Lil Mama & Souljah Boy..... Yes They Did and why not!!!

Common Sense, Chicks with Kicks

For as much as the media likes to make fun of people in the spotlight..they seem to lack sense of Humour!!

At the BET awards Last week Lil MaMa showed up wearing an outfit that really should just be defined as cute..of course she ended up on a worst dressed list..

Nonetheless I'm from the school that believes that entertainers are not necessarily supposed to look like the average Janeor joe on the street..Did not Michael Jackson,Madonna ,Cindy Lauper,Janet jackson,to name a few single themselves out because  they rocked outfits like no one else...

check out Souljah boy's outfit after the jump..

Let them Have fun!!!

Laperla's Grigio Really??

Common Sense, Fashion

Grigio Perla, La perla's line of Undies and swimwear  for men,Is again to me the willingness of labels to extend their brand in a direction that is not always  a garanty for success..I dunno how long ago it launched but...I wonder how their sales are doing ...As I said yesterday there is always this image of a brand that sticks in our minds... I love La Perla But the label will forever in my my mind be associated with women....

Check after the jump for a few labels that I think do Succeeed at Selling High end Undies to men from a women's point of view....

I don't know about you But i've always wondered....

Fashion, Common Sense

I don't know about you ..but on trips to south Beach I often see women wearing these  "creations" whose origin I could never Identify, It's like how little can it be but still have something on...And then I always wondered how pricey those Little numbers were...Turns out they are Pretty Inexpensive..This little number the Anarchid Is sold out but would only set you back about 27 bucks...Ohh you don't wanna see what the back looks like...

If you ever want to  take a walk on the bare-side of fashion check out more "creations" after the jump The Best Seller of Great Glam..If you want Plexi- Platforms to match you're on you're own there....

Street Style This is What It is!!!

Design, Fashion, Common Sense

*Tina,30

If you are one of these people who once believed that a New Yorker is the Uber Trendsetter you are sooooo Wrong!!

Jeremias,13 and his Sister Jemina ,15

The population of what they call Nordic Countries Iceland ,Norway and Finland,Denmark is waaay ahead of the game ..while we are awed by The Sartorialist,who,I agree has a great eye..Hel-Looks is showing us that we can learn a thing or two... style -wise... scandics(is that even a word?) really go outside the box!

For example Swedish men who I went gaga over  when I was I Stockholm are recognized as some of the most fashion forward men on the planet!

While Most out there are looking to what XYZ mag says is the new" it "Item for what season..Jeremias at 13  is rocking a Fedora that grown men  Stateside are scared to rock...

Long Gone are the days when Williamsburg and the east Village were populated by trendsetters..Where did the edge go???

Even Fashion Students,Waliking By F.I.T recently all I saw was an endless succession of low rise  shorts, sweats,trapeze dresses,leggings,very few  individuals with Flava...

check after the jump for more Flyness whether it's you or not admit that they go there..and HighSnobette Loves it!!!

My Bacon Tee is Better than yours!!!

Common Sense, Art, Design, Fashion

 

 

Oftentimes In the US it seems we go all around the world adressing needs while the ones we have next door are neglected...

"BETTER BACON apparel features one-of-a-kind designs by kids and young adults with developmental disabilities and all t-shirts have a truly remarkable story. Each item of clothing has a “Hang-Tag” featuring a Polaroid of the artist, a personal statement describing themselves and their creative outlets, and what they hope the consumer gets from the entire experience. The amazingly soft fits are created by these talented artists and reflect the excitement and sense of fun inherent to the Better Bacon name.  And even better… all artists gets paid for every single sale, regardless of company profits. Descriptions of all t-shirts below. They are actually quotes from the artists and trust me, WORTH READING!"

 The quote below is the story behing this  white tee..

Daniel’s Rules by Daniel- I did not write these words for personal benefit, but so everyone with a disability could get treated equally. By this I mean that we should have the same sense of belonging as everyone else. They should be loved, respected, and their concerns- as well as their opinions- should be taken seriously. They should be given the opportunity to succeed. The rules are direct instructions on how to help people with different challenges, and they are also written to empower those who are not able to speak up for themselves. Also, if one of the problems of disabilities that I have written about were to happen to them, or to their loved ones, they will know what to do and what to say. I wrote those “Rules of How to Talk to a Blind Person” because I got tired of how people were treating us. I just want people to know that we all have external as well as internal disabilities. However, we may not realize it because we are focusing on other things that are not important”

Loving Day a holiday..Why NOT !!!

Common Sense

For as much as we talk about Material things I think it sometimes necessary to pause and really say what  I think about what goes on in this world..One of the things close to my heart has been Loving day, a day that really should be celebrated...

 The Not for profit organisation is based on "Loving v. Virginia (1967):This decision made it illegal to restrict interracial couples in the United States."Cause  Love really has no color..to think that at one time you could have  gone to jail for having a cutie that's not the same shade as you....

 For more info check out www.Lovingday.org

Smeilinener The Hottest Summer pants!!!

Common Sense, Fashion

No matter how unflattering they say white pants are ..I don't agree I found that  with the right fit and proportions White pantscan  work.. these pants would be amazing for a night out... or daytime cuteness... all you really need is a tank..

The endless succession of little A-line dresses with heels I've been seeing in NYC  just bores me...I took this picture waiting to get into a club a couple a weeeks ago..B-O-R-I-N-G  and they all have black footwear on..where is the Individuality???

Smeilinener, a Colorful Label based in Berlin Has a great assortment of great colorful clothes that make  an  black and gray wearer like me want to embrace prints...Take a chance think outside the Box!!!

Martine Mini Dress @ Patricia Field's

Common Sense, Fashion, Stores

So Yes I did see Sex and the City and I have to say that Patricia Field has done it again!! The looks were Hot!

Nevertheless for as much as SJP gets press for her charming role she does have the sasyness to pull off Ms. Fields creations .The clothes were cool but it's really the way they are put together that makes it so special....Honestly you can buy all the pieces but you have to have to spunk to pull it off and make it look natural...

I really would like to see more press and interviews of Patricia Field I dunno if she's reluctant to be in the glitz or if the mainstrean press thinks she's just not mainstream... Altough you cannot Get More Mainstream....,I mean the woman has Re-adapted trends!! How many out there who used to think gold necklaces with their names on it belonged to brooklyn gals or uptown chicas...ran to get their little name plate necklaces  when Carrie rocked it....

Now It's all about the Studded Belt Rockers/punks & cool kids have been rockin' for ages...

Anyway check out this  cute mini in her online store
