Model of the Year Award..

Model Jordan Dunn has been re-vamping the fashion industry with her smooth coco brown skin and tall stature for the past years and making remarkable history at that. This England born native was discovered shopping with a friend in Primark. Soon after she signed with Storm Management in 2006 in London. The same year that she posed for Allure magazine, photographed by Michael Thompson,she was prized in 2007 as British Vogue.com as the "new star". In 2007 she walked in Alexander McQueen and Hermes show in Paris. While in February 2008 she became the first black model to walk in the runway show in ten years.Dunn recently won the 2008 Model of the Year award announced by the British Fashion Council. I'm proud that we are taking a step forward in giving public appreciation to diversity.

Fall Hair Accessories

Fall Fabulously into the new season with a new take on your hair-do. Start a great innovative look by applying hair accessories into your fall wardrobe. With several designers catching on to the fabulous trend of applying hair applications, this look ends in a chic and simple elegance that adds an edge and quality. Try neutral colors of grays, browns, or blacks, which are very smooth and natty. This appears to be easy to work into your wardrobe anytime of the day. I personally think this is very vintage and fresh look at the same time. I'm a big fan of headbands with appliques of dark feathers with a touch of color to add a vibrant feel, along with ruby overbearing embellished rings. ( that's a whole different topic in itself. ) You can find these darlings online at several retailers worldwide.

TRACEY REESE RTW 2008...

Though Winter 2008 is coming amongst us, designer Tracey Reese is already blooming on the anticpated Spring 2008 runway with her vibrant colors of jade and necterine and airy fabrics of chiffon and soft silks. This season she is dressing her women in soft silhouettes that are sultry and feminine with it's clean lines, soft emphasises on the waist and sweet heart necklines that I happen to be a huge fan of. I love the applications of appliques among her many designs and soft layering in her dresses that are yet detailed and comfortable for an evening out as well. Spring designs sre anticipated to be a very fun one, filled with bold colors and soft silhouettes.
Much awaits us all.

Its about that time of the year again, and it's not just about Thanksgiving. The 2009 Victoria's Secret fashion show has made it's annual mark once again, as it's super sexy, sassy bedroom hair-ed, and gorgeously bronzed skinned models made their way on the phenomenal catwalk in Miami, FL this past week. Models Heidi Klum, Adriana Lima, and Ebanks hit the runway while premiering the latest sexiest lingerie in the world. Along with celebrity guest that flew in for the big event, Usher, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, Gabrielle Union and many more were all smiles for the press. Usher had the pleasure of performing for the show and looked extremely pleased to be amoungst the models as they strutted their signature walks on the runway. That's not where all the festivites ended for the night. It's seems that things were just getting started at the after party at LIV Club in downtown Miama with A-list guest that accompanied the event. For one of the most ancipated fashion shows on television I'm sure the viewers will not be let down. The Victoria Secret's Show will be premiring on CBS December 3,2008.

Makeup Trends of 2008

Make Me Up 2008 Trends....

Makeup is a way for women to express their individual artistic persona without the components of clothing. Whatever you may prefer I incorporated some great fashion makeup trends for this season. I picked two of my favorite makeup looks that alters from lips, and eyes. For Lips, try berry stained lips. Very 40's inspired, with a neutral eye, which will attract all the attention to the lip. How to wear it: For this look its important to draw attention to the lips and not look overdone. For the eye go for a neutral blend of browns and creamy colors and less color. This look will look perfect for an evening outing, as not so much for a day event.

For Eyes I chose a Smokey eye which is very sultry and sexy. My favorite eye application for a nice outing with my friends. How to wear it: Its important to make your eyes the focal point if you go for this look; either pale pink or neutral lips help to do this. It's okay to experiment with other colors as well with blues, and purples which are big for winter fashion 2008 eye wear. This look is perfect for a night event, but a day event will work just as well. By just adding soft colors to the black shadow to soften up the eye. Try a nude lip, and colors like gold,brown, or soft pink on the eye to add a airy feminine touch.


I hope these suggestions will get fashionista's to step
outside the box to explore a more glamorous feel
on fashion. Happy reading.

Beyonce Graces V Magazine

Beyonce, aka known as Sasha Fierce, graces the #56 edition to V Magazine Winter 2008 issue. She sits down to discuss her album, and who Sasha Fierce really is. The beauty states," When I'm on stage. I’m aggressive and strong and not afraid of my sexuality. The tone of my voice gets different, and I’m fearless. I’m just a different person. It’s a way for me to differentiate what I do onstage from who I really am. It’s a way for me to not lose myself, to keep my life in perspective, because it’s really hard sometimes to stay on Earth when you’re a celebrity." Well put I might add. The workaholic diva adds that this persona helps her perform better and she often feels like she is in a different world on stage in comparison to any other feeling that is imaginable. Editor in Chief, Stephen Gan was elated to add Mrs. Knowles to the V cover family, adding that Beyonce is a great iconic figure to the music and fashion industry and people love her. I agree. Beyonce brings the whole fierce package that ignites women to want to go throw on a pair of Christian Louboutin heels and dance to her feet hurt. She's a true figure of style, grace, and confidence that people just fall in love with. Gotta love her.
