I heard this song for the 1st time last September during the MAXAZRIABCBG show at Mercedes Benz Fashion week. I loved it & should have gotten the name and artist back then but I was kind of shy (it’s true).I heard it few randoms afterward but it wasn’t until yesterday while watching TV that I was […]

When I saw that Jeffrey Williams was a contestant on season 2 of Bravo’s show “The Fashion Show: Ultimate Collection,” I was like I know him, but I could not place where. I really didn’t watch the show all that much because it was super cheesy & some of the designers were just so… Plus […]

Some hang out at Lincoln Center during fashion week just to be seen. Some come to work, while others come to work it! This young lady is the latter of the three. I was on my way out of the tents after photographing the Vivienne Tam show headed to grab some lunch when I spotted […]

One of the cool things about being accredited media at Mercedes Benz Fashion week is that you get info on a lot of parties, events & cool swag type things that surround the event.

Fashion Weeks kicks off in one week & I’m supper excited. The closer the date gets, the more anxious I get. My show & backstage access notices are coming in, which his cool but it makes me a little nervous.  I know that I’m going to have a great time, but I will be working […]

When I met Miss. J a few months ago, I was excited on the inside but I could not let that all out.  I am unashamedly a big ANTM fan, well, I used to be because the show has jumped the shark in the worst way but I digress. Seems like everywhere he went the […]

I really enjoy seeing a woman walk like a woman should. You know, that walk with the perfect switch & subtle sway? When I stumbled upon my subject here, she was walking like she had a purpose, like she was that bitch! She looked sophisticated, approachable & warm. It was strange because at this one […]
