"Chica Orbit" FABULOSO: Nick Verreos Orbit Gum Case and "Nick Verreos for Orbit" Dress in People En Español!



A DELICIOUS--and FASHIONABLE--Gum Case:




Nick Verreos Chica Orbit Limited Edition Gum Case



As Chica Orbit's "Style Chico" (yes, I just gave myself that title!), I have been attending several FABULOSO Award Show Red Carpets with my most GORGEOUS date--La Chica Orbit, of course! Last month, I attended the 2011 Premios Juventud Awards in Miami as well as filmed a vignette on the "blue carpet". During that awards show, I debuted my exclusive Limited Edition "Nick Verreos for Chica Orbit" Gum Case:



I designed the graphics for this FAB Gum Case which was inspired by the Orbit Gum logo naturally. And then, EACH case was HAND-PAINTED with my original design. I also autographed the Limited Edition cases!

I was "over the moon" to see the results and yes, I got to keep "one or two" for my own use: I have one for Orbit Gum--and one for my Business Cards--oh and one for my Credit Cards...Wait! That's more than two! Oooops!!!



Also--for all my Spanish-Speaking peeps--Check out the new September Edition of People En Español with singer Jenni Rivera on the cover:



I was so excited to open it up and see a photo of our Chica Orbit People En Español Geek To Chic Winner, the lovely Noemi Salazar---who wore one of my original "Nick Verreos for Orbit" designs--a one-shoulder chiffon cocktail dress featuring one of the iconic Orbit Gum prints to People En Español "50 Más Bellos" Party in NYC:

Maybe if I run into a Chica Orbit fan in one of my many travels--I might give you a "Nick Verreos Chica Orbit" gum case--depending on how stylish, fashionable--or yes, if you happen to have Orbit Gum in your bag or purse!!!! We'll see...

If you have been following my blog, you may already know that I have partnered in the last few years with ORBIT GUM--to design "Red Carpet-worthy" dresses for the Latina Orbit Gum Girl, "Chica Orbit", as well as other celebs. Last year, I made a custom one-shoulder gown for Stefania Fernandez, Miss Venezuela 2008 and Miss Universe 2009, using an Orbit Gum print for last year's People Magazine En Español 50 Más Bellos/50 Most Beautiful Gala.


Above is my original sketch for the one shoulder gown I created and designed (and had the fabric made too!!!).

Now That's A Purse: Nick Verreos, Chica Orbit and Univision's "Fashion Guy" Rodner Figueroa, Premios Juventud 2010 After Party, Miami

I also designed a cocktail red carpet dress for the current Chica Orbit--using the same Orbit Gum Print--for her to wear during the 2010 Premios Juventud an awards show for Spanish-speaking celebrities in the areas of film, music, sports, fashion, and pop culture--kind of like a cross between the MTV Music Awards and the "Kid's Choice Awards".

In 2007 for that year's "Premios Juventud"--along with the AMAZING assistance of my NIKOLAKI design partner, David Paul--we created an ivory silk duchess satin "Watteau-back" strapless dress--with custom "Orbit Gum" pillbox hat (very Jackie Kennedy!)-both featuring the Orbit Logo. We even made the scarf to watch one of the gum flavors!

Well, CHICOS, I am back at it again---and soon I will be in New York City to attend the People En Español 50 Más Bellos/Most Beautiful Event and transform one lucky winner from Geek to Chic!!!
(and now for my Spanish-speaking Readers): Buena Suerte y acuerdate: Orbit Sensación Limpia...no matter what!
