Oh Triniwood.... Triniwood...... Triniwood... Triniwood!!!!
What have we become?
To think that we are no longer safe in our own "sweet" country. I will try to stay out of the politricks as much as possible on this blog, but I had to say that something HAS to be done about Trinidad's sad state of affairs.
We live in a lawless, reckless society where the lack of respect for each other has gotten intolerably scary, esp to females. My heart goes out to the family of the young lady murdered yesterday.
We need to do something Trinidad and Tobago... AND FAST!

TnT Erotic Week????
Yip!!!! That's right!!!
It seems we here in Triniwood are doing it taboo style and will be having our very own Erotic Art Week.
"The week-long erotic art event runs from 23rd June to 2nd July, 2009 and will be spread across a number of POS venues. This year the theme is “Open”. Since the discussion on erotica in T&T has, so far, been under-documented and under-exposed, we’re literally “Open” to any contemporary artistic exploration of our erotic ethos," quotes the hosts of first annual event.
Invites have already been sent out via Facebook and to specially invited guests, I think I may need to sneak a peek at one of these events. hee hee

Mas Appeal
TOTALLY forgot to bring this up.... Blond moment, my bad!!!
This issue has been on shelves for a bit, but check out Vibe Magazine's June/July Issue which features the spendiferousness of TnT carnival =)
I particularly love this picture (not because it was my section or anything) but because it captures the "Vibe" of what The Greatest Show on Earth really is!
LAVS it!

Attitude Gyal!
So this review was supposed to be on Fashion Week, instead I will twist it an ummph.
I attended fashion week like my other fashion forward wanna-be-seen Trinis, and I have to say I was impressed (to an extent). Kudos for the whole platform to broadcast Trinidadian and Caribbean creativityand such, as some of the presentations were quite good. On the OTHER hand, give some people an inch and they take a mile, and a mile they went. Off along the people catwalk showing utter nonsense.
Here is where the twist comes in.... ATTITUDE!
I understand models, that you may have been chosen to participate in this auspicious occasion, but the Naomi Campbell diva ISH is not at all necessary. This goes for you as well designers and wanna be socialites out there. I would think that perhaps some young'uns came to fashion week, hoping to meet one of their fav designer with the dream of being inspired and perhaps even being discovered. It certainly was not easy with the turned up noses and the some what unpleasant vibe that I got after the shows. "Who's who" run tings!!!!!
Remember a person is still a person, no matter how small.
Here's the OTHER twist.... I know!!!!! ANOTHER one!
To all you power trippers out there, who feed on the need to embarrass others. NOT cute! I am not a model, but I must admit I have the proportions. I can wear alot of things many people won't or can't, because of my body type. I DID NOT MAKE ME!!! So here's where I take the side of the "model." Fashion is what you wear. Style is how you wear it. That's why most girls who are models, model. They can wear clothes and bring them to life, whether it be couture or jeans and a tee shirt. Please doh hate on the people cuz they cuter than you.
In summary: Be you, everyone else is taken! (but be kind to everyone not just you)
