FASHION FOCUS: He Does "IT" Right!

(I don’t know this boy, but he knows that he’s doing “IT” right!!!! it might not be your style, or mine, but he owns it and was kind enough to let me shoot the photo… Thanks street boy! You do IT Right!!)

Welcome back kids!

FASHION FOCUS, and that guy up there, are back and revisiting a former topic. The first edition featured lovely ladies and was called “She Does ‘IT’ Right”.   This time we’re giving it to the boys and they are giving “IT” right back. The difference, besides gender obviously, I presented my victims with a few questions to consider:

 

If you could choose a color for your aura, what would it be and why?

What are the first 3 words that come to mind when you think of fashion as it relates to you?

Do you have a childhood fashion icon/rule-breaker? If so, who? Why?

Name 2 articles of clothing (or whatever) that are essential to your “look”

What (in fashion) would you like to see more of?

 

I was so curious know something about these creatures and these questions just popped into my thoughts. I left their responses the way they sent them to me. Even the way a person breaks down written responses says something about their personality. SO….. let’s dive in! Starting with…….

FASHION FOCUS: She Does "It" Right!

 

I don’t know a gay man that can’t recognize when a woman is well put-together.  Most of us have the ability to appreciate a well-dressed woman and apply compliments where they fit. It’s something about the combination of the carefully coiffed hair, the polished and evenly applied makeup, the attractive clothing that is also well-fitting, and the shoe that compliments everything perfectly. A big part of who I am (and a statement I plan to include in each article) is “look how you want to feel”. When a woman feels good about her appearance her entire demeanor is different. Everything about her is different and you can tell because she radiates.

FASHION FOCUS: NOLCHA Fashion Week Flashback – Where did they go?

It’s the FASHION FOCUS, once again. The focus of the moment is all about NOLCHA Fashion week…..2009.

[tires screech, eyes widen, everyone gasps, birds fly off and scatter]

2009?  Well, I’ll explain. One night during Fashion Week, September 2009, I was at a rooftop party with the hubby at the Empire Hotel. I noticed a gentleman striking up quite the conversation complete with Albert. It was a fashion party so naturally they were making the usual introductions and seemed to be getting along very well. I eventually met the guy and his name was Jack Kirk. He told us about NOLCHA and was nice enough to extend invites in hopes that we could attend as many of the shows as possible.

I attended the event solo and I covered the shows using two cameras. I did not have the perfect position for photos, but my second row seat wasn’t too bad either. On this day, I took photos as if I knew I would be using them someday.  Who knew that FASHION FOCUS would be a part of my life and bring these memories out of the trenches of my hard drive?
