    We are looking to add more pictures to our studio walls from past work and my work as a model. Digging through tons of past modeling books, bridal shoots, weddings etc is keeping us busy and entertained. All the traveling, early morning calls on the beach in the dark, 18 hour days are all memories that come rushing back. These pictures were taken by one of my favorite photographers Sixto, he created a very Fifties feel with the swim wear. I loved working with him he always had the best ideas.

    Being half Greek and half French you can see my love of Paris and Greece in my studio. Living in Athens, Greece while modeling I gained valuable insight on the culture, people and love of the country. Visiting the Greek Islands and drinking ouzo was an incredible experience as you can imagine. I look forward to revisiting this beautiful country next year.

    Greece, A Love Story is the perfect book for those who have been to Greece, or even for those who simply dream of someday making the pilgrimage. Anyone who picks up this heartfelt collection of essays will gain a better understanding of Greece and all its magical charm and appeal.

    Our Indian Bride Anar last weekend in Alabama a sneak preview from photographer Karen Wise www.karenwise.com

    Taking note from the Spring 2010 runway shows in New York City this past September healthy full eyebrows are all the rage for Spring 2010. Your eyebrows give your face the frame work to balance out your features, if you are sporting super thin brows (FBS is not a fan of the super thin) you are missing out on creating a look that is balanced and bone structure appropriate for your unique features. I like to fill in brows with pencil and groom them with either a clear brow gel or colored gel. Below are some examples of polished brows.

    Woke up this morning dreaming of Paris in black and white….the fresh pastries, coffee, fashion and the sweet smell of the city. There is nothing like walking around the city in super sexy black and white stilettos.

    We were honored to be a part of Dale and Anar’s Hindu wedding festivities this past weekend in Birmingham, Alabama. Brittney (one of our National Stylists) and I packed our kits and were off to the southern State of Alabama. Their wedding took place at the Marriott Renaissance Ross Bridge Golf Resort and Spa http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/bhmhv-renaissance-ross-bridge-golf-resort-and-spa/ a beautiful property that gave a bit of Southern charm. It was amazing to see the leaves changing and have the cool crisp air hit our faces each time we walked outside. Each time we got into the car we were waiting for “Sweet Home Alabama” to play on the radio but instead we sang it ourselves, not the best but it made us laugh. 

    For Anar, Brittney created a very red carpet loose a la Eva Longoria bun with Stavorski crystals placed in the hair to create definition. For the ceremony makeup I created a wash of gold and pink lined with a medium thick black liquid liner with full lashes. Anar was not a huge blush girl so we added a bit of sheen to her cheeks to create contrast and that “dewy look”.  For the reception we were able to really create some drama for our bride. We added hair extensions and deep purple hues to her eyes with a nude lip. We were impressed with Anar’s wedding shoe indecisiveness; she bought 3 Christian Louboutin http://www.christianlouboutin.com  shoes not knowing which ones she should wear! We LOVE that! The photographer was Karen Wise http://karenwise.com  we can’t wait to see her photos. We have posted below the pictures we took this past weekend keep checking back to see the real photos from Karen Wise. Congratulations Dale and Anar!
