RANDOM FASHIONISTA GIRL Has ILLEST Shoe Game I've Seen All Month!

This girl above is no music artist or major celebrity, but she could very well pass off, especially for her electric style and those color-blocking BOOTS she's wearing. 'Iris from Philadelphia' was found on Fashion Bomb Daily as bombshell of the day, and I can see why.

The boots are Iris's own creation/customization... HMMM... it should make its way into a boutique because I think the ladies would love 'em, and the guys' temperature will go HOT on a COLD day when they see their girl wearing these boots.

Can't find the boots? Visit your local CRAZIEST and outlandish shoe shop; it's more than likely you would find color-blocking boots like these.

Check Out Fash Blogger Allen Onyia, Owner of Blog UPSCALE HYPE (Style)

One of my favorite fashion blogs, UPSCALE HYPE, has for the first time landed its own post on my blog. This time, it's all about the owner, Allen Onyia, better known as ALLEN O . This is the first time I've seen his style. Very preppy, forward, all-American, makes his style his own.

I could call it TRENDY, but TRENDY isn't quite the word; FASHIONISTO is, because fashionistas and fashionistos take trendy clothes, flip 'em, and try to stay out-of-box....like me. I can include a thrift-store vintage jacket, Urban Outfitters T-shirt, broken-in Levis, monochromatic watch, and my FAV military boots... and there's my LOOK.

Check out Allen's different looks:

Big Ups to you, Allen! Contact me anytime...

Fashion Review: CELEBS Who Attend Fashion Shows



Diddy, Dawn, and Kalenna  at the Dior Homme Fall/Winter 2011-2012 Fashion Show

Hey y'all...It's a fresh, new day and a chance to look forward to a great, healthy, and prosperous day no matter the weather or circumstance, the same way fashion designers look toward the coming seasons and creating an excellent line.

Now, we see fashion around us all the time. It doesn't have to apply to just clothes. It's in architecture. It's in the design of a concept car. It's in even the ergonomic feel of a pen. Fashion invokes a feeling, a fluttering, primitive sense of euphoria when a new design is first spotted. The eyes are drawn to the way it accentuates the body (for both men & women). Fashion captivates...from the 'fashion connoisseur' sitting front-row at an exclusive fashion show in Paris, to the young urban guy checking out some flyy kicks in Detroit. 

Fashion is the unspoked language that draws people together in like interest, even the busiest celebrities. Now I don't need to say a whole lot about what celebs do when it comes to fashion. They OOZE it. It's an attention-getter. It's got to be EXPENSIVE or EXCLUSIVE. It's gotta make people want it. It's gotta be full of swag, timelessness, whatever the celeb is looking for.

So, without further ado, I want to post a couple pics of different celebs embracing fashion shows (some are actually designers like Diddy of Sean John or Kanye West of Louis Vuitton). So go ahead and check out the latest pictures of fashion shows that celebs have attended. They SURELY enjoy fashion, and the same goes for many of us fashionistas (source:Zimbio and of course, my owwwwn self *LoL*).

...Anyone can love fashion! For those of you who don't know, you don't have to be an A-List to get front-row privilege! Search in your city for a local fashion show, mingle with the coordinator, and BADA-BOOM-BING, you get a front seat and/or VIP.. :-)

DRAKE And RIHANNA Together?? Fashionista & Swooner Unite...

So whaddaya think about RIHANNA and DRAKE hooking up? I know it's not really my business and my business on this blog is fashion, but this could possibly mean big things for the sexy fashionista and the lady swooner. Matt Kemp... well.... he's his own person but he might be a little out of his league for Rihanna--just a thought.

But in this picture swings Drake next to Rihanna's side. "Rihanna and Drake" or "Drake and Rihanna" has really captivated the media world ever since Rihanna's release of 2010 song "What's My Name?" The music video really gave people a glimpse into "what could be" of Rihanna and Drake. See the video and keep onnnnnn reading.....

For those of you who can't see how Drake could measure up to Rihanna over Matt Kemp, just see a brief note about his accomplishments below: 

Drake is the highest-earning newcomer on the [Forbes] list. He banked $9 million over the past 12 months, thanks to a new record deal, an advertising pact with Sprite and an agreement with Virgin America that plasters his likeness onto the sides of airplanes. Another good decision: recruiting Lil Wayne and Jay-Z to appear on his debut album, Thank Me Later, which sold 447,000 copies in its first week.

Rihanna earns roughly $15 million from all similar ventures.

Hmm.... we'll see how all this will play out. Should make a cute couple....
