Those of you who follow me on Instagram know that i was recently in Chicago for a day to DJ an event. When my girl Natalie presented me with her proposal and asked me if i was available to DJ her style series i was totally with it! First and foremost i have never been to Chicago so that was a no brainer, and secondly i’m all for supporting like minded women who are down to hustle. With all this being said i told her to sign me up!
After i landed i checked into the Palomar Hotel and i have to admit the service was great! As soon as i got to my room there was a bottle of bubbly and a nice welcome note attached. If you ask me that a great way to make your guest feel special. Michelle and i had a couple of glasses of that and ordered a deep dish pizza from Giardano’s which was delicious. While stuffing our faces we took the time to get some work done, and then i was off to meet Nolis ( a photographer that all my friends advised i shoot with) for a quick little shoot.
Nolis and i breezed through our quick little shoot because i had to get to the venue to meet up with Natalie to get glammed up! I have to admit her team really took care of me. Yolanda laid my hair for the God’s, and Nina Cowen’s beat my face. Let’s not forget to mention how in love i was with my outfit that Natalie styled.

I hopped on the set right after Fancy Fux who had a super poppin song selection. I don’t know how I did it but i managed to finesse the heck out of my set considering the little girl who sat next to me on the plane spilt her drink all over my bag, which resulted in my mouse acting suspect. It all worked out and i was happy to see people dancing and enjoying themselves. The crowd was like a fusion of finance guys in suit and ties, and a bunch cool kids who dressed for comfort and style. It was nice to see people dancing until the party actually ended.
Special thanks to Girl Natalie and Underground for taking care of me. Until next time!
