Topless African Beauty

My present research involves the comprehensive study of body painting and the beauty of the African woman in her nudity. So, if you visit my website and you see topless African maidens, please do not mistake it for a porn site. There is no single act of sex in my first feature film where the actress playing the lead role must be nude for the body painting scenes.

Surma Body Painting

Surma
The Surma, a pastoral people, originate from the remote plateaus of southwestern Ethiopia, near the border of Sudan. On festive occasions, Surmas decorate their bodies using chalk and earth pigments to create patterns. Youngsters begin learning the art of body painting at an early age by imitating their parents. Possessing little in the way of material things, the Surma's bodyart is their prime means of artistic expression. Close friends often paint their faces with identical designs to reveal their bond with one another, as you see with these children.

LG Teams Up with Victoria Beckham and Eva Longoria Parker to Promote Personal Style and Latest Handsets - LG Lotus Elite and LG Rumor Touch

LG Teams Up with Victoria Beckham and Eva Longoria Parker to Promote Personal Style and Latest Handsets - LG Lotus Elite and LG Rumor Touch


Victoria Beckham

LG Mobile Phones launches multi-faceted campaign inviting consumers to ‘flaunt their fashion touch’ through two uniquely stylish touchscreen devices



Eva Longoria Parke

SAN DIEGO, CALIF. – April 26, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — LG Electronics MobileComm U.S.A., Inc. (LG Mobile Phones) has forged an alliance with fashionable stars Victoria Beckham and Eva Longoria Parker to promote the company’s latest touchscreen mobile phones, the stylish LG Lotus Elite and LG Rumor Touch. The integrated campaign, called LG Fashion Touch, promotes personal style and the idea that mobile phones have become the latest in fashion communication. The partnership includes a print and online campaign, series of MTV vignettes, consumer promotion and an event in Los Angeles to celebrate the integration of fashion and technology.

The LG Fashion Touch campaign pairs two of the most fashionable phones with two of the world’s most well-known fashion enthusiasts. LG partnered with the famous friends because their unique personal styles complement the design aesthetic of the handsets and their friendship aligned perfectly with the dual product launch. LG Lotus Elite is bold and edgy, which is a reflection of Victoria’s style. LG Rumor Touch is a sleek and more classically designed handset, which is a reflection of Eva’s style.

“We don’t believe you should have to compromise your personal style or productivity, when it comes to your choice of mobile phone,” said Ehtisham Rabbani, vice president of marketing and innovation for LG Mobile Phones. “With new touchscreen technology, LG Lotus Elite and LG Rumor Touch deliver the best in functionality and fashion. We are thrilled to be working with Victoria and Eva; their involvement in the campaign highlights the relevancy of our design credo and reinforces the LG style heritage.”

The series of MTV vignettes, produced and directed by documentarist Doug Keeve, depict Eva and Victoria and two very talented up and coming fashion designers -Yotam Solomon and Oday Shakar - as they collaborate together in preparation for the big fashion event in Los Angeles May 24. Tasked to create groundbreaking pieces influenced by the idea of being fashionable in a technological and socially-connected world, Yotam and Oday use their LG phones to gather inspiration for their designs. Their creations will be revealed at the event.

The print ads launch the week of May 3 nationally and will run side-by-side, allowing readers to clearly visualize the duality of the campaign. The ads were shot by fashion photographer, Ellen Von Unwerth and feature Eva and Victoria posing with their respective phones. Both women wear fashions that reflect their personal style and the design aesthetic of their handsets. The ads are featured in weekly magazines as well as fashion-driven monthlies. Banner ads also feature the images.

To engage consumers, LG created the Fashion Touch Style Quiz on the LG Fashion Touch Facebook page www.facebook.com/LGFashion. By taking the quiz, fashionistas can find out what phone and style best suits them and participants will be entered into a sweepstakes for a chance to win tickets to the LG Fashion Touch event in May.

To celebrate the partnership and the culmination of the campaign, Victoria and Eva will host an LG exclusive party that will reflect the intersection of fashion and technology. Guests of the party will include celebrities, stylists and fashion insiders who are known for flaunting their unique ‘fashion touch.’

The stylish LG Lotus Elite and LG Rumor Touch are successors to the popular LG Lotus and LG Rumor. LG and Sprint are proud to offer consumers LG Lotus Elite and LG Rumor Touch in an expanded variety of stylish colors. These sleek and fashionable messaging devices offer users a more advanced handset with the additions of touchscreen technology and new exclusive features. Available in new colors on April 19 in all Sprint retail channels including www.sprint.com, LG Lotus Elite will come in red and black for $99.99 with a new two-year service agreement and $50 mail-in rebate and LG Rumor Touch (currently available in black) will now be available in Red and Purple for $79.99 with a new two-year service agreement and $50 mail-in-rebate.

PADOVA, Italy, March 18 /PRNewswire/ — CARRERA, international iconic fashion eyewear brand, presents its new worldwide marketing campaign: striking images, amid bright reflections and vibrant colours, which will surely attract the attention of the public all over the world.



Devised and created by MRM Worldwide Italia, the Digital Thinking Agency of McCann Worldgroup, the campaign's message is direct and effective, thanks to a clear and engaging headline: "SHINE ON", an encouragement to let our inner light show through, to live life to the max and with enthusiasm, wearing CARRERA frames and sunglasses.

Featuring original photography, the campaign portrays young men and women in an urban location lit up by warm light which encompasses everything it meets, underlining the dynamic and timeless spirit of the CARRERA brand. A spirit which took root in 1956, the year the brand was born and since then has successfully grown and developed in the eyewear and sport sectors, while still maintaining its "on the road" soul, decisive and constantly orientated at seeking a winning performance. This is why today CARRERA is the brand of choice for anyone who wants to be authentic and fashionable, without compromising.



The urban location provides the ideal setting for the campaign to unfold. The campaign’s super-trendy hipsters, brimming with the same youthful appeal of the frames and sunglasses they are wearing, are self-assured and exude a powerful vital energy that seems to be part of their very being.

The roll out for the "SHINE ON" campaign is expected in mid March 2010 and will take place through a broad and complete mixture of media both in Europe and the United States.

In particular, besides an important press and outdoor campaign in the most trendy international locations, from Miami to New York, from Barcelona to Paris to Milan, substantial implementation is also planned for digital media channels, with the launch of the new website carreraworld.com and an expressive social media platform which will allow the brand to bond with its public. To round off the project, there are plans for ongoing high-profile special events, public relations and music product placement activities.

The campaign depicts the world of "Fast-Laners", young men and women who live fast lives and always to the fullest, who prefer an individual style which goes beyond fleeting trends. The new images transmit the spirit of the CARRERA brand, the brand for those who are not afraid to live their life to the max, in the fast lane, constantly revving the passion accelerator.

Roberto Vedovotto, Chief Executive Officer of Safilo Group, stated: "We are enthusiastic about the success that Carrera is experiencing all over the world. It is a strategic brand for Safilo, in which we are investing a lot and which we believe still has great growth potential. Wearing a pair of Carrera glasses means expressing your personality, without compromises, while feeling part of a large community. Being oneself but not being alone. This is why our marketing campaign also has its foot on the accelerator in social network channels."

CARRERA presents original and stylish creations for the coming season with a collection that has a winning blend of unmistakable style and premium materials. The new eyewear designs are guaranteed to turn heads.

The CARRERA collection of optical frames and sunglasses is designed by Enzo Sopracolle, and produced and distributed by the Safilo Group.

African Beauty Is...

Oluchi Onweagba, the Nigerian model is an example of an African beauty discovered in M-Net's Face of Africa competition.

African beauty is about being proudly African, whether you’re dark or not. It’s about celebrating your unique and distinct features. There is no-one like us. You can tell an African a mile away.

Christabel Momodu is Black and Beautiful

I never heard of her until I came to Lagos last August and saw her photographs in the new Supple magazine and I was impressed. But when she came to say hello to the Publisher and Managing Editor, I did not pay attention to her, because I was very busy. Then when she came around again, I had time to talk to her.

Christabel is tall, dark and lovely and a beauty queen in Lagos. She understands English, French and Yoruba and some Igbo and Hausa.
She has been the only female I welcome to sit and chat with me in the office and seeing her on the cover of Allure magazine of The Vanguard newspaper in Nigeria was cool as she came yesterday looking like she just stepped out of the cover of Vogue, in long wavy black har and tight fitting black skirt. She interrupted my work, but I did not mind.
I gave her my popular love book before she left and I am looking forward to seeing her again.
Christabel is an epitome of beauty with dignity.

The Unbraider for Those Who Love Braids

We need competent and honest distributors for the revolutionary Unbraider in Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, Senegal, Mali, Burkina Faso and Guinea.

You can contact me directly or contact Natasha Anderson-Imara.
See details below.

The Unbraider has been invented and special engineered for hair stylists to save them from Wrist pain, strain, and weakness.

Wrist pain is a problem that can really have a negative affect your everyday life and since many people do hair for their friends or children, they can encounter this problem. Natasha Anderson-Imara, president of Glamour Devine first encountered this problem when speaking with stylists who were new to braiding and cornrowing. Many stylists use a twisting technique or rattail comb when unbraiding hair, causing undue stress on the wrist. One client solved the aching wrist problem by wearing wrist braces during the more active portions of her practice. Her e is another solution.

The Unbraider has been engineered to take down 6 to 8 braids at a time.
The only product on the market designed and engineered to do this.
Has been tested across the United States by braiders and braid wearers.
A hand held tool that will allow you to take down your braids 8 times faster.
Engineered and designed to take down Micro Individuals and Corn Rolls.
Engineered and designed to minimize hair breakage and loss.
Designed to both take down braids while at the same time comb out unbraided hair.
This is a 2-in-1 process.

FOR ADULTS ONLY: When Molly Sims Wore A $30 Million Diamond Bikini

Kentucky born super model and actress Molly Sims left many men gasping for breath when she stepped out in this revealing $30 million Diamond bikini!



It was the must see bikini in the February 14, 2006 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.

The multi-million dollar diamond bikini, designed by Susan Rosen is made up of over 150 carats of D flawless diamonds.

Here is the YouTube video of Molly Sims modeling the $30 million Diamond Bikini.

African Women Are The Most Beautiful

The most beautiful thing. How do I put it? Its so spiritual. The most beautiful thing is a woman’s body. If you want to understand nature in its perfect stage, you have to look at the woman’s body, the contour, and the whole essence of a woman’s body is so amazing, especially African women.

And that is even important to me because for a long time African women are looked upon as if they are not beautiful, whereas they are the most beautiful that nature has ever created , that is one of the attraction and even more so fashion allows you, if you are an artist fashion is very quick it allows you to express quicker, because clothes comes and goes very quicker than magazines than buildings. Everything follows trend, fashion, interior, architecture. Of all of these fashion moves really fast and I love the pace
