According to Zoe, “inspired by every corner of the fashion world,…the collection comprises wardrobe pieces that are tailored to four different girls: the Parisian Girl, a girl who may have never been to Paris herself, but dreams of what it would be like to travel there, she watches old films and looks through vintage magazines, she is always dressed to impress; the Charlie Girl, she is a confident woman inspired by the star of the iconic perfume ads from the 70s, her look is androgynous and sexy without being revealing; the Downtown/London Girl who epitomizes “London cool” with a love of fashion and willingness to take risks. She is playful and often mixes 60s glamour with sophisticated and elegant sexiness; and the Uptown Girl, who is mature and sophisticated but loves to have fun. She juxtaposes effortless gowns or tweeds and tuxedos with everyday pieces.”

DIY wedding makeup seems to be becoming a popular choice among makeup savvy brides, especially after the reports that Kate Middleton did her own makeup for her wedding of the century. Recently my client, passionate about makeup, came to me on a mission to do her own wedding makeup. I hooked her up with a master makeup artist from Trish McEvoy for a lesson in the proper application and products to last all night and look great in photos. Here are the results!

“The tips I got from the makeup artists at Trish were invaluable! I had the confidence to do a good job and my makeup lasted all night without any touch-ups. Marisol is a master at her craft and knows exactly what you need.” – Erica (Client for 10 years)
There is almost nothing better than a client with a passion for shoes like mine. Check out this blog written by my Brazilian friend about finding the right shoes!
“Sim! Porque este site trata de 2 paixões: culinária & sapatos! As fotos foram tiradas na Saks 5th Avenue, em NYC, onde a gentilíssima Marisol deixou que eu registrasse os sapatos da “estação” que mais gostei. Sempre achei a Saks o melhor lugar de comprar sapatos porque você encontra todas as marcas num só lugar, sem ter que ficar andando quarteirões e quarteirões…” Read more..
My Brazilian photographer friend Camila Girardelli recently turned me on to one of her projects, an award winning movie. Filmed over nearly 3 years, the award winning Brazilian movie Waste Land follows renowned artist Vik Muniz as he journeys from his home base in Brooklyn to his native Brazil and the world’s largest garbage dump, Jardim Gramacho, located on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. There he photographs an eclectic band of “catadores”—self-designated pickers of recyclable materials. Muniz’s initial objective was to “paint” the catadores with garbage. However, his collaboration with these people as they recreate photographic images of themselves out of garbage reveals both the dignity and despair of the catadores as they begin to re-imagine their lives. The movie looks truly fantastic! Check out this trailer and Camila’s wide variety of photography from high fashion to documentary.
