My fav designer is getting it in with everyone. Mr. Lagerfeld has been teaming up with a slew of designers to make himself a brand that is separate from Chanel. I’m uber excite to see what this collection will look like.

Louie V has some good tricks this Fall. I think I’m leaning more and more his way. But I could never forsake Gucci and Chanel. Silly me for trying to be LOYAL to 1 designer.

Man, these are a concept but I hope these are a work in progress.

I did a previous post about Han-Cholo & Love Made’s remarkable ear pieces and yet again we have been graced with another piece called “The Cold Hearted Snake.”It is available in rose gold, gold, silver, and gunmetal/gold for $70, here.

….Or at least her stylist is. LOL

Dominic Jones leather gloves with gold nails attached.

These also come in red.

These are stupid hot but I’m dyingto know how these are suppose to fit around your nose.

Today was a sad day and I think today was the day of truth for so many people around the world that were in denial about the King of Pop’s death. As I watched Stevie Wonder sing “They Won’t Go When I Go,” I found myself stricken with grief.

The more I thought about how he was hurt, the many people close to him that he loved who endlessly hurt him and how he still allowed his heart to love and achieve the goal of spreading joy I find it amazing. Michael has been teased, ridiculed and called weird and different his whole life and it reminds me of so many people who are hurting, too different for society to accept the good in them until it is too late.

For the past 12 days, I’ve strove to understand the Michael that wasn’t an entertainer and without getting into much detail I would like to say that he and are parallel in so many ways and it hurts me to see good people treated so badly. I feel for the person Michael who was always hurt and trampled on. The Michael who allowed the bad of his childhood to consume him. The Michael who wanted nothing more but for the world to be a better place. The Michael who the media consistently tarnished and made into a freakish monster.

This song that Michael wrote for Stevie Wonder is a very personal one, as well as many others that people never pay attention too because they only know Michael the performer. God bless his soul, for the insensitivity of other people and their inconsideration of human life. It is so sad that it takes death for one to be appreciated especially when they’ve contributed more to others than we will ever contribute to anything in life.

The more I think about his ‘other’ music, Michael has been telling us his painful stories for decades and we never noticed, failing to listen.

This song will be on repeat for the rest of my life. The story of my life.

Celebrities such as Rihanna, Beyonce and the debonaire Victoria Beckam have all rocked the Balmain military/MJ inspired jacket and I think its fierce. At $14,000 they are completely sold out. When I woke up this morning I saw this jacket in red with black and gold sequence everywhere. Balmain should definitely create a MJ Special Edition version of this jacket and donate some of the money to his charities or something of that nature. Great to see that not only was his music able to inspire but also his fashion.
