Forget Hug a Hoodie, Rock a Hoodie!

I absolutley LOVE hooded jackets! Even way before the government decided that hoodies where the feral ASBO youth's choice of uniform, I've been rocking hoodies. Hoodies being paraded down the Stella McCartney, Vivienne Westwood, and Chanel runways during the Spring/ Summer and Autumn/Winter shows was something I did not expect to see, but it left me anticipating the High Street's interpretations. However, the high street did not catch on to the trend in a way I expected them too, but I stumbled across a chic looking hoody by Forever 21 $19.80



Diddy's White Party

Once again, P.Diddy threw his infamous White Party, and the stars turned up looking all angelic in their white outfits. Among the celebrities that turned up, Mariah, Angela Simmons and Selita Ebanks showed up. Selita's Herve Leger body con dress looked hot on her, but I think Mariah's dress could have been longer and Angela's trouser's could have been skinnier.





I have always imagined what it would be like to attend the Hiva's white party. Making sure that you are wearing the whitest of white clothes (I heard that some guy had to take off his trousers because they were 'off' white) must be kind of stressfull. Here's what I would probably wear if (by magic) I had an opportunity to attend one of these.

Jamelia was looking electric in a Blue wet look dress, and you can't help but notice her chest-seems like someone is trying to show Darren Byfield what he is missing. Naomi Campbell (with Lewis Hamilton) was there looking fabulous in her black and white halterneck dress. Rosario Dawson (pictured with Kanye West) was also there wearing a red pin-tucked Moschino dress.

mini news: Pierre Hardy 4 Gap

French designer Pierre Hardy will be designing a capsule collection for Gap, and I can't tell you how excited I am. His designs are always so simple yet so beautiful, and this particular collection will be for the European section of the Gap company.

Rouge Lips

Red lips always add a touch of sofistication to any ensemble, and they are an accessory in its self. With it's many connotations, red lipsticks will have you feeling sexy, strong and very vixen-like. It was all over the spring/summer and autumn/winter catwalks, on models strutting their stuff for the likes of Valentino and Gucci, and it's even on the Red Carpet on stars such as Gwen Stefani, Scarlett Johansen, Beyonce and many more. Seeing as this website is for my brown sistas, you can check Rihanna rocking deep red lips. I'll try and look for more females of all shades of brown so you can see what shade suits you, remember the darker you are, the darker and richer you can go.
