Fantasy Prom Makeovers with K.Borgella & Michelle Money


Designer Kareen Borgella and Bachelor Alum Michelle Money created one of the most magical prom makeover experiences at NYC's Grace Hotel on June 6, 2012 for three teenage girls from the Big Brothers Big Sisters organization of NYC. Sydney White, Stephanie Olivares, and Maxine Batchler were selected by the Big Brothers Big Sisters program’s director, Jaime Weinberg, based on performance within the program. All three young ladies attend New Design High School located in the Lower East Side of Manhattan.


The glam squad consisted of Michelle Money, her bff  eyebrow expert/hair stylist Laura Armstrong, from the MMAndLShow, Styling by designer Kareen Borgella, and a number of sponsors including The Finishing Bar by Fox & Jane, Nina Loren accessories, Nina Shoes, and Flirt! Cosmetics.

The girls laughed and were having a blast with the staff, Kareen, Michelle, and Laura.


Sydney and Maxine's mom were almost in tears upon their daughters’ big makeover reveals. Stephanie's mom was sent pictures via text throughout the whole process and was also in awe of the makeover. With all the constant growing expenses needed to send teenagers to Prom, it was questionable if all of the girls were even going to be able to attend. Michelle and Laura, who personally flew in from Utah to participate in the makeovers, along with Kareen, provided an experience that these three young ladies will never forget, and should truly be recognized for providing such a heart-felt memorable experience.
