I love fashion but I believe that there is some glitches in it's communication with us, normal folks. Don't want to be too deep or anything, but I will be reveiling my top ten thoughts as to what I do NOT like about some things. Each day, I will reveal a new one. Today, I am reveiling number 10:

10. I hate that some trends don't last long enough!

I bet you agree with me. As soon as I find a trend that I like, you know, the kind of like that makes you want to wear it everyday, no seriously ,not everyday, but a lot? I do know that fashion is ever changing, ever evolving, but God, as soon as we get into the groove of this fashion thang, they go and change it all over again. Do you remember when big, feathered bangs were in? I do and I'm not that old, but I use to wear them. Also, when the trends we like leave the fashion scene, they just go and bring it back in style a couple of years later. And I'm thinking, "wait a minute, I just brought all of that stuff to the thrift store or gave it to the Salvation Army, I should have kept it ALL!" Right, instead of getting rid of all your old, out dated items, just keep, because trust me, their going to be back in style in a couple of years. And if not, still keep them, you can wear them and call it 'VINTAGE'. You know, vintage is code for, 'old but new again'.


Check out this totally 80's look by a young Madonna who actually wore this in the 80's....




Now check this pic of Kate Moss, some girl and Paris Hilton, now don't they look like they were at the same party as 80's Madonna?



But their in this century!! Prove's my point, EXACTLY!! What's the point of getting rid of anything except for to help maybe those in need not because you can't maybe use them again. Till next time, check back in to Concrete Threads to view my number 9, on Countdown to things I hate about people and fashion!

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!

Check my SHOE WORK!!

June 23rd 2008 23:30
I LOVE SHOES!! I think I may be totally obsessed with shoes. I REPEAT, I LOVE SHOES!! I really don’t know how many pair I currently have, but trust me it’s a LOT(LOL)! But what young woman doesn’t like shoes. All sorts of shoes. Shoes give me that tingly feeling on the inside, you know, that ooooohhhhhh, aaaaaahhhh, feeling. Let me stop. Everyone has something. A food fetish, a banana fetish, well I (and many of you) have SHOE fetishes. If I don’t have enough money to buy that “me” outfit, I will settle investing a great pair of manolo’s, pump’s, boots or hills. Anyday…..

I recently saw Sex in the City, the movie with Sarah Jessica Parker and oh baby the Shoe!!!!!! See, that’s what I love about chick flicks, though I don’t like all. But at least chick flicks cater to us, women. A great flick with display great style and fashion, something most of us respect and draw from. The main type of shoes displayed in the movie is the Jimmy Choo shoe. Jimmy Choo started around 10 years ago in a small town in England. Bet he never guessed his company would be so international and famous. A very smart, let me repeat, a VERY smart woman by the name of Tamara Mellon, knew of Mr. Choo’s tremendous success in her native, England and proposed a business gesture for him. Thankfully, he accepted and that propelled the Jimmy Choo company that we all know of today, WHOOPEE.

I would have to say, right about now, Jimmy Choo has to be my favorite shoe designer. I know the price is a bit steep, sorry, very steep for us average folk, but if you can afford 1 or two pair, trust me, it’s a great investment and oh so comfortable.

If you’re wanting to find Jimmy Choo shoe’s at a reasonable price, check the online market, where you can just about find in and everything reasonably cheaper that original price. Try this site: Really Long Link They have great Jimmy Choo shoes at reasonable fees.

Happy Shopping!!!
