WHAT I WORE : MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND SUNDAY BACKYARD BBQ

One piece jumpsuit, have you gotten one yet ?!  I've said it before & I'll say it again....it's a must have.  I have one piece jumpsuits from 2003....they never go out of style & you can dress them up or dress them down...go get one...it's an IRA...Investment Retail Apparel.  I kept the overall look low key, although I could've used some simple earrings.  I let the jumpsuit be the stand out piece, because after all I was at a backyard BBQ.

WHAT I WORE MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND: SATURDAY

When you're hanging in the LES on a Saturday night, it usually calls for something low key...since I was going to a birthday party, I threw on some heels to spice it up a little bit.

WHAT I WORE : MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND FRIDAY @ FRYING PAN

A friend recently asked me where's my sanction in New York City, where do I go to get away from it all ? Well,  on most sunny days until it just can't get sunny anymore, if I'm not working or shopping, I'm in The Frying Pan....literally...see pic!  Ironically, this is a place where everyone goes to drink which for some people drinking is their sanction, but for me it's the idea of sitting outside on a boat...over looking the city, feeling the ocean breeze...that's my serenity.

FASHION POLICE: BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARDS 2011

"Two beautiful girls stand before me" as Tyra Banks says, "But I only have one" opinion in my head.

Selina Gomez, a beautiful 19 year old girl with amazing talent, Justin Bieber as a boyfriend & also my vote for Best Dressed. Selina STOP dressing like a WOMAN! Tell your stylist what you wear is beautiful...for a 30 something year old like Charlize Theron! Dress your age like Vanessa Hudgens who is older than u btw.

Then I have Rihanna, a beautiful songstress in so many ways, who takes risks on fashion, followed for what she wears by the Paparazzi, always in an array of colors and mixed prints, & designers love your fashion edge, but for a Music Award you did like Selina and dressed like a 40 year old woman.  A white suit is beautiful, but that & the short hairdo wasn't appropriate for the show.

So who stays and who goes ?  You both get my pick as WORST DRESSED

TREND REPORT: WESTERN GIRL

The Western Trend has been around for the year, but is still as steadfast as horses galloping through a field.  Now, all it takes is to spot Cameron Diaz in short shorts and cowboy boots for this trend to go on a whole new level..meaning a lot more rhinestone belts, tarnished jewelry, over sized cowboy hats & loose trenches, revolver images on tees, western saloon influences, a rugged look & more and more of tassles and fringe....Because I Wanna Be A Cowboy Baby...

HOT MAMA


So if you've been busy like me, you might've missed Jennifer Lopez's appearance on 106th & Park to promote her new album "LOVE".  Well, I'm here to promote how much I LOVE her white cutout mini dress. Custom designed by Hakaan. With her signature "All Around The Way Girl" earrings, a mermaid sea/blue polish & silver stillettos as a finishing touch.  She's 41 and FIERCE!

MY WAY OR NO WAY JOSE

PhotobucketA few weeks ago, my friend known as "The Pizz" & I were shootin' the breeze and brainstorming on money makin' necessities and she says something along the lines "You know what I really want to do...I want to make something for jeans that adjusts your hem to your heels". I said, "WOWWWWWW that's really a great idea" with a few more "WOWS". Then the other day she sends me a picture text that had us  disappointed, but will make most women happy...the HEM IDEA WAS CREATED...read more about it at http://www.hemmingmyway.com/. That's ok Pizz..we have are other ideas :)
