Monica pretty lil self is making major moves! For the February/March issue Today’s Black Woman Style Report has placed her on their cover! In the latest edition they discuss fashion, layered outfits that will keep you looking fabulous and showcase some hot looks.

“When it comes to her musical talents, singer-songwriter, Monica, never ceases to amaze us—and her fashion sense is no different. Over the years, we’ve seen Monica in all styles—from long, gorgeous dresses—to more casual looks—Monica has successfully rocked it all. Now, she shares her fashion tips with the world via an exclusive chat and photo spread with TBW. The R&B sensation shared her love for accessories, her favorite looks, who her go-to stylists are and whom she feels is her beauty and fashion icon.

Another feature—that may quite possibly be a first for TBW—not only features a lovely songstress, but costars a handsome male singer, as well. Flip the page to TBW’s beautiful photo spread featuring singer, Olivia, and R&B legend, Mr. Johnny Gill. The two paired up lovely as they posed in elegant evening attire. Johnny in a strapping Hugo Boss tux, and ‘Liv in a gorgeous black chiffon gown. Check them out in these incredible looks and a few others in the exclusive four-page spread.

Today’s Black Woman Style Report also sat down with “Basketball Wives” star, Tami Roman, to discuss her simple—yet strategic—style, her ability to open up to the public and some of the challenges she’s had to overcome since being on the popular television show. Others stars highlighted in the jam-packed issue include: La La Anthony, Teairra Marie, Gloria Govan, Angela Simmons, Ashanti, Selita Ebanks, the lovely ladies of “Real Housewives of Atlanta” and the sisters of “Braxton Family Values.”

It was so good to see my friend Monica at Sam’s Club today doing something great in the community! Sam’s Club donates 1 million dollars to feeding America, singer Monica joined in to help raise awareness of child hunger in the U.S.

Today at Sam’s Club off of Clairmont Rd in Atlanta, they had “A taste for you” an annual event where they invite members and guests to get in the holiday spirit by sampling a variety of gourmet holiday foods at Clubs nationwide. Sam’s club donates $1 million dollars to support child hunger programs through Feeding Americal, the nation’s leading domestic hunger relief charity. As part of the donation, Atlanta Community Food Bank received $75,000. The annual event was kicked off with R&B artist Monica, as she joined forces with Sam’s for a meet & greet.

It was said that one of Monica’s sons was taking food out of their home and giving it to one of his classmates that was hungry before she realized what was going on. That made her want to be involved with the program and bring awareness to this growing epidemic. One out of 6 people are not eating well balanced meals daily.

It was so good to catch up with Monica and see her interact with the staff members at Sam’s, talk with fans,sign autographs and take pictures. Check out the photos and thanks to Monica’s team for inviting me out!

Christian Balenciaga(GeishaBoii)

I’ve been seeing alot of Christians work all over town.He is a celebrity makeup artist here in Atlanta and I was dying to try him out. We connected on twitter (both of our social network hangouts) and we set up a date for me to come by. First I would like to say he is very sweet.I loved his personality and we vibed right off the rip. When I got to his house, I noticed the house decor. I was so impressed by the artwork and decor of his home it was quite exciting to look at wow! He loves asian inspired artifacts, plus he goes by GeishaBoii anyway, I kinda knew what to expect.

Me before the beat down lol

After the beat down, I survived lol

I’m feeling pretty!

I was greeted by four fluffy furry animals! Im not a fan of animals but his doggies were gorg! I met Tahjz and Tyson. All his dogs were so cute and friendly. He had everything set up and we proceeded to “Beat me down” as he liked to call it. We chatted about people he liked to work with and some celeb faces he has done. I asked Christian who was some of his favs and what kinda of faces he likes to work with. He told me he loves to work on women with alot of facial features. Women with keen features he loves. Some of his clients include singer Monica,comedian/talk show host Monique and soo many more. He said its hardly any women in the industry that he has not beat lol.

Some of Christian’s Makeup!

I’m feeling this look,yes!

I was going to an event last night and he told me to come over to work his magic. As you can see when I’m not working I’m in sweat pants and t-shirts and hair pulled back.I’m very low key at home or out and about, just like Christian. He said alot of people take him the wrong way but he is just very quiet and subdued. I’m not as quiet as he is but I totally understand  him. He said he just wants to do great work in a field he loves. I can totally respect that and his art.

Christian’s dog Tyson

Christian’s other dog Tahjz, too cute!

Ready to go tackle the red carpet lol

We talked and laughed and his mom even stopped by. She came by to make him some dressing, which he says is his favorite. He said I was pretty easy to do but some clients can take awhile to achieve a total look. I do know that Christian likes to also get into character when he goes out. I’ve snapped him a couple of times dressed up. I almost dont recognize him on the red carpets, he brings the drama…Pow! If  your looking for a makeup artist please check out some of Christians work. He is on facebook and twitter just look up www.twitter.com/geishaboii or Christian Balenciaga on facebook! Thanks Christian I love my look, you beat me down lol!

Happy Birthday Lil Rocko & Romelo!

Last night I had a fun time going to Lil Rocko & Romelo’s Birthday Extravaganza! These two handsome young men know how to throw a party! Their party was held at a new bowling facility called, Red Carpet Lanes located in Duluth,Ga. All the celebrities hang out here on Sundays.  Lil Rocko and Romelo had other plans though, by shutting down the whole bowling alley and making it their special day, ha!

This red carpet affair had nothing but the hottest celeb kids and their parents strolling down the carpet, looking hot! They were kinda quiet looking around with their stunner shades on, dressed in their orange and blue Polo matching outfits! They were cleaner than the board of health lol. They waved to all their fans as they arrived being carried in by their parents, singer Monica and rapper Rocko, (you know they didnt want to get their kicks dirty) lol. When the Papparazzi finished taking their pics they  showed everyone around and made sure everybody was well taken of. You could bowl,play video games,eat in the V.i.P. area and take keepsake photos, courtesy of  Celeb Photographer FreddyO. They even gave out thank you t-shirts with their faces on them, now thats Pinktastic!

Lil Rocko and Romelo’s families from both sides came out to show support. I asked the boys when they aren’t designing for their clothing line, attending red carpet affairs, and taping their reality show, what do they like to do? They responded, that they love to go to Dollywood. They told me they absolutely love it!  You can tell they have a great family unit and we all know, family is very important.

Some celeb sightings I saw were Jermaine Dupri and his daughter Shaniah, Celeb Photographer Derek Blanks and his son Beau(Beau, you and I have to have a talk lol) and some reality stars like, Jamilah Rouse of The Real Women of Atlanta and football players.

The boys blew out their candals and cut their cake, (which was too cute by the way) and they had tons of gifts to take home. I would like to thank the boys for the personal invite, my son and I had a great time! Ina from The Starfire Group and The Garner Circle Pr did a fantastic job! Check out the pics below!
