Studded leather camera strap, skull & leopard print! iMo straps giveaway: hip DSLR photographer accessories.
Ho ho ho, I’m in Santa mode! Announcing another cool giveaway — this time, for a designer camera strap by iMo.
I love to decorate everything, from iPhones to fingernails. But I never thought about replacing my flimsy, standard neck-strap — until iMo hooked me up with this rock star accessory.
Read on for a chance to win a designer DSLR strap of your choice!
This black beauty is made from genuine leather and pierced all over with six types of studs. Despite the metal, the camera strap is lightweight and feels great around the neck.
The strap works itself seamlessly into my personal style, and is easy to attach to any DSLR camera (like my Sony A-700). The length is adjustable.
Wool gloves: gifted by Etre. This is the Fivepoint Victoria from their latest collection. Etre also has “touchy” gloves with a cut-off thumb and index, so you can still use touch-screens.
Fitted leather jacket: Danier Canada (similar to this hooded leather jacket)
King lion top: Izzue store, Hong Kong (similar to this lion shirt)
iMo’s camera straps are handmade, and tested to hold over 55 kg. They have three varieties: leather, cotton tape, and neoprene with quick release buckles (making it easier to use a tripod).
Here’s your chance to win 1 of 2 camera straps of your choice. All you have to do is:
1) Like iMo’s Facebook page
2) Browse their shop (imostrap.com) and comment in this post, letting me know which design is your favorite. You can also comment on my Facebook wall or email me.
– Bonus points if you Like La Carmina’s Facebook as well.
Contest is open worldwide and ends midnight Pacific Time on Dec 25, 2012. Winners picked at random. iMo is responsible for mailing the strap.
Here are some of my city photos of Hong Kong, where iMo is based. The Central district juxtaposes rich and poor.
Neon signs advertise saunas, implying “special services”…

Quite the contrast from Causeway Bay, home to trendy department stores like the Japanese Sogo.
Cute characters are as popular here as in Japan.

Hong Kong food video & travel tips: best interational restaurants. The Academics, Causeway Bay coffee shop.
If you enjoyed my Hungry in Hawaii travel video, then you’ll drool over my latest Huffington Post Travel episode — a foodie’s tour of Hong Kong!
“Travel TV host La Carmina eats her way through Hong Kong’s hippest international restaurants. With her friend John Skeleton, she visits Taboo, Boqueria, Cafe Habitu, Lily and Bloom, The Academics, and Socialito (in Lan Kwai Fong, Central, and Causeway Bay).”
Watch the new episode above and here on Huff Post Travel.
I loved The Academics so much that I came here twice. My yellow raincoat with angel wings is by Kusuri (now carried in Karmaloop’s Kasbah). Designer Lauren Bitar’s pop Japan jackets are major head-turners.
At this sister cafe to Habitu, the award-winning (and stylish) baristas take center stage. They hand-roast their own beans and pour it through a Chemex drip to maximize flavor.
An Americano goes well with macaroons, cupcakes, or a chocolate tart topped with walnut and gold.
I enjoyed the New York City feel of The Academics, with high exposed ceilings and brick walls.
The concept is influenced by the owner’s extensive travels. The apple strudel was as good as the one I had in Germany…
… and the small plates brought me back to Italy. The next time I’m shopping in Causeway Bay, I’ll be stopping here to refuel. (38 Yiu Wa Street, CWB, HK)
Please take a moment to read the article and watch the Hong Kong food tour video — I spent a long time on it for you!
