BECOMING A MERMAID FOR ANNA SUI FANTASIA

// Anna Sui Spring ’19 Ready-to-Wear + Anna Sui x Teva flatform sandals // 

I got to become a mermaid for the launch of Anna Sui’s Fantasia Mermaid fragrance launch. Iridescent with a mix of sea foam green and blue. Dreamy. This is one fragrance that lets my imagination run wild all summer long and I had so much fun shooting this campaign by the water in my home of Dumbo, Brooklyn. Sweet, floral, and fruity, it’s made for waterfront picnics. I’m also featuring my top two favorite looks straight from the Anna Sui Spring 2019 Ready-to-Wear runway. This is one runway show that really makes my heart skip a beat. It’s always one of the very last shows during NYFW, and it takes me back to the 60’s. The music. The colors. The hair. Always rock n’ roll, mysterious, and eclectic. There’s no other designer like her and I think that’s what makes her an icon. Dylana and I have loved her for years and years as young girls and to now work with her and be a part of her vision is a dream. You should also take a peep at the Anna Sui x Teva flatform sandals here. Adventure meets high fashion. May summer be one laying out in the sun oceanside.

A DEEP CLEAN | CREST GUM DETOXIFY

This is my all-in-one secret to a perfect smile: Crest’s Gum Detoxify toothpaste. I travel so much. Whether I am on the plane, or out on location at a photoshoot, I always keep this toothpaste in my bag. This isn’t an ordinary toothpaste. This advance paste has Activated Foam technology that reaches below the gum line to significantly improve gum health, leading to clinically proven healthier gums. I find it has much longer-term benefits. The complete coverage of the teeth and gum ensures an even, more powerful clean. Talk about a deep clean. The foam goes around and even below the gum line for lasting gum protection, and seeks out bacteria in the toughest of places.

Now, the health of my teeth is my last concern. With summer just around the corner, and even more travels on the schedule, I find it important to use a product that works even beyond the act of brushing. The detoxifying toothpaste allows me to have one less thing to worry about. But even so, waking up and brushing my teeth is still one of the most relaxing parts of my day. It’s my me time, my self love time and I have it all to myself. It’s so important to have brushing a part of our daily wellness rituals. Even on the go.

ICELAND WITH NARCISO RODRIGUEZ PURE MUSC FOR HER

The moment I checked into The Retreat Blue Lagoon hotel in Iceland, I did an immediate exhale. I had just landed after two back-to-back work trips in Europe and I was so ready for a real calming getaway. At The Retreat, I was welcomed by giant windows overlooking pools of blue and land covered in deep green moss… as far as the eye could see. I was in town with the Narciso Rodriguez team to shoot for the launch of the new fragrance, Pure Musc for Her. Iceland is certainly as naturally beautiful and pure of a location for our project and I was so excited. 
 
The Retreat, the home base and main shoot location for our project, has incredible clean lines and strong but simple architecture. Pure Musc for Her has a very similar feeling. Elegant. Powerful. Sensual. This is Narciso Rodrigiuez’s new edition of his musc collection. Pure Musc focuses heavily on musc in it’s most raw and natural form. It’s really just an addictive, sophisticated scent. To celebrate the launch, press from all over the world met in Iceland to really immerse in the art of the fragrance and the inspiration behind it. We indulged in all things pure and natural from the earth. Between shooting and long swims in the Blue Lagoon, I found myself at the spa, covering my entire body in a scrub, silica cleanse, and algae mask ritual. I even did an in-water massage in the Blue Lagoon which is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our days were made for rejuvenation of our skin and body, while nights consisted of indulging in freshly made dinners of local fish and vegetables. We even caught the Northern Lights on our first day…talk about lucky! But every morning I couldn’t wait to wake up and do it all over again….exploring new locations, creating iconic imagery with the Narciso Rodriguez team, and adventuring.
 
There was one morning where the team had a surprise, and drove us 4 hours out to an Icelandic glacier. It was a super bumpy ride with one stop at the amazing Faxi Waterfall. We held on tight as our giant wheels sped through thick pillows of snow. I think the best thing about traveling in Iceland is hopping in a car, going, and looking out the window. The views of the rocky land, cliffs, and ocean is absolutely breathtaking. By the time we reached our destination, we hopped on snow mobiles to our secret shoot location, which happened to be beside an adorable little igloo and a spectacular Pure Musc for Her ice sculpture. These are just moments where I go, wow. So much hard work and creativity has gone into this project launch. It’s unbelievable. I could of stayed out there all day in our heated little igoo, sipping on hot chocolate in my oversize snow jumpsuit. Purely perfect. 
 
As if things couldn’t get any better, the team and I met on the black sand beach, shooting with stunning white Icelandic ponies. They were so sweet and so gorgeous. We met here to have one last lunch get-together before everyone took their departures at the airport. I didn’t want to leave. I was actually so inspired by this work trip that I want to plan another time to return, rent a Jeep, and simply keep discovering. My camera in hand.
