Welcome!

WELCOME!

Hey everyone and welcome to my blog! This is definitely something new for me, but I'm super excited to start! I can't wait to get to know all of you and share my little world. SOOOOO....lets do this! 

First, I guess the biggest question is, "Who is this Vivian Vanity?" Great question! I am just like you, well if you like bright colored hair and awesome things lol. But really, I'm from Houston, Texas and I am a wife, a mother, an artist, fashion designer, make up enthusiast, dye hard, wig adoring, rainbow bright doll. I love all things alternative, cosplay, lolita, pinup. horror, you name it!  

I started modeling July of 2014 when i met one of the sweetest dolls ever. She was from Alaska and was looking to shoot models that didn't fit the "norm". We picked a date and met at the Houston Food Park. WTF a food park?? YES!! It's seriously got the most amazing graffiti in Houston. Back to the story though lol. We shot for over an hour in 110+ degree weather. Between my blue hair dye dripping down my body and random people honking at us, we managed to get some great shots. She was so patient and helpful, especially since it was my first time in front of a camera! That night I started my Facebook fan page. In no time it blew up! I couldn't believe all the love my pics were getting. It was amazing to me, just a simple crazy hair colored chick. Thanks to Chelsey Dorman, Vivian Vanity was born! 

After meeting Chelsey I had stumbled upon a group of girls who also were living their dreams of modeling. I was shocked to see Vision of Punk was ran by just one man!! ONE! How he did it I have no idea, but he was busting his assets everyday to help all these girls. I owe a lot of my success to Andrew and the girls at V.O.P. They not only took me in as family, they helped encourage me to be who I am. No matter what society says. 

After a few weeks, a photographer named Andy Campos found me on Instagram. Shocker I know. His work was pure art. I immediately fell in love with his vision. We bonded over creative ideas and pure epicness was achieved. In the next few blogs I'll touch base on all of my shoots with Andy and others.

So still wondering who Vivian Vanity is? I'm just a girl looking to show others you can be the girl next door or the girl next door to the cemetery. (or dude lol) Either way, you're awesome! Stick around, I've got lots to show you guys! 

xoxo,
Viv
