Teyana Taylor Takes on Black Men Mag
Starting around her sign to G.O.O.D music Teyana Taylor has been receiving a lot of media buzz. I quite frankly am waiting on the actual music to flow in. She was originally signed to Pharell's label around the time of her sweet sixteen premiere but now this lady is all grown up, a self-proclaimed (Sexiest Virgin), model, actress which is what most people know her for and also singer/rapper (remixed Marvin's Room) and is covering magazines and Instagram timelines everywhere. And has even showcased some of @KeyshaiDior lipstick line. I'm quietly awaiting Teyana's work! Stay tuned.

Mercy X Exodus X Music Videos
I love this video, the affects are pretty cool. Since Kanye has released his front line up for G.O.O.D music the people have been anxiously waiting for a hype, the upcoming releases from his artists and even some new music from artist like Common and John Legend.
All the controversy surrounding this video fuels hip hop. However, Pusha-T is an outstanding lyricist and a dynamic overall rapper. I do love some YMCMB, Drake, Lil Wayne and even Nicki but they are more so pop chart hip hopsters compared to the hip hop artists we know who actually live the lifestyle we portray. Overall, the song and video is a hit. Enjoy!
"What's hip hop without beef?"
#BTS X NikGoldDesigns
Had a blast working with Marquis #StylistQG and main photographer for Kontrol Magazine, Nathan Pearcy. My jewelry was featured for the shoot as well as a little creative directing. The shoot was at first very earthy and eclectic and ended on a pop/future yet sophisticated look. Here are some behind the scene photos taken in between shots. Enjoy!

Nik_Gold Designs Website Premiere
This summer I have learned to focus. On my craft, my passion and how to manipulate each second of this life I live into a lesson. When each second of your time is focused it resembles a lion before he attacks his meal. It zones in. It also takes independence in your actions and focus. Like a butterfly spreading it's wings for a beautiful flight. It gives me much pleasure to be selling my creations for all _Gold supporters to purchase!

Beyonce Fancy
Nothing can stop an artist from his craft.
Beyonce solidifies this statement by perfecting the craft of performing.
And also being named the best performer since Micheal Jackson.
Yes, that very talented, understated and over accused artist that passed and now everyone feels he deserves the credit.
There are artist...
and performers.
Beyonce, Ms. Fancy is one.
Another reason why I don't call females divas who just act "boujee" not a lot can hold up to the title of "Diva".
Beyonce Fancy, well that's in her name.

Another Nik_Gold Article
I recently wrote an article including an interview for Will Packer's new movie, "Think Like A Man" based off of the book written by radio host Steve Harvey. The book is a real life rule book on real love and standards in relationships. Terrance J Howard from 106& Park, funny man Kevin Hart and many esteemed actors are featured in the movie.
It is not only a black movie but a relatable movie to all races, not only a love movie but a relationship movie that people go through regardless of sex.
The movie premieres April 20th, 2012.
I was priviledged to attend the BEmagazine Men's Issue Release Party earlier this month.
It was a pleasure to write an article for this movie which is sure to be a box office hit. Be sure to buy a copy of my article in the magazine from BEmagazine.com!

Style & Lifestyle
June Ambrose is one of my favorite stylist! Famous for reinventing Luther Vandross' image she is not only amazing and strong willed with her raspy voice and easy- secure style but she has styled celebrities from Jay Z and Chrisette Michele to Diddy and Mariah Carey. She even has her own website thejuniverse.com
She recently was the featured stylist on The X Factor and now she has her own show on VH1 called, Styled by June.
One of my former classmates Aubrey Jackson totally put me on and though I rarely get to catch a television show continuously I can't wait to catch up on and enjoy. I know I will love it!

Hello Readers!
I know it has been a while since I have posted a new post on my blog.
I am now in school full time with a part time job while starting my business and maintaining a personal life and by this time next year I will be fully independent! How extreme is that?
I would like to set some standards as far as my blog goes...
I started this blog years ago as my personal journal, with current events, poetry and pictures. Not much has changed though I have added more of my interest and certainly expanded on branding and style.
This is an interactive blog and you guys can post comments on any of my posts.
This is an opinionated, fashion, music and life-style blog.
Not only am I growing as an individual but a blogger, stylist and woman.
Come with me as I take my journey through life and achieve my dreams!
