BBC & BP3 Dope Tee

Hey Fellas,

Tomorrow, Billionaire Boys Club will be releasing a set of 3 shirts celebrating the release of Jay-Z's Blueprint 3 album. Each shirt reveals a different message. The shirt will cost approximately $78 and will release at BBC/Ice Cream Japan first with a US release soon thereafter.

These tees are pretty dope. 'So Ambitious' is one of my favorite songs on BP3 (Blue Print 3).

I wonder if they will have girl sizes. I love positive message planted across my chest! :)






Once I get word on the US release date- I will update you guys.
Do you like?
Until Next Time

Magazine Madness: Forbes 2009 list

Hey People,
Forbes has announced its 2009 list of the most powerful fashion magazine editors in the US, with Anna Wintour gaining the top spot in the midst of outbreak of publicity for The September Issue. Which I still have not seen… SMH@ me…



The annual ranking is comprised by calculating everything from year-on-year circulation, ad pages and advertising revenue stats to the number of unique web users the magazine has and how many times the editor's name has been entered on Factiva and Google Blog Search.
Despite the fact that at US Vogue, year-on-year ad sales were reported to be down 26% during H1 2009, the hype behind the release of The September Issue this month and Wintour's subsequent promo for it, as well as her role setting up the Fashion's Night Out event worldwide, gives her the editor's crown.

She knocks Cindi Leive of Glamour from 2008's number one spot. Leive subsequently slips to number two, albeit with an outstanding web presence - Glamour.com's web traffic is up 54% year-on-year to 1.3 million, while Style.com (Vogue's web counterpart) is down 9% to just 344,189, according to Comscore.



The two top hitters are closely followed by Elle's Robbie Myers; More's Leslie Jane Seymour and Allure's Linda Wells



Next up comes Glenda Bailey of Harper's Bazaar at number six, then another newcomer and the only male on the list, Ariel Foxman of InStyle at number seven; Kate White of Cosmopolitan at eight; Joanna Coles of Marie Claire at nine; and Ann Shoket of Seventeen at 10.






Congrats to those hard working editors that keep us intrigued, updated on the latest in the Fashion world, inspiration, fashion trivia and keep us buying the magazines....

I have to do an honorable mention for Editor-in-chief Angela Burt-Murray of Essence Magazine.


Essence is the only magazine I read cover to cover. Essence is not your average fashion magazine, however it speaks to the lifestyle of Black Women along with beauty and fashion.

LOVE IT!!!

Until Next Time

Sneaker Lovas: Supra Skytops

Hey Sneaker Heads!!!

Whats up fellas- this is strictly for my sneaker heads- those who will pay hundreds and hundreds of dollars on sneakers and spend the night on never ending lines the night before a sneaker drops just to cop a pair.... lol

Now that is dedication.

I was surfing the web- as I always do- and came across these sneaks...
It caught my attention because I heard of the brand Supra before-
You can see your average sneaker head wearing them to your favorite celebrities.

I'm not really into Men sneakers like that, I not familiar of what sneaks are out, or debuting, but these caught my eye- thought I share with my stylicious male readers :)










New looks into upcoming Supra Skytops can be seen here. Three new models all share a similar tonal demeanor in colors such as black, red and gray. The black and gray versions feature a woven upper while the red one is featured in patent leather. No word yet on a release date, stay tuned for more details.

These are pretty dope. I like the red. I can see those being MURDERED!
What do you guys think?

Until Next Time

Fall Fashion: Red-Wing Boots

Hey fellas....

So this pass weekend my the BF was looking thru his monthly Urban Outfitters catalog... (don't you love it how you purchase one thing online from a site, all of a sudden you are a preferred custy receiving catalogs... makes you feels so warm and fuzzy inside..... ) anywho... He was eyeing some cool winter boots.
As we discussed- like we always do when we see something we like... I shared with him my thoughts of guys wearing cool high-top boots for the Fall. Some guys may question it... but they are really cool looking... once you style it up right....

After some web searching- I came across the brand Red-Wing-


Red-Wing 2009 Fall collection

Red-Wing- Urban Outfitters

Red-Wing Jcrew.com


I fancy the high top ones than that low top- but cool nonetheless.


Styling tips: Try to keep it simple- a Fall Quilted Jacket and a great pair of washed jeans would look dope. Add some hat swag and pair up a paper boy hat!











Fellas what you think? are yall sold? Will you guys be pushing the envelop soon?

Until Next Time

Fall Fashion: Stud Boots!

Hey Lovelies... (did I spell that correctly? lol)

Yep I'm up early... had a couple of dreams last night and one of them were about these Black biker stud boots. In the dream I was rocking them with a SICK leather biker jacket.... hahah

I know I have alot of random dreams. But I said to myself.... this is BIG for Fall.
Why not post studded boots for my readers
I know I know... I'm sooo sweet ;)
The the studded and embellished boot are great transitional pieces. It can take your look from cool/casual chick to sexy sizzle stylista.

I searched the web for some affordable- and not so affordable options for you.


Pour La Victoire, $380.00- intermixonline.com


BE & D, $598.00- shopbop.com

Betsy Johnson, $420.00- mywardrobe.com
Gucci, $796.00- bluefly.com

Free People, $198.00- freepeople.com I actually think these are really cool!
Aldo, $140.00- aldoshoes.com

Aldo Shoes, $130.00- aldoshoes.com

What do you guys think? Are you sold on the heavy studded boots?
Side note: You guys can always exercise your DIY skills. Get a pair of plain booties, biker boots, ankle boots (go to a wet seal, or a Charolette Rouse, or even a vintage shop to save you the headache of spending alot of money) and apply your own studs, pyramid studs, spike studs... and have a field day! :)
Until Next Time

Daily Dose: Rihanna Rocking her Custom Melody Ehsani

Hey sexy readers!!!

Because I am in LOVE with Rihanna's style... not her personally- she is a walking mannequin we come to ADORE... here is your daily dose of Rih Rih.
(Maybe I should make that a section on the blog- everyday for a week- showcase a celeb's style... hhmmmmm.... )
Anywho....
Rihanna was snapped on the streets yesterday in a rather cool fit- on her way to her favorite restaurant Da Silvano... AGAIN!!! lol

Rih Rih was rocking her Melody Ehsani custom made name plate!!!

I spoke of Melody Ehsani's custom jewelry some time back here on the blog.
I been meaning to get me some custom made jewels from Melody Ehsani, but not sure what I want....
Any suggestions.....


I chose to focus on her necklace because we have seen alot of statement jewelry this summer. Its an investment for the season and Melody Eshani custom pieces will definitely add a swag to your fit this Fall.
Side Note: This might be a T.M.I moment- but I always wanted a nipple ring. I am not as blessed as some chicks to rock full B's and C's cups, so I figured getting a nip ring was a way of dressing up my A cups. I do have a tat tho ;)
What do you guys think of Nip rings?
Do you ladies love Melody Ehsani's custom jewels?
Until Next Time
