Xiaoyu
























Rarely do you meet someone who just radiates peace and calm, packaged in a beautiful exterior. The elegant (and popular) Xiaoyu hails from Hunan, China, and is a welcome addition to the models that grace the Cape Town fashion landscape. She was gracious enough to allow me to take some photos when we met for coffee. I have also not yet encountered, on my blogging journey, someone who photographs this well, except perhaps our mutual friend Nomazulu. 谢谢你。Xiaoyu, little feather.

Arnold Reinecke


Now listen up! It's the second day of the second month of the second millenium AD, ten years after. That... Okay I just thought that was a cool intro but (it's not) so now I realise it has nothing to do with fashion and this gorgeous guy in this post. Ladies and gents, or lady and gent depending on how many people ever see this blog...
I know I have been tardy in updating, and I apologise to all those people who posed for me and I never actually put up their pics. Life happens! So I will make a pledge here and now that I will capture at least one image of beauty per week. Is that amenable? I hope so. And if I can squeeze in a few shots from last year, I will do so. Just...forgive, okay? Right. Enjoy Arnold....isnt he delish? I saw him riding his bike into his complex when I went to get soup fixins, then later, laden with groceries, I stopped him and asked if he'd pose. He was quite sweet and agreed straight away. This is what I like about Afrikaans guys - always polite! Apparently his girlfriend does something similar to what I do...
Sorry ladies, I will look for the single guys for you but it's not like I'm a dating service, now am I??
