After the show its the After Party! ( Said in my best Hovito Voice)
So I have my invites in place. I get an extra early one from some people who appear on our WE HEART list. They were hyping it, come party with us. SIDEBAR: When time permits, they will be removed from our list because we don't mess with them any more!
Ok cool. I mean, I really like their work. They were even hitting me up about possibly working with them. But I told them I would have to holla at them a little later due to my current gig.
So it's party time! All week, Classic and I double checked to make sure the RSVP list was comp all night...of course it is, said people on not one but two different days. Classic and I get ready...Glam could not make an appearance, she had to pass through some where else...We are, as always, funky fresh dressed to impress ready to party!!!! We make our way to the city around 12..I mean the party started at 10, who goes at 10?! Oh, maybe the dj...lmao!
We get to the location, we catch some compliments from people walking towards us( that means away from the club) and when we get up to the line Classic looks at me like...this is suppose to be a fashionable, dope party? We look overdressed! ( And no people, we didnt have on our best Valentino gown and highest Choo's). We kept it....DOT STYLE!!! Dressed so the haters have something to do. And we kept it so light: jeans, shirt, killer heels and cute bag....Wipe us down!!!!!
We approach the "velvet rope"...
Stringy Black Hair Girl: Who are you here for?
Girl Who Is Dressed Like A LookBook Pic: Names?
Sequin: ________Mag; Sequin Dot
GWIDLALBP: (looks me up and down) you can stand over here
** a few moments pass by and Classic and I realize that there is NO ONE waiting to go in...So why the hell are we standing in what Classic described as an outside holding cell.**
Sequin to SBHG: Um excuse me, is there a problem? Is the line really crazy inside or something because we are the only one's waiting.
SBHG: (while still looking at her phone) Oh, yeah it is and there's a $10 cover.
Sequin: Even with the rsvp? I was told something different today.
SBHG: Yeah even with the rsvp, that was good until...11. So yeah its a $10 cover.
Then the biotch walked away! Now the 10 bucks was not a problem. Their attitudes....yeah that was a problem. These chicks were just rude for no reason at all. Hey...YOU invited ME!!!! I didn't beg you to let me come to your party!!!
As you can imagine, Classic and I dipped on these broads. Especially after the mob of, lets say you had to be there to understand, people showed up.
You never know who someone is or who they know. It's so funny that these people literally contacted me a few weeks ago and because Sequin is a universal name, they have no idea who I am. Not saying that the whole thing that night was a race thing, it just was about dope people such as Classic, myself and shortie we saw walking away from the spot being discriminated against because you may not get us!
The funny thing is that I used to think that the world of fashion was soooo big. But I learn everday that it is smaller than you think. Meaning, I will cross paths with these chicks again. Being yet another email they send me, another invite, or just by me continuing to make my mark in this industry. They will see me again and oh will I have such a funny story to tell them about themselves!
I'm out...I have more shows to attend and way better parties!
Peace - 2 fingers you snoody biotches!
PS: Tell your"fashionista diares" intern, as Classic referred to her as, that it is cute to rock designers that not everyone is up on! BUT it is not cute to dress up like their manequin in their online look book. Tisk, tisk and I thought you girls were supposed to have style! A ha! ( My Best Jadakiss laugh)
