Michelle Obama mmm....Fashion ICON or Fashion MISS

April 3rd 2009 19:43
Michelle Obama---gotta love her! Being that she and her husband Barak Obama, are the first African American president America has seen. Her style and fashion supercedes most in politics, making her a role model and fashion diva, many has come to fashion after.
I'm not sure if she measure's up to all of the hype mentioned in fashion though. I do truely love her style, classic, colorful, taylored, etc, but does she truely have what it takes to become one of the most fashionable diva's in our modern history.




YOU BETCHA! Many of you might highly differ with me but you have to check her fashion record sweety Mostly, not everything, she wears hits the fashion currency mark exactly. (I would be lieing if I stating that I liked or have loved everything that she's wore) Nevertheless, we can't always get it right all of the time. Michelle Obama has truely inspired me personally as the rest of the world with her class and swagger.

I am a AA woman in American and I believe that she represents my culture well. Her husband Barak Obama has truely found someone worthy enough, fashion and style wise, to be called 'First Lady' of the United States of America. I do believe that we will be talking about her keen since of style, dress, clothing and fashion for many years to come. The pics below shows her beautiful ensemble worn to visit the Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth herself at Windsor Palace during the G-20 Summit. Michelle visited children, schools, bought alms and gifts, everything that dignitary in her spot light would do. Of couse she had mockers, in regards to her 'touching the queen'. You have to understand that we 'Americans' are pure 'down home folks' especially African Americans. We are outgoing and no one is a stranger that crosses our paths.




I would love to meet Michelle Obama, talk to her, possibly sip green tea and talk and share idea's on how to raise our children and be the best wives that we can be. Not to mention she is, in my opinion, a great bargain shopper(J.Crew, etc.) Now this woman could be buying the most exquisite of worldwide fashions, and the most expensive, but she and her husband chooses to support our designers and american made clothing. KUDDO's!!



London and Queen Elizabeth never knew what hit them when Air Force one landed on their patch of the world. Hopefully, Michele did not mess up too bad and Queen Elizabeth welcome's her back soon!

Posh doing it big with DVB Style

July 13th 2008 03:38
Everyone knows David Beckham. Wait a minute, everyone also knows his beautiful wife, Victoria Beckham. Victoria Beckham aka ‘Posh Spice’ of the use to be British group, the Spice Girls, totally ‘rocks’. She is a style and celebrity icon, not only in her native country Brittan, but also here the America’s. Victoria Beckham has always had a distinct style of her own. It started with her unique sense of fashion as ‘Posh Spice.’ Though in my opinion, her vocals were not much to sing about, her style has always been preceding fashion edginess I love her ‘has been’ and current style. That’s probably why she’s opted to bring her unique fashion sense to front and center. With her new line, DVB Clothing, Victoria Beckham is bringing that genuine British fashion sense to America. DVB Clothing is already a hit and the crave in England and it’s finally branching throughout the rest of the world, making it a hit worldwide.



I like the fact that DVB’s Clothing and Victoria Beckham are now one, really. She has the cutest sunglasses within its DVB line and the most ‘posh’ jeans, straight leg, wide leg, signature, you name it. DVB is reaching and providing a wide variety of fashion need’s with a wide spectrum of different designs and fashions. DVB and Victoria Beckham are rocking the fashion world so, that she has even designed a pair of specifically for model superstar, Naomi Campbell. It’s called DVB by Naomi, cool! She has a line of wonderful handbags, shoes, jeans and sunglasses. She’s devoted a whole collection to fab sense of denim fashion and design. Her line of jeans creates a huge glamorous look for the wearer, definitely!! Look like a star, literally!
For instance, it’s only carried at one of the most sought after boutique’s in the US, Kitson Couture in LA. Peep the upcoming Men’s line, due out this holiday season. Theres been a lot of rumor’s this year of Kitson Couture dropping DVB denim line due to poor sale’s and production.

The Gap, Inc. Get's New Thread's

July 12th 2008 03:42
The Gap, Inc., known for it's wide variety of preppy-hip-chic style clothe's, is not deviatiing far from their fashion script. Yesterday, July 10, The Gap, Inc., disclosed it's upcoming Holiday 08- Winter/Christmas clothing. Now, Banana Republic and Old Navy are also part of the Gap's major family. Even though, each store's style differ, they're still fabulous and they've unleashed a glimpse of what we have to look for from all three this Holiday season. See this from Banana Republic....



Banana Republic's, the top-notch line of the Gap, implementing a whole lot of glamour this holiday, with satin's, sparkle, glitz, bling and other shiny things. Mind you, this is all on their clothing. Cool. They'll have bright colors, traditional class, where holiday socializing and partying is concerned. If you're going to a lot of office events or even just fam events, you can DEFINATELY go this way!! Check out this from The Gap...



I see the Gap pretty much kept to their distinctive style. Preppy All-Star's, something my cousin whose in college would definately wear this fall. Plaid's, blazer coats, knit scarf's the whole shabang. I love it though, it give's a new chicness to their already fabulous and famous line. They're transforming, like most companies this 08/09 season. Face, in fashion and design, you definately have to keep up with fast moving, ever-evolving trends. Now check out this from one of my personal favorite's, Old Navy, yeah baby!!



For sure, Old Navy is sticking to it's trademark fav's, with flannel pajama's, sleepwear and scarf's. I love traditional Old Navy, don't you. I really love their price's above all. You can look like a basic supermodel or a somewhat, runway supermodel chick with Old Navy at really low price's. But, see this coat above from Old Navy, love it and a must have this winter. Quarter length, off-white coat, with multi-colored knit scarf, Old Navy at it's finest, just with a litter more, CHIC. Love it! Can't wait til Winter....

Have I found my one true pair of Jeans?

July 8th 2008 04:06
I am a young, bootylicious diva, who love's fashion, but in previous years, I've had the hardest time finding jeans that fit my perky look. Jeans were previously made for those of you out there, who are, you know, not bootylicious. I would consistently run across the problem of my jeans possibly fitting in the hips and legs, but gaping tremendously in the waist. I would often have to double loop my belt buckle to make it fit and look ok. But my friends, thank God for fashion geniouses and trailblazers. Many designers are creating fashion, specifically jeans, just for people like me. I guess it did help a little that Beyonce Knowles and her bootylicious video helped put us bootylicious women on the map. Mind you, Tina Knowles, Beyonce's mom and owner of clothing line, House of Dereon, claims that their signature jean is the best pair of jeans for us bootylicious chick and that they've designed it for us specifically in mind, even the gapped waist con.

I really don't know, because everyone has different body builds, shapes and figures. I've bought a pair of their jeans and I do truely believe that they def get an 'E' for effort. Ms. Tina Knowles did a great job with fixing our little jean problemo. Beyonce often wears these jeans from House of Dereon, face it, she is co-owner with her mom and spokesperson. Great choice I might add! Everyone love's Beyonce, her music, her style, her fashion and her personality. She's a bootylicious girl like myself and I thought, hay, they look pretty great on her, let me try a pair. They're also pretty reasonable,considering they are top notch fashion, including couture. They typically go for less than $300.00 but I might add it's not hard to find a pair under a $100.00, for all of you budgeteer's like myself out there

My Checklist:Summer Do's and Don'ts

June 28th 2008 04:35
I've been asked a lot for opinion on what to wear and what not to wear this summer. We all wan't to be in fashion and in line with current Summer 08 trends, but we can do without the fashion mishaps or miscommunications. The definition of fashion miscommunication is wearing an ensemble or piece of fashion because you might have seen someone else wear it or 'do it' that way. PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS PEOPLE!!!! So I've brainstormed my own personal list of Summer fashion do's and don'ts.

Do's:

Want to be Rufflicious?

June 20th 2008 16:15
Want to be Rufflicious!

I remember as a little girl, growing up in the 80’s, my mom would put these little light colored dresses on me all the time, and all seemed to have large, small or medium ruffles…uh….I thought ‘THIS HAS TO BE THE MOST HIDIOUS THING EVER, I CAN’T WAIT UNTIL I’M ALL GROWN UP, SO I DON’T WEAR THIS STUFF

The Maxi Dress

June 19th 2008 03:47
I don't really know what all of you out there think about this style of summer dress, but I LOVE IT!!!!

Remember, Fergie wore a canary yellow maxi or Grecian style dress to this year's Grammy Awards. Kristen Bell, Halle Berry and many more have sported this upscale trend
