New Up & Coming Artist: Evin Elliot

Greetings everyone....I have had the opportunity to meet many artist and some are "OK" and some are "Amazing"...A new artist that's about to stir things up in Philly is the ever sexy Evin Elliott.

He is coming onto the scene pretty new but coming on strong with several singles he has on a Demo/Mix tape "Memoirs of a Bachelor" that will be dropping March 11th, 2010. He is young but has the soul and charisma to carry him through. He loves a good slow jam to make the ladies squirm in their seats...lol

Here is a short portion of the interview...a lil background on Evin Elliott:

Sheshe: Hello Evin, Glad we could sit and chat today.

Evin Elliott: Hey, thank you for having me.

SS: So lets get the preliminaries outta the way... How old are you? And are you single?

EE: I'm 24 years young but have the soul of someone much older and wiser, so I been told. And currently I am single but definitely looking for "The One"...aren't we all? (Smile)

SS: And when did you start singing?

EE: I started singing at age 5, and continued throughout my life in church, talent shows and karaoke...Wherever there was a mic I was on it. (haha)

SS: Tell me about your family? Siblings? Parents?

EE: Well, Sheila, I'm the youngest of 4 and all of us have names that start with an "E". Eric, Elita and Erica. My siblings are much older so it was like growing up an only child but with a 2nd set of parents. My parents have been happily married for 34years and counting..now that's what I call that back in the day love!

SS: Who encouraged you as a young black kid/man growing up in Philadelphia? Philly is a hard city to grow up in as a young black male.

EE: My friends and family always encouraged me to be true to myself and what it is that I love to do, which is to entertain and make others feel good.. even for just one nite. I cant name one person who has been around me and hasn't felt my magnetic personality and left smiling.

SS: Who are some of your favorite singers?

EE: Teddy Pendagrass, Barry White,Jodeci, Michael Jackson, Usher and Ryan Leslie

SS: Evin, tell me your dreams of the future?

EE: My dream is to become a Star and to be a role model for young black men. Show them with hard work, determination and belief that they too can do anything they set their minds to. I want them to know that they can be born into an urban environment and still be Well-mannered, Classy and Street-smart.

SS: Evin Elliott, thank you so much for taking the time to sit with me today and I just know that with you mind set on the future you will accomplish your goals to be a Star!

NY Mercedes-Benz Fashion week 2010

Ok, Can we speak about this AMAZING young lady named Cecilia Cassini? She is The youngest Fashion designer and she showed up with her mom Michelle Cassini at NY Fashion week. She rolled in with camera crews and the most adorable sequined shorts and big colorful bow on her head and some hot shades (to shield from the Paparazzi of course) that screamed "Im a star"! And she is! I spoke to her mom michelle and she said her daughter started sewing at age 6....WHAT! I cant sew now and my mom sews quilts by hand.. Ugh.. thats a gift I tell you! Cecilia worked the cameras to her advantage and she was a pro when it came to interviews. She is a natural Diva (in a good way) that we will be seeing soo much more of.


Take a moment to check out her website www.ceciliacassini.com


Plenty of info about this budding young designer and ways to order for your own kids. I think her line is whimsical and age appropreicate and I think its what 5th graders are looking to wear without being too grown up. I love it!

Great job Cecilia, I hope to see you again at the next Fashion week in 6mos!

NY Mercedes-Benz Fashion week 2010

So me and my lovely girls (Angela, Jovi, Sara, Me and Rika) attended the last NY Mercedes-Benz Fashion week in Bryant park. I can't believe it is over. Bryant park has been the end all be all of so much fashion and style. So many great shows have been seen in the Big White tents. Bryant Park will be missed. We hope Lincoln center will be able to hold up the Style and Glamour of what fashion week is all about.

I was able to attend the Tony Cohen Show.. and it was wonderful. that man has talent! So many women have worn his designs: Ciara, Angela Simmons, Singer Jadyn maria and many more. His show was eclectic, Free Flowing and Sparkly. The tights were to die for and I want some asap!

Tony Cohen was born in the Netherlands, Amsterdam. he found his love for fashion thru his grandmother who sold second hand vintage clothes. Some of these pieces tony still has in his archive.

This and the fact that his father worked in ladies fashion for 40yrs , it was in inevitable that he too, would work in ladies fashion and we the ladies Thank you Tony!
