is an amazing organization that showcases Raw talent. On FEB 07, 2013, they will be showcasing an event in Baltimore at TATU- 614 Water St. and two of my really great friends – Shelby and Sandy- are being featured for their clothing line Atiler Grand.

Shelby
Although i’ll be backstage most of the time helping with the behind the scenes grunt work (if you’re thinking about doing fashion PR, PLEASE know that all of the bells and whistles are FAKE! We NEVER get to see the show), i’ll have a correspondent there to take photos for me, if possible.
So, I decided to take this time out to show you all a bit of ATILER GRAND! You can visit their site HERE if you would like to purchase an item or two or TEN!

So, as you all know, I have already begun taking clients to build my brand as a Public Relations practitioner. Recently, I registered my LLC (YAY!) under the name: ELITIST LLC. I HAVE ARRIVED! Well, not really, but I will one day, haha!
Anyway, I recently made a VERY big and VERY difficult decision to let go of one of my clients. I haven’t revealed who that is until NOW!
On January 27, 2013, I resigned as publicist for F-Gutta, a local Hip Hop artist in Baltimore, MD.
I don’t want to go too much into details, so I will leave it as we have creative differences and that the partnership ran its course. I wished him well and I do hope that he succeeds.
MOVING ON, my world is in CONSTANT turmoil and I am always looking for bigger and BETTER ways to improve myself, my business and others. I mean, I AM in the business of IMAGE!
Anyway, there is an INCREDIBLY talented individual who I have been a fan of and supported for YEARS that has finally reached out to me in terms of building a partnership. This individual is INSANELY talented and is driven like NO OTHER!
He is Underground artist Mathematics!
Who is Mathematics?
“To put it simply, he is a seemingly average guy from Baltimore, Maryland who happens to have undeniable musical talent. Though he may be too humble to agree, his style is often compared to the likes of Jay-Z, Nas, and Common. Mathematics’ music can best be described as being incredibly smooth and enjoyably thought-provoking. Nevertheless, he isn’t confined to one particular style; he often diversifies his techniques, using swift deliveries on more upbeat tracks.” -Source: MathematicsMusic.com
How can his music be described?
“Controversially, Mathematics’ lyrics are brutally truthful. There are no masks, just truth, no matter how unconventional or unpopular it may be in today’s music industry. Through his music, you can take a rare look into his mind and visualize the highs and lows he deals with day-to-day. Mathematics crafts his music in such ways that listeners are able to easily identify with the struggles and stresses of life, while also enjoying the triumphs. Mathematics draws his musical inspiration from Nas, Jay-Z, Lupe Fiasco, Kanye West, Eminem. He is also heavily influenced by legends like Michael Jackson and Sammy Davis, Jr.” -Source: MathematicsMusic.com
What else is there to him?
“Mathematics isn’t just a rapper, he is a true artist in every sense of the word. His profound lyricism is uncommon in an industry that is littered with labels and artists who are motivated by making money fast, not true talent. He is a much-needed breath of fresh air in the midst of artists whose lyrics a filled with lies, sex, drugs, money, and more lies. Rather than complaining about the state of the music industry, Mathematics just hopes to make undeniable positive music and spread it to anyone who is willing to listen.” -Source: MathematicsMusic.com
