LOVE!!! Clary's Closet teams up with Hairstylist Niki Poptsis!!!

During our recent Calendar photo shoot we have been telling you all about, many aspects far surpassed our expectations - one part in particular that we couldn't be more excited about! Our personal relationship with Niki Poptsis goes way back, but over the last few days that relationship was taken to the next level - and we were able to work with Niki for the first time in a professional atmosphere. I can't emphasize enough how impressed we were with Niki's professionalism - her passion and devotion to creating the most ideal hairstyle, perfectly executed through her hard work, acquired skill & necessary research. Numerous times throughout her typical day, Niki searches online and looks at blogs from famous hairdressers and photo shoots, and studies all of those pictures for inspiration. She can't wait to practice them on her friends or use them on her next client (she even styled Clary's hair while we had a little extra time on set- and the end result, a totally fabulous beachy look, we absoutely loved- check out Niki's blog for more pics of that!!) - it is that devotion to her job and self discipline that is going to take Niki very far in the world of hairstyling. Niki's overall energy and passion towards her clients happiness, in addition to the pride that she takes in her work are just a few of the reasons we feel so blessed to work with her- not only on this past shoot, but on upcoming shoots to come. She truly is an asset to our team, due to both her fabulous work ethic & her undeniable heart & personality that really shine through while she is working! Niki makes sure that her client's hair is absolute perfection before she lets them walk on the set - and she doesn't hesitate to jump in between shots to fix one stray stand of hair or add a little extra hairspray! It is that kind of passion that client's really love and appreciate - Not to mention her bubbly personality that was so encouraging & inspirational to the client of the last shoot - I could really tell Niki was helping her feel confident and more comfortable with her reassuring comments and cute instructional pose ideas. We are so happy and thrilled that we got to experience Niki in this professional light, and the amount of respect and admiration we have for her work will only grow each and every time we work with her! Check out some of these pics of Niki on the set, and make sure you read Niki's Hairstyling Blog for updates and more on her and what she is doing!

Day 1 - Calendar Photo Shoot - Success!!!

It was ABSOLUTE MADNESS in our world today, and I mean the most exciting, entertaining, professional & productive madness you could possibly imagine!! Today marked day one of the private client calendar shoot that brought together an all-star team of local talent- John Hildebrand (photographer), Niki Poptsis (hairstylist), Veronica Sinclair (make-up artist), & Clary's Closet's very own Clary Mendez (stylist/artistic director). From the very first moments when the shoot began at 8am, the completely natural & totally undeniable chemistry of the team was apparent - laughter & excitement filled the air as everyone prepped for the shoot, rocking out to a mix of old school hits broadcasting through the house via John's iPhone. As John & his assistant prepped the lighting, Niki enthusiastically curled & styled, Veronica gorgeously applied the make-up, & Clary perfected & added last minute wardrobe details. The numerous ways that the team joined forces to execute well thought out instructions & scenario's & turn them into real life shots were nothing short of incredible! We took a ton of totally cute & candid behind the scenes shots, but since this is a private shoot, most of them can not be posted.... yet! Hopefully when the shoot is all wrapped, we can let you all in on a bit more of the fabulosity that occurred behind the scenes- but for now, this is just a glimpse of day one!!! We resume the shoot tomorrow, bright and early, and trust, we can't wait for the excitement & madness that tomorrow will bring!!! Stay Tuned.... We sincerely hope & believe that this is the beginning of some truly incredible projects in the future.....LOVE IT, SO EXCITED!!! (more pics to come) ALSO- the adorable shirts that Niki and Clary are wearing can be found exclusively at Revolution Malibu)

Watching all of this amazing clothing and accessories hardly be used or worn, and building relationships with people behind the scenes of the fashion world, Clary has developed a select clientele who make Clary's Closet possible. She hand selects insanely fabulous high end designer items and totally rare finds- ranging from unique, one of a kind vintage pieces to this seasons designer must-haves that are still on the shelves and being sold in the stores now!
