Designer Joseph Altuzarra has been rumored to be the new Alexander Wang. Like Wang, Josheph Altuzarra is extremely young, only 25 years old, and brings the fresh style of the streets to an older public, and check out those BOOTS!
I went for a vintage tuxedo style onesie with a pair of nude Christian Louboutins and a Givenchy necklace. My good friend, Betsy, wore a vintage full-feathered skirt styled with a corset and a lace top. She finished off the outfit with a pair of Chanel ankle booties. We both love mixing high and low to create a classic look.

I believe it can. Art critics dismiss fashion photography for its commercial appeal and familiarity. Yet, photography as a medium has been exhausted. Fashion photography focuses on the fundamentals of light and framing. Plus, it's nice to look at. Some of my favorites are Irving Penn, Steven Meisel, Herb Ritts, Annie Leibovitz, and Ryan McGinley.
