Filming was a lot of fun, and I helped style the girls for the shoot.  I’ve been friends with the guys in Claire Hux for a while now and love working with them!

You can become a fan of Claire Hux on their Facebook Page.

And FYI, Claire Hux is named after Claire Huxtable of the Cosby Show, a very classy and sassy woman indeed!

The video involves a bunch of girls auditioning for a role, with the members of Claire Hux, Symbol and Daren, picking the talent.  I helped style and dress the girls for the shoot, and was in it myself!

I’m not going to give anything else away, but check out the pics from the shoot here!

That’s me! In Natty Paint!

Check out the green screen!

I’ll be sure to post the video on here when it’s done!

So, after the show, I ended up going backstage and meeting La Roux!  Elly and Mickey loved the clothes, and we got some great pics together.

Here’s a pic of Mickey signing an adoring fan’s shoe while wearing a Natty Paint vintage blazer with our dragon design!

And here’s a pic of Elly and me hanging out in the dressing room.

Everyone was very chill and down to earth, which was incredibly refreshing.  It’s great to meet people my age doing what they love to do, being successful, and still being down to earth and approachable.  I found out afterwards Rye Rye also stopped in to say hi after the show, I must have just missed her!

Two things that were constants in my life in Baltimore while Natty Paint was starting up were my diet and exercise:being vegan and Bikram Yoga.
I’ve decided after much deliberation, I don’t want to be vegan anymore. I like having many more food options available and miss things like eggs and greek yogurt. And now I can eat other things! Like goat cheese! The list keeps going… But milk will not happen, EVER. I hate milk.

I have also decided it’s time to pick up Bikram again, as it is the ultimate way  to destress, relax, and clear my head.  Today was my first day returning to practice Bikram Yoga. Luckily, there’s a studio super close by in Williamsburg! YES!

After getting back from class, I see I’m tagged in new pic on Facebook of a Bikram yoga instructor wearing a Natty Paint custom Bikram Yoga Hampden shirt, standing next to Bikram Choudhury himself!  EPIC!

We’re going to work on getting Bikram his very own shirt to wear at teacher training. Bengal tiger strength, bulldog determination!

We’re really excited to be featured in it and you can find more details about this on its Facebook page. We hope to see you there!

Here is a picture of the dress that Brie Larson bought:

Also, Lucy Liu was spotted by People Magazine walking right across the street from AuH2O:

These two lovely ladies are in a movie called East Fifth Bliss together and it is rumored that Brie Larson will be sporting her Natty Paint in the movie. Get pumped!

The film was amazing and we got to talk to Josh Dibb, also known as Deakin, after the show and gave him and the rest of the band some Natty gear. We were able to get a picture with him and some of the shirts we gave him:

Check out their MySpace page and read this  interview they had with Pitchfork.

They opened for Miike Snow at the 9:30 club last week. After the show we were able to snag up the lovely dudes and give them some customized Natty Paint tee shirts. Ellos encantaron. (That means they loved, for all the gringos out there.) Loved the shirts so much, in fact, that they  planned to wear them to their Philly concert the next day. Buenissimo!

Here’s some pics of the chicos donning Natty Paint:

We are definitely planning on collaborating with them in the future and customizing more of their band tees and posters! Keep watch!

Check out their official myspace page or a review of their album Ayrton Senna, the “perfect summer album.” Here’s an interview with our favorite brassy Basque Boys.
