Ne-Yo & Don Bleek…After the performance, I met with Ne-Yo backstage. He wore a white tee-shirt and $420 Christopher Kane Creature sweatpants which Kendrick Lamar last rocked here. You can get these sweatpants at MatchesFashion.
Thanks to the good folks over at Famous Footwear, yesterday morning Friday (August 2), I was invited to ABC’s ‘Good Morning America’ Summer Concert Series which took place at Rumsey Playfield in Manhattan’s Central Park and featured a live performance by Grammy Award winning R&B singer/songwriter Ne-Yo. The multi-platinum recording artist performed some of his chart-topping hits including “Let Me Love You,” “Don’t Make Em Like You,” “Let Go,” “Give Me Everything,” “Miss Independent,” “Closer,” and other tracks during his set. After the concert, I and other bloggers/editors traveled to Swifty’s for brunch and a styling session with celebrity stylist Diandre Tristan. He has styled celebrities such as Robin Roberts, Tamar Braxton, Justin Timberlake, Diane Sawyer and more. During the styling session, Tristan brought out some models who styled in a few Fall 2013 ensembles from affordable fashion stores including Zara, H&M, Gap and sneakers from Famous Footwear.

Am I trippin? Or does Ne-yo always seem to be out of sync? I mean, album 1 and 2 I was a huge fan, but his swag is seemingly comical. Not trying to diss, but he is no trend setter. Although he should be. Like I tell my potnahs, “You have to be able to walk the line between overdoing it and making a statement.” Everything is not for every-Body. Neyo tries too damn hard! He should holla atcha boi! I could get him right fa-sho…no homo, lol.
