I was beyond thrilled with how the models looked in their head-to-toe styled looks. So glamorous. Between the hair & makeup by Fresh Beauty Studio and wardrobe styling by LIVE-COUTURE the looks were perfection. Dressing clients for special occasions such as black tie galas & weddings is something LC specializes in and this is a great representation of what we do.

Beauty hot spot in east Fort Lauderdale Fresh Beauty Studio was selected to be featured on the NBC morning show LIVE MIAMI at 11. The focus of the segment was on celebrity inspired current red carpet looks and to give viewers simple tips on recreating the looks at home. Naturally, owner of FBS Nikol Johnson reached out to LIVE-COUTURE to wardrobe style the segment. It was a great collaboration.

LIVE-COUTURE pulled gorgeous gowns from Saks Fifth Avenue at Bal Harbour Shops to dress Johnson and the models.

FASHION: Christian Louboutin – a Patient Man

admin — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 04:45:51 +0000

Christian Louboutin signed hundreds of his coveted pieces for customers and took pride in each & everyone one of his autographs. Sharpie was his autograph weapon of choice with his “c louboutin” mostly signed in black with splashes of color highlighting certain letters. It was inspiring to see a man with that level of professional success putting such care in the details. ♥ and admire that.

Christian Louboutin was at Bal Harbour Shops Saks Fifth Ave celebrating his 20th Anniversary with his capsule collection of shoes and bags. Along with signing the soles of his shoes for customers who purchased that day he also signed a few of his bags. This was my favorite piece he signed!

FASHION: Bravo Real Housewives of Miami – Adriana

admin — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 05:41:47 +0000

At the end of Etro fashion show at Soho Beach House I went to check out the pieces up close. As I was thumbing through the dresses, I noticed another outfit I liked and it was on the girl next to me. After I complimented her on her cool outfit I realized that she looked awfully familiar and then it hit me – Bravo house wife! We happened to be in the elevator at the same time and decided to snap a quick pic when we got out. In our brief encounter Adriana said two things that stood out. One, “I like your jacket” (love that) and two, “look out for season 2 on Bravo!” Will do Adriana.

FASHION: Manolo Blahnik – President George Malkemus

On a shopping trip to Bal Habour shops, I met the President of Manolo Blahnik, George Malkemus. While in town, Malkemus was meeting Manolo customers and promoting the new collection. Something unique that was being offered was the opportunity to design your own Manolo Blahnik. Customers could choose a shoe style and customize it to their specific desires. From the exotic leather of your choice, to heel height, Malkemus explained how each detail was completely up to you. Now that’s luxury taken up a notch.
