“DRAMA QUEENS” EDITORIAL FOR GOJI MAGAZINE VOL. 4 ISSUE 14

STYLED & DIRECTED BY SHARRA GREENE

Hey loves! Just dropping by the blog to share my latest editorial work for the cover of Goji Magazine. Goji’s concept is all about “unconditional love for femininity with no borders” and if you know my aesthetic, you know that Goji and I were the perfect match for this project.

I was so blessed to blend styles from various brands with the work of sustainable artwear designer Hannah Jane being at the forefront! Hannah has been a guest on my podcast (check out her episode here) and we’ve been talking for months about executing an editorial together so I had a blast combining her aesthetic with mine! (Her work is so bomb, check her out on Instagram)

My partner in creative crime Damon Rice killed this photo set per usual, and models Cyana Denby (my favorite Eagles cheerleader) and the gorgeous Nioby Scarbrough had such great chemistry on camera, it was crazy to watch in real time. (Stay tuned to my Instagram for more behind the scenes footage coming soon!) Makeup Artist Teashera Smith was able to come in super last minute and absolutely SLAY these beauties’ faces and my amazing assistant Destiny made this shoot run so smoothly for me so that I could focus on final looks and directing.

#NEWYORKFASHIONWEEK RECAP FEB 2019: BEING A STUDENT OF MY CRAFT AT THE SHOWS & SEASONAL STYLES TO BE ON THE LOOK OUT FOR

WRITTEN BY SHARRA GREENE | PHOTOS BY MONICA KRYSTEL ROSE

So this year for fashion week, I spent the days taking in runway shows, attending showcases, and capturing content with my boo Comfort, Style Blogger and Writer of CNK Stylebook (check her site out, her content is BOMB.) Comfort and I met a little over a year ago, as we were both doing press coverage for a charity fashion event in May 2018. I always love attending events with Comfort because we’re both about our business and constantly thinking of ways to grow our brands while having a dope time in the process.

This year’s NYFW experience was a little different than my experience back in September, being that I spent most of last year’s fashion week running around backstage, styling and perfecting designers’ collections before they hit the runway, with the exception of attending a BOMB group show sponsored by Fashion Bomb Daily on my last day. But this time, I got the opportunity to get dressed, flick it up, and just take it all in while in the audience. Though I’m sure it won’t be long before I’m right back in full stylist mode chaos, this trip was just what I needed.

We watched severals shows, with a few of my favorites being Ron Ramos, who brought sexy suiting in vibrant colors to the runway, Out of Order, the brand that brought us some of the dopest streetwear I’ve seen in a while, as well as a live showcase by Landeros New York, in which models sported lush outerwear in rich colors and fabrics, slick patent leather pieces, and cool trousers, an aesthetic that was unmatched. For some of my fave show moments, check out my events & NYFW highlights on my styling page’s instagram.

Me and Comfort grabbing drinks before a show, of course my drink is almost gone by the time we started taking pics lol.

One thing that I always try to do while attending a fashion show, is to be a student of my craft and really soak in the designer’s creativity by paying very close attention to detail. Everything from the color story and fabric range of a collection, to the models chosen, down to the way the stylist or designer has accessorized each look, really helps me be a better stylist. Studying the details, both big and small, allow me to see where fashion is going, in terms of trends, specific silhouettes, and just the overall culture.

I’m always on the look out for new styles that I want to try for myself, as well as some that I want to introduce to my clients and try on models. A few trends that I see emerging and making their way around for the upcoming seasons are dramatically oversized outerwear in eccentric shapes, suits and co-ords being done in vibrant colors such as magenta, royal blue, lime green and citrus, as well as patent leather separates. All of these are dope looks spotted on the runways to incorporate into your wardrobe for a look that’s ahead of the curve.

Shop our Looks: Comfort and I both channeled slight 70’s vibes for our Day1 looks. Comfort is wearing a two piece plaid set and white ankle boots from Nasty Gal, and a thrifted DKNY blazer (shop a similar one here) I am wearing a ribbed fringe sleeve mini dress by Akira, PLT studded belt and snakeskin thigh high boots, double disc earrings from Forever 21, vintage clutch, bangles and ring I got forever ago.

I always leave fashion week with a new found sense of creativity, and feeling so inspired. Whether working behind the scenes doing what I love, or watching it all take place, it’s always the best time for me to network, build connections, and get inspired. I already can’t wait to do it all again for September! What were some of you guys’ favorite designer collections this NYFW? Let me know in the comments!

          In this photo series, I wanted to capture the style and attitude of a woman with both around the way appeal, and high fashion qualities and taste. Her style is always bold and a tad sporty. I combined retro feels with modern day pieces to create an eclectic version of street style with vibrant prints, colors, and textures. Model Kayana Howard embodied the concept naturally and perfectly. Photographer Damon Rice captured the many layers of each look impeccably. Makeup Artist Ty Hubert created gorgeous cohesive yet clean makeup looks.
