Holy Grail

Inspiration is everywhere and I recently found it Brooklyn. Home to famous faces like Jay-Z, Mos Def and Eddie Murphy, this city is full of creative energy. Having played the backdrop for my latest shoot, I couldn’t help but become completely mesmerized by several blocks of murals tagged by famous graffiti artists in Bushwick. Brought to my attention by my photographer friend Vincent, he opened my eyes to a whole new world I never knew even existed. To learn more about this secret gem, click here!

Mr. Moto

Motorcycle jackets have earned themselves the nickname “moto” since becoming a staple season after season. If you’re looking to add a bit of badassness to your wardrobe, this is the piece that will surely make you feel like your living on the edge. From Givenchy to Armani, the biker-inspired leather jackets were being shown over all the runways again last February, but with a bit of a makeover. From different colors to innovative detailing, designers decided to give their take on the edgy skin. If you’re planning to purchase, I suggest investing. Yes, you will pay more now, but will have it for years to come to enjoy. With only 55 days left until Christmas, it might not be a bad idea to ask Santa to add one to your list. Just a helpful thought!

Style Diary: Marisa Minicucci

Last Friday, I crossed the border into Canada to visit the showroom of fashion designer, Marisa Minicucci. For those you unfamiliar, Marisa is an accomplished designer in Montreal with over 30 years of experience in the world of fashion. Her latest creation, MM (the label), is a line of high-end ready-to-wear jackets that are unlike anything I’ve seen before. The fabrics, cuts, and detailing alone would make Karl himself blush. Not only will these jackets make heads turn, but several can morph into completely different pieces, offering its owner a sense of versatility with the zip of a zipper or pop of a button.

With less than 24 hours to spare, I only had time to check into my hotel room, quickly change, view the line and meet with Marisa and her daughter Anisa (who will be partnering with her mother on the line), and film and interview an exclusive video for styleTV. I also thought it might be fun to bring along my camera to snap some photos of my experience, therefore giving you a sneak peek of one my latest projects.
