America's Next Top Model

So my friend, Erin, called me a couple of weeks ago to ask a big favor. She works for Northwest Woman's Magazine and they are starting a new event called Manic Mondays. Once a month, they pick a bar and showcase a boutique in town. They also have loads of prizes and fun give-aways. Sorry guys, it just for the ladies. Anyway, this month, it was at Raw and Erin called to ask me to be one of the 3 models in the show. My initial response was, "Absolutely not!!!!" But she did some begging and I finally gave in. Let's get one thing straight - I am NOT a model! Yes, I watch America's Next Top Model religiously, but I don't envy those girls at all! However, I love Erin dearly so I took one for the team.

One of the perks of this was being able to wear clothes from Bella Boutique. Ladies, this place is a hidden treasure! Adorable clothes at reasonable prices! It's on 6th Ave. Go check it out! It's my new favorite store.

One last side note, they were also showcasing wigs tonight. Yep, I had to wear 4 different wigs with my 4 different outfits! Get ready to laugh...your abs are going to be sore after you look at these pictures! If there's one thing I've learned from Tyra, it's that as a model, you wear what you are told without complaining. So that's what I did. Here you go!

This dress is only $60!!!


When I showed Eric the next one, he said, "Whoa! Where's the trailer park?!"

I like to call this one The Desperate Housewife. Eric calls it The Drag Queen.

Hope you had a good laugh. The next Manic Monday is on September 15th. They're going to showcase Swank Boutique. I can't remember where it's at, but I'll let you know when I find out. I might end up modeling again...I have to admit, as ridiculous as I looked, I had a great time. Plus, I need to build up my portfolio to send into Tyra! ;)

A big congrats to Erin whose first event for the magazine was a total success! Thanks also to Katey, Katie, Robin, Trish, and Nat who came out to support/laugh at me!
