Spring Editorial Photo Shoot

photo-5.JPG

Hello Gorgeous!!!!

I hope everyone is enjoying the beautiful weather out ( I know I am!) Wish it was as nice as it is today last Friday, when EngieStyle was styling for a photo shoot on the beach. So, let me tell you a little bit about the shoot. It was for a magazine (I can't tell you which one just yet), editorial spread for their March issue.

Let's not forget this is a week after the snow storm happened in New York and Jersey area. You have an idea now how cold it was on a beach that day. On the other hand, orange shirt, peach color dress, gorgeous red gown, and color of the sky dress, kept our hearts warm and helped us to enjoy every moment of it.

As you may know, I'm pretty new to EngieStyle and this was my first experience on set of a photo shoot. Some might say, how can you enjoy being out on the cold all day? My answer would be, seeing Engie styling the models and implementing her and the photographer's idea into life, brings satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment.

We had two gorgeous models working with us, who were real troopers trying on outfits and making it seem like it's 90 degrees outside when in reality it was 40 degrees! One of the outfits that I absolutely loved was orange with red sheer shirts, that Engie combined with bright and very chic/glamorous earrings. I am sure after you see behind the scene pictures, your anticipation of spring will be unbearable... in a good way of course! Things you do for fashion. :)

"March and September issues are magazines biggest. When I'm styling for fashion spreads I usually pay very close attention to accessories and make sure I emphasis on the accent of the jewelry in order to make my vision clear of the style concept and vision. Jewelry plays a big part in my styling techniques, I'm a strong believer it can change your whole look and make the attire owned by you." - Engie

Happy Halloween!

Engie.jpeg

Hey Fashionistas!

Have you seen our own Black Swan, Engie Hassan?

She looked stunning at EngieStyle Halloween Event. EngieStyle worked together with Women's Mafia, Dynamic Outdoors and Dr.Nadia M. to organize a Halloween Spectacular to support Girls Educational and Mentoring Services. The night was full of surprises especially when we saw a duo of Engie and Nancy as Black and White Swan. Engie also was appointed as a judge for the best costume : The Most Creative, The Scariest, The Best Couple. The beautiful fairy in a blue costume, that seems to bring everything together, is a co-founder of Women's Mafia, Marcy Clark. The Event took place in a beautiful Skyroom Hotel with great upbeat music, full of great audience who came out to support a great cause and enjoy a great a atmosphere.

Engie's Latest Events!

IMG_2479.JPG

Hello everyone!

My name is Inna. If you guys haven't seen me around yet, it's because I just started working for EngieStyle and let me tell you, it's only been 2 months, but it felt like home from the first day.

Yesterday, EngieStyle was collaborating with Carlisle Showroom in organization of Fall/Holiday 2011 Fashion collection preview. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and 13-year partnership with Susan G. Komen for the cure. The event was full of great atmosphere and women who love fashion. Engie Hassan demonstrated holiday picks and helped style the fashion pieces together. It was a great event with an even greater cause filled with fun, fashion, and networking.

Meet Jacqui!

300479_2005585742665_1334280089_31868736_1961415028_n.jpg

Hello WONDERFUL people of the fashion world!

You probably have been seeing my XxJacqui around EngieStyle for the past few days and wondering who is this girl? Well here I am deciding to so a proper introduction.

My name is Jacqui Murray and I am an assistant and Associate Fashion Stylist to Engie Hassan. I have worked with her for about 2 months now and it has been an amazing journey. About 2 weeks after I started, it was the crazy time of the year. No not Christmas, but my Christmas FASHION WEEK! I was thrown into the craziness but it was amazing! I got to go to 4 shows a day!

In these past 2 months, I have learned a lot. I learned that at a photo shoot you have to be up by 4a.m. but it is all worth it when you see your styling in pictures. I learned how to pull and to contact. I hope I have many more experiences like this with EngieStyle!

Don't worry folks this wont be the last time you're hearing from me =]

It's time for Selena to blow out nineteen candles!

Today is Selena Gomez's 19th, birthday, so we're celebrating in style with a look at our top five favorite outfits from the fashionable starlet!

#5 look, first pic.jpg

5. We LOVE the sleek, purple minidress that Selena wore to the Never Say Never premiere! Paired with her adorable silver pumps and subtle clutch, the outfit was to die for! We bet Justin Bieber totally loved it!

#4 look, second pic.jpg

4. At the Kid's Choice Awards, Selena kept it playful and simple with white shorts and a super pretty, flowy top! It was the perfect choice for the "Orange" carpet!

#3 look, middle pic.jpg

3. For the Monte Carlo premiere, she wore an elegant, periwinkle gown with just the right amount of sparkle! The dress made her look sophisticated and mature, which was totally appropriate for her first starring role!

#2 look, fourth pic.jpg

2. When Selena hosted the Much Music Awards, she had tons of amazing outfits, but our fave was this white lace dress with super cool beading! The dress was so flattering and really made her shine on stage!

#1look, last pic.jpg

1. At the Grammy's, Selena rocked a floor-lenghth, golden gown, and all eyes were definitely on her that night! Her dark, flowing hair looked perfect against the light gold shade and she looked like a total star!

Have an amazing day Selena, and we can't wait to see what fabulous outfits the next year will bring!
