Loved Doing the Makeup & Hair for the Cynthia Rose 2014 Spring Line

Cynthia Rose Collection

Here I am creating a hair and make up look on set at the Cynthia Rose 2014 Spring Line shoot “Fountain Bleu!”

Temptu publication jpeg 2

I worked with an amazing and talented crew. Exquisite Fashion Designer Cynthia Rose, International High Fashion Photographer Jonathan Bookallil and the beautiful and gracious model Dominyka Gajauskaite.

From Paris flea markets to couture houses around the world, Cynthia rose continues her passionate search for the most exquisite vintage fabrics and decadent trims defining her “elegance with an edge” philosophy.

The art of collage is the true inspiration behind the Cynthia rose collection of luxurious ready-to-wear and accessories.

The inspiration for the Spring 2014 collection entitled “FOUNTAINBLEU” evokes Palm Beach with a hint of the 20’s. The hand painted “Monet” inspired watercolor rose print is evident in the streamlined dresses and blouses and the intricately beaded bodices. The colors of goldenrod, aquamarine and blushed coral highlight the tweeds, suedes, laces, silks and cashmeres. Cynthia’s “signature sweaters” are breathtaking and essential for the Spring season.

Her signature limited edition works of art are collected by those who are true individuals.

In celebration of winter Olympic games in Russia, Mario and Sochi

In Celebration on the February 7th 2014 winter Olympic games in Russia, Mario and Sochi on Wii U launches on November 8th 2013.

Can’t hit the slopes this winter, or score a ticket to the 2014 Winter Olympics? Let professional snowboarder and Olympic hopeful Jamie Anderson school you in the art of snowboard slopestyle, a new sport making its debut in Sochi and in Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games for Wii U. Taking players to Sochi, Russia, Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games invites players of all abilities and ages to team up or face off as their favorite characters in the new Wii U game, which re-creates realistic Olympic events such as curling, skiing, figure skating and snowboard slopestyle. Players also can perform moves not possible in real life, such as the Winter Sports Champion Race, a mixed event that combines skiing, snowboarding, skating and bobsleigh in a single event.

I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing the delightful Ms Anderson.  She is as humble as she is talented. Jamie Anderson is a professional snowboard slopestyle competitor, six-time X Games medalist and Olympic hopeful. As a spokeswoman for Nintendo, Jamie Anderson introduces Wii U fans to Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games and discusses her journey to the Olympics and what it means to have snowboard slopestyle recognized as an Olympic sport for the first time in 2014.

 

On behalf of everyone at It’s a Glam Thing, I would like to wish Jamie Anderson the very best in Sochi, Russia 2014!
