Angela Simmons Gets Her Sexy On In ‘Vibe Vixen’

Rising fashion mogul and socialite Angela Simmons is featured in the latest digital issue of Vibe Vixen. She styled in various looks in her pictorial shoot which was shot by David Joseph Perez. For this feature, Ang talked to Shanel Odum about dealing with negative comments, working hard for everything that she achieved so far, her NYFW presentation, her brand, being a boss, dealing with negativity, reality TV, fame, her legacy and much more.

Ang dressed in brands including Bellenbrand, Aryn K, Carolinna Espinosa, Forever 21, McGinn Collection, Giuseppe Zanotti, Phoenix Keating, Pretty In Punk, Arden Wohl, Phoenix Keating, Marie France, Van Damme, McGinn Collection and Erickson Beamon in her spread.

On dealing with negative comments and working hard for everything that she’s achieved:

“I’m used to the comments but at the end of the day I’m not concerned, because I know how hard I work. I can go to my dad and my uncle for advice, but other than that, anything that I have today, I’ve worked for. I pour my heart into it, and I live, sleep, breathe, eat it. I’m not going to sit here and prove to someone that I’m working; you’re going to see for yourself.”

On her NYFW presentation:

“I really wanted it to glow in the dark with neon. I wanted it to be interactive. I didn’t want it to be something you just come to, look good and walk out. I wanted you to take something from the experience, have a good time and want to stick around for a while, which everyone did. The point of the presentation was to present different up-and-coming designers that I showcase on my website. I was definitely inspired by different artists that I brought in. I think they did a tremendous job with what they did—color therapy. We had so many talented people there. It was an amazing night. It was everything I imagined, from the balloons to the photo booth, to the people who came out and supported me. I was extremely happy with the outcome“.

On her brand:
“AngelaIAM.com came about because there are so many different elements of me, and I like to share with people who follow me, so I needed a home for all of it, to be able to sell these products. So people could get their hands on the things that I wear or the products that I like. It’s kind of like a boutique“.
