Mercedes Benz - Chicago's Fashion Week

Hi guys!

I hope you guys are all doing great! Two weeks ago, I had the honor of attending Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in Chicago, hosted by Fashion Bar Chicago. A huge thanks to Fashion Bar Chicago, specifically Caitlin Nero. Now, I must say that I was very much impressed. I was so happy to recieve such nice treatment by the staff and be greeted by so many awesome fellow bloggers/media personell.

I loved a lot of the designs that were presented at this show. There seemed to be an overwhelming amount of dresses, which is common at female fashion shows, with very little seperates. However, each dress was so uniquely crafted that your eyes didn't tire. Also, I can appreciate their use of varying sized models.

Many of the collection hosted a theme, one was a time capsule throughout history. It demonstrated mod approaches to the styles of people in history, such as prehistoric times, WW1 , up to present day. Another one focused on fuisng fantasy fashion with evening wear, which turned out to be absolutely breath taking, so innovative. As you can see in the first picture of model, Denisa Coca, that was hands down my favorite from that collection.

Overall, I had an awesome time and was glad that I got to attend. Thank you so much to Tony Long, the CEO of Fahsion Bar Chicago, for making this happen! His passion is unbelievable and inspiring to everyone. I hope to be able to attend again next time ;)

About Me

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by! I'm Calynn, 18x Award Winning businesswoman, media personality and former pageant queen (Miss United States Universe Tourism 2021, Miss World America Nation 2020). I started this blog when I was barely 15 years old in January 2011 as a supplement to my application to the retail business internship at the downtown Chicago Nordstrom mall! I stayed there for 3 years learning the fundamentals of everything fashion business from sales and marketing to media and modeling. This was a phenomenal foundation to my career as it gave me the rudimentary knowledge and competitive edge that I needed to be successful! From there, I went on to college and obtained my first degree in Business and Humanities (the arts and social sciences). I wrote as a freelance journalist and editor for several large publications and hosted live cable television for two years. I walked countless red carpets being a VIP media guest at major industry events all over the country

38 Underrepresented World Wide Talents That You Need to Know!

In a world where so many great entrepreneurs and artists can become famous at the act of one viral video online, it's easy to get lost in the misconception that with social media's "power," anybody who is talented is already known. After all, it isn't as difficult to gain exposure and "get big" as it was 20 years ago before the Internet's Massive Media takeover, right? Partially yes, however, social media also makes the market 10x as saturated as it was 20 years ago. Thus, are you really that much further ahead if all of your competition has the means to one-up you, free of cost and inconvenience, just by posting to their online accounts? It's a lot to think about. That is why we here at The Fresh Faces Project work hard to make sure that the artists and entrepreneurs and do-gooders who are underrepresented and don't get the fame and acknowledgment that their talents merit are given a platform. That platform is us. When creating thi

Hey Guys! Thanks for checking in! I hope you've been well :) Do I have quite the update for you all! I know, I know. My failure to regularly post on my old faithful blog has gotten out of control. I used to post at least monthly, however, for the past couple of years I can only find the time to write you all two or three times a year. I want to thank you all for the continued support and readership from the bottom of my heart. Even reviewing my blog stats to see that this blog still receives 50-70K+ reads a year, even with my minimal posting makes me so happy. This post will discuss various events, endeavors and adventures that I've been getting into for the last several months so stay tuned to peep my highlights.
