her steeze.

9.30.2010

now playing: lady saw, if i were a rich girl.

rising up.

not really old, not really new. my ish. rising up by the roots (philly!) featuring chrisette michelle and my man wale. good music:

... or a headwrap that looks like one? solange was spotted looking supa-flyy at the launch of guess seductive at the colony in la. turbans are the new rage although some folks (think e. badu) have been rocking them since way back. i'm loving her look. not sure if i'll participate in this trend but i'm digging it. co-signed!

heidi klums hands in her angel wings.

after a 13 year collaboration, heidi klum will leave victoria's secret. She told the page six, "all good things have to come to an end. i will always love victoria's secret. it has been an absolutely amazing time."

always good to walk out on your own instead of being booted. she had a great run.

i'm wearing my new boots today.

because it's raining and it's pouring and i'd rather be home snoring. but i'm up and at 'em. the weatherman says it's gonna rain all day and i really wasn't sure which side of the closet to pull from. although i'm pretty ready for fall fashion, part of me is reluctant to say farewell to flip-flops and linen.

vintage music: every little step i take.

my hubby just showed this to me and i am rolling. remember bobby's brown 1988 smash, every little step i take? this jawn used to rock ... i just sat here reciting the whole song.

you've gots to see this spoof featuring wayne brady, 50 cent and bobby brown. hilarious. bahaaaaaaa. i can't stop laughing at tyson's no-rhythm having behind.

mister boots.

i saw these boots and i immediately thought of mister. like as in the color purple mister. kinda funny. i'm kinda iffy about these but in general i'm digging the combat style boots trend. it screams comfort and chill. there's always gonna be room for the overtly-sexy look but i appreciate the covertly-sexy steeze once and a while too. could you rock these:

werner, steve madden, $159.95

what do you think? yay? nay?

topshop heads to chi-town.

lucky ducks.

according to wwd, a new topshop is in the works for michigan avenue in chicago. stores in vegas, la and san francisco are also in the works.

my only question: can dc get some love?!

christian siriano for payless, spring 2011.

word on the street is that christian siriano (my favorite winner from project runway) debuted his spring 2011 shoe collection for payless during new york fashion week.

i'll have to see it - in an actual payless store - to believe it

in the words of siriano himself: fierce!

remember when we used to rock: finger watches.

i can't remember the exact year but i know we rocked them briefly. i'm guessing it was some time during the late 80s/early 90s. and i recall that we didn't rock them for the time. they were strictly fashion pieces. but of course.

here's a gold version by melodi ehsani. $15 here.

where those bloggers at, where those bloggers at, where they at, where they at, where they at.

right here rihanna. and we have a mean side eye right now.

the other day, rihanna stepped out to ago restaurant in a polka dot church hat, a wife b with x'd out boobies and brown slacks. if anyone else was spotted in this get-up, you'd be questioning their use of narcotics. i think i can take it all except the hat. that hat.

but do you, rih rih. and keep us bloggers talking. sorry the photos are so tiny. i snatched them from here.

lala's full court wedding.

lala's full court wedding premieres tonight at 10:30 pm on vh-1. yes, another reality show that will follow lala and carmelo as they plan their wedding. the couple tied the knot back in july. will you be watching? i will. and not just because carmelo is absolutely gorgeous. with a cute style. and a charming smile. nope. not just because of that.

am i the only one who thinks, at quick glance, that carmelo and lala look a lot like jay and beyonce?

only melo and lala always look a bit more lovey dovey.

vintage music saturday: dream on dreamer.

what you know about the brand new heavies? last night, me and hubby were watching vh1 soul and he asked me if i remembered this cut. i can't say i was that down with the group while coming up but i definitely remember this song. the acid jazz and funk group emerged back in 85 out of england. dream on dreamer came out in 1994. check it:
