sh*@ – the Nikon’s dead…

Dress: Old Navy. Boots: All Saints. Bag: Thrifted (DIY studded). Rings: Snake – LF.
Skull – street vendor
Sorry girls (and guys). Blogger semi-emergency: the Nikon battery wasn’t charged so I pulled out my back up little Sony instead. Hence the not intentional fuzzy shots.
I say back up because it’s small, but not because of quality. Which reminds me: I reeeeally need to find a portable high quality pocket sized camera. I hear the Canon G12 is the shizzz. Any thoughts or recs?
Ok, I digress….. I was running late for work (as usual) so put on this one shoulder dress which I love. Although in the office I was frozen from the AC and had a grey wool cardi over it.
I had a deer stuck in headlights moment earlier today, when a woman downtown in Manhattan asked to take my photograph. When she said she worked for the vogue section of style.com my eyes widened to Rachel Zoe sunglass sized proportions. Not sure if she’ll use the shots she took but that moment made up for my shivering day at work.

    That dress is so pretty. Still looks pretty warm up there. I know what you mean about freezing…every where I go I have to put on a sweater!

    Oh, your dress is sooo cute! With that asymetric collar and those boots, you look sexy and very feminine! Luv it!!!

    Honestly, I love the grainy and fuzzy aspects of these shots from the lo-res camera. It’s very natural, and captures your style and beauty in a different way.

    You’re so lucky! I hope you had fun at fashion week. And you still look fabulous in those photos, even if they were taken with a pocket camera 😀
