first coast fashion week

I can not wait for the premier of FCFW! “

Kristen Ballentine with photographer Alden Miranda

Just a few pieces from the fall line/brown.

Unfortunately my line  reused will no long be available in The Letter Shop.  It will not stop me from sewing and keeping the dream alive in Jacksonville.  I have big plans for the future of reused.  Possible retail space in the heart of downtown.  We will broaden our horizon,  we will open a million new doors,  and  close a few.  I’m ready for this exciting new step my business is about to take.  If you bare with me and still support me,  your sweet asses can help make this come true.  Love you bitches!

These photos are from the movie Melody Grove. I did the robes for them, and currently working on vests.  Photography provided by eyecu photography.

What a great skirt. For sale at The Letter Shop 18 bucks with pockets small.

I made these robes for my friend Nahum, he is producing some sort of ninja movie, and asked me to sew the outfits.  When I found out the title I will post everything up! These were super fun to make and to play in.  They would make a great Halloween costume.  I could be a ninja, monk, ghost, Jesus, or the KKK. Very versatile.

Hey guys!  The relay for life show was by far my favorite fashion show I’ve ever been apart of! It was such a wonderful event, by the end of the night I was almost in tears and so thankful to be apart of it.  It was super stressful at first but in the end it all came together. My models were beautiful as always and composed themselves very lady like! We raised over $1500 with all proceeds going to the American Cancer Society.  Sarah Dial and Heather Porterfield did an outstanding job putting this all together.  I must not forget the photographers,  catching different angels from all over the room,   they were super sweet and very easy to get along with and work with.  Shout out to Araceli Diaz, (aracelidiaz.com)  Kristina Ransom ( kristinaransome.com) Brandi Tolliver ( branditphotgraphy.com). Thanks ladies you did an awesome job. I can’t wait to see all the pictures, but here is a few I got already. Hope you enjoy.

Models consisted of Candice Kropfeld, Evadne Ramdass, Angela Lugo, Taylor Finley,  Kristen Ballentine, Brittany Ann, Kelly Manning, and  Alicia Bertine Jewelry provided by Laura Staley.

I am participating in this wonderful event.  This is dedicated to all my survivors and the ones struggling to survive.  Please follow the link to the event if you would like to come.  I have nine new pieces to be put on the runway. Starting with rompers, then spring dress collection and then party dress collection.
