I don't know where I have been too have just discovered these two new fresh faces. Models Carmen Solomon (South African) and Sessilee Lopez (Portuguese and Dominican, who was in Kanye's flashing lights video), have been stomping their way into the fashion industry. These two are just so stunning and unique, real shawties.

PS I stumbled on this (click the picture to get to the site) a photography diary. Its pretty cool the photography's have kinda of a much better abercombie/ hipster vibe to them which sounds overdone, but Hedi Slimane does a great portrait.

Some recent purchases sorry you cant really see the jumpsuit. So I am back home from seeing my family, and started my summer job today. I have worked at this camp for a couple of years and the kids are hilarious. They are three to five year old's and they say the craziest things. One kid told me his favorite show was Clean House. While another kid where playing duck duck Goose kept GO GET IT GO GET IT when the kids chased him, regarding to himself. I am glad it's really starting to fee like summer, and cant wait to the holiday weekend!
Facehunter is seriously the best. If you haven't check out his fashion blog , I love his eye, and when I saw these today I was like I need to make my dreads do whatever that guy did to his hair.
I have been really busy attending my family reunion that I haven't had time to blog, and with the death of MJ its been non stop partyin to all of his songs. I downloaded all of his songs the other day including Jackson 5. I really am going to miss Michael. He changed music in so many ways and was so widely appreciated internationally. I was watching the news a literally in every country people where mourning and celebrating his life. Which is amazing.
No words can describe how I feel about the death of Michael Jackson. Its like crazy how shocked I am. His life was incredibly in so many different ways. His music was the soundtrack to my moms life and mine. He was an icon and truly one of the biggest influences to the music industry ever. His video thriller scared the crap out of me but when those zombies danced, amazing. He started so much, its a shame that he died so young. I am upset how much of a hard time people gave him during his life, he did so much and lived a really tough life. All I have to say is that Michael Jackson was the soundtrack to my life.
It wouldn't let me post the video, but I have this image. He was the first to make real music videos with thriller.
Jackson 5 this song along with A, B, C was the soundtrack of my childhood.
Mapei is Stockholm Sweden's bitch. A natural on the mic. This rapper/singer combines her skills with heavy beats. She goes under a variety of categories from elctro to hip hop. Her EP album Cocoa Butter Dairies is only the start, Mapei is currently working with Justice. You will probably jammin to her lyrics real soon.
Today from 1 to 7pm I was in a driving school run by a man named Jason, he was Caribbean I think. It was definitely an experience. Never been to a driving school like it. I took the 8 hour drug and alcohol coarse in order to be able to get my license. Which was basically hours of having to read triple AAA text books and watch 90s movies about teens that get high and drunk then drive without a seat belt, then die. And then there was a movie about the police, and it basically said all police officers think that you are going to shoot them, so do what they say.... I really just want my license at this point.

So recently I have been really interested in graffiti art. Hence the video above. When I was at school we had a graffiti artist come and make free t shirts for us, and we were able to make our own as well. It was a lot of fun, and a really cool way to express yourself. I always love seeing graffiti art on the streets, I think it really adds character. In America graffiti is looked down upon almost all over the country, that you never really see any great graffiti just mostly gang tags. Of coarse since graffiti is considered vandalism. Though now more graffiti artists are hired to do graffiti in certain areas of cities and not just anywhere. Around the world graffiti is widely accepted and encouraged. I remember when I was in Portugal when I was younger the graffiti was so cool and it was all over the city. I found some really cool graffiti and known graffiti artist work that I posted below. I wish I could do this, the creativity that's involved is amazing and very clever.
