jose duran, spring/summer 2010.
i won't front. i've never even heard of jose duran before peeping these pictures on fashionising.com. but i became an immediate fan of his spring/summer 2010 line. loving the bad-girl fab vibe.

alice + olivia for keds.
after seeing these, i had to post them. i used to make these! i was in junior high and me and one of my girl friends (heyyy yarnie) used to walk to k-mart, buy sequins and glue them on our keds. ok, they weren't keds. they were straight bo-bos. laverne and shirley's. no names. lol. don't hate.
alice + olivia founder, stacey bendet, says: "i don't think i removed keds from my feet as a kid. i can't even count how many pairs i had. we decided to do a collaboration that would bring a little alice + olivia fun to the 2010 keds champion."yeh, miss stacey might owe us a check. we did this first. lol. well i wouldn't do much with these, these days but they're still kinda cute, right? i mean if sequin slide-ons are your thing.
$88, neiman marcus
i'm a straight sucker for a jumpsuit.
i love them whether they're in or so-called played out. timeless look as far as i'm concerned.

opi: charged up cherry.
if my hands and feet could talk, they'd probably have cussed me out by now. for the past couple of months i've needed a trip to the nail shop. this morning i was up with the birds to run to the bank. i decided to take a quick detour to get my nails and feet done before it got too crowded.
i went with charged up cherry by opi.
i went to my usual neighborhood spot but this time a new guy did them. he asked me if i wanted a design about 3 times. he then tried to convince me twice to just paint the top half of my nail this color and leave the rest clear - like french manicure style but with pink.
aww, gotta love the creative consultation you get with your $20 full set.
but no thanks, just plain ole color for me.and i even managed to make it home without smudging them!
don't walk away.
watching old school videos like jade's don't walk away, clearly shows you how much music and videos have changed. this song released in 1993 and was a r&b banger. the video is full of old school trends - dance moves, clothes, shoes, hairstyles - i love it.
and half of yawl probably put the intro on your answering machine back in the day ... "leave your number and we'll get back to youuuuu" ... lol ... check it:

american apparel hooded swimsuit.
you smell that? what is it? it's spring! after this winter, i was seriously contemplating changing my zip code ... something more like miami. or arizona. something. anything. but spring is here. and i'm pumped.
one of my friends on the book (facebook) posted this sexy, hooded swimsuit from american apparel. now i ain't been in no one's pool since ... since ... i can't even remember. but this makes you want to go find a pool. am i right or wrong (as my nana used to say)?
very rihanna/amber rose'ish.

because you need yet another tube of lip gloss.
yeh right. if you're anything like me, your make-up bag is full of lip stuff. i can't resist. just the other day, i hit up the little beauty store and bought two new lip glosses. i may need intervention. but uh, don't you just love the packaging of these:
it's the pretty wild color and shine lip gloss by mark. high shine and a minty flavor, they come in 3 shades: candy fix, hey baby and honey child. i want candy fix.
7 bucks over at the mark site.

"you don't have to signal a social conscience by looking like a frump.
lace knickers won't hasten the holocaust, you can ban the
bomb in the feather boa just as well without, and a mild
interest in the length of hemlines doesn't necessarily
disqualify you from reading das kapital and agreeing

vintage music saturdays: poison. bbd 20 years later.
can you believe it's been 20 years since bell biv devoe broke off from new edition, created bbd and dropped poison. this was the ish. i was in junior high. yikes.
back then, r&b guys with hip hop swags weren't ubiquitous like they are today. yeh, bbd was talking about big butts, smiles and clocking hoes. and don't forget smack it up, flip it, rub it down. (oh noooooooo ... )
furthermore, i don't think anyone saw the success of the group coming. new edition was hugely popular and frontmen ralph tresvant and johnny gill bounced in 1989 to do the solo thing. bbd ended up outshining both of their solo efforts. although yawl know sensitivity was my song.
so i had to make poison my throwback pick today. this song still gets people up off the wall and onto the dance floor. still. respect it.
