Officially wack

Boy oh boy!!!!!

First of all lets start off with the fact that this song sucks .

Glad we established that.

Second of all I really wanna know why does P.diddy makes every one of his artists dance when we all saw in Me & U that Cassie cant dance to save her life??Why subject the public to this horror??As I was watching the video her stiff /no rhythm self made me cringe.It was unbearable.

Third of all is it me or does she look a whole lot like Aaliyah in this video ??

Anyway Cassie you aren't fooling no one,we all see this is a desperate attempt to tell diddy you wanna be the next Kim Porter.

No umbrellla needed

I told you bitchs about Herve Leger a while back.Above you see Rihanna rocking a hot pink Herve Leger bandage skirt.I normally hate the way Rihanna dresses.She tends to look like one of those over dressed girls from Harlem that can be found wondering south of Houston st., but I must say this outfit is well put together.She made that baldy look decent for a change.(laughs)


anyway unfortunately the skirt is sold out

what is she wearing??

Yikes!!!! I saw this pic of Christiana Milian on the set of Americas best dance crew and I felt compelled to share my disgust and concern for her.Does any r&b chick know how to dress now a days???


Btw listen to this a::: track jacket with graphic tee belted at the waist with peep toe platforms and boot cut jeans::::: just sounds allllllllllll wrong!!She should have known better.

Music Ivy League style

My infatuation with the Ivy League continues to grow.While in search of a cool myspace jam that the stalkers could listen to while they snoop in my biz I came across Chester French.At first i was like damn they sound like the Beatles .Then I was like no its definitely the Beach Boys .Anyway like Ryan Leslie, Chester French went to Harvard.While in college they started making music together that they could enjoy .Job well done cause I sure do. There retro sound with contemporary lyrics is just the thing that I wanna hear .It fascinates me how they're smart enough to get into Harvard and yet continue to pursue a career in music where there passion lies. I don't know if you guys watch Entourage but they're song "she loves everybody" was featured in season four's first episode.Being featured on a t.v show seems to bring a few fans ...........Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol got a fan base once featured in Grey's Anatomy.........Back to the point, the word is out so go listen for yourself!!!

Speedy Shaper

All my faithful Louis Vuitton lovers know that they're bags tend to dent when theyre not full or sag when they're over stuffed .Owning the Neverfull GM I know that it can look sloppy at times but Speedy shaper has figured out a way to make it better.They offer two products to keep your bags looking fresh.First is a base .The base is available for the Speedy and Neverfull.With the base the bag will not sag no matter how packed it is.The next product is the Bag storage.If you know bags you know that bags that are made of coated canvas, like the speedy and especially the keepall, should not be folded for long periods of time. Short periods of storage while folded cause fold lines that are unsightly. Long periods of storage while folded may crack.(this is true especially for travel bags like the keepall) The solution is to store them stuffed. Some people use tissue paper or old T-shirts, but it is much simpler and neater to use one of the stuffer pillows custom fit for your bag.Hope the Louis Vuitton solutions were helpful.

The Suite Life

If my memory serves me correct Ashley Tisdale outfits just screamed help on the Disney channels The Suite life of Zack and Cody.But not anymore.Internet rumors claim she now shares a stylist with her High School Musical co star Vanessa Hudgens.I don't know what shes doing but its working. She makes the Steve Madden Lasoo boots look fierce.And I cant seem to get over those Seven acid wash skinnys.Beside her Louis Vuitton and Chanel my favorite accessory must be the white watch.Since I continue to sport mine while cracked she validates it being worth it.

MOB life

Married to the mob has released they're fall 2008 collection.Mob always delivers the heat!Cop yours before they're all gone.

Kim.

Last year the ever so beautiful Kim Kardashian graced Playboy's holiday issue .This yeah they got none other then Kim to do the December 2008 issue.....Lil kim that is .

Huh??Lil Kim.

Yeah Lil kim as in the rapper Lil Kim.She was asked personally by Hugh Hefner but this is not the first time. She was asked once before and declined the offer stating it went against her religious beliefs.Now she says the money is right unlike before.

Double A

School is around the corner.You could never go wrong with basics and American Apparel offers just that. They are offering 15% off online orders to all students with valid student ID now through September 2nd. They have it all from tees to backpacks so you cant go wrong,

Moncler

I spotted this very HOT Moncler motercyle patent puffer on Intermix and feel In love.Moncler is definitely the puffer of choice for fashionable women .I think I might need to get one this winter.

The Evolution

::Cough cough ::clears throat.

So Joy Bryant and Jay-z got this "The Evolution"ad campaign going on.A few months back I saw pictures of Jay and Joy real close .It all makes sense now.Anyway the ads are a good attempt at revival but I think change really needs to start with a new creative director/designer .The items they have on the site is reminiscent of what would've been cool when The Blueprint came out.On an another note Joy Bryant is great.She ditched Yale to pursue an acting career.That just shows you she got balls.

Giusepp stepped it up.

We all know Christian Louboutin has been dominating the womens luxury shoe industry but I must say Giuseppe Zanotti really out did them selves with they're fall 2008 collection.From the peep toe oxfords to the Knee high platform boots they're all to die for.

Shop fall 08

Psychedelic .

In other retail news Barney's New York ,like many other department stores go all out when it comes to the display windows during the holidays.This year Barney's has decided to take it back to the 60's .The era is exciting and radical.

Progress

Beyonce was recently spotted in Nyc with hubby Jay-z wearing a t-shirt with presidential candidate Barack Obama's face and the word progress on it.B isn't the only celeb seen rocking t-shirts with a political message.Now a days Kim Kardashian ,Halle Berry,Rihanna and many other have done so aswell .I wonder if P.diddys vote or die campaign for the 2004 elections is to blame for the sudden interest in politics.The shirt is Obey and can be purchased on urbanoutfitters.com.They sold out in white and it is now only available in black .

Marc Jacobs on life

Marc Jacobs on Paris vs New York
"The one thing that's helped me to achieve some sort of balance is my life between New York and Paris, because Paris is a lot calmer and slower-moving than New York. I find myself at home at 8 o'clock for dinner, and I'll walk the dogs, and I'm in bed before midnight. When I have a few hours to myself in Paris, I feel like a success, and when I have a few hours to myself in New York, I feel like a failure, because in New York there's always dinners to go to, gallery openings to go to, movie premieres, parties—it's just so full-on."

Marc Jacobs on Sex and Fashion
"I don't think clothes are sexual; I think people are sexual. You can always tell somebody's sexy—whether they're wearing a big old baggy tracksuit or a skintight, low-cut dress. But everything affects me and what I do, whether I'm in a relationship or wanting to be in a relationship or obsessing over someone. Lately the shows we've been doing in New York have been these tableaus of my inner world—whatever's going on, whatever perversity. It's not manifesting itself in a low-cut, slinky floor-length gown with beads in it, but that's not to say it isn't informed by a lot of sexual tension."

Marc Jacobs on Blogs and his new Diet
"The culture we live in now is such a fishbowl that nothing passes without a snarky comment on the Web....You're going to get a bunch of blogs saying "He must be on meth in order to be that skinny compared to 10 months ago," but in fact I'm eating a totally organic diet, which has no flour, no sugar, no dairy, and no caffeine, and I lost weight because of that diet and because of a two and a half hour exercise regimen seven days a week."

TOMS

My love for TOMS shoes dates a year back.I actually had the opportunity to meet Blake Mycoskie ceo of TOMS at a fashion panel .Anne Slowey(Elle magazine) told the story of how she featured his shoes in an issue that lead to his big break.I must admit he is a very humble man who really enjoys what he does.TOMS began in may 2006 with the initiative of "one for one" for every pair bought one would be donated to a child in need.With all the hype of the elections TOMS have created some political shoes.They have three different styles republican ,democrat, and split decision vote(pictured above).Why not make a statement all the while helping a good cause?At 45 dollars a pair you can't go wrong.

London, Moscow, and Paris are the final stops after NYC.The pavilion will house contemporary Chanel and art pieces.

Falling For Fall
