CFDA honors Iman as "Fashion Icon"

Last night at the Council of Fashion Designers of America awards gala, model Iman received the Fashion Icon award which honors her as having "a signature style that has had a profound influence on fashion."
Now, I thought Iman was a random choice because when you think of fashion icons, she's not the first name to come to mind. But after looking at some of her previous looks, why not Iman? She's beautiful, classy, modern, and sophisticated. Not to mention, she represents the modern day woman; a business woman, wife, and mother. The only difference is Iman does it with style and grace, which not to many women can do. O and let's not forgot that she has been part of the many phases of fashion, was one hell of a model, and a designer fave.
So kudos to Iman. She deserves it!

She looks gorgeous!

Aaaaah...Spring is in the air and summer is on the horizon which means nice weather, spring/summer clothes, and BATHING SUITS!!! I'm sure you've already noticed the plethora of bathing suits in your favorite stores and/or online boutiques but before you go bathing suit bonkers over the colors and different styles, make sure you know what bathing suit is right for your body type.
FYI..Victoria Secret has a great selection of bathing suits at affordable price points. I bought a fierce two piece for 30 bucks.

This past weekend was the Kentucky Derby in Louisville which meant lots of hats and Kentucky Derby fashion.
Ashlee Simpson and hubby Pete Wentz came dressed in vintage Kentucky Derby outfits.
I think they look cute. Fashion faux pas or fashion statement?

So, for all purchases made on LV's US website on Earth Day, LV will donate 10% of its sales to the Global Green USA, which will help the foundation's Green Schools initiative in different cities.It's always nice to see fashion brands and designers give back, especially to our environment. Every little bit helps. So if you wanna do a little bit of shopping on Earth Day, stop by the LV website and if you're feeling guilty after your purchase, at least you'll know that a portion of it is helping our environment.

Leona Lewis and the Chic Circus?

Fashion Faux Pas or Fashion Statement
What exactly is going on here? Leona looks like she's part of the chic circus. For one, what is up with the lace eye fashion? I'm all for edge but this is not cutting it for me. Secondly, does she really have on a clown collar(I don't know what they're actually called but you get my drift)? I would expect Gaga to wear that not Leona. Lastly, the pants. Where to begin? First, they're ill-fitting. Next, what's going on with the crotch area? Is that suppose to be the design or just wrinkles? Either way, its unflattering. Overall, the pants look cheap and in the words of Tim Gunn like "student work."
However, there are some things I do like. For one, black is always fabulous and chic. You can never go wrong with it. So kudos to the color. Secondly, I like the sequin bustier, shoes, and the red lipstick. If she would've paired the aforementioned with a blazer, better fitting pants, and maybe a funky looking clutch to give it some bite, she would've looked fierce.
Leona, you need to have a serious talk with your stylist because this is a fashion faux pas.
What do you guys think? Fashion faux pas or fashion statement?

Fashion Exhibition..Nic*Fish and Jypsea
Posted by

Hey Fashionistas,
For those who celebrated Easter Sunday, I hope it was enjoyable!
Two weekends ago, I had the chance to attend a fashion exhibition of Nic*Fish and Jypsea at the Solo House Project in Newark, NJ and had a great time! Just to give you a little background info.....
Nic*Fish is a contemporary womenswear label designed by stylist/designer, Nicole Fisher. Created in 2000, Nic*Fish collections are composed of versatile, convertible, and trendsetting pieces, in jersey fabric.
Jypsea is a funky, eco-friendly, handcrafted leather-goods line created by designer Terina McKinney. McKinney's line is inspired by individuality and the beauty of nature but the real beauty of Jypsea is that the accessories are made with exotic skins, leathers, and other quality recycled materials, making them one-of-a-kind pieces or limited editions, so everybody isn't walking around mirroring each other. Recently, Jypsea was shown during NY Fashion Week.
Both labels are uber chic and made for confident and unique fashionistas everywhere.
The venue, Solo House Project, was phenomenal! The colorful tribal art accentuated both labels due to its authenticity.
Nic*Fish Fashions
The fingerless gloves are by Jypsea. Aren't they hot?
This is the back of the black jacket she had on. This is so fierce. She was working it!!
Jypsea
These pictures are of inside the Jypsea Boutique.
Jypsea lavender handbag
Other Jypsea clutches and turquoise fingerless gloves
Needless to say, I am a fan of both! I even purchased this little number from Nic*Fish.
I bet you're wondering...It's a gold jumper. And this is how you get the top result.
You put it on as a halter. It ties at the neck and back.
Now, the bottom half that was lying on the floor in the first picture goes in between the legs and around the back, like so.
Lastly, wrap the ends of the garment around you to tie. You can leave it tied in the back or bring it to the front like I did, I like it better this way lol and voila!
To add a little edge and pop, I added black feather earrings, red lipstick, and these 5 and 1/4 platforms.
Both designers were extremely friendly and can't wait to see more from them. For more information. Check out www.nicfish.com and www.jypsea.com.

O look what I'm wearing
If you're residing in the NY metro area, then you're probably enjoying the beautiful weather we've been having for the past two days. I know I am.
I really needed to get my hair done. Before yesterday, I was wearing a hat for the past couple of days and since the weather is treating us northerners so well, I decided no more hats. So today I went to Simply Chic Hair Studio to get beautified.....
