BLONDER AMBITIONS’ FASHION SESSION AT TONIC DAYCLUB

I love fashion shows. They’re essentially a grown woman’s version of playing dress-up. I had the opportunity to style & produce a fashion show (and I also got to do the makeup!) a couple of weeks ago. The event was held at Tonic in Santa Barbara. All bikinis were one-of-a-kind and custom designed by Ali Sea Bikinis. The clothing was furnished by Adktd Lifestyle. The hair was created by Salon Patine. The videography was done by Jason Gagne of Brooklyn West Films.

It was such an incredible day. I wish I could relive it over and over again. Thanks to the phenomenal footage provided by Brooklyn West Films & the sensational photography of Christian Harris and my oh-so-talented mother, Valerie, I have the opportunity to revisit the day as much as I like. And so do you.

Please take a moment to look at the videos below. The first is coverage of the show by Brooklyn West Films and the second video (*scroll down below the first video and a few photos) is a quick (15 second!) photo recap of the day.

HAPPY JULY

July. One of my favorite words. One of my favorite seasons. July represents summer… Full of adventure, salt water, and welcome recklessness… fireworks and bikinis and delicious laziness. Bring on the summer nights in Santa Barbara… I’m more than ready to temporarily abandon the illusion of maturity and the constraints of responsibility… it is July, after all.

2.5 MILLION PAGE VIEWS!

I’ve always been a firm believer in celebrating the little things… the seemingly mundane, day-to-day moments become epic mini-celebrations in my mind… hitting 2.5 million page views is one of those milestones that may not seem monumental to all, but it is mind-blowing to me… So, today, I shall take a moment to be still, smile, and quietly celebrate. Thank you, to each of you, for helping make Blonder Ambitions what it is today; I couldn’t do any of it without you. xoxo, Kiki E
