Mad Men...Starring Michelle of Dolci Bar

Sometimes, we'll work for food in exchange, especially if it satisfies our majorly hypersensitive sweet tooth. Recently, VT made up her good friend Michelle in a Mad Men 1940's themed look in exchange for some of her Vietnamese coffee, Thai tea and chai tea cupcakes (yes, CUPCAKES!). Book this pastry cheftress immediately. Her dessert creations are not only delish, but easy on the eye as well! Check out Michelle's Dolci Bar and peep her hair, make-up and styling done by Step HEAVVY's VT.

Pink MEOW Continued!

These pink tee's are now available at Adapt. Make-up, hair and styling done by yours truly on the beautiful Ashley Vee and photographed by Arturo Torres.

Dulce Vita Release Party

Hopie Spitshard, our largest supporter, released her spanking new EP, Dulce Vita, for download here. Produced by 6Fingers and presented by Adapt and 24K Milkcrate, this EP deserves full bass and repeat play for ALL music heads. We'll be at the release party this Thursday, so cop the music, grab a drink with us and be prepared for some head knockin'.

Step HEAVVY Official Website Launch

Step HEAVVY's 1st year anniversary is coming up and we're planning to officially launch our website on that very day. No more of this blog ish. We've been working hard with our beloved web designer, Dan Zhou to create somethin' that showcases our steez and that is easy enough for us to handle on our own. Transferring our blog to the new host brings back memories of connections that were built this year and looking back, we are so grateful for them. Without the support of our biggest patron, Hopie Spitshard, and the multitude of friends' friends and friend's friends' friends, Step HEAVVY would NOT have come as far as it did.

A more fluid and much more intensive look back will come as our launch inches closer. Just wanted to tell the world that make-up, hair and steez were initially just our hobbies...but have taken off to pay bills, expand our network of friends, and fulfill our creative energy. One year only? To year three, year four, year whatever. We're just doin' what we love.

Watch out for a party shindig thang thang on Saturday, Feb. 26th. We'll show off our snazzy website that midnight, when a year ago, Step HEAVVY was up printing misshaped business cards and passing in and out of consciousness preparing for our very first photoshoot.

Steppin'

Scored a head shot from the beautiful Tameka Jacobs, who, aside from her modeling career, is an established and extremely talented photographer. We had the privilege of working her four boudoir clients last Sunday and we couldn't have asked for a smoother shoot. With that aside, here we are after a long day working in a swanky Santana Row hotel.
