Rings and Things


I think I've watched "Beyonce's: I Am Tour" like 8 times already. The Thierry Mugler costumes were sick! Rhinestones and jeweled out. Reminded me of the Bjiules diamond-and-18k-gold nail rings she wore last year in the "Sweet Dream" video. She actually wore the complete $36K set. Stacks must be on deck for these little things...Ummmmm Santa???

The designer, Jules Kim, has been making some hot ish for a while. It's definitely edgy and different.

Quick Rave: Wet n' Wild Color Icon Shadow Single in Brulee'

Mac Vanilla vs. WnW Brulee
Hello readers! Just a quick post today to share my love of this eyeshadow single! This has quickly become one of my most used shades in my eyeshadow collection. The best part, I got it for $.50 during a 50% off Wet n' Wild (WnW) sale at Walgreens! But, even for $1, it is a steal!

My thoughts on WnW Brulee' Color Icon Shadow Single:

This is my perfect

John Galliano ChristmasTree 2010

Anche quest'anno il famoso Creative Director della nota casa di Moda francese Dior, John Galliano, ha realizzato un esclusivo e fantastico albero di natale per uno degli Hotel più noti della capitale londinese: The Claridge's Hotel.
Scrivo "anche quest'anno" perchè l'esclusiva dell'albero di Natale firmato Galliano con il Claridge's Hotel nacque un anno fa.
Il tema dell'albero di Natale 2009 fu l'Asia e la sua atmosfera:

Even for this year the famous Dior Creative Director, John Galliano, has created an exclusive and amazing Christmas Tree to one of the most famous and luxury Hotel of London city: The Claridge's Hotel.
I wrote "even for this year" just because this exclusive collaboration between Claridge's Hotel and Galliano started one year ago.
The idea for the Christmas Tree 2009 was Asia and its Atmosphere:


Quest'anno Galliano si è ispirato ad un albero "subacqueo", totalmente immerso nella natura sottomarina, questo è stato il progetto fatto dallo stilista:

This year Galliano's inspiration was an "underwater" Christmas tree, this is the project paints by the Designer:
Come potrete vedere ,dal progetto,  sono presenti moltissimi elementi marini come il cavaluccio marino, le meduse e tutta la flora che è caratteristica dei fondali marini.
Ed eccovi le foto dell'albero di John Galliano per il Natale 2010:

As you can perfectly see from the over project picture,  there are lots of marine elements like sparkling silver leaves, pink coral, sea horses, fish, anemones, starfish and jelly fish.
Here we go, these are the fantastic pictures of John Galliano 2010 Chistmas Tree:


Personalmente trovo questo albero veramente bello, l'idea di cambiamento ed innovazione del solito e scontatissimo albero di Natale che vediamo in qualsiasi negozio e qualsiasi Hall di albergo, i colori ed il tema mi piacciono molto e lo trovo anche molto fine ed elegante.
L'albero sarà è esposto nella hall del Claridge's Hotel a Londra dal 25 Novembre 2010 fino al 5 Gennaio 2011. Quindi se vi trovate a Londra non potete perdervelo.

In my opinion this Christmas tree is simply gorgeous, it's finally something new, fresh and different from all the others. The Ocean idea is fantastic, also the colors and it looks very smart an d fashionable. I really love it.
The tree was unveiled in the lobby of the hotel on 25th November, 2010 and will be on display until 5th January, 2011. So if you are in London...DON'T MISS IT!!!

Wet n' Wild Holiday Palettes: "Night Elf" Review



Happy Monday my dear readers! Hope you all had a great weekend!

This is the first of a series of reviews that I am going to do over the next few days on the Limited Edition Wet n' Wild (WnW) Color Icon holiday palette gift sets.

Let me tell you, all of these palettes are fantastic! And, such a great value (LOL-you readers know I love a good bargain). So, I am very excited to be doing these

Look for Less: Kourtney Kardashian in Wolford Leopard Tights

The Kardashians were on The Today Show this AM (video below), and Kourtney wore the Wolford leopard tights that I blogged about a few weeks ago.
She paired the tights with Prada Leopard Platform pumps...hmmmmm......
While I prefer the look of the Wolford thights, ASOS has a similar bold pattern for a lot cheaper.
ASOS, $13.90
It would be remiss to skip Khloe's outfit since she carrying a bright purple Hermes bag. Guess she reps those Lakers all day...I ain't mad at cha! Oh, and she also has on the Prada Leopard Platform pumps...


Product Review: MoroccanOil

I was first introduced to MoroccanOil Oil Treatment a few years ago by my hair stylist. I love the sweet smell, but what it does for frizz and shine is amazing! This product has a cult following. From Jennifer Lopez, Katy Perry, Rosario Dawson, Selma Hayek, Iman, Janet Jackson, Renee Zellweger....list goes on and on. Which is great, because all of these women have different hair textures and are able to use the same product.

This product contain Argan oil, an ingredient derived from Morocco, that has several benefits:
  • Gives Brilliant Shine
  • Moisturizes & Conditions Naturally
  • Protects & Moisturizes for Thermal Styling
  • Absorbs Quickly, Without Greasiness
  • Controls Frizziness
  • Protects Hair From Elements

While MoroccanOil is an oil treatment, it will not make your hair oily.  It leaves your hair with a silky finish, not a greasy thick coating. I've used several other drug store brands, and while they provided shine, they left my hair feeling weighed down, greasy, and they contained alcohol. I live by this stuff, and highly recommend it!
See the shine!!!! Haven't had a rinse color in over a year.

I am usually looking for shampoos/conditioners/or treatment products that provide moisture,

Black Friday

I did Black Friday once in 2005, and I still can't walk into Walmart the same. I just remember the doors opening, people running, and my life flashing before my eyes! So I skip out on the madness and focus on fashion from my house instead (not that it's any safer). Vogue Italia always has amazing photography of women of color. Here are a few of my favorites...



P.S. Vogue Italia has 2 awesome websites- Vogue Black which provides insight into the beauty of color, and Vogue Curvy, which provides a glimpse into normal and plus-size beauty.

Sisley F/W 2010

Sisley è uno dei più influenti marchi della catena Benetton. Amo questo marchio, fin da quando ero piccolo ho sempre vestito Sisley ed ho sempre trovato un ottimo mix tra moda e qualità. I prezzi li trovo molto buoni ed il materiale usato è ottimo.  Il marchio è sempre attento alla moda ed è uno dei più sensibili ai cambiamenti della stessa. Ogni stagione riesce sempre a sorprendermi e  a creare qualcosa di molto innovativo, personalizzato e con fantasie che raramente si trovano in altre catene.
Per la collezione Fall/Winter 2010 l'abbigliamento maschile ha molto capi stupendi e lo stesso per le donne, quindi diamo un'occhiata al Lookbook della Sisley per la stagione invernale :

Sisley is one of the most influent brand of Benetton's Gruop. This is my favourite brand ever, i really love it. Since i was child i always wore it just because, in my opinion, there is a super cool mix between Fashion and Quality and these are two important aspects. Prices are good, not too much expensive and not too cheap and excellent materials. Every single season, they surprise me with new shapes, colours and new patterns that is really difficult to find in another chain shops. The brand is always in touch with Fashion and it is one of the most sensitve brand about fashion changes.
For the Fall/Winter collection 2010 the menswear is full of very good and stylish items and the same for the women, so it's time to take a look at the Lookbook for Sisley Winter Collection 2010:

MENSWEAR:

So Stylsh

Nice Scarf and Jeans

Really easy-to-wear

Pure Black

Casual
WOMENSWEAR:
