Good morning everyone! I hope you are all well. I am doing very well, blessed as always. This week has been very nice, fun and busy. I have been working all week which is a blessing and will continue to be at Fashion Week everyday until it closes next week. I have done some very fun things this week which to ya'l might sound a little repetitive but I never take these things for granted.

On Monday, Labor Day, I was aboard the Bacardi float at the West Indian Day Parade in Brooklyn, NYC. This was my first year attending the parade because it is usually so crazy there that I have never been brave enough to come out. Well this year I had a great view (along with a paycheck) to motivate me. I didn't find the parade to be as crazy as I though it would be but after we left there was a SHOOTING : ( Aside from seeing Mayor Bloomberg, all the dancers and costumes, the part I liked the most was the FOOD! I have to admit that after the parade I was completed wiped out because I had been dancing for about 4 hours STRAIGHT. The dancing was great exercise but boy my legs were HURT. But being the PIG that I am that didn't prevent me from stopping by Junior's Restaurant on my way out of BK...gotta get my cheesecake : )

With a one-day rest on Tuesday, Wednesday began Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. I was hired by shoe brand Havaianas to work their booth INSIDE the main tent in Bryant Park. It has been an amazing experience. I have enjoyed meeting the fashionistas, fans, models and other industry folk. It has been inspirational seeing all of the amazing clothes, hanging out in the Mercedes-Benz and Moet Lounges. I have been pretty busy at the booth but I have seen Mary J. Blige (yesterday), Carrie Underwood, Carmen Electra, Jay Manuel, ANNA WINTOUR and Padma Lakshmi of Top Chef. The week is still young so I will report back next week with new developments.

Kisses!
