It's a wrap for 2011*
So that's it for modelling this year, i worked on my last shoot yesterday on a beauty magazine feature with a great team. My agency had a Christmas get together that afternoon so i rushed to make it straight after with crazy, cool model Alison from New York- this girls vocabulary is just infinite lol
Drinks at the agency were followed by more drinks with friends at lovely Aqua bar on Argyle Street and great urban music at club Cirque De Soir later.
Here's a few pics from last night- I'll be celebrating the new year in Miami from 28th Dec.. Any tips on cool events to check out please email me! contactelsabel@gmail.com

WORLD Celebrate's Eritrean & Ethiopian Culture* :)
It's about time the world got to know our culture- the Habasha culture* Ethiopian & Eritrean nations. Ethiopia's definitely growing with it's positivity in modern entertainment news, aside from the constant portrayal of famine and disadvantages. Eritrea- where I'm from is a much smaller neighbouring country which holds a population of only 3-5 million. Our culture's are almost identical but our mama Eritrea is yet to fully show case her individual pride. She WILL creep up and catch up to the the lime light soon!
Top of my list is our beautiful food! Rich in flavour from herbs & spices your pallet would have never experienced! Wholesome meat/chicken/fish stews, vegetable dishes and salads are all presented on the famous Injera- a thin pancake like bread (not sweet). Traditionally we eat in one sitting, one large round plate with our hands. Our coffee is made with fresh coffee beans- roasted and brewed on the spot into pretty little coffee sets.. Our music- full on Ethiopian beats and Eritrean tempo's both bring me right back to my proud roots and warm my soul.
Don't even miss to recognise the dance TALENT - Beyonce's shoulder and hair whip's, Dutty Whine, Harlem Shake all seem to definitely be taken from traditional Habasha dance. Our most common tribal clothes- all in white i absolutely love, our hair styles and bold jewellery are just stunning, and of course our women are known to be THE most BEAUTIFUL* :)
If you haven't tried our food, google Eritrean or Ethiopian Cuisine in your town or city and visit the most traditional restaurant. Every body I've introduced to the food is HOOKED! :)
But do be a champ and eat together with your guests on traditional large sharing plate.. WITH your hands- thumbs DOWN J COLE!
Here's a video of our traditional HABASHA Music. Ethiopian dance is first, Eritrean follows from 3:10
Lastly- i just came acrss this video with Beyonce for the millenium party in Ethiopia- the crowds energy when she played ETHIOPIS NEW MELLENIUM SONG- got me real emotional :(...

Injera even on Simpsons :)

Carlito's Way*
I was out at Nozomi again on Saturday night- always seem to see someone familiar there. This man wasn't so familiar but the movie he's written was not only Carlito's Way. Had to take a groupie snap! :)
