Simon Duncan Fashion Show

Yaya covers Simon Duncan fashion show I’m still catching up with posts without doing 5 a day, but I figured I’d let y’all in on something. I went to a Simon Duncan fashion show on Halloween rather than trick or treat. My adventure was most definitely a treat starting from the chic location in Brooklyn, NYC I never heard of (Kai Studios), and the fashion and beauty featured in the show was great. The highlight of the night for me was seeing models that had muscles on top of their bones (albeit still sample size slim), diversity in the ethnicities, and models with attitude. Think of your fave girl from ANTM and they probably walked like them.

My camera was behaving very well that day so I figured I’d dedicate a post stritcly to some photography before I continued with the rest of my story.

Check back for the beauty photos & my first tutorial on the look!

Apple vs. Blackberry/RIM

Saw this on Fabulously “Broke” In the City and had to share.

I really have to hand it to Blackberry for making their marketing work with their advertising so seamlessly. They used the same concept as the photograph by Harold Edgerton – which was a microsecond capture of the bullet piercing an apple. Edgerton was considered a “pioneer” in strobe photography – read all about it from Wiki. (yes y’all be your own researcher and know that Yaya got all the goodies for ya!) Well anyway I like how they used an actual blackberry to pierce an apple like a bullet. The things that make me happy…
