NYFW PREP | SHAVED MY FACE? | WHAT I REALLY THINK....

[@arielbritt2448]

I appreciate your openness about photographers not taking your pic. To be honest, I would keep doing you and have your own photographer at these shows. ❤

[@vickicampbell2736]

i have a problem with chin hairs. If you learn of anywhere i can help help please post ❤

[@kearstenw3855]

Carolyn, you're so beautiful without even trying. The whole top bun, black tank and jeans are a vibe, js!

[@coolmom751]

Thank you for sharing! I completely understand "the disheartening" feelings of not being seen. Just know that YOU are being seen and YOU matter!!! #CelebrateYOU 💯👏🏾❤️👏🏾🙏🏾

[@sandymason1772]

Your messy-bun hairstyle is stunning on you. You have a beautiful face and this hairstyle allows that to shine. Tutorial on the hair please. BTW - your videos bring a bit of fresh air in these trying days. Thank you!❤

[@rashawndaruffin4919]

Quiet as it’s kept, that smooth move tea helps all things stuck 😂

[@Councils-Girl]

My Mother always said that variety is the spice of life 😊 and if they don’t get it… we see and appreciate you ❤ have a great time and we look forward to how you style your things at Fashion Week! Also your skin looks Amazing 😊

[@nataliea.s.4595]

I thought I was okay with the times that I’ve been to NYFW but you’re making me want to make my way back. And no worries, I was snubbed by Bill Cunningham in my workplace chic shift dress. 😂 He literally took a picture of two women and then he looked at me and my co-worker like he thought about it and then decided, “nah.” RIP Bill Cunningham. And you’re style is serious inspo. So many of these photographers and industry folks are not about the art. Instead they are focused on the politics and the mainstream. Your channel and one other influencer really motivated to step up my game again. I’m more interested in texture and layers now. Can’t wait how you style those iconic pieces. ❤

[@AllOverDori]

Haha The Deliverance was such a good horror flick. No filter and NEVER would I have imagined I would witness Glenn Close installing a full sew-in 😅

[@starrshopper]

Love your content! The nails are so dope . Thanks for the close-up. The cookie ones look like Madeline’s. The French cookie cousin to macarons. 😉😍

[@lisawells6669]

You are absolutely beautiful ms ma'am. This natural look is everything.

[@kearstenw3855]

I would most definitely ask them! That's just the type of person I am. If I want to know something I'm going to ask and you have every right. It's definitely disheartening when you put in so much work and so much effort and they turn the blind eye. Your feelings are definitely validated and it's cool you're allowing yourself to feel all the stuff.

[@FabChicModest]

I can't wait to see all the Fashion Week looks, I know you'll stand out 🔥💯

[@Allthingscheri]

Your skin looks lovely ☺️ cant wait to see some looks come together! Give it to em CG!

[@sharonerenaldo3466]

You are so cute with your Top Bun-- I love it-- Looks GOOD ON YOU GURL FRIEND!!!

[@AliciaEnikanoselu-qg3jw]

I think if we would take time to make our own spaces for people that look like us then it will be much better for us..

[@kathleenharris8824]

This was great Carolyn to see all of the prep for NYFW! You are ready!!!!❤

[@marciwalker9368]

Look forward to see how you style everything for NYFW.. And I say ask of course! Its so sad hearing there's still such a divide in this fickle industry especially when so many WOC are deserving! We work equally-no harder to get opportunities & recognition. Stay blessed & keep being you Carolyn ❤️🙏🏽

[@tayevionwi_]

I’m so ready for these looks! I know they are going to be amazing!! 🔥🔥

[@siljewergeland3068]

Love the hair, in a bun and a little bit messy! Looks really good. Understand your frustration and dis-hartening feeling.

[@perun8608]

you are interesting and awesome just the way you are and funny as a drunk bee! 🌹❤️I love your style which looks like your blood count, absolutely healthy and according to your mood... I am Tamara's compatriot... she is unique, just like you... 💫it is not white or colored, it is simply whether you have it or not and whether you stick with it or not... don't let prejudices and assumptions influence your path... Tamara has worked her ass off to get this far (no matter where she comes from and the color didn't help her much either🤨🙂‍↕️😔)…work is the answer

[@anneettienne3285]

Like the vintage fashion they will look great. I hear you about fashion weeks in general it’s like the black content creators are not always getting the same level of access to certain shows and events but we wear and use there products lol ❤

[@KenteeNStyle_]

Can’t wait to see you guys inNYFW

[@kearstenw3855]

Honestly, dermaplaning makes me feel like a whole new woman. It's like it washes my sins away! 😅😅

[@abcstyles]

WE have always been the inspiration for other folks . . . on everything. IJS

[@CharisseKenionYT]

You're so organised! I am feeling so bad about not prepping for LFW yet. Tell me why we booked a holiday and I come home one day before I go to LFW? 😭

[@yvetteanderson5504]

Looking forward to see how you and the gwerls will shut the house down during NYFW.

[@malikahwilson9423]

I can’t wait to see your looks, I know they are going to be so good. Trust me they see you and all your fabulous fashion.Basically I think they are told who to take pictures of.Keep doing you ❤.

[@deniseoates7147]

The whole NYFW being kind of feeling excluded and street style not being captured by the photog and designers houses not reaching out to provide looks for attendance and not having sizes. Monroe Steel talked about this in-depth years ago before covid and it was very disheartening to me to hear that it was happening here and in Europe but was also shocking me that most of the photographers were not people of color either. She basically had worked with someone to capture her stylings. But then came that year of black girl magic during FW and I was so delighted, and I squealed because finally. But I want to see different people captured outside of the events, photographers need to capture something fresh, and I am not so much interested in those born with silver spoons, which position them to constantly get gifted items and celebrity and having very slim bodies because that not representative of the major population. Congrats and excited to see all these great items that you gain access to and can't wait to see how you actually style them during NYFW. So let get clear on the dermabrasion, so they are not supposed to be using razors but some other tool? How do you find out about what is used by someone doing these if I am interested into looking at this procedure here in KCMO

[@vickicampbell2736]

you look amazing always

[@talisadorsey173]

Skin looking amazing ❤❤❤!

[@mommieme1961]

This is very nice of Christian, I am jealous of your pieces, so beautiful

[@siddyinthesity]

Now I need to watch “the Deliverance” and these LOOKS- I can’t wait to see how you STYLE each piece. Alsoooooooo, you’re ONE of ONE, ain’t (no typo) nothing small about you!!!

[@abcstyles]

Thanks for telling the truth about the bias.

[@KenaHutch]

Talk Yo Issshhhh Be Nosy...I LOVE IT...#BLUEPRINT

[@michelmitchell6901]

I’m so excited!!!!!!!!

[@FashionFoodieBUM]

can you do the first versace blazer with the no pants look with some knit or leather shorts and stockings

[@Ccgemini]

Some of the photographers are told WHO to SHOOT based on WHO they work for. I can’t wait to see the looks.

[@ericadallas9839]

Where did you find those closet storage containers? I love how they click open

[@marilyncampbell7281]

I started this comment but here is the gist of it. This influencing business is all of your creations so keep working it to the highest level. we need you out there and Carolyn you give us more than fashion issues and that is great. I think all of you should move together and explore that side of influencing. Your voices can be a changing moment. As the scholar Dubois said the issue in America is the color line. And we don't stand for each other across all fronts. we want to be paid by the larger society and don't expose their ugliness. race like you said we spend our coins and big coins and they take our money. You have to speak on it. you spend and we spend following you. "may be we need to speak to Tamara and the photographers about it as well.

[@mberry6830]

When you’ve been eating bad and need a good clean out, eat an apple and drink some water before you go to bed. Next morning you’re usually good!

[@yourstylishfriend]

I agree about the street-style photographers. I've never been to NYFW but I do enjoy looking at the street-style photos that are taken the vast majority of them are of the same type of girl/guy and their outfits don't even be that great. I be swiping through the photos like “okayyyy where are the black folks”

[@AliciaEnikanoselu-qg3jw]

You deserve to be taking photos of at any events that you walk in on and yes you should ask the question why?..

[@arah9446]

Hi. Where did you get your ear cuff? It’s nice

[@tjax5534]

Hi Carolyn! So many goodies in this video. Thanks for the insight and the laughs (the outburst around 28:24 made me LOL!) YOU are seen!❤❤❤

[@frederikaBardley]

Ask those photographers Carolyn about this issue of overlooking you black influencers. Make them LIE.

[@gwendolynepps9174]

Gurl ask those questions cause we cookies are nosey too! If they don't photograph u in any of those fits they're bots without imagination

[@sherlondastephens5683]

❤

[@clemmytinelyday6536]

CG, have you seen the "Sneex" shoes they look like you

[@kearstenw3855]

DERMAPLANING IS EVERYTHING FOR YOUR FACE. IT GIVES YOU A CLEAN SLATE!!!!

[@shoelady6457]

😁👍

[@AliciaEnikanoselu-qg3jw]

Why do we as African-American women have to go with it and flow with it when things are against us why?...

[@nwms5597]

Tamara Kalinic is one the best out there. Took her some time too for her to get to where she is now. I agree with the other person--keep doing you and take your own photographers. These brands look at your videos and things you say. Sai DaSilva made a good point how she loss brands for certain things said on RHONY... I say this repsectfully... I got a nasty remark from you after commenting about a comment you made about TSwift.. I am not a swifty in no way... I'm just in the business of working with successful people at all levels... I thought it was a bit rude... But do you and I wish you all the best! JNaylor/ Karen BC are some of the best too...

[@judylugay9024]

✅✅💯💥

[@Peinaj]

I'm not in the Fashion world so I was ignorant to the fact that even street photographers are selective.

[@er6333]

Hey as far as the photographers, why don’t you engage a quick conversation,like hey what kind of camera are you using? And\or just say ‘hey could U take a picture of Us..that’s it. See what happens.👗

[@LisaBarrett-n9m]

I’m not surprised that the fashion photographers are lame. They probably only take photos of the folks that they KNOW they can sell so, like so many other industries, they LIMIT the number of photos that they take of the “new comers”.

[@uu7794]

Unfortunately it can be also very toxic industry..many white girlies have connections, big management and via them or they have their own contracts with the photographers. It’s so stupid and shallow many opportunities are because of follower count..also Tamara ain’t that nice of a person unfortunately and personally can’t also watch her ever growing endless comsumerism. Anywayyy love ya and I hope you have a nice experience in the fashion week. You’re my favorite fashion channel these days ✌️💕
