MissNiya Wants You to Meet: Wedding Planner Candice Joseph

2010-11-04T22:26:00.001-04:00

A while back, I had the pleasure of meeting Candice Joseph. She was planning a wedding through her company IDoWeddingsStyle and needed a custom dream catcher for a brides bouquet (pictured below). It takes a special type of person to work with a bride on their special day. Let's get to know Candice!

Candice Joseph w/Dream Catcher by MissNiya Accessories

Who are you?

My name is Candice Joseph, a happy Sagittarius with a love for organization, communication and event coordination!

Where have you been in the last 5 yrs?

The last 5 years have seen me wear many hats career-wise. I've worked with multi-national corporations supporting sales teams and doing team building and small, up and coming businesses, where I do everything from data entry to event coordination. Geographically speaking I've been to the Caribbean a number of times (Jamaica, Antigua and Cuba), I've gone shopping in NYC and ATL and ran amok during the Montreal Jazz Festival!

Where will you be in the next 5 yrs?

The next 5 years I will be here in Toronto continuing to grow IDoWeddingStyle's client base while I work with other small businesses with their event planning and execution. I want to travel more for my work...so hopefully, I will be all over the map staking my claim and making a name for myself.

Bride's Custom Dream Catcher

Why did you choose to do what you do?

I didn't choose to plan events, it chose me. Since I was a child I was the one who turned everyday tasks into grand affairs. I remember folding napkins and lighting candles for weeknight dinners at home. My Barbie dolls had the most elaborate weddings (with invited friends and family), but in the 6th grade when I had the 1st boy/girl party for my peers, I set the bar high for future birthday parties in my neighbourhood. I knew then that party planning and hosting was my true calling.

When do you do your best work?

I work best with it's down to the wire and everyone else around me is in chaos. When I am calming people down and barking orders, I feel as if my passion truly comes through then. Of course, I also do my best work when I have lots of time to delegate and follow up!

What would your dream project be? A celebrity wedding! I'm waiting patiently for the day when one of the Obama girls are ready for marriage! lol

How do you maintain focus and stay inspired?

I find inspiration everywhere I am. I keep a pen and notebook in my purse poised for jotting down ideas as they come to me through out the course of a day. I also read wedding blogs and magazines daily. This industry is filled with amazingly creative people and it's helpful to keep up with trends that pop up each season.

Sabrina & Aaron
10.30.2010

Who is the most interesting person you've worked with?

I don't want to call anyone out for the wrong reasons. Let's just say that when you are planning weddings, you meet all sorts of bridezillas, GROOMzillas, jealous bridesmaids and wacky mothers in law!

What is your favourite accessory?

A red and brown wooden necklace that my friends and I affectionately call "Big Red". She has been worn by many friends to all kinds of events...she's a classic and well worth the money I spent on her 6 years ago!

Why should people accessorize?

Accessories are the poor woman's best friend. If you are like me, you can't buy every fashion trend every season, so the most affordable way to make my jeans and t-shirt look fly is buy having great necklaces to wear and big earrings that change the look of my outfit! Accessories are a way to have fun and look good without having to buy new wardrobes too often.

Jeannine & Brad
09.24.2007

How do you feel about online-shopping?

Love it. Online shopping is a blessing a curse. Blessing because you can gain access to all sorts of stores and vendors, curse because when you are in the comfort of your home it's so easy to spend spend spend!

How does one get to work with you?

If you have a wedding or event that you just know that you can't handle by yourself and want to relax while the work gets done for you; give me a call!

What is the best piece of advise you can give to others in your industry?

Find your strengths and don't be afraid to boast about it. I know that I'm great at calming people down and diffusing sticky family and friend situations. I make sure that everyone that I work with knows that.

Biggest pet peeve?

People who don't ask for help when they need it or take help when it's being offered to them.

Tell me about your movement?

I can help you make the journey from "Will you marry me?" to "I Do!" a truly memorable one! I plan your day of love with your love for style!

MissNiya Wants You To Meet Hairstylist Raffaele Fiorante!

2010-07-19T23:48:00.002-04:00

I've recently had the pleasure of meeting a rising star and hairstylist neither defined nor boxed in by so-called-title's. Raffaele Fiorante is just as excited to work with MissNiya as we are to have him! Read below to get an idea of what Mr.Fiorante keeps him doing what he does...

TELL US WHO YOU ARE
Raffaele Antonio Fiorante (superman/ hair stylist extrordiaire)
I'm an outgoing hair stylist in Yorkville who loves to have fun! Give me some wine and any Lady Gaga song and I'll throw down some moves. At the same time, I take my job very seriously, its my calling in life and i feel complete when doing it!

WHERE HAVE/WILL YOU BEEN IN THE LAST/NEXT 5 YEARS?

Over the last 5 years I've pretty much become more familar with Toronto and its immediately surrounding areas. I've just started traveling and I'm currently in love with New York and the fashion sense there.There is plenty more traveling to come in my future. I see myself living in L.A., maybe on the cover of a couple gossip magazines, hanging out with young hollywood starlets, becoming a celebrity stylist, who knows! I live for pop culture and trends. I especially love seeing older, more classic trends re-invented. I definitely see myself as some sort of Hair-Icon.... and if not, ill just release a sex tape!

WHY DO YOU DO WHAT YOU DO?

Fashion and beauty have always been fascinating to me, especially my passion for hair. My uncle who is also a hair stylist introduced me to to the hair industry and i fell in love. I believe hair is a woman's pride and joy and even if she is wearing the most exquisite gown, or most extravagant jewelry, if your hair looks like shit, that look overall, is incomplete. When clients leave my chair and they look at themselves in the mirror and always have a big smile on their face that gives off a confidence and joy that makes me as the stylist feel so good. Knowing I am helping women bring out their natural beauty and feel good about themselves is priceless.

HAIR BY RAFFAELE FIORANTE

WHAT KEEPS YOU FOCUSED?

My best work comes to me when im under pressure. I get bored very easily, so when everything is going at a fast pace and the heat is on, that is when i get my inspiration and my drive. I'm also inspired day by random, everyday things; when an idea pops into my head I must try it as soon as possible and find a way to make it better by somehow working it into "my" style.

WHO IS THE MOST INTERESTING PERSON YOU'VE WORKED WITH?

Maurice Fiorio has definatley taught me a lot of lessons in hair services as well as communications skills, business, and life lessons. He is a master at what he does and has given me access to countless opportunities that i am very grateful for today.

WHAT IS YOUR DREAM GIG?
I would LOVE to work backstage doing hair and makeup at a Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, or Madonna concert/tour. I would also jump at the opportunity to work music video, film or television sets. I love celebrities.... I wish I was one.... hell I am one in my own little mind!

RAFF AT LADY GAGA 2010

WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE ACCESSORY & WHY SHOULD PEOPLE ACCESSORIZE?

SUNGLASSES!! I probably own over a hundred different pairs of sunglasses, my cigarette glasses being my newest addition! i feel like when you put on a pair of sunglasses, you can be whoever you want to be, they add a bit of mistery to a person and of course they protect your eyes from the sun and nobody wants wrinkles now do they! People should accessorize beacasue if they dont they just look boring and unfinished. acessories can add and complete an outfit, it allows you to express your creativity in a subtile way, or in a loud flashy glittery way!

HAIR BY RAFFAELE FIORANTE

TELL US ABOUT YOUR MOVEMENT...

I have worked on a couple photoshoots for up and coming pop bands, doing album and single covers, as well as some promotional photos for vintage clothing designers. While I was attending the Fiorio Academy I was lucky enough to be in a short segment which aired on Much On Demand, showcasing summer hairstyles. I hope to do more projects like that so I can continue to build my portfolio in hopes of becoming Lady Gaga's personal wig keeper!!!

You can walk-in or make an appointment with Raffaele at Fiorio Salon & Spa located at
108A Cumberland St. in the heart of Yorkville.

MissNiya Welcomes Laurelle Alexandra To The Team!

2010-07-14T00:41:00.001-04:00

Hey! I want to introduce you to a very talented young lady who will be joining MissNiya's team! Fresh from having attended my alumni, George Brown College, Laurelle Alexandra is going to be a great addition! Check out what she has to say below...
Who are you?
I am makeup artist, Laurelle Alexandra and I have always been interested in the arts. I used to be very shy and I have learned to branch out of that by doing makeup. I love soccer, running and working out. I also very much enjoy reading, and in my spare time I'll go through magazines ripping out makeup, styles, photographic fashion shots that I like

MAKEUP BY: LAURELLE ALEXANDRA

Where have you been in the last 5 yrs?

I've dabbled in a bit of photography, but have mostly been freelancing my skills as a professional Make-Up-Artist through out Toronto, such as the Spring Trend Report Fashion show sponsored by Fuze, HeyDoYou.com and TheRedCarpetRoom. I have also volunteered at Holt Renfrew, and What Women Want Events, representing Cargo cosmetics

Where will you be in the next 5 yrs?

I see myself in New York working lot of editorials and runway shows. I will also design my own makeup line to be distributed and sold at Sephora.

MAKEUP BY: LAURELLE ALEXANDRA

Why did you choose to do what you do?

I was born to do makeup. My mom, a makeup artist, was my first teacher always advising me to always go out looking your best because you never know who you're going to see. She taught me the basics and gave me my first makeup palette on my 7th birthday. By the age of 12 I already knew how to apply a full face by watching her do it so many times. I was born to do makeup. I believe a lot of women don't know how to apply their makeup so they don't bother with it. But once you see someone's confidence shift for the better, just because you brighten their face with a little blush, it's the best feeling. And that is the main reason I love what I do.

What would your dream project be?

My dream project would probably to be Victoria Beckham's personal makeup artist. I admire her independence and think she has amazing style! I would love the experience, and having someone with that much style wanting me to do her makeup all the time would be amazing. That is far fetched though, so I before I do that, I would really love to move to New York and work high end runway shows, or the covers of Vogue.

MAKEUP BY: LAURELLE ALEXANDRA

When do you do your best work and how do you maintain focus?

I do my best work around people who are enthusiastic and have a good work ethic. I love to listen to music when I do makeup because it relaxes me and gets me in my moment. I can't really say something specific that helps me maintain focus. I have always gone into my own little world when I do my makeup applications. I focus on the task at hand what I so that I may get the best results.

Who is the most interesting person you've worked with?

Sandy Gold, who was my Professional Makeup 1 teacher. She inspires me so much because she has worked so hard to get where she is and she is so succesful. It makes me truly believe that I can do anything I want to, and be successful at it.

MAKEUP BY: LAURELLE ALEXANDRA

What is your favourite accessory and why should people accessorize?

I never leave my house without my heart shaped necklace that my mother gave me one year for my birthday. I feel naked when I'm not wearing anything around my neck. Accessories really compliment an outfit; no outfit is complete without accessories, I find it really completes the outfit. I also think people should accessories because it allows you to express yourself very well depending what accents you add, to make your statement...

Tell me about your movement?

Current projects include building my portfolio and online presence. I am doing a lot of freelance work in order to support my goals and eventually be represented by an agent doing editorials.That includes volunteering for fashion shows, and other fashion-related events.

MAKEUP BY: LAURELLE ALEXANDRA

How does one get to work with you?

I am pretty much open to working with anyone who wants to succeed in this business, and is willing to work as hard as possible to get there. I can be reached via email at elle_xo@hotmail.com or 905.699.9553

Back To The Future : Jimi Hendrix

2010-06-13T10:44:00.001-04:00

This, as you know is a legend. This is Jimi Hendrix musically and politially gifted, but would you take him to be a fashion icon? Fringe, scarves, the hair, denim, puffy polyester printed shirts, military jackets and boots....how can you not?

I was approached by Mark 'Kurupt" Stoddart to style his next concept shoot for
Kurupt.com alongside @AyeshaFlyChick Editorial stylist extraordinaire! Kurupt.com is a positive line of art and t-shirts promoting unity and positivity.

So, Im off for the day to shoot with an amazing photographer, Nathaniel Anderson, talented artist Kurupt Stoddart, phenomenal stylist Ayesha Flychick and a vocally unstoppable woman who will helps us bring Jimi back to the future...
The inspiration is Jimi Hendrix; Stay tuned for updates, behind the scenes photo's, the final results of the shoot, not to mention the revealing of the special guest vocalist!! Make your statement...

Traveling Boutique At Make It! June 5th

2010-05-20T05:33:00.001-04:00

I'm really looking forward to this event as it caters to those who make Art a way of life and their supporters. A friend of mine, Kiran Thind, who took her knack and need for reupholstering vintage furniture and turned it into a career invited me to be a part of the show. She felt it was time people remove the "craftiness" and "flea market" stigma from those who create functional works of art and I agreed! The slogan "a show and sale of stuff we do" is so fitting because Artisans generally have their hands in more than one medium at a time with one medium, technique or genre as their niche or forte.

Make It will be held on Saturday June 5th at Beaver Hall Gallery - 29 McCaul St, Toronto. Mark your calendars!

MissNiya's HAUTE CLASSICS Purchase!! Supporting Local Business!

2010-05-18T18:21:00.000-04:00

So, as you may have seen by now, my exclusive, one-of-a-kind pieces are now available at HAUTE CLASSICS located at Yonge & Davenport. The day I went into the shop and introduced myself, i fell in love with this white leather jacket by Guess. And to make matters worse... it was an XS!! Being petite, I know from experience that when you find something that not only fits, but fits correctly, you buy it! Because who knows when you'll find something that you wont have to hem, take in or otherwise modify.
A few things struck a cord with me when admiring this jacket: firstly, its white, secondly the laser-cut pattern and thirdly.... uhhh did i mention its my size!? White is my favourite colour (or shade depending on if you colour in or outside the lines of life) because well damnit, it looks good on me. And, I absolutely loved the fact that it had the simple pattern because I already have a white leather jacket (thank you Danier!)
The side panels and back yoke are flat leather without the pattern stopping it from "overkill" keeping an otherwise tough material sexy, soft and simple. I'm also a fan of the elastic waist giving the jacket a kind of bomber effect (important to a 90's girl) cinching my waist, elongating my legs and giving a slight illusion of a slightly more "hippy" MissNiya
The buckled cuff brings back a little bit of an edge telling the observer that this is a petite powerhouse with a little bit of spunk! At the end of the day, aside from HAUTE CLASSICS graciously carrying MissNIYA in their boutique, HAUTE CLASSICS is a really great store! As a Canadian designer and entreprenista I understand firsthand the struggle of building a brand in The Great North. Lead by example and support Canadian Business, we can never flourish if we subconsciously put a choke-hold around each others necks by supporting businesses that are based abroad.

MissNiya Now Available @ Haute Classics! Yonge & Davenport!!

2010-05-16T13:30:00.007-04:00

For weeks I walked past the hot pink sign with the diva silhouette and white paper in the window wondering "when are they opening already!?". I had peeped through a small tear in the paper in the window, tried to turn shadows into shopping and walked reeeeeally slow when the door was open and they were moving clothing in just to get a taste of what HAUTE CLASSICS had to offer...

When the doors finally and officially opened I ran in there so fast, Im sure I'd left the Roadrunner in my dust. I admired the fantastic finds that this vintage and designer consignment shop was bursting at the seams with. Can you say shoes?

I noticed that the jewelery collection was small, pretty but somewhat typical as far as vintage jewlery shopping goes and asked if they'd be willing to take any of my pieces. At first they were hesitant and said they had jewelery already. Not easily discouraged i whipped out a Black satin and feather belt. Jina and Stella's jaws dropped.

I knew right then, we were going to have a long lasting relationship in the realm of fashion.
Currently HAUTE CLASSICS is carrying the feather belt in Lime Green and Denim!!

Denim & Feather Belt in window display at HAUTE CLASSICS 946 Yonge St.

I have to say, Jina and Stella have created an absolutely fabulous shopping environment that is quaint, contemporary and selective which is a rare find with "most" consignment shops.

Choosing only the best items and are pricing them accordingly without forcing you to contemplate rent vs runway; the high quality and very gently used vintage and designer pieces, leave you feeling like the Ikea Lady....

"START THE CAR!!"

Located on Yonge street between Davenport and Belmont Ave, they are sandwiched

between Yorkville and Rosedale almost guaranteeing HAUTE CLASSICS will become a staple along side other prestigious shops that have made a home for themselves nearby.

Check out their shop, chat with them about consigning your own designer diggs and receive credit toward your own purchases when you get a freind to consign as well!! That's a pretty sweet deal that is unheard of anywhere else in the city. 946 Yonge Street(west side - south of Rosedale subway station - north of MTV) Don't forget to grab a hot pair of shoes and exclusive accessories by MissNiya!!

The collection features Handmade Neck and Bow ties, Pocket Squares and a simple yet funky and practical twist on suspenders!

In Hot pink, Rich Purple, Flourencent Yellow & Orange the collection screams summer, yet can be worn year round as a bold statement piece with any tailored look.

FIND OUT HOW HUNGRY YOU ARE NOV 21 2009. FEED THE HUNGRY

"OUR TSHIRTS ARE MORE THAN JUST REGULAR PRINTED TSHIRTS, WE HAVE A BIGGER MEANING, WE WANT PEOPLE TO RECAPTURE THEIR POWER, DESTINY, GOALS & SUCCESS, WE WANT PEOPLE TO SPEAK MAJOR, THINK MAJOR, ACT MAJOR AND FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT.

I AM NOT A MINORITY...IT'S NOT A BRAND, IT'S A MOVEMENT"

~ JOY "MS.J" STEELE ~

Anyone who REALLY knows Miss Niya, knows that I cannot stand to see people in need, especially when i have an opportunity to be the help that person needs. One of the topics that I find fascinating is that of homelessness. Having come from a varied background, I can understand first hand that you cannot judge a book by its cover as the adage goes. I often wonder what happened to that person to get them in the state they are in, while others look away in disgust wondering "why they don't do something with their life".

When I visited LA a while back, I was amazed at the homeless population, so much so, that you I was mistaking the homeless for mortgage and rent paying citizens! I wondered why there were SO MANY!? I took a look around, and realized, it was October, and I was only wearing a light jacket. According to www.endhomelessnessottawa.ca Ontario has the highest housing cost of all the provinces in this country. High costs for low and middle income households means less money for food, medicine and hygiene. Its no wonder, when you couple that fact with our overall annual cost of existence increase of $433 per person in only the last YEAR, that one-million people lined up at food banks in 2008. Also keep in mind that food banks were set up in the 80's as an "emergency response" in low economic times, it now acts as a necessary source of food for thousands of Ontarians daily.

The fact is, this is a real and pending threat to low and middle income households that can affect you sooner than later, and with our government contributing only 5% of allocated funds to increasing "adequate housing" it is up to us as a people to help each other.

Join me and the Exodus Movement AT DUNDAS SQ @ MIDNIGHT this SATURDAY NOVEMBER 21st 2009 as we collectively

FEED THE HUNGRY

We are distributing bagged lunches, clothing, condoms and hygiene products.

My business is about making your statement. 100% handcrafted one-of-a-kind wearable art for the body. I never repeat an item more than 3 times and even that is rare. Since inception, I have not duplicated any item unless its for retail, where they would still only get 3 pieces tops.

I started out with Ladies pieces back in 2004 using various mediums such as glass, pearls, sterling silver, gold-filled & vermeil wire, Swarovski crystals and...

Saidah Baba Talibah is Home Free

2009-10-21T10:55:00.000-04:00

Strong and Soulful Saidah Baba Talibah was spotted in

Miss Niya's Home Free earrings two weeks ago during a

performance in Montreal.The mahogany coloured wood,

complimented Saidah's complexion while her funky yet classy outfit,

reminiscent of Tina Turner, beautifully drew out the

golden tones in the seashell and chain, while still allowing the

black feathers to contrast against her skin and golden sequins

Saidah Baba Talibah Performing in Montreal, Quebec ~ Photo Credit: Sheldon Levy ~ Dress: NADA Design

When I met up with Saidah at during a rehearsal for Manifesto

2009 it reminded me of a clip I saw of Donna Summer once.

They both have this amazing ability to belt out those notes

buried deep within the soul with very little effort at all.

By the time i had reached the stage to see Saidah, hand on hip,

and a neutral expression on her face it was hard to believe

that all that power, that energy, that emotion was coming very

casually, very effortlessly from this humble being and

impossible to ignore.

Miss Niya likes "Good Morning Baby" and "Fall Again"

Check out The Phone Demos, a collection of naked

sounding music thats as earnest as a live performance,

inspired by late nights, and an absolute need to get that

idea down immediately (enter cell phone recording for

reference track) The gritty, hissy, old-school sound will

eventually make it to her full length album, but in the

meantime you can digitally purchase The Phone Demos

I AM NOT A MINORITY COLLECTION - FALL '09

2009-09-28T16:05:00.021-04:00

A visual play on words around the statement "I am not a minority".

At first glance this ingenious and blatant juxtaposition of a "so-called-visible-minority" wearing an "I am not a minority" tshirt is as beautiful and vivid as Magruitte's, "This is not a pipe". But much like the painting, if you look deeper you will see and hear much more than that.

Inspired by the t-shirt collection produced by The Exodus Movement Team,

Niya Melodie Accessories has created a small collection of earrings to continue the visual juxtaposition and combat against those that action sterotypes by visually shouting,

"I AM NOT A MINORITY" by way of fashion.

A Tale Of The Sweet-Guy & His Sweetheart : Custom Designs

2009-08-21T22:32:00.000-04:00

A male customer recently ordered a pair of earrings and CUSTOM bracelet (both seen above) to surprise his sweetheart. He needed no other reason except that she was feeling a bit down, and hey, he's a freakin sweet guy!

The customer was given a FREE CONSULTATION on what designs, colours, and components would work best and other information was collected, such as favourite colours and types of pieces worn most often to ensure a personal touch! The final product was boxed in the recipients favourite colour and included an information card describing the key elements and a picture of each item!

Overall the gift and surprise was a success!!

Email: niyamelodie@gmail.com to place a Custom Order for someone special!
