If David Guetta didn’t wake you up with his pop house weirdness this morning maybe I can kick your little fashion ass into gear with this video. Put together by the lovely people at Vogue, Cara Delivigne (supermodel of the moment) rocks out in this Punk Stories video by Quentin Jones of Cadence (New York).
It’s a non-stop fashion blast. Grab your nearest Vivienne Westwood/Malcolm McLaren t-shirt, and turn up the volume for a perfect punk Vogue story.
I love D Squared. An Italian clothing collaboration by twins Dean and Dan Caten (born Dean and Dan Catenacci). Based in Milan these twins are not only fraternal but identical and specialize in the ultra-modern and chic. What’s not to love about D2? Nothing. They are perfection, embodied in fashion and willing to prove it.
I present to you their new campaign video for 2013, “Behind the Mirror”. With of course little hot Dean and Dan action in it a la cameo. In drag?!! You’ll have to watch this gender eff for yourself. Beautifully shot and visually delicious by the geniuses at Mert & Marcus and the double D’s never looked so good.
I present ‘Behind the Mirror”.
Streetwear may be a the new black but Men’s fashion, in my eyes, will always be about timeless, key pieces and classic style. The fedora will be forever classy, the tie and bow-tie represent class and can be chosen to show personality, and the classic three-piece suit will always be the ultimate in being a dapper don.
Eric Benet is an amazing musician with a vision. He is also a believer in timeless fashion and style. So much that he took his vision a step further to make a new, amazing video called ‘Music Meets Style’ (just released on Esquire.com).
Filmed at The Brooklyn Circus, a high-end menswear store in New York, Eric included such style and fashion writer as Dapper Lou of www.dapperlou.com, pop critic / writer Miles Marshall Lewis of EBONY.com, KJohn (KJohn La Soul), co-creators of Stuff Fly People Like Rae Holliday & Gabe, as well as Rog Walker of Huffington Post.
With a mesh of spoken word, sound and vision, Eric illustrates how his personal style has evolved and what it means to him. Creating a masterpiece of what timeless fashion is with song only creates beauty, and this video is just that. Well played Eric Benet, well-played.
I have seen a million campaign ad’s for fashion houses. Some are well done and some, complete crap. Some have artistic quality and some are just lewd.
This campaign video, by Louis Vuitton, is beautiful, chic, naughty, sexual and deliciously done.
Supposedly, and hear this by proxy of the HuffPost, feminist’ are up in arms about it due to it ‘glamorizing prostitution’. Being a feminist and being a strong-willed little fire starter myself I don’t buy the hype. It is sex, sex with a side of sexy. It also mad me really want the lingerie collection for AW 2013.
Like now.
Watch Below;
I admit that most vices in life I have given up. However there are two things I will never let go of. Chocolate and television. And wine. And….oh blast let’s get back to television.
If you are like me you are addicted to every fashionably interesting show out there. I am still fuming there isn’t more ‘It’s a Brad, Brad, Brad World’ and am addicted to the new show The Face. I’m rooting for Coco seeing as she is sassy and quirky. Well Gods be praised a new show has popped up and it looks fabulous. And it’s set in L.A. which makes me an even bigger fan.
Enter Frock Stars L.A. with the ever wicked and cool owner Doris Raymond, owner of The Way We Wore. One of the hottest vintage shops in L.A. County which dresses some of the hottest celebrities (Adele, Dita Von Tease).
How can I describe the owner? She’s fashionable, savvy and a vintage GODDESS. She knows whats up and down and she should be interesting to watch.
Add a fab staff of vintage divas in the know. Styles and designers they carry and hope to find range from the 1920’s to the 1980’s. And with a constant search for ‘the holy grail’ of vintage, it’s a super win.
Check out the teaser for the show here.
Premieres March 7 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Are you watching? I will be.
Who say’s Punk is dead? Not the NY MET Costume Institute. Recently Anna Wintour, Riccardo Tisci and several others put their best punk foot forward at a gala to display a full array of punk wear. Original Vivienne Westwood/Malcolm McClaren, McQueen, Lagerfeld and Galliano’s outfits are displayed in this diverse look at punk influence.
Punk art & street influence began to show its distasteful head in the mid-1970’s and still has a rough handle on the fashion industry to this day. Ricardo Tisci of Givenchy, Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm Mclaren embraced it around 1976 and never looked back. To this day Westwood’s punk influence is still pretty heavy in her collections. You don’t get to be a well-known designer of 30+ years by playing it safe. And punk, has NEVER been safe.
Checkout the display in New York City from the MET evening of Punk.
I love Eva Mendes. She is spunky, sexy, knows how to smile, takes things seriously but not too seriously. She is hot, has curves and is just plain gorgeous.
It makes perfect sense having all these attributes that she would go and start her own fashion line.
According to Women’s Wear Daily, Eva has partnered with NY&Co. Known for their simple and clean work styles, to create some bombshell gorgeous evening wear. It will be called (of course), Eva by Eva Mendes. Nothing like adding star quality and name to your brand.
“This could be significant for us,” said Greg Scott, chief executive officer of New York & Co. “We like to think big. We’ll see how the collection can grow.” Bridesmaid dresses are just one of the opportunities, Scott said.
Eva by Eva Mendes will consist of a large dress component and accessories. “We don’t address day-to-evening and real cocktail looks today,” Scott said. “There will be pants and jeans because that’s what our brand is known for. Eva is excited to pursue that also.”
I’m glad Eva is pursuing casual wear. We need more pants and jeans to fit our curvier girls. My roommate is 24/7 hell trying to find cute jeans to fit her booty. Eva’s style is amazing and she knows how to put something together is always unique with class. CEO Greg Scott of NY&Co. agree’s;
“We want her influence in the collection,” Scott said. “She has amazing red carpet style and also has a very unique style off the red carpet. She has a real sense of self, which will help us in terms of the design aesthetic. When we look at her, she really is confident.”
Hell yes she does. And she’s smart as a whip too.
I’m looking forward to see what miss thing can put together. I think Eva is beyond sexy. Any attire she helps them create will be too. With such a great sense of style, how it not be a win?
Th collection should have quite a few LBD’s and is full of print’s. Worried it’s ANOTHER celebrity brand with no Eva behind it? Ms. Mendes is 150% involved.
Mendes has already participated in a few creative meetings. “The other day, I went to the office with half my closet,” she said. “Part of the fun is coming up with the designs and looking through my closet. There are a lot of prints and lots of color. Black can be very chic and very New York,” but Mendes realized that her wardrobe is comprised mostly of color and prints.
You go sexy bitch!
I’m looking forward to seeing what she can do for the industry. If she can’t do it, no one can.
Don’t disappoint Eva. We are rooting for you.
With things going the way they have this January, I can only apologize for not filling you in and writing. I do however feel caught up on health and work issues so it’s time for me to dazzle you with something special. With NYFW upon us (the 7-14th) I thought you might need a pre-fashion week fix. Luckily the demi-god designer known as Herve Leger just put his SS2013 designs on sale. And they are beyond amazing.
This years Spring/Summer collection dazzles with geometric shaping. Known primarily for his beyond sexy bandage dresses, Leger always bring something new to the table. Otherwise his collection would not be THE thing to buy and wear. This year he added intensity in geometric shaping to make his dresses have extra emphasis on your body shaping. Turning every woman into a an angular modelesque shape that flatter and make his clothes and accessories as close as you can get to wearing art.
Note the harness and the shaped pants. They really are something out of this world.
This Color mixture is gorgeous and all over SS2013 Runways
This is made for emphasis on a sexy waistline. Flattering for any shape or size.
Yes, it comes in Black as well.
And the The amazing piece by far is one of my favorites. The contours, lines with an addition of a flirty skirt make this well worth the money and pre-order.
My god it really is reminiscent of a piece of Art Nouveau. The lines both swirl and the embroidery delicate. This is modern-day grace.
Unfortunately with a whopping $12,500 dollar tag I may have to wait on buying it. Thankfully this is pre-order custom piece by Monsieur Leger.
Either way everything in this collection is worth buying and dreaming about. And dreams like this in my world, end up in my closet.
Take a look at the full collection here;
I love starting back with a good bang. So let’s post something….bangable? Freja Beha and Mo & Co recently collaborated with Karim Sadli creating a fashion video that will blow your mind AND make you buy their clothes.
After all how can you go wrong with a Mo & Co.’s mod rocker pants, stills of cool masks and a rock star like Freja Bheja.
I think the picture above says it all.
‘Meggings’ or man leggings are one trend we would LOVE to see die in 2012. I remember a ton of hair rockers wearing them in the 80’s. The premise was being ‘over the top’ or ridiculous. And it worked. Now meggings have resurfaced, but this time they are considered a fashion statement. (God save us)
According to http://fashion.telegraph.co.uk meggings are sold at some of the top luxury brand stores and are going international;
(In the US) Uniqlo, Barneys and Nordstrom are selling tights for men.
The bad news is they are on their way to Britain: Uniqlo is already selling them on its British website, and their success in New York is seen as an indication they will also prove popular here. (the UK)
Perhaps some of my skinnier-than-thou gays could work that style, or a REALLY hot metro sexual man. GQ boys can get away with anything.
Man leggings….meggings? I think there is a line you can cross with good taste and this it.
Russell Brand wore them but did it as a joke. Ya know, that funny ha-ha thing. And Justin Bieber has the fashion sense of a Disney kid. Ergo, what ever wardrobe gives him he wears. The Telegraph UK sites Lenny Kravitz wearing them, however he reeks of sex. He can pull of anything.
I hope to say good-bye to meggings this new years. Perhaps I will burn one in effigy and pray to the gods. Lets let meggings die in 2012 and skinny jeans reign free.
What do you think of the ‘Meggings’ trend. Do or die? Live or try?
Tis the season for Fashion Editorial video’s and our Fashion House today is Burberry. Stylish, classic chic with an amazing brand image. Who doesn’t think about that perfect plaid when Burberry is mentioned?
It also makes me think of trench’s and English tea. And how Victoria Beckham was banned from wearing Burberry a few years ago because it was ‘trashy, not classy’ on her.
Well payback is a bitch and we love it. The best revenge is living well and having gorgeous children. Right Victoria?
Not only did Victoria turn her life around BUT she married David Beckham and had kids.
Cute ones. So cute…..Romeo Beckham is now working as a model. And he just got his first job. Working FOR Burberry.
I love irony. It’s just wicked and funny. Also makes for great blogging!
All things said and done, Burberry and the Beckham’s mended things and are working together. So glad the Big B and the Big V aren’t in a bitch fight anymore.
Here are the shots Mario Testino took of the wee cheeky monkey thanks to GraziaDay.co.uk;

Check out Romeo Beckham’s debut as a fashion model as the fabulous new face of the brand in this quick and sweet video ;
It has been a month since the handsome and talented Nicolas Ghesquiere stepped down as the head of Balenciaga. New prospects are finally opening up for Balenciaga and it seem’s our darling, and always cheery Alexander Wang may be the top prospect for head Designer.
With years of design experience with his own line and a fresh very modern look to his clothing I approve. Wang is known to be innovative and unique. With fashion houses being helmed with designers like Karl Lagerfeld, Vivienne Westwood, Betsey Johnson and Gareth Pugh you must become a celebrity as well as an entrepreneur in the 21st century.
Here’s hoping he get’s the job. We need fresh talent to keep fashion interesting!
It’s a slow news day. Hostess, COPS and Britney Spears are all cancelled in one way or another. Everyone in the grand ol US of A is prepping houses and food for Thank-turkey, and no one is acting trashy enough to make the news. Except the Kardashians. They are always trashy, so that isn’t news.
So instead of trying to pry news from the net with the jaws of death I found Leighton Meester actually looking sexy. That of course is because she is in one of my favorite publications, Flaunt Magazine.
Flaunt Magazine has the amazing ability to make anything and anyone look gorgeous. Between amazing shoots and heavy photoshopping they always win. This also conforms one of my favorite fashion trends of winter, goat hair. We are talking leather and goat hair, jackets, boots and purses are ON trend. Or at least the geniuses (no sarcasm) over at Flaunt think so.
Enough talk of accessories for winter. Here is Leighton Meester looking undoubtedly sexy.
Flaunt dishes it up smoking, sexy hot. Check it;
Damn.
Props to Flaunt Magazine. You guys get an A++ for effort and a gold star for ass. Except next time leave the girl/girl photo out. Leighton failed that.
In the meantime I will try digging up decent news. Enjoy the Meester and congrats to Flaunt for killing it…yet again.
Everyone love’s an Angel. I’m talking about the bootie shaking kind with extra sexy bra’s of course. Everyone like’s THAT kind of Angel.
Thankfully, it is that time of year again. If you can’t make the show in NYC, which tapes tonight, they have plenty of bootie/boobie shaking online and on TV….but NOT until December, 4th 2012!!!
Oh the agony! What can we do until December 4th?
Until then they have contest, Behind the Scene’s and sketches of the show to keep you amused.
For online VS Angel’s ‘Behind the Scene’s’ click here;
If you are like me, and believe TV is the devil (because I have internet which has everything anyway :P) Go online here and catch the show on December 4th.

Until then, Happy Hump Day!

I am a Michael Antonio Shoes fan girl. For a long time I have been wearing, toting and secretly adoring their shoes. I love the style, grace, comfort and sexy they bring to my petite feet. Quite possibly, I dream of Michael Antonio shoes, because they are not only wonderful to wear but a late night fantasy (shhh it’s my dirty little secret).
Maggie Barry is a creative genius, bringing imagination to life. Her clothing has been worn by stars who walk on air and want art in fashion as much as she does. She created Cher’s famous leather thong outfit from her ‘Turn Back Time’ video and she works, and plays with such famous names as Lady Gaga, Miss J. Alexander (ANTM) and uses singer and model Morganne Picard as her spokesmodel for her brand.
LA Fashion Week on Monday, October 15th was a visual collaboration brought together by both of these artists & designers to create a step away from traditional fashion to bring Fashion fusion/footwear to life for Maggie Barry and Michael Antonio’s SS 2013 show in downtown’s nightspot, Exchange LA.
This brought designers, stylists, fashionistas, actors, actresses, fashion/event photographer, trend watchers and the artistic diva’s of the night out.
I ran into Eric of Prep Jerks whose business as a stylist and fashion forward man is booming. Keep an eye on him here http://www.prepjerks.com. He’s got a taste for business, design and fashion that is unparalleled. Go Prep Jerks!
The collection was stunning, eclectic, bright, beautiful, unique and I loved every moment. I ran into friends (Vikki Lizzie, Sabrini Paridisi) saw a freak chic ladies from acting (Bai Ling, Phoebe Price) and loved the sleek futuristic runway clothing and shoes. From the flash to atmospheric after party, this event was a win/win.
Let’s take a look at who and what showed up,
The show tapped into an amazing visual of light with a cross of adult animation come to life. Think Aeon Flux done right. I have to commend and recommend checking out Maggie Barry for those who haven’t seen her art and fashion. The woman is beyond a visionary.
Check out the runway video below (I was in an uncomfortable position making, however it somehow made great footage).
