I thought I would check in with everyone and say how I siked I was in regards to my very first Fashion Week experience! Today I saw Christos' new line of waist jewelry! Of course we think about adorning our necks but how about making some pizzaz for our waists as well. Many of these items had amazing embellishments, fur and much more. Definitely something that was unique. In addition to the pieces, the girls chosen to wear these items were as radiant as the pieces. When I have all the pics, I will post some on the site and let you guys check it out for yourselves.
This was the first of many collaborations between Kitten and Big Apple Style. It was interesting when we took pictures at Bryant Park - how other photographers came by to see who we were and what we were up to! So of course she explained that she was the Editor of her magazine and that I was the founder and designer of Kitten and of course people thought that we were twins; however, they had to be satisfied with the fact that we are only sisters.
Just being there definitely got me thinking about September's Fashion Week and elements of the new line that will be introduced for Spring/Summer 2006. I am also beginning to have an open call for models for future shows, photoshoots and much more so definitely feel free to email me in regards to what you would like to do. If you want to hang out in person, come to the Big Six on Friday nights - 8:00 - 11:00pm on 97 Bowery! Not only is there great music and our friendly bartender Hara but you will be able to network with many people that are looking to meet other people in the city while also getting a chance to get to know me as well.
I can't believe how fast this month is going but we are that much closer to the summer which is always fine by me!
Much Love
Kimmie

Spreadin' the Love
I am super siked about recent developments with Kitten! The prototypes look great with a lot of the designs that will be released this spring/summer. I promised some pics but they can't be released just yet but know that they are hot and you will definitely want to snatch them up!
On the personal front, can you believe that it is almost Valentine's Day? It seems like the year is already zipping by and we have barely begun. I love this time of year - right now it's not too chilly, the magazines are already showing summer sneak peaks and you don't mind leaving your house to go out and about. I am setting up this year's Valentine's extravaganza for my boyfriend and I and am still deciding between the details. If anyone can help me in regards to awesome spas or restaurants in NYC, it would be much appreciated.
Feel free to stop by and say hello whether you are coming from Blogger or whether you are coming from my site at Sikara. Also, does anyone know how we can create a link page on this site??? I would love to add links of my favorite blogs or something of that nature. As promised, I am going to make more of an effort to write more - it could be purely random or it could be something that's really interesting. For those of you out there that love good reading, I have a great site that I would love to tell you about so once I figure out the links I will make that list available so you guys can read this amazing online novel!!
Much Love

New Effort ....
Ok,
So I am definitely making a new effort to write more frequently within this. It helps since I have a lot more going on and I welcome any comments that you guys may have out there. So the first huge thing is for those of you that may not be aware, I launched my fashion line Kitten, 'resort inspired activewear embellished with Swarovski Crystals for those who wish to run errands, brunch with the girls and to go out on a night on the town'. I did this in a big way by producing and hosting the Kitten & Co Fashion Show and Kitten After Party on 09.14.04 @ Azaza during Fashion Week in NYC. It was amazing to see people from all over the music industry attending the event and spreading the love!
The thing about doing a major event is that after all the planning you feel like at the conclusion you are at a loss for what to do next. I followed up my event with a breast cancer event 'Fight for Pink' @ Mission in Oct, that showcased my line and had amazing musical talent from Universal Records (and yes I organized this event as well).
So this kind of brings me to currently what I am up to ... Kitten will be featured in the 'Fete de L'Amour' Fashion Show at Monmouth University in NJ later on this month. This is awesome because I will be showing Kitten with many new items such as the Diva Collection and also handbags which is something very new for me.
In March I will be providing a set entitled 'Adored by Kitten' for the Israel Humanitarian Foundation which is a Spring Fashion Show that will be held at Avalon in NYC! My items will share the same space as Isaac Mizrahi, Marc Jacobs and more on the runway which is very big for an indie designer!
Of course as my news continues to grow, I have signed on for a Fashion Trunk Show in Philly in May that will allow me to increase my base outside of the city! Once again huge and I'm super siked about this. So that's the new info regarding Kitten.
Over the past few months, people wondered where they could hang out with me and now I have a home of sorts at the Big Six every Fri night from 8:00pm - 11:00pm on 97 Bowery. This is intended as a networking event for those that wish to meet other people in the city and since I am the hostess, I encourage people that are models, designers and photographers and more to come out because it's a great way to meet others in your industry. Also, I am in the process of organizing my photo shoot for new items coming out and although I love posting on Craigslist, I would love to meet you guys in person to put the name, face and personality together. Speaking of that, I did obtain a spokesmodel for 2005, Dorian a fellow model and singer/songwriter who will be in Lucky Magazine later this year and a lot of you will get to know her as well.
On the personal front, I am still modeling here and there and have done some TV stuff which was fun and as the months go on, I can't wait to let you in on somethings that are in the works. Until then, I encourage you guys to continue to visit my site, sign up for the newsletters and I just obtained a new address book online which I think will be really nice to keep info for those designers and models that are interested! If you have a question, let me know and send some love my way too.
Much Love

One More Thing!!!
There will be pics within the next blogs which I'm siked about so don't fret about not seeing anything on my blog just yet. I thought I would add that as a side note.
Finally, the Kitten Lounge started its new season so you will hear the best of alternative rock, r&b and much much more. We will be covering a lot of great bands and attending the venues - you can also check out various shows that are in the NYC area by visiting the main website. As you know, the Kitten Lounge merges the best in fashion and entertainment. Make sure you check out first Wed's to hear from our contributing Style Guru, Dori, from Big Apple Style. In March, she will be recapping on her experiences during Feb's Fashion Week and other information.
Much Love,
Kimmie
