Welcome to my life as fashion

I'm Summer Edwards. I'm a twenty-something year old chick with a lot on my plate. A friend of mine says I'm a super hero! Ha ha! I work in an office (my Clark Kent/Peter Parker image, if you will) I also do hair and makeup for photo shoots, fashion shows, and events. In addition to that, I launched a fashion line. I also talk a lot about a nutrition company because their products make me feel AWESOME!!!! I'm a jack of all trades and I like to stay busy. If it relates to the fashion industry in any way, I'm interested in it!

Welcome to My World!

Hello to all!

Im Summer Edwards. I live for the modeling industry! It drives me in so many ways. I grew up surrounded by it and it has shaped me as a person. At this point, I am familiar with every aspect of the industry accept taking the pictures! lol. My brain goes all wonky when people start talking about light settings and F settings.

I do play several roles when it comes to fashion and modeling. I work as a makeup artist and hair stylist in Austin TX. I get hired as a creative director for photo shoots and I am 1/2 of a design team for Alien Shrimp Designs. I  work closely with a nutrition consultant from Advocare and from time to time i can be seen in front of the camera or on a runway as a model. I have been called a jack of all trades and an asset to the fashion industry within Austin.

I am using this blog to share thoughts and details about upcoming events within my world of fashion. I hope you find these entries enjoyable and entertaining.

Thanks for stopping by!

~Summer
