It's one thing to be fabulous, talented, or maybe gorgeous... but rarely do we see a REAL triple threat. A true vixen that is Beauty and Brains and a Badass when it comes to spinning plastic on turntables... Her name is DJ Tyger Lily, and yes such creatures of demure sophistication exsist! she is humble, pleasent, and fashionable! I had the oppurtunity of rubbing elbows with her this year in New York, and still till this day, the wise words that she shared with me echo in my ears on a daily basis. We were walking down east village to antique shops and discussing the modeling industry and she says " i mean i'm genetically engineered to do what i do, if you have to stick a finger down your throat to be skinny, then modeling is not for you..." Genetically Engineered? I love it! and that converstation has been my constant fuel in my most pleasurable and discouraging times!
knowing that what we are good at, because we were created to do it and we do it well! but enought on the mind-enlightnment and back on basking in the glow of miss lily... She is awesome and innovative, she had shared with our group how she planned to mix music videos together... mix music videos? how do you even do that? but she does! I mean to see a sister reppin herself to the fullest, I have been meaning to reach out to her since then to send her some kaima pieces and maybe style her one day, but life happens, so while she is fresh on my mind, i thought i would give her tribute on my blog like i do so many other "greats" that i admire!!!
check out Dj Tyger Lily on all the social connections: myspace, facebook, twitter, etc...
but you can get personal with her on her website:

we love DJ Tyger Lily because she reminds us of a new pair of betsey johnson pumps, a trip to fat beats on a spring day, diane von furtenburg wrap dressed drenched in marc jacobs daisy, pop rocks, and the dance floor ;)
