What a surprise it was to get this distraction halfway while working on an on-going styling project. A friend of mine notified me about MTV's Style section featuring one of my photographs of a shoot I styled for last year's street style project. All is good and well, except the fact that they didn't ask for any permission whatsoever from my friend, the blogger, or myself to use the photo! No credits either. I don't watermark my photos because watermarking gives photos a very territorial look. A stamp of "that's mine". When it comes to fashion, I think it's much better when we admire a photo and let our senses take us where they want to without the constant ugly distraction of a semi-opaque stamp of the owner of the photo.
Given that MTV is an established company, it's just ridiculous that they would blatantly steal a photograph from anywhere without permission. 

Below is the website's page. My shot is the first from the left.
