THE JAESYN BURKE GENUINE CROCODILE AND SWAROVSKI CRYSTAL SUNGLASSES, WITH MATCHING CROCODILE BOW TIE. MODEL: Boom Shakalaka(Ja'Quay) PHOTO BY Antonio Guerrawww.jaesynburke.com

MERCHANT OF THE WEEK: LITTLE POCO



Say hola to Little Poco! Everything you need to add a little Latin flavor to your child’s lifestyle. I’m particularly taken with the guayaberas (pronounced at my house as why-a-ver-us) for the papitos and the hand-embroidered poblano dressfor the mamacitas. I am fully coveting both.

From the website: “Maybe it’s because he looks like a mini-man, or that he stands out at the playground. Nothing makes Abuela smile more than seeing her little boy in a guayabera.” I feel the very same way.
Oh. And don’t miss the piñata and futbolistas onesies with a vintage illustrations. Fantastic.

STREET CRED:"HOT" FIND



I found (and by found I mean purchased) this sterling silver eagle cuff at Hot Trash Vintage for only $29.00.  It obviously spoke to me.

They don't carry men's vintage clothing (Bummer) but the women's vintage and accessories including the jewelry is ridiculous.

Alison Monrose describes herself as Owner, Treasure Seeker and Time Traveler. I would have to agree.

Check out her stuff at Hot Trash Vintage now in the Dekalb Market located at 138 Willoughby Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201.

The beautiful Jessica Alba and her husband, Producer Cash Warren paid me a visit today at the boutique. Cash (We're not really on a first name basis,lol) purchased some items and he and Jessica graciously posed with me for this pic. I was soooooooooo stoked.  

After perusing the market,  the couple came and sat out in front of the boutique and talked with some of their friends for about an hour.

Great folks.

DESIGNER OF THE DAY: JACKIE YO



Met fellow Designer Jackie Yo the other day when she walked into my boutique withher friend Brian (Hi Brian!!!). 

noticed her outside before she even walked in because I was checking out her 
outfit.  

The piece that specifically caught my eye was a really dope, double-face 
necklace that the stylish fashionista had made. 

She purchased a lizard ring from me and prior to them leaving we had a great 
conversation about collaborating (Can you say EXCITED?).

I emailed her to make sure she had my contact information and she replied. 


Hi Briian!
Thanks for sending your info. It was so cool meeting you and checking out
your work yesterday. I am wearing my lizard ring now. It's wild! I keep
noticing people looking at it and someone on the train thought it was real!

I'd love to hang out sometime. If you are free later this week or this
weekend, let me know!

Jackie


SWEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTT!!!!!

MY INTERVIEW ON NRG BLOG TALK RADIO

I was interviewed today on the New Radio Generation (N.R.G.) radio program. Click on the link and take a listen.  http://www.blogtalkradio.com/goproradio/2012/07/21/nrg--new-radio-generation

Model: Camell Page

I photographed model Camell Page yesterday. Camell is on his way to becoming one of best male models of color since Tyson Beckford. His energy and sense of humor along with his physique will surely take him far in the world that showcases very little of our beauty and intensity as a positive. We've shot several times over the last 2 years and he always brings 110%. Camell has some exciting campaigns on the horizon and is also creating his own clothing line.
