A Deeper Look Into Spry…

Recently, on one of my trips to Atlanta, I had the pleasure of sitting down for an in-depth interview with Ed Garnes of From Afros to Shelltoes.  This, I must say, is the best interview thus far that I’ve had since my career began.  Sharing laughs, industry insights, ah-hah moments and now-and-laters, our scheduled one hour conversation, turned into three.  Although fashion was at the forefront of the discussion, the transition to inspiration and family values (amongst other topics), was an easy one.  For the first time, I was able to open up about more than just my cut-and-dry career as a celeb stylist.  As much as I enjoyed the live interview with Ed, I was even more delighted reading it.  BIG UPS to Mr. Garnes for a job well-done.

The Next Big Thing (I mean RING)!

To celebrate his birthday, Spry Lee Scott’s favorite jeweler - Melody Burns of Kiini Ibura Jewelry - gifted him with a ring that one could only imagine.  As much as he loves it, the only downside (according to Spry) is that when he wears it out, “the ring” gets more attention than him (of course, this can be a problem for a Leo). Spry was upstaged, once again, while hanging with Danity Kane at their Dollhouse Jeans launch (Summer, 2008).  Notable blogger, Elaine Perlov made it a point to photograph his masterpiece!  See what she has to say about  Spry’s metal counterpart.

The Making of Spry!

Since I was in high school, I’ve always felt like I was one of the only persons, amongst a select few, who had any fashion sense. It was then that I concluded that it was my absolute duty to make sure the rest of the world could have access to information that came natural to me. I needed to be the portal that will take these “fashion misfits” to higher ground! Friends and family members would often recruit me to go along on their shopping trips for some free advice. (Sometimes I could get a free meal or T-shirt out of it).

Although I enjoyed making them over, I still felt like an orphan, adopted by a society of people who would never be able to explain to me why I couldn’t wear white after Labor Day. It wasn’t until I entered the fashion industry as a runway model (at age 17), that I realized there were more of my species out there. People who understood the importance of knowing their body types, matching their skin tones, and who could properly pronounce the term “umpire waist”. WOW! This is where I belong (or so I thought). Yet, strutting down the runway still did not fill my void. I was content, but still there was more that needed to be done. I was a plethora of information when it comes to dressing your figure properly, and I needed to share this knowledge with the 4 out of 5 people I sit next to on the subway everyday. A friend suggested that I look into a career as a fashion stylist. “You mean I could not only offer fashion advice, but get paid doing it?” (Imagine how many meals and t-shirts that would buy!) “I’m in!” And that’s my introduction to the world of fashion as a Stylist.
