Micheal Bastian is all about the Gentleman in fall 2012!

The Men's wear designer Micheal Bastian nailed it 2012 Fashion Week! Im all about this !

Congrats to Sarah Burton!!!

Sarah Burton and Super Model Naomi Campbell
Sarash Burton Alexander McQueen's creative director. Was named international designer of the year at the 15th annual style awards in London. A much deserved award if you ask me. Since the passing of  Alexander McQueen. Burton worked alongside Lee McQueen for more than 14 years. Since her appointment, Burton has produced two acclaimed collections. Her debut in Spring/Summer 2011 was a showcase of intricate craftsmanship and in Autumn/Winter 2011, Burton continues to focus on handcraft, establishing herself as an accomplished designer with artisan and technical excellence.
Today, Burton supervises the creative direction and development of all collections of the brand which includes women’s and men’s ready-to-wear and accessories as well as the contemporary line, McQ which is also made up of women’s, men’s and accessories collections. Alexander McQueen is one of the most sought after brands in fashion and will always be as long Burton is involved.

Is Designer Christian Louboutin Working With Swizz Beatz ?

Well word in the fashion and music world. The answer to that question is YES. The Super Producer Swiss Beats and Mr. Louboutin the "red bottoms" producer are cooking up something magical. The New York times reported that Mr. Louboutin will be recording a song for the 20th anniversary event for his famous red sole high heel collection. As a spectator and lover of his shoes womens and mens I hope that Mr. Louboutin dosent plan on laying any tracks. I expect they asign a DOPE artist on the song and show some of the sick designs he can put on one's foot for a mere couple thousabds of guap dollars.

Beyusus! is BAD!

Beyonce's First and second sighting since giving birth to Blue Ivy!

Kanye is Going Back! Back! to Paris for fashion week that is.

Kanye West is expected to show his DW line again this March in Paris Fashion Week says WWD (Womens Wear Daily). The line was not well received at its last showing but I as a personal fan of Mr. West's music and fashion hope that it gets it much due success and praise. For the sake of Kanye's ego. I would hate for someone so talented to go down as just a celebrity who had a clothing line and not a Fashion Designer Legend that I know he can be. Plenty of people will criticize him for his work few will see his genius as always though. Here is to Kanye from the Chi. To a guy from the G. Good Luck man!

i'm late but here are my favorites from the Golden Globes!

GOLDEN GLOBES FAVORITE LOOKS!!
Charlize Theron in Dior
 Amber Riley in Badgley Mischka 





  Sofia Vergara - one statement "Ms.Wang..Ms.Wang...Ms.WANG!"
