Reality Chic

Did you know that people are actually paid to make women look beautiful(Sarcasm)?? Yea, me either! And according to photographer Nicholas Routzen that’s just what he did!

Read Below:

(Excerpt from NYMag The Cut)Photographer Nicholas Routzen explained that Crystal looks the way she does because the photos were “…taken from a higher angle with a wider lens.” But he also added, “I shaped her…I did nothing that I wouldn’t do to anyone. I’m paid to make women look beautiful.”]

As if being a beautiful woman is only attainable by the infamous ways of Photoshopping!  Or instead of beautiful maybe he should of just stated, “I’m paid to make women look PERFECT?!” So once again another industry mishap shows up everywhere in the blogosphere and internet.

By now if you’ve read my Profile or About Reality Chic section you know that I’m an unemployed marketing major who just happens to be an aspiring stylist/realistic fashion blogger. And if you have continued to follow me, you most certainly know not much has changed. There for a while there were stints of pity and well…to be blunt …worthlessness. Then soon followed by my many hours of mindless t.v. and of course the morning ritual of 4 consecutive “morning shows” (which I can’t say I’m completely cured of, I just love Regis and Kelly..I mean who doesn’t?)

Graduates, 2009!

However, after realizing I’m not the only one in this so-called “pity party” thanks to me checking my twitter status at 11:30 this morning and it reading “Twitter is currently over-capacitated”.  It got me thinking….(please read as if you were surprised) “HEY! I’m not the only one with nothing better to do than play on Twitter at 11:30 in the morning…THERE’S OTHERS”! So after a long thinking process over the past couple months and confirmed today by Twitter. I’ve decided to cheer up! After all I believe there might be a need for some cheering up after the graduation of recent May of 2010 graduates…not to be Debbie Downer or anything. Because there is obviously still hope…really! This all brings me to my title:
