Hot Mess Monday - Lauren Conrad

This week we have Lauren Conrad at her "LC Lauren Conrad" clothing launch party. Her outfit is plain, boring and ill-fitting, kind of like her...This offensive actress and sorry excuse for a "designer" decided to rock one of her pieces from her own collection. How sad? Assuming this mini dress is one of the better items, LC's line will be a failure - again. Soon she will be designing a collection for Value Village.

PS. Can you believe her book "LA Candy" is going to be turned into a movie?!

Happy Monday!!

Fabulous Friday - Rihanna & Kim Kardashian

Here is Rihanna stepping out in Paris, looking ultra stylish in harem pants, a shrunken blazer and lace top. I think she looks extremely fashion forward. I personally am not a fan of harem pants, but I think that certain people can pull the off, especially when paired with a pair of always fabulous Christian Louboutins.

Our second beauty is Kim Kardashian, exiting the Ritz Carlton in New York City. Some people tell me that the Kardashian's get too much shine on this blog, ugh, no names will be mentioned, but to their defense - and mine - they always looks fabulous. Kim, has an amazing stylist and wonderful make up artists so she will be on Fabulous Friday from time to time. Now, back to the original topic...here is Kim rocking a one should grey dress and immaculate make up. I also love her old Hollywood hair.

I can't express to you how happy I am that it is finally FRIDAY!

MAC Cosmetics - Dsquared2

Every season the fashion crowd is up and on the run, crazy for the fierce and sexy fun we've come to expect from designers Dan and Dean Caten, the Canadian twins who know how to pack a punch - and throw a party! With their haute hi-jinx and body-beautiful clothes for boys and girls, a collaboration with MAC simply could NOT be avoided! "DSquared2 and MAC are on the same trip!" says Dan. This collection brings us to the Ziegfield Follies by way of Grey Gardens, a bit disheveled, a little Girl Interrupted, both dramatically hip and dangerously sexy. It starts with a strong, sooty, blackest-ever wild-child eye...a new Greasepaint Stick also in blue and violet versions, and Pro Gloss to create it. Neutral and perfected skin will get more drama with highlighting and low lighting from Sculpt and Shape Powders and the 165 Tapered Cheek/Highlight Brush all the better to achieve it. And finally, the totally nude Pro Lip Erase does its stuff, followed by a light Lipstick and Lip Conditioner to put the lilt and lift back in.... But the cynosure of this season's scintillating collaboration is the daring, dramatic slightly demented DSquared2 eye.

Hot Mess Monday - Ashanti

Is it hot in here or is it just the hot mess I'm looking at? Ashanti is having an identity crisis. She apparently thinks she is Rihanna. Darling, get real. You look like crap. Rihanna wouldn't even look good in that.

Nice giant feather earring...no, I'm totally kidding...they are almost as hideous as your horrendous boots.

Honey, go home to Nelly before I throw up.

Happy Monday!

Fabulous Friday - Victoria Beckham

Darling, you have redeemed yourself. I can not express how much I love this dress. It is simply stunning. Proving that she is her own best model, Victoria Beckham rocked the Burberry Prorsum runway show at London Fashion Week in this stunning dress from her own collection.

I loved the exposed zipper at the back and the fact that she wore it with fabulous YSL patent pumps. This is immaculate.

Happy Friday!

Fall Beauty Trend: Jade Nails

I'm sure you spotted this trend on the runways and red carpets at New York Fashion week, as well as London Fashion week. This is definitely a big fall trend – jade nails. Let’s get it right – JADE nails, not forest green or neon green. It is all about minty jade shades. Where did this trend even begin, you ask? It all started on the Chanel catwalk. Peter Phillips, The Global Creative Director of Chanel Makeup created it for a one-off F/W ’09 show. So many beauty junkies and fashion fanatics loved Le Vernis Nail Color in Jade (shown above in pic) so much that it is now available for retail. Of course it may be next to impossible for you to snag your very own bottle of the limited edition said nail colour, you can opt for other brand such as OPI Matte Nail Polish in Gargantuan Green Grape or Illasmasqua Nail Vernish in Milf.
