These cats are fierce! I was soo inspired by this whole show. Cat make up and hair. So was Melody Ehsani ! I tried to recreate a cat/bow with synthetic hair last minute with whatever I had in my kit ( tip: be prepared in all situations), for her Final Frontier Lookbook 2009.

Epiphany Media llc called me awhile back to help them out with their party at The London Hotel to Launch Tag Body Spray Signature Series. Again, They never do anything half ass, They had us paint 6 girls all Metallic with TAG stenciled all around their body, The metallic hair didn’t turn out how we wanted so stylist, Mariel Haenn worked her magic and got the wigs there just in time, the models were walking out the door to go to the roof top. She is amazing!
But LADY ART couldn’t have done it without our AMAZING assistants Cherlyn Mae Farol , Kristina Negrete, Lisa Young, and my sister Tara Arrieta. Thank You girls so much for your hard work!

Back to the real world. Monday already and I cant seem to get my mind to work mode.
I hope everyone had a blast during this 4th of July weekend!
Well, Alana and I were grateful to be a part of SoBe Life Water 4th of July pool party at the Shangri La in Santa Monica. It was an amazing experience! I did not know what we were getting into but basically it was 8 SoBe pin up girls, both hair and makeup done in 1 hour and 45 minutes! We busted that out. It was great. Sky cleared right on time! Beautiful sun decided to smile. Chillin by the poolside getting a nice tan on, with some SoBe Life water spiked with a little vodka
Here are just some pictures of our work
Some of the guest list was: Melody Ehsani, Natalie Jungle Gurl, Adam Gregory, Andy Samberg, Rashida Jones, Akiva Schaffer, Benji Madden, Joel Madden, Kevin Connolly, Jessica Stroup, Dustin Milligan, Brittany Snow, Josh Henderson and Jason Trawick
SoBe Lifewater 4th of July event sponsored by Belvedere and EA Games.
by the way: 0 calories!!!
Soon after, we rushed to continue the party with loved ones.
bbq pool party fireworks on rotation…
We would love to hear what crazy or relaxing events you guys had
