My Photo Shoot with Silhouette

,

Yesterday I had the honor to to act as a model and partake in a photo shoot with Silhouette, a brand dedicated to creating rimless eyewear, for their look book.  I was so excited, but at the same time super nervous, because  as you know, I'm no model! Even though I do TV segments and feel comfortable in front of that camera, being in front of a camera like this is completely different.  The photographer, Andreas Hofer, was a saint.  He coached me through the 2 1/2 hour shoot and made me feel really confident.  We shot on top of a roof deck downtown that over looked NYC. The biggest challenges – not smiling, the wind and trying to ignore all of the people who were watching!

I wrote a more in depth piece on this that will be posted next week on my column on Glamour.com with tons of behind the scenes pics.  Make sure you check it out!

A Clothing Line You Will Love: Yumi Kim

Back in February when I began my partnership as a Young & Posh blogger for Glamour.com a PR company introduced me to the clothing line, Yumi Kim. I've never heard of them before, but absolutely loved everything!  I actually felt like the brand was designed with my lifestyle, personality and figure in mind.  Wishful thinking, but I'm obsessed.  The dress in the photo to the left is by them and recently I visited a new boutique with my friend in Gramercy Park that carried a ton from the line.  I've never seen it advertised or in major department stores, so I had to tell you about it.

Recently, I purchased a silk blazer in navy and my friend bought it in every bright color possible.  Tons of celebs are fans.  Take a look at the site and I'm sure if you're a BeautySweetSpot reader, you'll be a fan too!  Warning: it's not cheap so shop at your own discretion!
