I attended
Fro Fashion Week as a Lead Press Supporter V.I.P. and I felt like a movie star! I arrived in my traveling clothes without make-up but Tarin Boone knew who I was, ME???? She's such a great organizer. I was given my all access tote, button and welcome to the event...but that's not it...I was given
a Golden Ticket to the V.I.P. gifting suite! I told you I felt like a movie star!
V.I.P. status also afforded me access to an exclusive reception for the Penthouse Party but more importantly a chance to meet with representatives from the great brands that attended the event. It wasnt just a hand shake but a chance to truly meet, network and discuss things that my readers are looking for and hoping to discover. I spoke with Brands that I was familiar with like
Jessicurl,
Shea Moisture &
Curls; brands that I rediscovered like
Design Essential (Natural line) & Organic Root Stimulator new line
Curls Unleashed; and new brands like
CoCo Curls,
Mozeke &
Beautiful Textures.
I was amazed at the amount of great products that I left the event with and the truly amazing company owners & representatives that I met.
Fro Fashion Week is one of the best events I have attended for networking with an intimate appeal. Small businesses have a truly remarkable opportunity to go straight to the consumer, bloggers get to build relationships with companies by putting a face to the review and larger companies get a chance to revamp themselves with a direct and immediate impact.
It is a must attend event! Below are some pictures of the Brands & Owners I had the pleasure of meeting. Check them out & support them!
