Is NICKI MINAJ Really Petite or Is Her GUCCI Purse Really Big?


Either way, NICKI MINAJ is really looking HOTT when she's not so much into her VERY VIBRANT VIBE. Check out her GUCCI purse, which is a really popular model called the Jockey Hobo, for about $1,400. I see a few women with these, 7 out of 10 which are probably KNOCK-OFFS *LoL*, but still nice, nonetheless...

But I have an illusion here in deciding whether the purse is HUGE or Nicki is really small...

Ladies, pair this up with anything that includes denim jeans, and you are good to go!!

WHAT THE... WHY??? Birdman Buys A $8 MILLION Supercar!!


Now I'm not one to talk about this kind of music that Birdman makes, just fashion, but I do have to call out something RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW.

People have been speculating whether Cash Money CEO Birdman had purchased an $8M Maybach Exelero.* And guess what.... HE DID... he tweeted that he did:

“8million 0n a whip all red.blievetht.custom made.ymcmb.”
          

This just made me plain fall out. WHY?? In the name of beneficial non-profits needing funding, in the name of hunger worldwide, WHYYYYY??? There's nothing wrong with having maybe an $8 MILLION MANSION if someone has plenty of money to spare  or maybe an $8 MILLION building to do good deeds for people, but an $8 MILLION supercar just to satisfy an ego? Do you know how many self-esteems/egos $8 MILLION can boost up with receiving a trunk full of free groceries or clothes??

Birdman, CASH MONEY RECORDS... Stop this FOOLERY!!!

*The Maybach Exelero has a ridiculous price of $8 MILLION. The only perk to the price is that Maybach will build this car ONLY if you request it to be built; a serious down payment is needed first, and you have full control on all color/texture/performance options of the car, included in the price tag.

MAAAN, I can go to the CUSTOM SHOP for that!!

My Not So High Bun: 4/29/2011



I've been rocking Tammy for the past two weeks or so and I just wanted to give my hair a break for a bit so today I attempted to put my hair into a high bun. For some reason, I can never get my hair into as high of a bun as I want to lol. I like it though. It's simple, understated, and perfect for a Friday. I may be wearing more buns as the mercury rises but only time will tell. :)

First Impressions: Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Moisture Retention Shampoo




The other day I decided to try this shampoo on a whim. I have seen a lot of relaxed ladies on LHCF rave about how awesome this shampoo is and decided to give it a go. I have to admit that I was kinda skeptical about this shampoo because I wasn't too impressed with the deep conditioner from this line. Either way, I wanted to test this shampoo for myself.

I purchased this shampoo at my local Walgreens (it can also be purchased at Target) and it cost me $9.99+tax. for 12oz which places it on the expensive side compared to my staple Elasta QP Creme Conditioning Shampoo (I can get a huge bottle of Elasta QP for less than $9.00. Like most of the products in the Shea Moisture line, the ingredients are natural.

Ingredients: Deionized water, decyl glucoside (sugar beets), African Butryospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), aloe vera leaf juice, argan oil, panthenol (Vitamin B-5), rosemary extract, sea kelp extract, vitamin E, Lonicera caprifolium (honeysuckle) flower and Lonicera Japonica (Japanese honeysuckle) extract.

Claims: This shampoo claims to be gentle and will help to "soften, moisturize, and repair damaged, over processed hair."

My First Impressions

It seems to me that the products from this line (well, the products I've used thus far) have a characteristic cake batter scent. Consistency-wise, I would have to say it is no different than any other shampoo-not too watery and not too thick. My only complaint is that you kinda have to work to squeeze the product of the bottle. I think it would be great if you could distribute the product through a pump instead of a squeeze bottle but that is must my personal preference.

In Action

To be a natural shampoo, this 'poo lathers up quite nicely (unlike a certain shampoo by Carol's Daughter). I find that it rinses out easily too (I wasn't rinsing my hair out forever and a day just to get that stuff out like I have to do with Elasta QP). Now let me say that I LOVE LOVE LOVE this shampoo! Once I rinsed the shampoo out, my hair felt so soft and moisturized! I have to say that I was shocked because when I used other natural shampoos, my hair felt stripped as all get out (I'm looking at you Kinky Curly Come Clean and Giovanni Smooth as Silk). I couldn't believe it! My hair was so moisturized that I could have skipped my DC if I wanted to.

Bottom Line: I'm impressed! Although I'm going to have to use this shampoo a little bit more to get a definitive impression on the product, I generally know within the first use if a product is good for my hair or not. I must say that this shampoo is a keeper! For now, I give this product a 5 out of 5!

A Look-Back: Beyonce's Fashion In "Single Ladies" and "DIVA" Video



I'm just taking a look back at Beyonce's styles in the notorious music video 'Single Ladies' and the sassy bad girl video "DIVA." it's hard to believe that these are considered OLD music videos, yet the strengths of these videos make it appear so fresh and recent.

Some of Beyonce's looks, especially the swimsuit in 'Single Ladies', can definitely rock out at the beach, while the rest of the looks in 'DIVA' can easily incorporate itself into a high-powered photo shoot (should you ladies ever decide to do one).

Take a look at the videos and more screen shots:

'Single Ladies'




'DIVA'



Even though this is from 2009, this kind of look will still SCORCH and SMOLDER in 2011...
THE ONLY JAIDEN applauds the power of this look that can still turn heads after 2 years. An effect like that is considered CLASSIC.
