"The Card Catalog Version2" by  Susan Domelsmith's Dirty Library Chains   is the kind of piece that is vital to any wardrobe.Over a dress or a tee and jeans it's a heathy dose of bling that will never really go out of style!

Hate to give Urban Outfitters props, but with that being said, it deserve with this slip dress, which I like to describe as a ruckus dress (or, if you prefer Beyonce's term, freakum dress). What exactly is a ruckus dress? It's one in which the sexy/flirty/feminine stars are so perfectly alligned that men who gaze upon it are basically reduced to staring and slobbering. So you walk into a room or down the street with this garment on and heads are gonna turn and comments are gonna be made. You are basically causing a ruckus wherever you go.

Not everyone has the stamina or self confidence to pull off wearing a ruckus dress, but those who do not only enjoy, but respect the power it brings.

Lanie Alabanza-Barcena's Hellz Bellz Holiday 08  Collection titled "Born Bad" has just launched.Here's what she had to say about her inspiration:

"Inspired by the infamous Vaudeville actress, and sexual liberator, Mae West, our Holiday collection represents for the "Born Bad" femme fatale. With West's racy quotes which sprang, tough-dame style from the side of her mouth, she's been firmly stamped as the personification of Hellz through her story of survival, persistence, independence and unshakable self-esteem. In her life which ended in 1980, at the age of 87, she became both an icon and pioneer for both men and women everywhere."
