“behind the scenes” for fashionsign magazine’s team contributor photo shoot

September 10th 2011 was a day full of sun and fun for our FASHIONSIGN Magazine team!

With help from Blo – Blow Dry Bar Inc. (located on 1st Street, SW) and styled by FASHIONSIGN’S very own stylist, KD Faustino (The Girl With The Messy Hair) our team rocked nothing but fabulous looks as we strutted our outfits personally from Mealan during the “Contributor’s” photo shoot. We can honestly say that each and every one of us felt like a “star” for a few hours that day!

Upon entering the salon we were greeted with pink sparkling champagne and a few hair stylists who promised nothing but miracles on all of our hair… and miracles they did achieve! The Blo girls were just fantastic as we practically took over their salon, with our bodies, clothes, shoes and accessories; making us feel welcomed and gladly offering feedback on “looks” that each of us were trying to achieve for the day.

The shoot took place on a fabulously HOT September afternoon, right on 1st street, just outside of the salon. Not only was there a perfectly placed median for our use, but also, the city streets and buildings created for a very urban shoot. Not to mention the conveniently placed urban backdrop on one of the buildings… gave each of us some entertaining moments, as we experimented with different poses against it.

The day proved to be a grand success as we viewed the sample shots- smiles and laughter outlining each contributors face.
