Ricardo who is by the way is opening an exhibition in Brooklyn today (June 12, 2010) "Colores Carnales: A Festival of Painted Flesh," opening Saturday, June 12, 2010, at the Casa Frela Gallery, 47 West 119th Street, NYC, between Lenox and Fifth Aves in Harlem. The opening will run from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
A Storm in Rio photographed in (you will never guess where ...) Brazil, exactly ;-) by one of our favorite photographers
Ricardo Hegenbart. We really loved what Ricardo did, it is not your typical Brazilian shoot. But don't get me wrong we love the Ipanema colorful stories (it will sure never get old) but Ricardo's vision was spot on for this fashion spread that we wanted brazilian but at the same time dramatic and sexy ... fantastic job!

Update Sunday June 13, 10.00am:
So As we have told you below things will be "normal" starting moday. Bello's new server had to take some rest during the weekend once reaching his maximum capacity. A capacity that will be solved by monday morning. On the positive side, this means that in two days we had over 100,000 readers ... seriously we almost fainted looking at the numbers! I know it crazy. Thank you for your understanding but this is super exciting!!!!!
Update:
Things are back to normal, for now ... the site will get a full recovery monday morning we've been told :-)
Update Saturday June 12 3.00pm:
Bello mag official site is taking a short "break". Don't tell anyone but that is because over 50,000 people have visited the site in less than 10 minutes, even if we have planned on "a lot of people" we did not really planned on "that many people" ... so thank you we are very flattered ;-) In the meantime enjoy the OhLaLa preview while the technical team (so not us this time) is working on the site :-) Or just go out to enjoy your weekend ...
