CLASH of the CAMERA[men]S

here at thekommonthread, we have always tried to bring you the crème de la crème....we have a knack for seeing talent in its prime [ex. unkommonkolor]. so we present to you two very talented photographers who have graced us with the opportunity to put their talent to the test in our first ever...

[CLASH OF THE CAMERAS]

name: The REAL Jeremy Biggers
age: 27
place of residence: Dallas, TX (and surrounding areas)
camera specs: Canon XT
blog url: http://www.jeremybiggers.blogspot.com,
3 words that describe you as a photographer: "what's this button?"
your dream photoshoot involves: 14 bottles of Elmer's glue, two midgets and some hot air balloons full of phonebooks




name: FREE
age: 20
place of residence: Houston,TX
blog url: http://www.theycallmefree.blogspot.com

3 words that describe you as a photographer: Energetic, Vivid, and GOOD! lol
your dream photoshoot involves: Barack Obama's Inauguration

HOW THIS WORKS: we will post 10 different things that both photographers will have to shoot. they have the same amount of time [until next friday] to turn in this "portfolio" to us...at that time we will post those pictures side by side so that YOU [our dedicated readers] can vote on who you think deserves to be crowned winner of the CLASH of the CAMERAS.

unlike the upcoming election... there will be no name calling, questionable running-mate choices, nor plumbers named Joe. only pure talent and an opportunity for these two young men to show us what they've got......so stay tuned and be prepared to VOTE [as if you don't hear that 100 times a day already].

kommonthread krave

so, i'm sitting here [post-IKE] and feeling very blessed to be in good health, position, and mind so i thought....what better to do that to post on thekommonthread? i know i have been a very neglectant mother to my baby [the blog for those who don't understand SYMBOLISM ...please i don't need any pregnancy rumors.] but when life gives you lemons....make lemonade! well here's a couple things that have been burning a hole in my thoughts...PLEASE COMMENT so i won't think i'm crazy for yearning after fall accessories and a movie full of 40 year olds. enjoy!

1. SATC...need i say more? [release date 9/23] yeah and i don't need all that hoo-hah aka bonus features and extended bloopers along with the soundtrack. i just want my patricia field manipulated fashion and that is all.....for the low, low price of $16.86












2. psychedelic print shrooms arent the only thing that can make your life groovy....watercolor and tie dye are revived in bright, bold color combinations. [note: i would definitely loose the 5th-grade front tie and replace with a hard-core rocker belt to balance the femininity and masculinity of the fit] Eloise Chiffon Dress $24.80
















3. braid my hair doesn't matter if they're a la nicole richie...or lc....braids are the no-nonsense way to add romance and glamour to your everyday 'do.


















4. yellow nail polish simply put...sunshine on a cloudy day [no pun intended]. Sephora by OPI in Cab Fare $9







5. boot/sandal hybrid the only case where the hybrid looks BETTER than the original Tina Buckle Ankle Bootie $169














6. political tee in case you have been living under a rock...one of the toughest decisions in our generation's history is about to take place in less than 2 months. i just like this tee cuz it says what it needs to without plastering obama's face on the front. 'Hope is the new black tee' $14.50














7. skin is in whether it be crocodile or snake......animal planet has a whole new meaning to fall fashionistas. BDANIELA in purple croco $68 or Leather Snake Clutch in green leather $60















8. statement watch do what u do but watch my......well timepiece. watches that look like they were borrowed from your boyfriend/ grandpa/ any other non-feminine male.....are totally...worth your time. Nixon Kensington watch $129.95














9. [non-slutty] school girl blazer well i had to wear uniforms throughout my k-12 experience...however..our attire never looked so fab! gossip girls glamour with a touch of military this jacket gets an A++ from me. Midge Jacket in heather grey $98




















10. flowers in my hair whether its one small daisy or a headfull of roses, flowers in your hair are a good way to step up the romance of an outfit as well as serve as an alternative to the pocahontas/hippie headbands of summer.

ok imma stop now...i think i'm losing brain cells from staring at the pc and the lack of education due to the aftermath of ike. but i am definitely too blessed to be stressed. hallelujah hollaback!
