Last week launched issue #7 of  Style Sample Magazine, in which I was a featured writer. I was thrilled when asked to contribute an article on an up-and-coming fashion photographer.  My piece features the work of Shae Acopian Detar from Everything Style, a fresh looking blog that has an amazing collection of vintage on display.

What a breath of fresh air to have blogger Shini Park of Park and Cube on the cover.  I always enjoy reading a fashion blog void of pretension and faux aesthetic.  She’s so cute too!  You won’t find an agape model mouth pose on that blog for sure and that’s why I love it.

Lastly, when reading about my girl Geri (of Because I’m Addicted) being featured in Women’s Wear Daily I saw that Style Sample Magazine was also listed as one of their chosen “Visionary Fashion Websites.”  Major props to Tamia, its creator!

I’m kinda zonked right now from a hilarious and fun filled evening but this photo was too good to not share. And it was the only one I took the whole evening! Karla, Geri, and I are demonstrating some signature blogger facial expressions: the laugh, the pout, and the smirk.

A big thank you to Lucrecia of Fashion is Poison who provided the vintage clothing and a cool makeup artist on set. Shout out to Kat at Urban Decay. What a treat to meet and hang out with the L.A. fashion bloggers. Look forward to seeing you all again.  I’ll be adding you to my blogroll, no doubt.
