Material Girl

Hello Lovelies,

I hope all is well. So we're in the beginning days of November and the year is coming to a close. I have no idea where 2014 went but I can say I was blessed in so many ways and I cannot wait to see what 2015 has hidden under her sleeve. 

\

This " Outfit of the Day" is featuring my favorite material ......leather. I think I'm obsessed with leather because it speaks to a few different sides of me. It has sex appeal, but is still edgy and definitely screams confidence. Most of these pieces are faux  leather but genuine leather is expensive so I think it's great that faux leather pieces are available. It seems to have become even more popular than the real deal. If you like this look say tuned for the details listed below!

Always with love,

Press Posh Webisode 2....THE UNIFORM POLICY and HOW TO PREVENT THE BAD WEAR DAY

Hello My Luvs,

 It's been sooo long!I know you're probably saying to yourself, "She say's this between every post".  Well KOP is a busy girl but just now that I am always thinking of you all. 

I have had today's blog topic on my mind for the longest and I am so glad I finally got it out of my brain and on here for you to enjoy. Choosing a uniform is one of the most helpful fashion tips when trying to develop your fashion sense and keeping your closet consistent. So before you PRESS POSH, get yourself a pen and sheet of paper because your'e going to need it. Please excuse that I sound a little stuffy. I guess I'm coming down with the Fall season sniffles. 

Always with love,

KOP 

Introducing Press Posh .... Webisode 1 Fall Fashion and Style Collective Haul

Hello Lovelies,

It's been a little bit of a minute. I have to be completely honest. Fashion week completely kicked my butt. Trying to stay on top of your schedule, attend events at all hours of the day, and still be productive at work is no easy task. I was super exhausted and had to take a mini blog break BUT I am coming back with something super exciting!!!!!!

Today I am starting a new feature on the blog entitled Press Posh. This will be a collection of videos that you can find on here or YouTube where I discuss certain topics. A lot of the times I find myself wanting to share things with you guys but I feel as if  simply writing it won't effectively relay my message. I think actually getting on camera will help me better communicate some of my ideas, tips, and tricks. I hope you guys enjoy this new addition to the posh projeKt.

The video above is just of me showing a few of the things I picked up while shopping, to get me ready for Fall.....Which starts like tomorrow BTW. These are my basics. The basics we choose vary from person to person, depending on personal style. That's another topic I will also be touching on shortly. If there is any specific topic you would like me to do a video on just let me know through email, social media, or comment on a blog post. I love you all and stay tuned for some great fashion week recaps. Can we say COSTELLO!!!!In the mean time....don't forget to PRESS POSH.

Agent Provocateur Launch Event. AP Celebrates New Boutique and Fragrance "Fatale" at Saks Fifth Avenue Flagship

Welcome to September Ladies and Gentlemen,

For some this means the official end of summer and time to get back to real life, but for all the fashionistas in the world it brings the most important time of year....FASHION WEEK!!!! Editors,press, bloggers, buyers and of course stylists will be stomping the streets of New York City to get a glimpse of next season's fashion trends. There are fabulous events happening all around town and I'm going to try my best to tag you along.

Last night I had the pleasure of attending the launch event for Agent Provocateur's boutique within Saks Fifth Avenue, as well as their new fragrance "Fatale".  For those who are new to the brand, Agent Provocateur is a luxury lingerie line that has some of the most beautiful, sexy, yet classy undergarments ever created. They are frequently seen being worn by the hottest celebrities and can be found on the pages of the biggest fashion publications. In addition to their stand alone boutiques and online shop, you can now purchase their garments inside Saks Fifth Avenue. 

The event was super fun. Champagne and these delicious chocolate covered strawberries were passed all night. A photo booth  equipped with all types of kinky toys to pose with added a cool element to the party. Life like mannequins were posed throughout the space, adorned in intricate Agent Provocateur lingerie. And we can't forget the gift bags, stuffed with your own bottle of the product of the night....."Fatale". The energy was great but why it wouldn't be. We're all young, alive, and it's fashion week!

Stay tuned for more happenings guys. See you sooner than later.

 Good Morning Everyone,

 I hope you all have had an amazing week and I'm sure I'm not the only one excited it's Friday. I am so happy that I finally get to share this news with you!!!!! A few month's ago I was given the opportunity to work on set for WEtv series David Tutera's CELEBrations featuring rapper, Lil Kim to style her and her significant other Mr. Paper's, for their super royal baby shower. Production wanted all contributors to keep the details hush hush but today I can finally share my excitement and feelings of accomplishment with you guys. To make things even sweeter, the celebrity entertainment, fashion, and lifestyle site CottenKandi.com has done an amazing interview entitled Girl Boss: Meet Stylist Dara “King of Posh” Adams of K.O.P Styling, on me and my experience styling for a nationally syndicated television show. I think to be considered a #GirlBoss is completely an honor and I love the strides KOP Styling is making in the  industry.

Please tune in TONIGHT at 9PM SHARP to watch WEtv David Tutera's CELEBrations and let me know what you are thinking with #kopstyleslilkim. I am eager to hear your feedback. Don't forget to stay for the credits. You might see a name you know *wink wink*

So it's August and the summer is quickly coming to a close. Usually by this time I'm ready for Fall but for some reason this year I don't want the summer to go. I have been through a lot personally these last few months so I think the energy of summer served as a light in my life. It could also be because the Winter was absolutely dreadful and I never want to experience anything like that again. At least we have Fall fashion to look forward to.

While visiting my mom in Brooklyn I noticed her building opened this little garden area that I thought was so cute. The lighting was just right. It's kind of hard to find peace in Brooklyn so I really enjoyed hanging out with her in this little hide away.

Have a great week!
