On Thursday November 3rd the kids and I did a segment on GTU. A week or so previous Alicia Richmond had made a post on face book that she wanted families with teens to do a family photography fashion show. I have followed her for quite some time, I think she has a great sense of humor, and have thought how fun it would be to go shopping with her. So I signed us up and she choose us to model some clothes. So on Tuesday the 1st we headed up to South Town mall and shopped. It was fun, she knew exactly what she wanted. We would walk in a store and if something didn't catch her eye, we were on to the next store. She was so kind to me, as I have recently lost 20 lbs, she was putting me in clothes and telling me to go with the smaller one, as I'm still in the mind set previous to my weight loss. It was pretty cool to see the size's I fit into.
So on Thursday I kept the kids home from school as we needed to be there at 9:15. They were thrilled with this, as I NEVER keep them home for anything.
They had our clothes there ready for us when we arrived, we quickly changed and were able to be in the "promo" shot.
My clothes all came from Down East. I loved the pants, just wish they weren't bell bottoms, as I'm not into that :) I wasn't too hip on my "shiny" shirt, but the gray long sleeve underneath was great, as was the belt.
Deidra's came from Forever 21, they have great stuff there and their prices are awesome. She loved the shirt and pants, (which I need to go get as she needs those for her "hip hop" dance class to use in the recital.
Tiffany's came from JC Penny, we loved the whole outfit.
Kendra and Tyler's both all came from Children's Place. I loved Kendra's jacket, so did she. And I loved Tyler's green shirt, pants and shoes, and again, he liked these as well. He just wasn't digging the long sleeve button up, but that's OK.
We didn't get to keep the cloth's or even get a discount on them, but it was still a ton of fun.
This is Nicea, one of the host's on the show, she was darling.
After it was all over we changed and headed back to the real world.
If you really want to see the segment, here's a link.
