Celebrity stylist Merika Rock of M. Rock Style in Southern Indiana (she did Kim Kardashian’s hair and makeup last year for Derby) helped get Bonnie-Jill Laflin camera-ready for her Derby festivities.
NBA’s first female scout for the Los Angeles Lakers got glam by Rock and her team of stylists — Amanda Mattingly and Whitney Kayrouz — for the Julep Ball and the Party in Pink.
Rock and company even had to do some last-minute handiwork on Laflin’s outfit.
“We had to do some emergency alterations on her dress,” she said. “We got her done just in time for her red-carpet entrance.”
