Less Is Always More

We all know that Facebook is full of buzzfeed articles now, some are awesome and some make me wonder who would ever post something so weird. I saw this post yesterday and thought that it proves a point in our industry so of course we are going to talk about it. Have you ever worked with a promotional model that has amazing pictures then shows up to the event looking like she rolled out of bed? That is what this article reminds me of and this is why we ask for candid pictures of models. The client and the modeling agency want to know what you really look like! We want to see what you will look like at your promotion or trade show, not what a make up artist made you look like for a photoshoot. Make up artists are wonderful at what they do! Here is the link, look at the difference! http://www.buzzfeed.com/awesomer/makeup-before-and-afters?bffb Team Pink Avenue

Pink Avenue Models Update!

I think it has been a while since we have blogged about what we have been doing. The team at Pink Avenue Models has definitely been busy, we have events all over the country! We teamed up with one of our favorite clients for an ongoing promotion. It started in May and will go through October. Most of our events have been on the East Coast, New York, DC, Philadelphia, Baltimore and surrounding cities. PLMA is coming to Chicago in November and we are already booking clients for this show. NACS will be taking place in Las Vegas in October and we have already started working on this as well. We have a brand new client and we are so excited about it! We staffed Routes Chicago in September and NBAA in October in sunny Orlando. We also had IRCE and ITW in the Spring, these events were both in Chicago. This is just a quick update on what we have been doing. Our Twitter, Facebook, and blog pages are updated daily with current events. Thank you to all of our promotional models that work for us, we couldn't do it without you! Team Pink Avenue

Flashback Friday!

I know it's Monday but we missed our flashback Friday post so I'm doing it today. This is from Fabtech a couple of years ago. We hired 8 promotional models to pose for pictures with consumers, the audience was 90% men so it was a pretty easy event for these ladies. Most of these models have moved from Chicago but are definitely still on our roster, these girls are rockstars! 208431_10150230411255883_499890_n Team Pink Avenue

Summer Make Up Tips For Every Promotional Model

I was just on a little tour of the South and it was amazing, but it was HOT! I have lived in Chicago for over 6 years and I have had some really hot days but we appreciate them because we have very cold days. Summer is a very busy time for events and promotions in this city and our promotional models are expected to look their best. When it is between 90 - 100 degrees this can be impossible. Here are some tips for Summer make up, I hope they help! http://www.stylelist.com/view/15-tips-for-keeping-your-makeup-in-place-during-hot-summer-month/#!fullscreen&slide=14177 Team Pink Avenue
