When fASHion attacks



Looks like Dawn got some fairy ash on those knees. In addition to the four layers of visable solid she applied to her underarms. I know DK is going through some ruff times, but don't let it show, Dawn. We actually like you. LOTS.




Slash is black???!!!!!

All you Guns N Roses fans...well, actually, people who have a general knowledge of pop culture will be stunned to find out that Slash is the B word. No, not behind bars, bailed out or back. As the HBO documentary The Black List: Volume One showed, dude is BLACK!!!! Puzzled? Yeah, me too. To be accurate, Slash is half Nigerian and half Jewish-British. An interesting observation, nonetheless. I guess now I see it [side glance]. Or maybe I'm late. But I def. didn't get the Jennifer Beals sniff-a-black with this one. Some of y'all know what I'm talking about.




Fashion Week Welcome Back!!!!

Alright y'all, I've been a little absent (blame it on the sun, the mundanity of everyday work, or maybe summer induced laziness). But do not fear, lovely cakes; fall is back and so am I! So what better way commence a new season than with a lil style, right? New York was all a buzz this past week as Mercedes Benz Fashion Week took center stage in Bryant Park. My fav look for Spring 09? WHITE! I've picked out some highlights from top collections. Let me know what you think.
