Nia Long Showing Out

Nia Long looked absolutely FABULOUS at the New York City premier of Chris Rock's Good Hair. The dress, purse, shoes, her skin, everything was on point! She is showing the world that age aint nothing but a number and you can stay fly and age ever so gracefully. I heart her!

Fall Winter Lip Colors

So our fabulous "friend in my head" Rihanna was spotted out in Paris heading to the fashion week festivities out there. She was rocking a fly black see-through dress and one of the hottest looks for the fall and winter season, which is the dark lip color. My sources tell me that dark colors like deep plums, dark browns, and even black are totally in. They definitely give you that edgy look to spice up your outfit. But keep in mind that if you are going to do a dark lip keep the upper part of the face on the lighter side. When you have such a bold lip you don't want to do too much and go over board with the darkness. **(side bar) And the same thing vice versa if you have a bold eye you should go with a light or pale lip.**

***Updated to say: Solange also had this look in a current photoshoot she had with Honeymag.com.

High Fashion...Yacht???

Looking at the picture alone I found it hard to believe this was a yacht. Wally and Hermes has a new yacht, they have been working together to create a series of luxury and environmental-friendly yachts. This is the Wally-Hermes 58 is the first yacht in the series and was designed with the form equals function method. Its sleek design offers comfort, privacy, stability, space, and sustainability. If you ask me its just simply breath taking. Who will be the first person to buy one of these superb creations???? Only a truly stylish and GLAM-orous person could pull that off.

Check out the video below:

Karina Pasian: 18 year old singer

There really isn't anything for me to say. Watch and listen to the video for yourself...she's amazing!

R.I.P Aaliyah 1979-2001

Its crazy how time flies, its hard to believe that it has been 8 years since she left this world. Aaliyah was such a bright star with a warm personality. But the world was obviously not enough for her, and she was called on to a higher place.

She has always been an inspiration to me since she came out in 1994 because she was so young. She was just 3 years older than me which showed me that your age doesn't really matter. She was very well spoken and intelligent, depicting that age really was just a number. As she grew up before the world's eyes, I felt like I grew with her. She developed and maintained her own personal style which matured as she did. She was never scared to take risks which is what a true fashionista does.

Aaliyah will forever be missed by me and so many other people around the world, but she lives on in all of our hearts.

More Music: R.Kelly Feat. Keri Hilson Number 1

I'm sooo uber excited that this R. Kelly and Keri Hilson video has finally come out. I love the song..."Miss Keri Baby" did her thing and she looks beautiful. Kells good Lord! whatever he's been doing since he's been in hiding is working because he is looking fine as H-E-Double-Hockey Sticks!!! Hopefully he will be able to make a comeback after all the drama, I mean he's more than qualified to. Guess we will see though.

Enjoy my Luvs....

Ginuwine's New Single

So here is the new video by Ginuwine entitled "Trouble", it features For The Love Of Ray J winner Cocktail. Apparently she is saying she has received some negative comments about her appearance in the video, related to the fact that she is Latina. I'll just say that I don't get it, there is no reason to hate on that. There are bunches of Latina a other exotic looking women in all these music videos, so if she really is getting those kinds of comments, those people are just completely ignorant>>>NEXT!!!!

Anyway I must say that I like this song. I also liked his previous single "Last Chance". I definitely think his album "A Man's Thoughts" is worth a purchase and it's now available in stores and on itunes.

She's Bad....

I mean really just look at her. People may hate all they want but Beyonce is one bad bish!! She looks fab and is great at entertaining us, that is clearly what she was born to do. I got to say I abousolutely love the Sweet Dreams video. I was almost gonna be mad that it was looking so similar to her three previous videos but the song just makes it that much better and the booty poppin at the break down is great! It brings me back to my high school days and I L-O-V-E it!! Get it Bey we love ya girl!

Check this out if you haven't already.

In Memoriam: Naomi Sims

Naomi Sims was one of the first successful black models in the late 60's as a teenager. Halston was quoted by the New York Times in 1974 saying that "she was the first. She was the great ambassador for all black people. She broke down all the social barriers". While working in the industry she noticed that the wigs used were in the likeness of Caucasian hair. She then started baking synthetic hair in her oven at home to create wigs fashioned after relaxed African-American hair. Her business became very successful. In 1973 she retired from modeling and within five years her designs produced by the Metropa Company had annual sales of $5 million.

She passed away Saturday at age 61 from cancer. She was a true inspiration for all women, especially women of color. She showed that you can overcome anything in order to become successful at whatever you want to do in life if you put your mind to it.

If you all haven't heard Trey Songz mixtape "Anticipation" you have to check it out asap. I absolutely love it!!! If it's any indication of how good his actual album "Ready" being released September 1st will be then I'm sure its gonna be a certified banger as they say. I admit I'm a new fan of Songz, his style,image and music have come a long way since he 1st came on the scene in 05'.(*sidebar* He is soooooooo fine now & that smile...whooo child!!)Anyways I totally appreciate and respect his growth. With this 3rd album coming, and as hard as his fans go in for him...(Check it on his twitter)his success is almost certainly guaranteed. I'm about to put my pre-order in because I fasho want to be one of the 1st people to have the album in my possession (you can pre-order here). But in the meanwhile if you haven't heard it go ahead and click to download ANTICIPATION to hold you over til September 1st.

Release Your Inner Rock Goddess

Hey Luvs! When I saw these shoes I thought that Rihanna could rock the hell out of these. But hell..so could I!!! The rugged platform bottom makes me believe that they would be easy to walk in. With the buckles, stacked heel, and zipper back these shoes would be a great addition to any girl's wardrobe that has somewhat of that "rocker chic" look. They are a bit pricey, but nothing too major for those true shoe lovers who know that you can't really put a price tag on style. Rockin these will definitely put an extra pep in your step. You can purchase these Alexander Wang "Hanne" Triple Buckle Boots for $1,175 including import and shipping fees at LuisaViaRoma

European Ear-wear

Surfing through the fashion blogs like I do daily, I came across the fabulous work of European designer Cecilia Fabbri. She has a massive amount of work on her website, but I particularly love her portfolio for her earring line especially because I adore unique earrings. The display is amazing….she used editorial images and superimposed her collection named “Doll Propaganda” onto them. I think it’s a great way to make her work stand out…very creative. She definitely has a unique style that is ahead of the curve. I’d totally rock these earrings anytime.

She Aint Got Sh** On Me!!!

Can I just say how gorgeous Letoya Luckett looks in her new video for “She Aint Got”!!! I mean the styling and makeup in the video is DOPE…I have a passion for hot pink lipstick right now. The song is hot btw. And whoever dude is, he's SUPER SEXY. Check out her website for more music from her...LOVES HER. P.S. Her album drops August 25,2009. Make sure you go get it.
