I worked with Chloe of Skeleton Key Photography for the Holiday/Winter Line and we got together for a special shoot at ReBar in New Jersey. Was stoked to have model/mua Amanda Grande strike a pose and she's like a combo of Angelina and Kat Dennings. We also had friends come out to provide background support and it turned into one big party. All clothing Sibyl Vain.

Sibyl Vain at The SFX Party

The whole group! Me and all the lovely models that rocked the new collection at The SFX Party in NYC at R Bar. So gorgeous.

And if you want more info on these gorgeous ladies, check out the fanpage and links are all around.

What also blew me away for the night was the stellar make-up by DiscoMakeupAire and...OMG. Amelia of A is for Arsenic did the most amazing pin-up hair and lent out jewelry for the night. STUNNING!
It was such a party and everyone had so much fun. It was probably the smoothest shows I've done. Usually I'm running around and going nuts, but this one ran like clockwork. Which made me a little nervous something bad was going to happen, but I think the worst was that I went home before 2am.

Cake Boss and Who?
Earlier this month, I got to be the designer for a fashion show put on by Mika of Sugar & Spikes Casting and Kitty Crystal the Tattoed Artist.
Look! That's them!
It was a crazy day because we got hit with a bad snow storm and made driving not fun, but cake waits for no man! Funny thing, the original filming date was supposed to be on a day when we also got a big storm.
It was rush rush time fitting models and being selfish so I could get my hair and makeup done, haha. It was intense watching Kitty do the special effects makeup on the models. They got 'Walking Dead-afied.' And what was also just amazing was that Ashley from Cake Boss/Next Great Baker was a model for me. Whoa.
Once production gave us a 20 minute heads up, I started freaking out. We walked over to an unconventional runway and waited for the cue. The audience was not disappointed by the models and did I mention the most amazing cake that was brought? Can't tell you about it except that Mika and Kitty had a big part in it!
Not too sure when the episode will air - I think after the summer. Sucks waiting, but gives more time to plan a huge viewing party!

Queen of the Jungle...Long Overdue Recap

Back in January, on a freezing night, Brooklyn Wildlife and La Bella Roma transformed a small NYC lounge into the jungle! I was asked by Mika of Sugar & Spikes to provide clothing for the fashion show part of the night. Alongside killer make-up artists (Devin Dollface Alexis, Crystal Cakeface) and hair stylists (Gloria Espinoza), we made these girls show their animalistic side with Mika taming them as they made their walk into the crowd. (I've forgotten some names, let me know if you see who I've forgotten)
It was a fun night and the main event was a beauty pageant between burlesque performers and drag queens! Too many beautiful ladies all around.
Afterwards, me, my sister and her good friend hit up Otto's Shrunken Head in NYC and got glow in the dark drinks and danced to doo-wop. And of course, ended the evening with disco fries at the nearby diner. You can catch those adventures on my Instagram - SibylVain
Photos from the event! Above image and some more by Maeghan Donohue. Models: Sophia, Bec (she also did makeup), Nattestid Maeva, Nyx

Cynical Fashion Magazine Issue #1

I've worked quite a bit with mua Brittany Diaz and her main photographer, Madness Photography. They have been turning out images like crazy and doing big things, so it's only natural a magazine would follow.
Cynical Fashion Magazine will be released April 1st and I was so flattered to be asked to provide wardrobe for their first cover and for an editorial. Even more stoked that the featured model would be Allison Goldfire. Whoa.
Make sure you check it out and for more updates, add the Sibyl Vain Facebook

Tattoo Glamour
Here's a couple images from a shoot I provided some wardrobe on. Orchestrated by make-up extraordinaire, Brittany Diaz and photographer Madness Photography, the shoot was going to be on the glam side of things.
The make up was to die for and Chazy of Madness Photography captured the models beautifully. The girls were Jinxi Jey, Karma Kitty Mariko and Tina HeartThrob and oh yes...there was a male model on hand - J Michael Kent - but you have to go to Madness's site to see how he fell into the story.
Pretty and badass? Quite so.

Ab Fab!
Towards the end of the summer I had been asked by mua Brittany Diaz to be on set for a shoot with British photographer, Jon Russell Green.
We had done two days of shooting - the first was kind of crazy, but these really fun laundromat explosion images came from it. Our model for this set was Lauren, who is absolutely gorgeous!
The second day, we shot at a bubble tea shop called Something Sweet and I overdosed on bubble tea and cupcakes. Our models on day two were Heather Ann and BlackLite Bonnie. So great working with these girls.
The models looked so sweet and cute in the shop and then we edged them out for outside shots. What's awesome is the flag mural we shot against was seen in one episode of VH1's Big Ang when they took aeial shots of Staten Island. We kept joking how they should channel the ladies of 'Ab Fab.'
Here's some of the photos from this shoot and I have more on the website. All clothing is Sibyl Vain. Yay!

OMG. Inglot.
If you're looking for a REAL make-up blog with TONS of reviews and just awesomeness...check out:
Confession of a Cosmeholic
And if anyone knows make-up, it's this lovely lady.
But if you're just looking to hear my random make-up buys, read below.
INGLOT. How did I not know this brand was awesome? I thought their products were expensive, but not at all. When I went, the circle eyeshadows were 40% off, so it was like $8 each, which is a steal.
But I bought lip stuff and am IN LOVE with the lipstick. The Red #229 is exactly what I've been looking for - classic red, with a shine and a pink/purple undertone. The fragrance is wonderful too. Same for my second buy, AMC Lipgloss #543. This is THE COOLEST thing ever. It's holographic. Yes, I know. I can't wait to use it on top of a lipstick and it gives your lips such a shine. I imagine this works at a photoshoot like insanity.
Here are better images:
