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!

Premios Juventud 2011: Nick Verreos & Chica Orbit SHINE in Miami!!!

Boca Sucia...Sensacion Limpia No Matter What...Especially in Miami:

Nick Verreos, Premios Juventud 2011 Miami

Last week I had the pleasure of flying to Miami for Univision Network's "Premios Juventud 2011" (Spanish-Speaking "Teen Choice Awards"). I have gone consecutively for the past several years, as the "Style Guy" for Chica Orbit (the Latina Orbit Gum Girl) and even designed several Custom "Nick Verreos for Chica Orbit" designs for her for the red carpet so I was ready to return to Miami!

The last time I saw Chica Orbit was at the People En Español "50 Más Bellos" (50 Most Beautiful) Party in NYC back in May, so I was excited to reunite with the gorgeous Chica at "Premios Juventud 2011"!!

Miami Beach, view from the Gansevoort Miami Beach Hotel

I arrived in HOT & HUMID Miami (about 90 Degrees Fahrenheit-but with the humidity it felt like 110!) and checked in to the FAB Gansevoort Miami Beach Hotel on Collins Avenue in the heart of South Beach.

I just LOVE that hotel: Perfect location, great rooms, beach and stupendous pools! (photo above)

The lobby also has an immense fish and shark tank that well, you gotta see to believe (photo above)! And of course, there's the chi-chi $100-for-a-skirt-steak STK Restaurant (I never went...not in my budget kids! Instead I dined at a Venezuelan-Argentinian Cafe called "Cafe Charlotte" on Washington Avenue and had an $8.95 Venezuelan Pabellon Thank You VERY MUCH--and it was GOOOOOOD!!!!!!)

Blue Carpet Boy: Nick Verreos, Premios Juventud 2011

But enough about the Perfect weather, perfect beach, oh-so-nice Gansevoort Hotel pool and delicious (and cheap) dining. I was there to attend "Premios Juventud 2011" with my date, the beautiful and ever-so-chic Chica Orbit. The televised awards show were this past Thursday evening at the BankUnited Center at the University of Miami in Coral Gables Florida (about half an hour from Miami depending on traffic).

Best Dressed Couple: Chica Orbit and Nick Verreos, Premios Juventud 2011

Chica Orbit wore a white cotton pique shift dress with short sleeves featuring "Orbit Logo" buttons. I wore my Reiss silver suit, TopMan turquoise blue tie, Brooks Brothers pocket scarf (all bought! Not borrowed , Thank You!) and the Swarovski crystal "Orbit Pin" I made.

Chica Orbit, "Premios Juventud 2011" blue carpet

We arrived right in the "thick of it"--when all the Top Latin American Stars--from TV and Music--were arriving. It was INSANE!! Somehow, we made it through the madness and filmed a fun "vignette" with Univision's "Fashionista", Rodner Figueroa. It aired about 40 minutes into the "Pre-Show" Program LIVE on Univision Network and it was a BLAST to shoot!!!! I got some "Screen Shots" from my TV in case you missed it:

Nick TING: This is the part in the vignette where they put the Orbit Gum "ting" in my teeth---sorry it didn't come through in the photo, but you get the gist :)

After we did the blue carpet, we headed to our Box Suite Section (I know, very chic-chi!), to watch the show (look at the audience above!) and enjoy hors d'oeuvres of shrimp cocktail, sushi, beef skewers, crab cakes and cheese.

I also took some photos with some fans of Project Runway, Orbit Gum (and me!!!), who happened to also be at one of the nearby box/suites: Look at their faces--LOVE THEM!!!!! I had such a fun time with Chica Orbit and doing the "blue carpet" Orbit Gum/Chica Orbit vignette with "my boy", Univision's Rodner Figueroa. All in all, I say it was a very successful Miami trip. Cannot wait to do it again!!!!

I just arrived in Miami--one of my FAVORITE cities in the USA--as well as the World, just two days after returning from my two-week trip to Europe!! (yes, I am trying to rack up LOTS of Frequent Flyer Miles!) Why am I here, you may ask? Well, I am attending Univision's "Premios Juventud 2011" , the Spanish-speaking version of the "Teen Choice Awards", kind of...well, just a bit more FAB than those. The PJ's give awards for both music, TV, movies to winners that are voted on by the Spanish-speaking public.

As the Chica Orbit/Orbit Gum "Style Guy", I've been privileged enough to be invited for several years now with my ever-so-stylish girlfriend, the Chica Orbit. Every year, we have a BLAST walking the "Red Carpet" (sometimes it's purple, so it's not really red...) as well as attend the fun awards show. I've also designed and created custom dresses for Chica Orbit to wear at Premios Junevtud in the past which have been a big hit--and so fun to do!

Premios Juventud Fashion Divas: Nick Verreos, Chica Orbit and Rodner Figueroa

This year, once again I will also be there with Chica Orbit and will also be talking with Univision's "Style Guy", the one and only Rodner Figueroa. So make sure to watch for us on the Red Carpet!!

How my mom (above with my very dapper Diplomat Dad) and grandma and all Latina Women influence me...

Nick Verreos, Chica Orbit And More...at the People Español 50 Más Bellos (50 Most Beautiful) in NYC: The Fuchsia Carpet Report!

Latino Fuchsia Carpet...

Fuchsia Chica y Chico: Chica Orbit and Nick Verreos pose it up on the People En Español "50 Más Bellos" fuchsia carpet

As you read--and saw--in my previous BLOG posting--I had the fun pleasure of being invited to the FAB People En Español "50 Más Bellos" Bash in NYC and walk the carpet with none other than Chica Orbit--the Latina Orbit Gum Girl. It was so much fun to attend this event and even better when the crowd kept yelling our names--and asking us to give them some Orbit Gum :"Quiero Chicle!", they kept insisting. There were so many A-List Latino celebrities at this party that my neck was getting crooked from the back-and-forth turning I was doing. So, of course, it was only natural that I would do a quick "Fuchsia Carpet Report from the 50 Mas Bellos/50 Most Beautiful".

Here are some of my favorite top looks (besides Chica Orbit and the Geek To Chic Winner in my "Nick Verreos Orbit-inspired dress" of course):

Charytin: Dominican Republic-born Latino TV Icon/Diva Charytin looked well, like Charytin should look. FAB-u-LOUS!! Just look at her! The platinum-blond hair, the strapless black satin and bubblegum pink iridescent poly organza gown, the asymmetrical silhouette...it was all DIVINE. A bit "kooky" but still, exactly what I would expect from La Charytin! Grade: B+

Sofia Vergara: Colombian stunner Sofia Vergara wore a strapless very corseted bustier with black pencil skirt design. We all know she LOVES a fitted Va-Va Boom shape, she loves strapless and she loves the "sisters" ...and with this look she surprised no one. At one point, I was ten feet away from her at the party--Sofia, her Blackberry (or maybe IPhone) and her entourage swooshed right by me--and I got a good quick look at Miss Sofia and I have to say she looked TINY!!! "Full figured": No way. Curvaceous Tiny: Si! Grade: B+

Ernesto Sanchez, Editor of PeopleEnEspañol.com: When I saw Ernesto Sanchez I HAD to get a photo of the two of us. I love a man in COLOR! And between my "Orbit Teal Blue" jacket and his aqua blue suit, well, darlings...it was OVER! He gets TEN "Nick Points" in my book.

Kate Del Castillo: Mexico City, Mexico-born actress Kate del Castillo was one of the most elegant ladies of the night. I loved this strapless gunmetal-colored gown with draped and gathered front. Her clean side-swept hair and subdued make-up were the perfect compliments. The clutch (THE Spring/Summer purse!), simple earrings and metallic cuff finished the look correctly. Grade: A.

Eugenio Siller: Mexican actor Eugenio Siller looked handsome in his suit and skinny tie. I wished he would have added a bit of "creativity" to the look--maybe a pocket scarf...something! But it was "just OK" for me. He looked a little more like an Junior Agent at CAA and less a Latin Heartthrob. Next time: Kick it up a notch--just a little bit. Grade: B.

Giselle Blondet: Three Words: You Go Girl! TV presenter Giselle Blondet was "Hot Latina Chic" in this royal blue one-shoulder gown. Giselle loves a gown and we see why here. The color is great and I especially liked that she simplified her hair by parting it, and making it clean and elegant. Yes, those big ol' earrings are a bit Cha-Cha, so she could have done without those. But then again: hello! What part of Giselle Blondet did you NOT understand? Grade: A-

William Levy: Cuban-born actor--and People En Español Coverboy (see top of this posting) William Levy was THE STAR of the night. Let me tell you, when he arrived, the entire Gustavino's place shook!!! I was like "Is there an earthquake?". Nope, it's just William Levy is here and there are maybe 40 women in the party chasing after him! Seriously, I couldn't believe all the grown women--with husbands I'm sure--who dropped kicked anything in their site, to get to him in the VIP area. Such is the life of a "Más Bello" I guess. In terms of what he wore: HOT. Open Dress Shirt: Check. UBER fitted metallic jacket: Check. Skinny trousers: Check. Pocket Scarf: Check. William, watch out, I might be one of the people chasing after you next time :)
