Creativity has no FullStops!

'Google Me Baby' ... She's Got That Vibe!



I do not know whether I was initially stolen away by this 'Downtown's Sweetheart's' logo featured above or her entrepreneur take on life and her want to keep creating or even her STYLE and girl next door look! She goes by the name of Va$tie Kola and not only is this mami cita fly as .... she's a doll working for her throne and she's paid, girl has got it going on! Her trademark is left on all her work, so people know her work when they see it, but she is still able to add something new to each and every project making it look different from the rest.



















OK Let me drop it (DRUM ROLL PLEASE) she is an visionary director, designer, style maven, party producer, lady of leisure meaning socialite, entrepreneur and she is also into life through the lens (photography).... how amazing right??? She is 29 yrs of age (almost 30), bet your wishing you could look this good @29, I still got 6yrs and 3 weeks to master it. (wink) Va$h has directed music videos for the likes of Solange (Tony), Junior Sanchez & Good Charlotte (Elevator), Justin Bieber (One Time) and Kid Cudi (Heaven at Night) and she is very much hands on!







In 2006, Vashtie started a monthly 90’s party with her best buddy Oscar Sanchez, titled “1992”. Spinning music only from the early 90’s, the event brought out a mix of people such as Ne-Yo, Jermaine Dupri, Patrick Ewing, Redman, DJ Premier, The Clipse, Maxwell, Kid Cudi and more. Although its headquarters is in New York City, the party has spread as far as Miami, Paris and Amsterdam. In 2008, '1992' was nominated for Best Party at the Paper Magazine Nightlife Awards and received a style feature in The New York Times..... to add to her current achievements.
























I am absolutely in love with her website as I am a big fan of interactive websites and hers does the title justice and its so her and in addition to that it is uber cool! Check it out at http://www.vashtie.com/















She has her own style in the form of clothes ..... I did tell you she is a designer right? Well it's titled 'Violette' and it's got her written all over it, its a very casual and affordable brand with a mix of various designs on t-shirts, something that would do me just right as im a throw it on kinda chick and never look back (*No Regrets) kinda flick! Violette is a combination of many things and so is Va$htie's style, rock, feminine, masculine (tomboy flair), cute, hip hop, street & downtown, quite a bit of opposites. Her attire fits her lifestyle (always on the go) and she's a lover of kicks, favs are Jordans. As Vashtie says,


Imagine if Louis Vuitton had a daughter living in the Lower East Side – she’d be rocking a luxury handbag and a fly pair of kicks. Her wardrobe would consist of rare designer items and delicate vintage pieces. With superb style that is effortless and uncontrived, she starts trends without thinking. The harmony of contrasts is a distinction of her true sense of fashion.


























Check out her collection..... Currently stocked in Yokohama (Japan), Paris (France) and Las Vegas. I'm in love with polaroid shots so you can see why it was a winner for me at first glance, her ad campaigns are to the 'ODT!'






















In her interview with LTD Mag she was asked, what was the main factor for launching her line (violette) when SHE did? She replied saying ....
I waited too long in my opinion. I do this with everything. I’m always like I’ll wait on that. I remember reading a quote somewhere like great ideas that are never executed are a waste of space. In ’99 I was like I want to start a line, I need the perfect name and then it’s oh I’m busy with school. It got to a point where I didn’t have a choice anymore. I saw so many other people doing great things on their own.


She was also part of Rachel Roy's RRR latest Lookbook Spring collection shoot, and you can watch clips and see further pics @ http://www.rachelroy.com/RRR/LOOKBOOK_MAIN,default,pg.html


We want to say Happy birthday to Va$htie on behalf of Runway Script and hope she has a RocKer of a time at her party tonight, Be Merry! That handmade card by a fan on the left is creative and sweet.(Take a peek at her Jordan cake, told you she was a fan didn't I?)


















I love her outfit for her featured photoshoot in NYLON MAG - 'It Girl' especially those hosiery's.... again she illustrated her Tomboy Extraordinaire twist to her outfit whilst still looking feminine and cute, not everyone is able. She definitely has your girl next door look and them curls do also play a part to it, I guess that's what makes her blogger friendly.

Finally, check out her interview.... and Enjoy! ...... Toodles

    U know im soooooooooooooooooo in love with Vashtie. Im like a major major fan. U got it right? she's like the coolest, relaxed but yet dope, go getter chic eva! What i love about her is that its so not forced....everythng seems so natural to her . U know like Mariah Carey forces to be sexy and Rihanna forces to be bad (God bless them both) Vashtie seems so naturelle in it all. Its seems like shes not forcing 'fame' or to be out there,and thaat she has truly been identifed for her talent.
    Lovin all the info....i neva get sick of Vashtie..(im going so ova the top now aren't i?..lol.) Anyway Vashtie deserves it and im speaking sincerely, she's totally inspired me over the past year that i have been followiing her (not in the stalker sense) and i wish her the best in all her endeavours. I appreciate and hope that she contiues to stay true to who she is and not conform to 'commercial' way of being.
    You got some underground pics here *lav it*, the pics with the heels for hands *too cool*. I really hope to interview her one day. She's such a doll.
