Kelis Did It First… Again!
Back in August 6, 2009, New York Post’s blog had this to say about Kelis‘ new look at the time (her blue hair):
Just like rappers sample other singers tracks, Kelis has taken it upon herself to riff on Rihanna’s new peacock do. And in true remix style, she’s thrown way too much at the original, [...]
Collection Spotlight: Marchesa Spring 2010
I never covered the Spring 2010 collections, besides the Milan shows and some of the Paris ones, honestly because I was being lazy. But recently going through collections, I have officially chosen my favorite collection from Spring 2010, and I’m not the only one:
Blake Lively, Rihanna and Katy Perry have all worn pieces from the [...]
Chanel’s Lightbulb Heels (I Know, I’m Late!)
How could I have missed this? First seen on Chanel’s Fall 2008 runway, these technically advanced shoes is still all the rage 1 year and 3 seasons later. (Seriously, how could I have missed this?):
The shoes are made out of goat skin sprinkled with sequin and the lightbulb heels can unscrew and are battery operated [...]

Diddy Is A HSN Hit!
Rap mogul Diddy took a seat on the couch of the Home Shopping Network to sell his fragrances and other Sean John products on Monday night, and while many skeptics said he would not sell out fragrances on the network, since people feel the need to smell fragrances before they purchase, he proved them wrong!

Michelle Obama: That Girl Is Fancy…
“All she do is shop until she drop, like there ain’t no floor…” The First Lady, Michelle-O, definitely has an all over appeal as it pertains to fashion and style. From J. Crew to Jason Wu, her versatility is evident and her ability to transition from the more affordable to the extremely high-end has allowed [...]
R.I.P. GIANT Magazine

GIANT Magazine, which started in October 2004 and catered to the urban music market, has suspended it’s print edition. Here’s the official word via a press release:

Emerging Style Star: Keke Palmer
Okay, let’s run down Keke Palmer’s resume: singer, actress, executive producer of her own show, and fashion line. Did I mention she was only 16? Yes! Barely old enough to go to events unsupervised yet she is making big moves that people twice her age can’t even do. Not only is she fabulous as a young [...]

For today’s ‘GQ [...]
