Sing after me...

You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare. Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you. Sweet dream or beautiful nightmare. Somebody pinch me, your love's too good to be true.

My guilty pleasure I ain't goin nowhere... baby as long as you're here, I'll be floating on air cause you're my. You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare. Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you.

First one to identify all of her frocks shall win a kiss on the cheek from me and an oreo cookie.

Mika - Big Bryanboy, You are Beautiful

Look who I met at the Marc Jacobs Japan Independence Day party in Tokyo.

Sing after me...

Get yourself to the butterfly lounge, find yourself a big lady. Big boy, come around and there we're gonna do baby. No need to fantasize since the words are my praises, a watering hole with the girls around and curves in all the right places.

That's all.

Esteban Cortazar Out at Ungaro; Blame Lindsay Lohan

Esteban Cortazar Out at Ungaro; Blame Lindsay Lohan

Poor, poor Paris. Hollywood Hell-A trainwreck and notorious troublemaker Lindsay Lohan spares nobody and she's ruffling a few feathers in the grand city of lights. The latest casualty is young designer Esteban Cortazar, who is said to have walked out from his position at French fashion house Ungaro.

From today's Women's Wear Daily:

According to sources, the French fashion house plans to part ways with Esteban Cortazar, who has shown three collections on the runway. It is understood the designer reached an impasse with Ungaro management over its marketing and advertising strategy.

Mounir Moufarrige, Ungaro's chief executive officer, is said to be pushing for a celebrity for future ad campaigns to help wake up the house and has been in talks with about half a dozen potential candidates, including Lindsay Lohan, but they would have nothing to do with design.

Lindsay Lohan?

Lord have mercy on us.

'nuff said.

Lady Gaga Paparazzi Official Music Video

Lady Gaga Paparazzi Official Music Video

ELECTRIFYING!

I've been very wary of Lady Gaga these days because I feel like the fame is finally getting to her head and her ego is getting bigger and bigger but oh my god, have you seen her new 'Paparazzi' music video? It was just released last night in the US. She redeemed herself and she's back in my books. AMAZING!!!

OK fine. The soft core porn at the start of the video is totally unnecessary and yes, Swedish boys will totally break your heart but the fashion, oh my god the fashion! How many designer creations can you spot on the vid? I see that she wore the same print as Inna Pilipenko at Jeremy Scott Fall/Winter 2009.

Ferosha!

Madame Paulette New York Dry Cleaners

Madame Paulette New York Dry Cleaners

Earlier this year before my grandmother passed away, I fought tooth and nail with a local dry cleaner who ruined one of my garments. They managed to rectify the damage they have done however, some of it is still visible. In the end, I got compensated half of what I asked for. Although it wasn't the solution I wanted, it was better than nothing. A few friends told me I was lucky. Some dry cleaners won't shell out a single penny; the most they'll give you is a smile or a half-baked apology.

Anyway, I came across Madame Paulette's website earlier this morning. They are based in New York and specialize in cleaning high-end clothes. Remember Melania Knauss in that ginormous, 50-pound Christian Dior haute couture wedding gown from the Empress Sisi/Fall-Winter 2004 collection?

Well, she commissioned Madame Paulette to restore her wedding gown. Watch this video. This is how they clean haute couture.

Isn't it amazing how technologically-advanced dry cleaners are overseas? Madame Paulette had me on the blacklights! How I wish local dry cleaners are sophisticated like that.

Michael Jackson in Givenchy!!!

OMG. The gender bending ferocity of Michael Jackson never stops... a few weeks ago, you've seen him wore that swarovski-encrusted t-shirt from Balmain's fall/winter 2009 collection. Well, feast your eyes on this.

It's Wacko Jacko rockin' a look from Givenchy fall/winter 2007. Gemma Ward wore it on the runway a few years back.Amazing!!!!!

Tilda Swinton in Haider Ackermann Dress at Cannes Film Festival 2009

Tilda Swinton in Haider Ackermann

I'm sure y'all know my aversion to Hollywood celebrities doing that "GLAM, GLAM, GLAM" look. You know what I'm talking about -- typical strapless dress and long, wavy locks worthy of an In Style cover.

Well, let me show you how it's done. Behold the fiercest woman on the red carpet.

Cameron Diaz for Vogue USA Cover June 2009

Cameron Diaz for American Vogue

After the recent stunning cover featuring the models of the moment, American Vogue's gone back to the usual celebrity pool. Cameron Diaz is on the cover of their June 2009 issue.

I like it. There is something about the cover that screams "American chic". Maybe it's the blond in white combo? It's very American Vogue.

I have to admit though I'm not gonna run to the newsstands to buy this issue (unlike what I did to Michelle Obama's). Why buy when you can read it at the salon... for free?

Rick Ross' Fake Louis Vuitton Sunglasses

Rick Ross' Fake Louis Vuitton Sunglasses

How embarassing is this? Rapper Rick Ross is on the May 2009 cover of XXL magazine. He was photographed wearing what appears to be a pair of Louis Vuitton Chewy Bitton sunglasses.

According to Mediatakeout, the folks at Louis Vuitton fired XXL this letter:

Dear Editor:

We were dismayed to see the cover of the May 2009 issue of XXL Magazine, which features a photo of Rick Ross wearing a pair of sunglasses prominently featuring counterfeit Louis Vuitton trademarks. Because the photo has generated considerable confusion among your readers and Louis Vuitton customers among others, we feel it is important to clarify several points.

The first is that the sunglasses Mr. Ross is wearing were not made by Louis Vuitton, and in fact, are counterfeit. Louis Vuitton did not grant permission to Mr. Ross or to whoever did make the sunglasses to use our trademarks. The second is that no affiliation, sponsorship or association exists between Rick Ross or XXL and Louis Vuitton. The third is that counterfeiting is illegal.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to correct the confusion.

Sincerely,
Michael D. Pantalony, Esq.
Louis Vuitton Malletier

Yikes! Who in their right mind would wear a pair of counterfeit sunglasses on a bloody cover shoot? Rick, his stylist or XXL magazine has a lot of explaining to do.

Heidi Klum for Vogue Germany June 2009 Cover

Heidi Klum for Vogue Germany

Heidi Klum is on the cover of the June 2009 issue of German Vogue.



Stunning, no? I'm a big fan of black and white photography and it's been quite awhile since I last saw a women's fashion magazine use them as a cover.

I love Heidi Klum. There's something about her that is so enchanting.  Every time I see photos of her and Seal online, I always see them as a couple truly in love and they're always, always having fun. You can't say that about your typical celebrity couples.

Madonna in Louis Vuitton | 2009 Costume Institute Gala "Model as Muse" | The Met

Madonna in Louis Vuitton

Everyone's talking about Madonna who wore Louis Vuitton fall/winter 2009 the other night at the Met. When I showed my mother some photos, the first thing she said was "is she going through some psychological change in her life?" Just kidding. No, my mother didn't say that but Venus Xtravaganza did.

No, really, has Madonna lost her mind? Mid-life crisis much?



Well, I don't think so. IMO, Madonna's just having fun. I honestly thought she's a breath of fresh air.

Think about it. Would you rather see the same predictable flawless "glamorous glam glam glam GLAM" In Style celebrity identi-kit look-a-likes? Case in point: Renee Zellweger and Claire Daines. Yes they look good but how many times have you seen that sort of thing?

For an iconic pop star to go to one of New York City's (and the world's) most glamorous nights wearing a short skimpy dress, the most hardcore boots of the season AND a pair of faux bunny ears takes balls. Big, HUGE balls. It shows to prove that Madonna has a great sense of humor.

I have one last thing to say.

Jesus saves.

Christopher Lawrence and Miley Cyrus loves Chanel

Check out this video featuring Ex-TIME employee and now freelance journalist Rebecca Keegan as she interviews Christopher Lawrence. Chrisopher is Miley Cyrus' (aka Hannah Montana) costume designer.




"What else can I do? Writers get writers' block. I have nothing left."

I laughed so hard when I saw him talk about the candy cane red & white stripe fabric.

"There was something about this that appealed to me."



Yeah, Chanel Spring/Summer 2008!!! You even had it airbrushed by your "airbrush person" to match the stripes!

I know red and white stripes have been around forever but come on.

Just sayin'. That's all.
