Divos:

Look 1. Columbus Short Tailor Made to Fit

If your man or you, are sleek and tailored try this ensemble. Be sure to pay careful attention to fit with pants like these. Neatness and organization is key to pulling this off.

Look 2: Q-Tip Complimentary Swagg

If your boo boo is somewhat eclectic, don't mind edginess he'll love this piece. Leathers, bright accessories and even the new geek chic compliment this style. Think 45% Jay-Z, 45% Kanye and a smidgen of Chris Brown (not too much breezy).

Look 3: Kanye West Partna' Let Me Upgrade-U

Boss Man...Your dude can put on anything and just melt the panties off of a nun! He will look dapper and confident in the chic look. Tell em' again ladies, "Where Yo Boss At"...?

Celeb inspired quick tips

Divas:

Look 1 : Rihanna The One-Piece

Try this on for size for a more sophisticated, simple and classic look. If you go with a monochromatic scheme pair with bold jewelry of the same scheme. If you dare to spice it up just add a punch of color in the shoes and accessories.

Look 2: Lauren London Cute & Frilly Sweetheart

This look is for all my girly girls who like to spice it up. Show off curves and assets with above the knee dresses and skirts. Add flowers and prints for feminine spice. Don't be afraid to try these looks in color, however, unless wearing black shy away from a monochromatic disaster (i.e. all blue, red, teal etc)

Look 3: Beyonce Colorful, Curvaceous Swexy

For all of my hippie sistahs, try this ensemble for a great way to define curves. Shy away from bright colors or bold patterned mermaid dresses of this sort (they make you look bigger). If you choose a dress with rich color pair with simple accessories and shoes (i.e. gold, silver, black). No pun intended, but if you do NOT already have curves, this dress type will not define what is NOT already there.

Look 4: Jada Pinkett-Smith Rock Glamour
So you have edge and you have to show it at all times. Go with a dress that is feminnine but contrasts with studs or leather. Accessorize with hard jewelery such as pyramid studs, leather and clutch. Color can also be added to this combination in sprouts. It can be hard to pull of if the main piece is color and edgy, BE CAREFUL!

The most common New Year's Resolution is to loose weight or be able to fit into some haute swim piece. Dare you fit into that two piece this year, if u are staggering the line between confident and class go with a sexy cover up.Peep Erica Reid's swim suit steez...

Introducing...Melody Ehsani

Can I get a drum roll please! Not only is it about damn time I posted a new entry, but I'd like to introduce Persian native, designer Melody Ehsani. She designs the hauteness in accessories from jewlery to footwear. From the moment I spotted a post of Kelis rockin' an oversized pair of gold 80's inspired earring, I had to know who was responsible for the creation of an immaculate construction. So just the other day, I am at work surfing as if I have nothing else to do (Oh yeah, I forgot to mention I'm back in the workforce now, which is the reason behind the absenteeism, another post tho') and I ran across yet another post from my peeps over at Concrete Loop addressing concerns about the earrings Kelis was wearing. Mel has an array of celebs following suit from Nas, Rihanna, Alicia Keys and more. Anyway I personally ordered the personalized 3-finger ring plate and of course the Kelis earrings!!! And my girl Mel know how to give back to a cause, a portion of the proceeds from each portion goes to furthering the education of young women, so show some support.

So I digress and leave you some designs for thought...

The force that is Rihanna on Acid...

Acid Wash that is...Rihanna was spotted out and about in New York recently wearing this acid wash and lame ensemble. Even though every state on the East Coast has had blistering... hot... humid weather, she stills sizzles in this 80's throw back. Her stylist is a force to be reckoned with. He/She knows exactly what fits her body, what looks good on her, and what to put together to distract fans from her horrid music. No, really have we ever wondered what is it that keeps up drawn to this chic besides her beautiful eyes, modelesque height, cutting edge hair cuts and to die for ensemble. Oh yeah! She sings...That's my girl tho'.

Ah..Chu...

*Sneeze* In my endless pursuit to find some type of meaningless work, I haven't been able to post as much (sorry). Not to mention, I have a stuffy head cold. Nevertheless, I'm here! I just don't understand the human resource, hiring process. I'm trying my best not to be a shopbum, you know the type with no job and still out shopping and spending relentlessly. Yep that's me! I'm craving sneakers like a Pregnant woman and pickles. Jay-Z definitely has my mouth watering and my fingers trembling on the keyboard... reaching for my credit card...done! Anyways peep the pics...*Sniffles*

Sex And The City...

In theaters today...

All Carrie Bradshaw fans, I know are ecstatic for the opening of Sex and the City. After a four year hiatus, the old gal gang is back. More chic, fashion forward, sexually enlightened and ready to hit the big screen. My favorite character I would have to say is Kim Catrell and then Carrie Bradshaw. I guess I will see some of you in line at theaters!

Get Starr Studded...

Rihanna is holding it down for the ladies lately. Her stylist must be hard at work (you can still holla at me Rhi Rhi) keeping her style innovative and haute. I have been checking for this mustard Robert Rodriguez leather jacket since I first laid my big brown eyes on it in Georgetown. Now that it's nearly 50% ($710 then/$459 now) off I copped it yesterday! Dig Rihanna's swag...?

Diamonds Are Forever...

"Glow in the Dark Tour"
I remember the first time I saw Kanye perform live...It was
four years ago. Usher was the headliner and Ye' was the opening act. Even then I knew that he was going to be a force to be reckoned with. He had an incredible stage presence even then. So now fast forward to 2008 and we have Rhianna, N.E.R.D., Pharrell and Lupe Fiasco...Hands down Kanye had the hearts of the crowd! For almost two hours he had the crowd screaming and chanting. His tribute to his mother, the late Dr. Donda West who died in November 2007, was so touching. All in all, anytime Ye's in town...I'm down!
