on the way to our first meeting with Sam Jones we didn’t know what to expect…we were all “like what are we doing and where are we going…what is she going to be like?”. now mind you, this anxiety was based on a preconceived image due to her online persona…a pot smoking, midget loving, semi-hipster (eek…sorry) who has a social media following with a “friend request” wait list. basically we were scared (side note: scaring us doesn’t take much hence why we never visit the outer boroughs or take the subway). man, we couldn’t have been more wrong about this gal. the minute we met Sam we felt as if we had been friends for years; she was warm, welcoming and so adorable.
this lady is a modern day renaissance woman…as chief creative officer at marketing and pr agency, A Higher Society, co-founder of leather bow tie line Barnaby Jones NYC and star of her hilarious web series At Home With Sam Jones, this hot biatch puts the “B” in balance. a true inspiration to the less dominant gender (we don’t support this notion but hey, see women’s suffrage), Sam has a work ethic that would rival donald trump (omg! Sam, you should totally be on the apprentice!). learn more about the gal behind this hard working entrepreneur below and go to www.ahighersociety.com, www.barnabyjonesnyc.com and www.youtube.com/athomewithsamjones to see everything that is Sam Jones…added bonus: the deuxmoi gals make a cameo in an At Home With Sam Jones episode hereĀ NYC makeover.
