'Vinter i New York' Model Q featured in Published Swedish Article


Hello ALL

One blistering New York Winter Evening, I ventured off to my favorite Whole Foods Market store in Manhattan, Located at 59th street Columbus Circle, enjoying the vibes of the Columbus Circle cozy shopping area. As I was exiting the escalator, A women by the name of Marina Malmgren approached me, first intrigued by my abundance of fine accesories/jewelry, what have you, and second assuming I was a model, which wasn't an assumption in the least far off target :-). She introduced herself to me and informed me that she was a freelance Photographer/journalist for a popular newspaper in Sweden and that she was in New York doing an article on the "Street Fashion" in NYC. She went on to indulge in the fact that my jewelry was wonderful and asked if she could take a few photos of me and my jewelry pieces. Me, being a lover of being in front of the camera, happily replied.... yes!



Today, those images that Marina took were published in the Swedish Newspaper entitled GP. An article highlighting myself along with 6 others Ms. Marina spotted, are the basis of this article and can be found on the website www.gp.se. A brief slideshow is shown here, and of course to view the entire article online, one must subscribe :-). Checkout the slideshow by clicking on the direct link here ->>> http://www.gp.se/gpplus/1.812132-vinter-i-new-york and then scrolling down to the article entitled "Vinter i New York". The entire website is in Swedish so get out your translators! :-) Enjoy guys, and feel free to leave comments here. Ciao!

There are sure to be some surprises!

PRR is a project hosted by and in support of Pink Jams! Working to promote breast cancer awareness to men and women under the age of 40, Pink Jams! works to eradicate the misconception that awareness, self-exam, and mammograms should begin at 40. Learn more about Pink Jams!

At the conclusion of the event, Pink Jams! will provide a special grant to the Capital Breast Care Center in support of their important work. The Capital Breast Care Center, chosen as the 2011 community grant recipient, works to provide women in the Washington, DC area with mammograms and health screenings regardless of their ability to pay.
