Celeb Style Emmy's


This Week's Look

Aug 30 - Sept 3


Who: Lea Michele (of hit show Glee)


What she wore: Oscar de la Renta midnight blue gown with multi-color diamond Lorraine Schwartz necklace and satin Swarovski clutch.

Definitely my favorite gown of the evening. The Navy Blue compliments her in so many different ways, her skin tone, the color in her hair. Bravo Lea!

Trend Report! Fall 2010 Men



It looks like men will be taking flight this season. Just about all of the designers in Milan Men's Fashion Week had some type of flight/bomber jacket in their collections for this fall/winter 2010/2011 season. These flight jackets are definitely a stylish way to keep warm this season.

Trend Report! Fall 2010




Animal prints (one of my personal favorites) are being spotted (no pun intended) on runways as well. When one article of clothing is your focus in your look it can be pulled off very well. You will see alot accessories with prints like booties, flats, scarves, gloves and bags.



Cropped pants have been a trend since the spring but they are a good transition piece that you can take into the fall season. I've seen them in all kinds of fabrics, khaki cargos, cords, twill, etc. They pair nicely with booties and even a strappy shoe while it's still kind of warm out like Leighton Meister is wearing above.



Fur accents have been seen on many runways for this fall. I'm not particularly a fan of wearing fur but depending on how it's worn it can look fab!



Plaids and utilitarian boots are definitely a hot ticket item for this fall. When worn together it gives off that "outdoorsy" look. Definitely a nice look for the fall season.

The September Issue


Halle Berry makes history by being the first black woman to make the cover of Vogue's September issue since Naomi Campbell in 1989. I'm looking forward to buying this issues. It's one of the more popular and will probably sell very fast. Check it out.

Melanie Fiona and Trey Songz model for Rocawear








So it looks like Melanie Fiona and Trey Songz will be the new faces of Rocawear. With fall right around the corner many fashion designers and clothing lines are releasing what they will have for the fall season. Rocawear is known to use celebrities for majority of their campaigns. I think these two were a great decision they look great on camera. This photoshoot looks like it tells a story as well. See all the pics here!





Weekend Fun

Over the weekend I went to the Spirit Soul Fest in Columbia, MD. This concert probably had the best line up I've seen in awhile. I got a chance to hear the sounds of Janelle Monae, B.O.B., Common, The Roots, and Erykah Badu. Here's some pics of the performers.

Happy Birthday President Obama!!!




Today is a very special person's birthday. My President, BARACK OBAMA, turns 49 today! He's definitely one of the most iconic political figures that America has seen since JFK. Smart, sophisticated, and that cool, calm, and collected attitude you can't help like him. I hope he enjoys his day! Happy Birthday Obama!

Kanye West's New Movement




So if you haven't noticed already, Kanye has been seen suited up in almost all of the appearance's he's made on the gossip blogs, faceboook, outings, meetings etc. Upscale Hype gave us the scoop on the why Kanye is actually wearing these suits. Kanye calls it the "Rosewood Movement" which is closely related to the people of Rosewood during the Civil Rights era. I'm sure you seen some of his tweets, one in particular I noticed saying he had alot of "YSL suits" to try on for the night. Some say this is just a ploy to help promote the album but you really can't call it when it comes to him. Let me know what you think of Kanye's new look.
