Swing Low

ok so i have no clue where this comes from.
actually i do but pay attention cause im in the mood for speaking in riddles.
i wear white shirts every week day until further notice (damn you public schools.) sometimes i can sneak into the side door and get away with it but more than not im in a white t. now contrary to the objections of ppl i bought plain v necks. ppl thought these where inappropriate for school nd im like you just dont know what cool is. so today i bring you my favorite pics of people in white t's, white dress, and white things. cause lets be honest, white is the absense of all color, and its only a frumpy white t if you wear it like one. duhh

had to mention my two favorite bad boys james dean and marlon brando.

chanel 2009. the sad part is i actually like the head pieces better than the clothing, but hey it all works together quite lovingly.

david beckham.... y so serious doll?

i love this picture. it's gisele in w magazine (alexander wang dress). it's from the w magazine my mommy sent me when i went to camp one summer. made my week.

daily fashion tip_petals. im talking bout the little things you put over your boobies. yes i do realize that boobies are natural and nipples stick out but sometimes you just gotta say, am i showing to much nip nip (as i call it.) cause lets be honest who wants to be tagged the next day in a photo where your boobs are the main part of the frame, not your face, because you had too much nip nip...

Hot to Trot

immm alliveeee!!!!

so anyway i figured i fill you in on my little obsession_models.
yea i know everyone loves models, but there are a few i absolutely adore. i wouldnt call it stalking but i look for them in shows and when ever i see them in an editorial i squeal for joy. here are my top favorite muses.

chanel iman_ she is by far my favorite model. i first saw her when i started subscribing to teenvogue. she was on the cover with two other girls (who will be mentioned later) and now shes taken over the world. maybe its becasue there are very few african american female models who have made it big, but i think its my love of her stems from the fact that as part of the new generation she brings a new face (korean and black.) she also has fantasmical eyebrows, almond eyes, and a walk that would shame a jungle cat. here are some pics of her in spring shows this year;

karlie kloss_i <3 her. that is the best way to describe it. i also discovered her throught teen vogue. she's only seveteen and she for just about all my idols namely karl lagerfeld. shes got legs up to her frik frakin armpits and a vampire worthy stare. below are her flicks;

ali micheal_also teen vogue spotted. she had a tiny rift in her career over her weight but she steped up and talked about it. now shes back in the game with coach ads out the wizz-zow.

jordan dunn_graced this months teen vogue cover with chanel iman. i envy her skin i really do, its always shining. her eggo is preggo at the moment but she was still walking runways and gracing pages this fall.

tao okamoto_i feel in love with her haircut, its true. and im not the only one, an entire runway show (of course at this moment the designers name has slipped my mind) contained wigs fashioned after her do.

christy turlington_just call her the comeback kid (not kate moss comeback though.) she's really simply gracefull. her face has beautiful angularity and she's in shape as in goddess.

liya kebede_another shining skin heroin. she's an ethiopian super hero, take a look at her cause to prevent maternal and newborn child mortality at http://www.theliyakebedefoundation.org/home.php

coco rocha_i actually found her when they were still making cosmo girl. she's extremly pretty, like dark beau pretty. she has amazing movement in all her photos.

sasha pivovarova_russian model with angles in her face sharp enough to cut a diamond. gotta love that blond hair too.

agyness deyn_i fell in love with her close cut crop as well. shes got the boy meets girl look. very rock and roll very im a fifties house wife versatility. i absolutely adore her burberry campaigns.

daily fashion tip_ awesome secret panties (its not just victorias anymore .)think of them as an undercover superpower. take them out when you need a boost of confidence. no one has to know your wearing them but you know it, and that makes all the difference. so skrew all the model beauties, you've got something they dont have, undies that can take you from drab to fab. feeling cheeky yet?

TIme Drains

hey it me!! i do believe this is my twenty sixth blog. *tear. im growing up.

any hooo. im freaking out a little inside because my november teen vogue has yet to come. i heard it has jordan dunn and chanel iman on the cover but i wouldnt know because i have yet to recieve mine. i never throw a copy of teen vogue out. i've been getting them since i was eleven.

on the other hand i watched the stella mccartney show today. i do adore that stella, always putting things out that i'd wear. more details on that tmrw. so much to do so little time.

i'm still trying to figure out how to put up pics of all the fantasmical things i see to share with you. lets just say it's a work in progress.

p.s. check out tonights gossip girl. hilary duff and tyra banks are sure to make a splash.

daily fashion tip_statement necklace. its perfect for a simple frock, party dress, or to jazz up you'r plain white tee. for slim in the front women i suggest long beads. no not mardi gras, i mean delicate chains and strands of pearls. if you like chunky find a long necklace with a chunky piece at its lowest part. uber curvy women try chocker like strands. no they should not actually choke you but if they have a pendant it should rest between your collar bones. mid length works for just about any size though it should be worn by those of you not sporting a to b's or d's. try not to layer to much. always take one think off before you leave the house, coco chanel taught me that.

Short Stacks (are back)

september tenth.
*sigh

for those of you in the five boroughs i hope your spending because fashion's night out won't be a success with out you.

they say big thing come in small packages and i hope their right, for tyra banks sake of course. last night was the premier of cycle thirteen of her infamous america's next top model. however, this season all of the competitors are under five foot seven. good for them. the shortest girl is five three. but the old saying is quite right because some of these girls are just as fierce as the tall ones. and lets not forget the real reasons everyone tunes in; the jay's, tears, fights, and fashion. may i just say, that the jay's are gorgeous. their are very few men out their who can pull of lip gloss and foundation flawlessly, and they do so with pride. if only they could teach the rest off us their technique. as for the tears, sadly, there were none, well at least not enough. of course when girls cry the blubber incomprehensibly, but i was waiting for the makeover tears. sadly none arrived, looks like this little group of shorties is just to thrilled to let the tiny, excuse the unintended pun, things bother them. if only us big people could be mature that way. so far no drama thought their was one oddly chill girl and one girl crazed with jesus, but hey, it is what it is. as for fashion, last night the entire country got a treat when they discovered that chanel iman was a guest judge. at least, it was a treat for me. she is absolutely gorgeous, and her walk is fierce as a cats. she is one of my favorite models. in fact, my first issue of teen vogue had her on the cover.

side note_lisa (the first to be eliminated) had flawless eyebrows. maybe its time for all of us to switch to threading?

as for the rest of the fashion world, take note. this fall its all about the eighties? why you ask(no saved by the bell is not staging a come back) well it seems that the new crop of young designers all grew up during those golden years. it's true that history repeats it self but a definite flash back is those big bold shoulders. and you thought shoulder pads were so yesterday. wrong. i only have one request for the soon to be heads of the fashion world. don't bring acid wash jeans back. skinnies look great but there's just something about that excessive bleach that makes everyone want to hurl.

daily fashion tip_a black motorcycle jacket will do you justice. if its not your thing, try to resit one lined with shearling, it will keep you warm. its the tough chic vibe, but if you like splenda sweeten it with a flirty top and your shrunken leather masterpiece will go where ever you go. take a hint from james dean; young and reckless never goes out of style.
