Shooting with Acidcupcakes.com!

Acid Cupcakes is an online vintage store created by two dear friends of mines, Gabrielle Alicea and Simone Webb! Gabrielle is a very talented artist and Simone is a fashion stylist and wardrobe consultant. These two #girlbosses are from Buffalo, New York. I met Gabrielle in high school and she inspired me to conceptualize my personal style when I met her and now that I reminisce she inspired me to pursue styling as a career. Her art (painting, drawing, etc.) is breathtaking and she even does tattoos. She recently graduated with an art degree from a school in Orlando, Florida. Simone, I met her thru Gabrielle as I was a college student. Her style as well as Gabby's is very unique and 'so NY'. Simone is a current Fashion Merchandising Student in NY! I gravitated towards their energies not only because of their 'grind hard' mentality but their love for art and fashion inspired me so much!

When they launched Acid Cupcakes I fell in love with their ability to price items at great rates. The two also shoot items prior to posting them on the site which gives the items a personal touch before they are purchased online. Acid Cupcakes has a great following on social media platforms. An Acid Cupcake Girl is an eccentric girl who loves adventure and has a taste for rare items no one else has. If you looked up Acid Cupcake Girl online you would see Rihanna and Nicole Richie. Acid Cupcake Girls aren't afraid to test the waters and embrace their personal style! I hope this shoot inspires you readers to want to be an Acid Cupcake Girl! I think I was initiated as one during the shoot! ;)
