ARISE Fashion Show with some cool Nigerians..Oshe!
On Thursday I covered the ARISE Fashion Show (New York Fashion Week) for www.societyhae.com.
Great event...all I could think while watching the show was, I want that outfit...and that one..oohh and that one too. The gift bags were pretty cool. Inside was a copy of ARISE Magazine along with a hot oil treatment from Mizani, a Radiance Revealing Peel-Off Mask by Decleor Paris for the the face (made with essential oils and fruit extracts :-) ), a cool tote bag (good for my shopping at the Park Slope Food Coop), and some gourmet candy treats (yummy).
After the show I hung out a bit with some cool Nigerians - Ngozi Odita (Society Hae), Ogugua (Promotions of all things African (Fela On Broadway etc etc), DBanj (Nigerian hip-hop artist just signed to Kanye West's Good Music), and Sound Sultan in town doing some work with Wyclef and others.

Fake sleeping
I was soooooo tired upon engaging in the 14 hour drive. I slept for about 5 of the 7.5 hours that we've been on the road. We are still in Italy -- such a beautiful green landscape. Everyone on the bus is just doing their own thing, I'm downloading footage and listening to DBanj play in the background. Seun just gave a live performance of Boys II Men, "I'll Make Love to You" and "End of the Road." Who knows when the next 15 min rest stop will be. I haven't really eaten a good meal yet, just a little here and there. I'm so afraid that I won't be able to eat anything in Germany --hopefully I can find some good veggies... LOL!
