Carmen Dell’Orefice:Model Off Duty

on May 3, 2011

I was crossing the street on my way to the subway when I noticed the most striking white hair on a lady far ahead. I knew I had to approach her, so I hurried past my subway stop to ask if I could take her photograph. When she turned around I instantly recognized her as the gorgeous model Carmen Dell’Orefice. I have always wanted to take Carmen’s photo so I was so excited when she stopped for a moment. She was just coming back from grocery shopping, looking as gorgeous as ever.

Zelda is known for her wonderful outfits designed from fabrics she has collected all over the world.She loves going out on the town and can be found dancing at the some of the city’s hippest clubs.
