The UPLIGHTING
The LOVE
Rip the Runway!!
Hi all!! Events by MOJA is in the midst of planning our first Fashion Show Event for a clothing line called J. Christ. The designer is a friend of mine and the concept is for the stylish Christian who wants to wear the name of Jesus Christ. The show is on Sunday August 15th at 6pm @ 434 Dewitt Avenue in Brooklyn, NY. The clothing line is great and the show is jam packed with Christian artists!
We sat down with D. Charles to ask him a few questions...listen in:
D.Charles,
What was your inspiration behind the JCHRIST clothing line?
J. Christ was inspired by one of my shopping adventures. I was looking for a nice stylish shirt and every shirt that caught my eye as fashionable and buyable seem to have a skull hidden within the designs. I refuse to wear a symbol of death on my body but realized that meant I couldn't purchase a lot of the nice clothes that were in the stores. I thought to myself that it would be cool to have style and positive powerful symbols and imagery. One year later, my dream was realized with the most powerful symbol imaginable. His name.

Who wears JCHRIST?
J. Christ is worn by everyone! There are probably just as much non-christians wearing it as christians. This is telling of the fact that there is a desire for an image of hope. People of all walks of life and backgrounds seem to agree that Jesus embodies hope. His name carries a heroic quality just like Che Guevarra's face, or Barack Obama symbol or MLK's silhouette. My students love it, atheists respect it, muslims applaud it and positive people wear it.
Where do you see JCHRIST in the future?
I see J. Christ as an international phenomenon. I am collecting pictures for what I call the "J. Christ Nation". I want to capture images of people separated by distance but united under one name.
What is to be expected at the JCHRIST Fashion Launch on August 15th?
Well, I can't give too many details BUT.... It's going to be LIVE!!! You can expect diversity, laughter, music and surprises. You gotta come to find out!!!
How do you like working with Events by MOJA LLC?
Events by MOJA is seriously a God-send. I will not do another major program without at LEAST a consultation from MOJA. The entire Events by MOJA Team works tirelessly to make my vision come to life. Its happening right before my eyes and I could not do it without them.

Turn It Up Thursday!!!
You already know what day it is!!! Well instead of a wedding...this couple "Turned It Up" with their Engagement Photo Shoot!!! I've lived in NYC all my life and grafitti has never looked as pretty and artistic as this photographer made it appear. Love this couple...cant you just feel the love coming through the pictures?? Enjoy!!!
Home wasn’t built in a Day...
...The Wedding Registry Attendant at Bloomingdales said that to Bethenny as she was registering her items for her wedding.... LOLOL!!
I am NOT a reality show junkie, (I think my own life should be filmed in all sincerity...lol)...….but last night I watched my DVR’d episodes of Bethenny’s Getting Married? She is just so down to earth and yet crazy enough that I simply love her…..she’s not so celebrity-ish that you feel as though she is unapproachable. So….let’s talk about her wedding!! I loved it….uncomplicated (compared to other celebrity weddings) and intimate….
I loved her dress….I can just imagine how much more stunning it would be if she wasn’t pregnant (what?...I’m not judging...I’m just a traditional girl) but she looked great!!!
I must say…she gave her wedding planner a run for the money…..I think she is the type of client that most Wedding Planners dread…. yet would love to have as a challenge to their wedding planning skills!! He planned a Beautiful wedding...And to think...he did it in 4 weeks!!!!!! WHOA!!

Honorable Mention….Bethenny’s Husband…Jason Hoppy!! (Don’t you just LOVE HIM!!!)
Nothing Like the Real Thing....
So my First Wedding has come and gone...my couple is currently on their honeymoon....it's really like watching your baby crawl, then walk right out of your arms!! But it was a successful event...Events by MOJA Sr. Associate Dorlene, surprised me with walkie-talkies as a gift and I wouldn't have made it through without them....or her....THANKS DORA!!!
But no time to stop and reminisce....I'm organizing a fashion show that's coming up in a few weeks!!!!
My name badge pins came just in time....it was great to be easily identifiable to the guests and also gave me great exposure!! ; )
