I can't be everywhere at the same time: I'm in Manhattan, keeping my ears to the ground for the fashion beat, and I'm surrounded by needles, textiles, leathers, and an assortment of sewing doodads, as I complete my first, hand-crafted accessories collection (yay for me!).
My Caribbean style posts cannot be negleted in the process, so thus I need fashion correspondents to learn (and help me pull!) the ropes. Throw away all those Stylista or Running-in-Heels misconceptions, right this instant. I do my own faxes and pencil-sharpening, I fetch my own herbal tea, mind you (no more coffee for me), and I don't need some doting fashion-hopeful to fawn all over me.
What I do need, however, are a few intrepid individuals, who are willing to be my eyes & ears at the events & places I simply can't attend or visit. I'll furnish you with backstage passes, behind-the-scenes info, cool contacts, and invaluable journalism/interview/reportage training. All you do, is be your stylish self, scout the scenes, take pics, talk to folks, and report back to me, where you'll get by-lines and full credits/bio & image features on this site, in return.
