Mila & Fire Vintage...

If you are tired of walking outside and seeing 50 people in the same shirt or dress or skirt as you, this is for you! My friend Kelcie and her friend Mila have opened an online vintage store which I am obsessed with. Trust me when I say it is AMAZING. They handpick some really great statement pieces at affordable prices.. Kelcie was one of my inspirations to try vintage shopping and thrifting. I did it alone for the first time yesterday ( read about it here) and got so excited.

Follow them on twitter and visit the store. They literally post new items everyday.....This store gets the #GLAMGIRLSTAMP . Check it out!

SOLANGE x FASHIZBLACK x POODLEPUSHER

I was admiring the work done by Poodle Pusher on Brandy and they continue to wow me. Sisters, Chichi & Ogo Offodile are racing to the top of my favorite stylist list. I was reading the new issue of French mag, Fashizblack and noticed that they styled Solange's much talked about spread. Here are some of the pictures, but head over to their site  READ THE MAGAZINE! They have an English translated version.

Picture of the Day...

I struggled to like anything on the VMA carpet besides the new white carpet. I LOVED that. Ciara was definitely my favorite in Givenchy followed by Lady Gaga. I'm not sold on Ciara's shoes but.....I think she looked gorg.

Say Hello: My favorite Fashion Editor!

I've always believed in looking the part.  Christine Centenera DEFINITELY does that as the editor for Harper's Bazaar Australia. I love her sense of style. I am definitely a fan and she might even beat Anna Dello Russo who was previously my favorite. I like Christine's style because it's effortless, she never really looks overdone  and she also isn't afraid to wear pieces more than once. I always thought she was a model whenever I saw her on The Sartorialist but now I know who she really is. So say hello to this fashionista from down under!

FABULOUS D.I.Y.

Melody Ehsani is a GENIUS shoe & jewelry designer. She custom made these shoes for her birthday. They are so sick and I can't get over the transformation. Sometimes I'm like a little child when it comes to accessories and clothes, I love the bling. If you don't know Melody Ehsani, PLEASE get familiar.....her jewelry is ALL over the place. Nicki Minaj's latest video, Diggy Simmons mixtape cover, Rihanna & Erykah Badu wear it a lot. Check her out :)

Melody is friends with Mariel Haenn( Stylist to Rihanna, Ciara and many more) and Melina Matsoukas ( video director of a million and one videos...Beyonce, Nicki Minaj, Lady Gaga, Lily Allen to name a few). She calls her and her friends the three M's. I love it....women's empowerment!

Christian Louboutin Ulona: Ndebele Influence

I spotted these Christian Louboutin Ulona Platform. I love them. Definitely a Spring shoe. Another reason I love them is because,  I definitely think Mr. Louboutin got his inspiration from Ndebele artwork & I am Ndebele  :) You can see the distinctive bright geometric artwork, and the gold adornments which are like the gold & copper neck and ankle wear of the Ndebele. Just a little something I thought I should share!

Half Moon Manicure

Here is something for you to try on your nails. I've gotten this manicure a few times. I first tried it a few months ago at home and it was hard for me to do....I don't have steady fingers lol. After that, I got it done professionally a few times, I prefer it with white nail polish and a black half moon. So basically the opposite of what is in the picture. I'm thinking about different colors to try it with too. I think it's a haute concept.
