MSN.com The Victory Project: Atlanta--Nick Verreos Goes Shopping!!

HOTLANTA Fashion Babes!Color Divas: MSN Fashion Guru Nick Verreos and Renee, Victory Project Atlanta

Back in April, I flew to Atlanta Georgia to do my "Nick Magic" on the four Atlanta Ladies of MSN.com and Special K's The Victory Project. As you may know, I am the "Fashion Guru" for this great Web-exclusive program which follows women from various parts of the country in their quest to be VICTORIOUS. The women have a "special" goal they want to conquer for a unique event in their lives--be it an Anniversary, a Job Interview, a Honeymoon or maybe even a Reunion--Their goal is to become healthier and fit with the aid of Work-Out Diva Kacy Duke, and Nutritionist Katherine Brooking.Yellow Gorgeous: Nick Verreos and Holly, Victory Project Atlanta

After months of getting their body and nutrition program in tip-top Special K shape, Beauty Expert Chantal Moore comes in for the hair and makeup make-over and I come in to work my "Have You Ever Thought of Wearing Heels HUUUUUNEEEEYYYY!!!!!????" Nick Verreos fashion "Moment".
Well Appointed: The Room at The Mansion Peachtree Hotel, Atalnta

I arrived in Atlanta, checked into my stupendous The Mansion Peachtree Hotel Suite in the tony area of Buckhead (I heard Beyonce had just been there and left her room at 1 AM to check out her husband's performance!) and went right to work. A full 16-hour day of pre-shopping and I was "armed and ready" for my Victory Project Atlanta Babes. For my first two Fashion Subjects, we filmed (and shopped) at the gorgeous Macy's Lenox Square Mall in the Buckhead area of Atlanta. As you know, I host a TON of events for Macy's across the USA so I was "at home" with all the stylish INC/International Concepts separates, directional Rachel Roy jackets and tops and very cute Jessica Simpson pumps around me, thank you very much!For the other two ladies, Nikki and Amanda (above), I had them meet me at my favorite Atlanta "specialty" boutique, Fa-brik. Angelique Dorier and Kara Dedecker, Fa-brik's fashion "goddesses" (above with moi) were so accommodating, in making myself--and the Victory Project Atlanta ladies, feel right at home, and as if this was their very own closet!Brick Fashion Loft: Interior of Fa-Brik Boutique Atlanta

I LOVED hanging out with my Atlanta girls and getting our "Shopping ON!!" Each of them had their own unique goal, unique tastes and unique way of dealing with fashion and I just made them make FASHION their FRIEND...not their enemy. I think that I helped them...one FAB fitted jacket ,flowy dress, and fierce strappy heel...at a time! Bye Atlanta. I Will Miss You!
