Kate Middleton's Wedding Dress On Display.



In case you're in London this summer check out the wedding dress on display of Kate Middleton, oopsy and pardon me, it's now Catherine the Duchess of Cambridge.  We saw it on television and in magazines but now we can see it but probably still not touch it at Buckingham Palace. We love the glamour of weddings and fashionistas know it's true because everything is so gloriously detailed and perfect. Of course, this stunning dress which was painstakingly kept a secret for months, was designed by Sarah Burton for the House Of Alexander McQueen.  McQueen died during the wedding planning but when the dress was revealed, we were not disappointed. Anyone thinks this exhibition will come to the US?  Follow and connect with us on Facebook for more pics and fashion news.

Fashion for Spring/Summer 2011 with Amy Winehouse Collection from Fred Perry.


Fashion is larger than life with Amy Winehouse Spring/Summer 2011 Collection available at Fred Perry.  We love Amy's music and unique fashion style that goes with her larger than life personality.  The gingham dresses and playsuits or the sleeveless short shirt dress are so Amy we couldn't help but love it. Amy is gone but she left her legacy in music and in fashion. Get it while it lasts and I don't know if the collection is still available because this is a post from March 2011 I decided to re-post because of Amy's passing. RIP Amy!

Charlize Theron Is Wickedly Fashionable & Evil As The Queen.



If evil looks this good then give me some. Charlize Theron is ready to play the evil Queen in Universal Studio's feature film, "Snow White and the Huntsman."  Seems like Ms. Theron is getting all the attention so far with her evil glam look because Kristen Stewart is set to play Snow White, alongside the Queen and no one's raving yet about about The Snow.  Who else is loving Ms. Theron? Very, very wicked. Never has an evil Queen looked so good since Glen Close as Cruella Deville in "101 Dalmations." Follow and connect with us on Facebook for more pics and fashion news.

Allison Sweeney Joins CREST & ORAL-B To Announce Launch Of "Life Opens Up Project."



Fashionistas know that healthy, white and beautiful teeth is by far the most valuable wish you can have over any fashion collection if you had a choice. Well, maybe not for all but for most who love a fabulous smile and  clean breath. 


Your mouth is more than just teeth and gums, it's your most important feature when it comes to expressing yourself and engaging with the world.  To help celebrate how important a healthy mouth is to living life to the fullest, "The Biggest Loser" host and author of "The Mommy Diet," and "Days of our Lives" star Alison Sweeney is joining Crest® and Oral-B® to announce the launch of the "Life Opens Up Project," a program that encourages individuals to share their personal stories showcasing how their healthy mouths have played a pivotal role in shaping who they are today.

Sweeney, who knows the importance of a healthy, confident smile said, "I'm so thrilled to be teaming up with Crest and Oral-B on such an empowering program.  In my personal life, the health of my mouth plays an essential role not only in my on-screen profession, but also in how I interact with individuals as a wife, mother and friend.   Your mouth is usually the first thing people notice about you, and when you have a healthy mouth that you can be proud of, that confidence shines through to the world."

Now through September 15, 2011, interested participants can submit their healthy-mouth-empowered videos (up to two minutes in length) via LifeOpensUpProject.com. Sample videos, including one in which Alison shares her "Life Opens Up" moment, will be featured on the site, as well as Crest and Oral-B's Facebook pages.  Submissions will be available for viewing and real-time public voting at www.LifeOpensUpProject.com,www.facebook.com/Crestwww.facebook.com/OralB andwww.facebook.com/CrestWhitestrips.  Two lucky winners will each win a trip for two to New York City to appear on the "Rachael Ray Show" and up to $25,000 to help fulfill their healthy-mouth-empowered goal or dream.  Complete rules and regulations for the contest, along with criteria for video consideration are available at LifeOpensUpProject.com.

"Whether it's how a shy young man gathers the confidence to talk to the girl who will one day become his wife or how a woman who does local charity work gives a voice to those who aren't able to speak for themselves, every one of us has moments in which our healthy mouth plays a surprising role in how we open up to life, and how the world opens up to us in return," saysMegan Young, Brand Manager, Procter and Gamble. "Through the 'Life Opens Up Project,' we are encouraging Americans to share their inspiring stories with one another, showing how confidence in a healthy mouth can truly enhance your life."

Kanye West For New York Fashion Week S/S 2012?



Here's another reason to look forward to Mercedes Benze Fashion Week in NYC. The UK Telegraph is reporting today that Kanye West is getting ready to show at the upcoming New York Fashion Week in September.  Kanye does not look for press, the press looks for Kanye and love him or hate him, the man's got style and fashionistas are craving to see his fashion visions of things to come. I for one can't wait to see the looks he's dreamed up  because he is a art rebel and everything he touches, he leaves his stamp of creativity. Classic Kanye, avante garde Kanye, cunty Kanye, we love it all because he's a True Fashionista Now and you know you can't touch him. Go Kanye!!!!

The Angels and Divas: Spring 2011 Collection Is Bold & High Drama.



"My latest fashion collection was inspired by what I feel a “Go Green” planet should be all about.  So to create my collection, I used organic fabric in vivid colors while mixing exotic textures."
 ~ Eryka Becker

Check out some of the fabulous looks from designer Eryka Becker's 'Angels and Divas Spring 2011 collection', inspired by the natural wonder and colors of the earth.  Feathers continue to be a fashion inspiration even as it continued to flutter on the recent runways of the Paris couture shows as a trend for this coming A/W 2011-2012.  There is no denying the creativity and innovation of craftsmanship and texture for these looks and accessories.  I love the earrings and the haute feathered cocktail skirt, it's bold and high drama on the streets of NYC or anywhere you want to be.  We love you Ms. Becker, you are a True Fashionista Now.

Talk about a lady with a passion for fashion. Tilda Swinton's look and fashion aesthetics is just indescribable and I love it. I am so glad to see it arrive at a time when I felt that fashion was becoming so complacent with the styling and muses/models that we see over and over again. Thanks to Time Walker who shot her for the latest issue of W magazine. No more pretty, pretty, thanks Ms. Swinton for giving us exciting fashion visuals and the way we want to see and believe in style and creativity.
