2009 SAG Awards: Best Dressed

1st pic : Taraji P. Henson, in Herve' L. Leroux & H. Stein jewels. She looks the best by farrr to me,this is a classic effortless look. Everyday that goes by Taraji is definitely steppin up her game.

2nd pic : Kate Winslet, in Narcisco Rodriguez. Love this look, it was number 1 on my list .. until I seen Taraji. Anyway, she has a nice shape .. it fits her perfectly.

3rd pic : Holly Hunter, in Reem Acra. Absolutely stunning.

4th pic : Christina Applegate, in Emanuel Ungaro. Very fashion forward, the color looks great on her.

5th pic : Christina Hendricks, in Carolina Herrera. This is the definition of a "body shaped like a coke bottle" (no homo) she looks fab!

Go Green then Go Minx!

Minx Nails are the latest trend for celebs & fashion. I know not too many people know how this works. So let me explain, a flexible polymer is first heated then applied to the nail, like a press on. For a long time I've been trying to figure out what the name of the polish beyonce was using & what shade she wears, all I knew was that her nails a type of silver matallic I never seen. I finally did some researching ... and that's when I discovered the best nail process ever!

Ever since I seen my girl "B" ... (and yes I said "B") wearin the chrome nails, they started poppin up everywhere. Celebs from Pink, Cristina Aguilera, Blake Lively, Rihanna, Solange and Eve have been spotted wearing them. They are def a fashion statement, and will finish any outfit!

Oh yeah ... their also another "Going Green" alternative as opposed to nail polish & fake tips. Ladies look it up using Minx Nail Finder to find a salon that's does it near you!

What Our first Lady chose




Ok so the day of the Inauguration, my eyes were glued to the screen .. no im not political, but I was on a mission to find out what Michelle O was wearing. For the first event when Barack was being swarn in she wore a custome dress made by designer Isabel Taledo a Cuban designer. Isabel is said to be "every designers designer". Her things can only be found in specialty boutique around the US.The dress looked amazing on her. I thought. Her accessories, a pair of green short leather gloves by one of her faves J.Crew and a pair of Jimmy Choo's. Very Nice.

And for the Balls she wore A white one strap shoulder gown by designer Jason Wu, a young designer in his 20's ... and no the dress wasn't white. Just beautiful. She's so youthful in her appearance, great icon!

Y-3 Honja ... Dope



Now for a longgg time, I have been wanting these in red, but I was told they won't be made in that color again ... so I contacted a rep for y-3 and unfortunately it was true .... smh. Back in jan 08 I was calling everywhere possible for these, but .. no luck. I was soo pissed. I was gonna be for sure the only chick in philly with them, but this time around I won't be picky ... I'll take what I can get. So here in this start of a great year they re-made them same look only black with white soles, and I'm gonna have them ... because I deserve them : ) Even though I'm not much of a snearker head anymore( well I am still a lil ) , I had to grow up on ya'll, I am a lady ... but you will definitely see me rockin these fly. sick. dope kicks!

First Lady Fashions for: Inauguration Ball



With Inauguration Ball coming up, everyone's been extra happy for the Obama family ... now Our Family, and I am very proud to say that! Anyway ... we all know we are in a recession, infact we may be even closer to a depression. Just know we will be fine. So with that said ... every Magazine, Talk Show Host, News Reporter and especially EVERY Designer wants to know who and what she will be wearing. Will it be one of her fav's? Maybe Maria Pinto, J. Crew, Reem Acra? No ones know's. So I was on www.wwd.com as always .. and I came across a few sketches by the designers dreaming to design Michelle Obama's gown. Personally my fav is the Diane Von Furstenburg, the yellow and white get up .. its Fabulous, and she can definitely pull it off!!! Perfect for our First Lady.

Now that was my first choice, however my second was my favorite designer Marc Jacobs also in yellow and white, this high neck figure showing gown is classic and chic. What do you think?? You can view more sketches by other designers at the wwd website (wwd.com)
