Kenny is gorgeous. Wow. I used the Spanish I know to secure permission from the photographer to use that photo. You should be proud. =)

Also, if I understand correctly, Iman's first photo shoot was also Steven Meisel's (the photographer) first photo shoot. Cool, huh?

Make today a beautiful day.

Greetings, beautiful people! Guess what! No, really. Guess. This is NIA SPEAKS' 100th post! Yay!

I still vaguely remember writing up my first post on a Monday not very much like this one.

Thanks for all of the support. To celebrate, I'm posting the fourth installment of "Beautiful People. Beautiful Things."

For those of you who aren't familiar with this feature, these posts are simple. I'll have photographs of beautiful people and beautiful things, obviously. They are mainly photos that inspire me, make me laugh...or think. They are pretty much photos that I like. l try my best to give credit where credit is due, but if I don't, you'll see that little disclaimer at the bottom.

Here are the next ten! Feel free to click on the pictures to make them bigger.
