Ria Michelle

Beauty

California Dreamin’

October 29, 2011

I’m finally getting around to posting the editorial I did for Your Beauty Industry magazine back in April and the magazine came out in August. I love styling for magazines but I hate the wait for images.



I pulled clothing from KrelWear, Filthy Magic, Ema Savahl and my own closet of course. Jewelry was all provided by Charles Albert who I’ve worked with several times. Their pieces always put the perfect finishing touches on an outfit. McKenna wanted the Ema Savahl dress she wore in the 2nd row of images (middle shot), I think she almost had her mom convinced to purchase it for her for prom.


I took some behind the scenes photos in the early stages of the shoot before I started running around like a mad woman. I wish I’d gotten shots of all of the outfits. I just have skeleton photos for reference and those aren’t any fun.


Bonus photo: A iPhone 3GS picture collage

I loved working with photographer Elise Donoghue, makeup artist Debra Macki, and hair stylist Johnny Diol. We had a lot of fun shooting. The other shoot I did for YBI isn’t out yet so I’m still looking forward to seeing how those images turned out.

    These look amazing Ria! You really captured the SoCal aesthetic.. the hair, the locations and the casual-cool clothes. And oh yeah, waiting for photos is NOT the business haha

Honored to have closed out Black History Month hosting a dinner with @eatjrk and some of my favorite miami creators. We took over Jrk’s sister space @mangrove.miami (a whole vibe) to celebrate not only Jrk’s expansion to @shopdadeland, and reggae month but also ourselves. A reminder to never stop showing up, taking up space, sharing community and of course delicious food along the way. 

Up next…women’s history month. Let’s go! 🙌🏾🤍🪩

You can take the girl out of Trinidad…🇹🇹😛💃🏾✨ so glad I was able to catch this installation at @miamidesigndistrict. J’OUVERT by British-Trinidadian artist @zakove came alive through performance, music, and ritual, bringing that carnival energy into the city.

Moments like this remind me why I love experiencing art in the city, especially when it feels this rooted and alive.
