Everyone has a blog these days, or in some way shape or form it seems is associated with blogging! So when I discover or should I say stumble onto blogs that are new to me & have that all around it factor, it makes me giddy like a child.

NYFW: Mataano Spring 2011


Ayaan & Idyl Mohallim are no novice to the fashion industry. The Somali bred twin-sister design duo honed & nurtured their craft remarkably at iconic houses like Jill Stuart & Betsey Johnson before launching Mataano in 2008. During NYFW, I took a moment to chat with the sisters during their S/S 11 presentation at MOBiA(Museum of Biblical Art)just a few steps from Lincoln Center!

Finally: My Meeting With Thiago Santos



During this past NYFW I had one of the most exciting experiences of my life, meeting Brazilian born model Thiago Santos. If you follow this blog then you know the severe fandom I have for Thiago, but after our meeting I can sincerely say it has turned to admiration (& not only because I am about 10 yrs. his senior either). I was able to talk with him for about an hour, picking his brain asking all of the questions that I had mentally prepared in anticipation of this day & he enthusiastically answered every one. He was such a pleasure to talk with, so open and down to earth. One of the main things that I took away from our conversation was the unwavering moral foundation that he bases his life upon. It was apparent that he is extremely focused & that all of the lures & temptations of this industry are not able to sway him in anyway! You can see a few more pics. I took below & be sure to follow his new blog Thiago's Notebook!
