Sex Sells....  



...shoes apparently. Here is Kanye's new ad for his Louis Vuitton sneakers featuring his naked girl, Amber Rose. Almost missed the shoes...

Here are a couple more that actually aim to feature the product:




And then here's another with Kanye doing what he does best - feature himself. I'm not mad though, he looks damn good and that jacket is H-O-T! Heeeyyyy Kanye *wink*

Kudos to the artistic nature of these photos.

UPDATE: Apparently, these ads were NOT for Louis Vuitton...makes sense.

Hot Jean Alert!!!  



Sometimes a pair of jeans come around that are just AMAZING and I am sooo feeling this bleached and painted pair worn by Ashley Tisdale, although I'm not feeling her overall look at all. A good stylist would've really helped her do these jeans some justice. I have yet to see these so I'm not sure what designer created them and I'm pretty positive she didn't craft these on her own.

Bridal Trends  



Now, I am in no way trying to make this a bridal site, but as many engaged women I know are currently shopping for bridal gowns, I thought I'd put in my 2 cents. Many of the new bridal gown trends feature fuller skirts, which are a great option for those more bottom-heavy women who want to be trendy yet feel they must choose from unforgiving and unflattering styles.

Pictured above: Amsale and Vera Wang...not really feeling all of those bows Vera...

Weekend in Denim  

This weekend gave us a variety of denim looks from the celebs:

Vanessa Simmons looked cute and casual rocking a slim cut rolled up jean reminiscent of the Boyfriend Jean while kicking it in Miami.


Brandy had a well um interesting look while dining at Katsuya in L.A.

This is a great jean for slender women and/or women who want to bring attention to their hips. If you have a tummy and/or larger hips that you want to minimize, don't go near these.

Rihanna is one of the first to break out her Bermuda shorts while on her way into the studio to start recording.


Keri Hilson was here doing a radio interview this weekend in Chicago...I actually saw the concert and she did pretty good. The label didn't allow her to have a stage set of her own, but she CAN sing. This pic has me wondering if she can dress though...


The winner???

IMAN! She is like the Eighth World Wonder! She is 53 years old and is still undeniably one of the hottest chicks out there AND is setting a good example for women everywhere: bootcuts are the universally flattering style for everybody type.

Young, Black, and Fabulous: RUN IT: Rihanna vs. Christina Milian  


One of my favorite blogs, theybf.com, challenged its readers to vote for who best rocked this denim and leather jacket...although, I don't think Christina was any competition for Rihanna.

And there go those Balmain shoes again. Better look this time around though...sorry Cassie.

New Denim Line Alert: Resin Denim  

Chris Gilbert, co founder of Paper Denim & Cloth, is launching a new denim line, Resin Denim, which will launch for limited distribution this fall. The line will be in the $150 price range, and from the images in their lookbook, the line is going to be HOT. A seemingly great fit AND great washes. I wasn't a big PDC fan, but I'm pretty sure I will be all over the Resins!
