KAYLA GET’S HER FIRST LOUIS VUITTON!

Monday, July 16th, 2012

20120716-030450.jpg

Hey Glammies; Yesturday was an epic day for Kayla because she GOT HER FIRST LOUIS VUITTON handbag in BEVERLY HILLS!!!!! 10 year old Kayla has about 9 designer handbags in her collection including a Louis Vuitton handbag I gave her that she often carries her books in during the school year. HOWEVER, as GLAMMIES know, there is NO EXPERIENCE LIKE GETTING YOUR OWN BRAND SPANKING NEW ONE!!!!!
Kayla was so happy that she literally cried in the store! When the sales associate handed her the bag it was more like a presentation, almost spiritual lol…Kayla said it was like she was being presented with the title of “Being Officially Fabulous”!!!!! Awwww, she’s such a good girl and deserves it!
Congratulations Kayla…May you own MANY MORE!

UPDATE: Kayla as Dorothy!

Saturday, October 29th, 2011

20111029-043914.jpg
Hey Glammies! I had to post an update on EVERYTHING that’s going on with KAYLA!!!!
First off, her photo from the other day made the COVER of Urban Livin’ Magazine!!! WooHooo!
When Editor-and-Chief Helen Bailey contacted me! I almost fell out!!!
At the time Kayla was in school, but I could not wait to pick her up to give her the GREAT NEWS!!!
As soon as she got in the car I told her and she started SCREAMING with joy!!!
Many of you have seen Kayla on this blog many times so you may feel like you know her…but for those who do not…
Kayla the Entrepreneur, Model, Actress… is my 10 year old niece whom I have been raising since she was 2.
I gained legal custody of her at age 3.
Kayla calls me “Mom” and “Aunt Tiffany” because she knows I’m her Aunt, but she knows me as Mom…It seems a little confusing, but not to us…and NOT TO HER!
I have had over 100 people in the past 24 hours ask about her birth parents.
Kayla’s birth Mother is my sister, and Kayla’s father died in Afghanistan in the Marines 2001 before he ever got a chance to see her.
Kayla is a well mannered, well adjusted little girl, who has lots of friends, and a loving family.
She loves. Beyonce, Katy Perry and Justin Bieber, She can’t live without her iPhone, and her favorite food is ANYTHING CHOCOLATE!!! Lol
Kayla also has her own Jewelry Line GLAMGIRLS JEWELRY…a line of jewelry geared specifically for Little Girls, Pre-Teens, and Teens. (We are working on her website LAUNCHING NOVEMBER 2011!)
Kayla is now on Facebook (she’s pretty happy about that too lol) so you can keep up with her there.
