Thanks to Everyone!
I was so happy that my family and friends were able to attend the maurices Main Street Model Search Celebration this past Sunday! It was really cool to get to see my pictures up on the walls! More like shocking! And of course the girls who were working at maurices that day were all so nice and supportive! I am also very thankful and happy that Josie, from The Circle of Love, was able to attend the celebration. As always, she was so sweet! She was able to bring the “big check” she recieved too!
Lots of pictures were taken next to the big size posters of myself....my family was very proud of them! They also pulled out the sharpie and I got to practice a few signatures on the photo books...Haha! At the end, they gave me a few posters to take home (one's that weren't being used) and my boyfriend immediately wall-papered his walls with them!
Thanks to everyone who has supported me throughout all of this! Check out the awesome video recap maurices put together of my experience.
Excited to See!
I am so excited for the open house at maurices when the photos will be revealed. I am shocked at how many photos are going to be up in stores. I didn’t realize it was going to be such a big campaign! This has been a great experience and I have made many great new friends for life.
NOTE: An open house to celebrate the release of Alyssa's photos in maurices stores nationwide will be held on Sunday, Aug., 7, from 1 to 3 p.m., at the maurices at D&F Plaza, 1170 Central Avenue, Dunkirk. Everyone is invited to attend! Mingle with Alyssa, see the photos and enjoy refreshments!
