Latest Love: Gasoline Glamour

gasoline_glamour2

Can you imagine wearing a gun around your neck? No one would F’ with you.  I’ve had the pleasure to see these balls-y beauties in person. Super dangerous and super rockin. I love love love everything about these concoctions. They’ve been seen in numerous fashion spreads and that new Mariah Carey video with Nicki Minaj Ninja. That bomb ass necklace Ninja is wearing? Gasoline Glamour. Rumor has it, Rihanna’s been eyeing a few of them. I could see her blinged out in nothing BUT a necklace. Below are more of the designs. Each piece is over a grand, so if you have that kinda money, or a suga daddy, check them out at www.gasolineglamour.com

Latest Love: Jerell Scott

bubble_2494_600x800

A former Project Runway contest, Jerell Scott is one of my new favorite designers. His designs are gritty, yet girly and I cannot get enough. I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Scott at my current internship at Chic Little Devil and he is also oh so humble. That’s what I like to see! Feathers, sequins, satin, and ombre dyes are just  few of many details you’ll be able to expect when you see his line. Get more of him at www.jerrelscottdesign.com.

Team Irina!

irinashabayeva_1

Project Runway fans, you might disagree with me but….I want Irina to win!!!

I could care less if  a designers is nicknames “Meana Irina,”  the girl has skills! And compared to her final competitors, I think she’s going to take the cake. Carol Hannah completely bores me. I want a designer who makes WEARABLE clothes to win, not gowns I’d wear to the Oscars, (yeah, cause I’ll be going this year!) Althea has a really cool, modern taste BUT it always seem wrong is some way. Plus, I love Irina’s sarcastic personality. Sometimes, being a bitch is necessary.

Some of my favorite Irina looks are below.0000062494_20091102105706The whole look is flawless and completely wearable for ANY woman.

0000060406_20090824170318Drop. Dead. Gorgeous.

irinaLove, love, love.

I’m a FAUX fur fan. Not down with the real fur though.

Now, your time to tell us who you think should win.

Irina?

Althea?

Carol Hannah?

What They Wore: Camilla Belle in Alexander McQueen

camilla-bell-1139-10

The best eyebrows in Hollywood showed us all that the genius, but a tad weird, Alexander McQueen Spring 2010 line IS in fact wearable!! (And not just Lady Gaga wearable) Camilla looks absolutely amazing in this McQueen creation. Everything about it is perfect. The makeup, the hair, the NUDE shoes. Someone’s stylist needs a raise! I still love the original styling though.

House of Jazmin….Mmm Child!

So….one of my previous posts mentioned to all of ya’ll about an outrageous fashion event at the House of Blues this past Saturday. Cold Flamez, art show, and talented fashion designers, including the star of MTV’s House of Jazmin. I had incredible hopes for her line, which was shown first. Well….

jazmin_d0x8871

It was terrible!

I’m not one to put other people down, but I can count designer friends on both my hands and feet that deserve a television show more than this girl. She was upstaged by every single other line there.

My friend who has a interest in fashion but cannot tell the difference between the quality of Nordstroms and Forever 21 pointed out to me

“I could get all of this at Forever 21 huh? Maybe even Charlotte Rusee?”

That isn’t a good thing Jazmin.

House of Jazmin, more like house of ugly.

Trust. I’m not taking cheap shots at a “celebrity” just because I have the means to, she really does not deserve a show.

MTV, look a little harder in L.A. for your designers. There are some amazingly  talented ones out there!

The rest of the show consisted of flirty, candy colored cocktail dresses, boundary pushing undergarments, rebel without causes denim and tees, and a neutral flashback to the 20’s done oh so perfectly.

Someone else should step their game up.

MaryKate & Ashley Step Their Game Up

Who’d a thought little Michelle Tanners were such fashion divas?!?!

After having TWO successful lines, The Row and Elizabeth & James, the twins are moving into the sunglasses biz.

the-row-sun-glasses2

WWD has the sneak peek, which I love! Theses puppies will be sold under The Row label and, my guess, will most likely be available at Nordstrom like their other lines are and will put you back a pretty penny.

Do we like? Love? Gotta have it?

Purse With A Punch

Peep the new and feisty creation from the genius that is Alexander McQueen. The Knuckle Duster Patent Clutch serves double duty as a haute fashion accessory and brass knuckles weapon at the same time. Fab, what I always wanted. Carry this baby around and its guaranteed that no drunk skanky fiends are going to want to mess with you next time you hit the club. The details on the knuckles are amazing and the clutch is just big enough to fit the essentials on a night out. Cop your own at Saks Fifth Avenue for a mere $1,595.
