rumor on the streets is, kanye is coming out with another book in October 2009. LOVES IT!!! its going to be $50 worth of his flyness. Its a book chronicling his life on the glow and the dark tour, including his concerts, shopping, and partying. ALL elements of kanye west. Oh, the dream! damn, wait until i meet him. besides love at first site, we are just going to bond and click. i think he gets me. okay, im back... im sorry. you know how i feel about that man. its pure love and respect. ( MONEY, POWER, RESPECT = the key to life. another 90s goodie. Queen Pen, what up! HA. ) you already know im in there, there's no need to even ask. Ill keep you updated as it comes up, bc trust, i will be his own personal street team, that he doesn't even know about it.
i said it before, and im saying it again. i NEED to see NOTORIOUS. yea, i know, its already in theaters, so whats the hold up.... ummmm... yeaaaa.... no one wants to take me. I thought it wouldve been a fun date, too bad, im a loser and no one wants to take me out. GRRRR! haha. yea, whatever, ill be the loser in the movie theater by herself this sunday. yup, thats me. just me and my chicken strips and curly fries. yea, i dont play that popcorn mess, i can EAT. thats probably why no dude wants to take me to the movies, broke suckers. ha, jk... or am i?! so, yea, i DEFINITELY need to check Notorious out, sooner rather than later.
another must see, thats im freaking out about, especially since im totally obssessed with the soundtrack, is SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE! what in the heck is wrong with me? i know its ghetto, but my friend had the movie on bootleg while he was in the hospital but, we chose to watch Traitor instead. I put him on to that movie, LOVE IT! but, i knew i shouldve just watched Slumdog Millionaire and let him watch my DVD in his own free time. WHAT WAS I THINKING? everyone that has seen this movie, gives it great reviews. I have even heard its on the level of CITY OF GOD! OhMGee. that is MY MOVIE, have it on DVD and everything. i could literally watch it everyday, and have done so for months. Thats bc i got put on to that movie so late in the game. My first time seeing it was... 2 years ago? yea i know, dont judge me. I am a movie freak. i dont know how that one slipped by me. but, its okay people. im on it now!
okay, im going to stop playing and go on sunday and see everything i need to bc i can not wait. and while, im at it, i might as well, catch MILK, too. i was never really interested in this but, ive been hearing good things. and the worst that could happen is, i leave bc i PROBABLY wont pay for each one. ill strategically figure out the times, and just walk right into them. yea, i know its so bad, but come on, weve all done it. dont lie.
i dont mind taking to back to my childhood days, when sundays were poppin for the movies. dont you remember waking up everyday sunday and turning on the tv and watching movies after movies? oh come on. i remember watching crooklyn and corrina, corrina back to back one sunday. i was in heaven. I LOVE CROOKLYN.... "oh, where is my baby, where could she be? QUEEEEENIIIEEEE!!" hahahaha. so friggin funny.
im always on the lookout for interesting and intriguing art, and you betcha i found something tonight (in additional to a new site i heart, theimagist.com). i came across this kaleidoscope architectural piece by Kazuhiko Kawahara.hotness, right?
whats crazy about this is, technically it all makes sense, but its just vertually and realistically impossible. but by looking at, you want it to be so badddd. i would love to be that triangle right in the middle, surrounding by all of the city, in its different elements, ready to offer me the world. oh man, did i just get allpoetic justice on you, right after tupac realized he fell in love? maybe just a dab. fighting the feeling of visual pleasure, defined by great, stimulating photography isnt easy. what can i say? im weak.
there is something about the 90s, that i just cant get enough of. yea, i was born in the 80s, but i GREW up in the 90s, and everything about it makes my heart warm. the slightest thing could trigger a memory for me from the 90s, and ill bug out. so, when i was in miami, i went to this party called Purdy Lounge, and they had something called "Chocolate Sundays"... straight 90s music and whats crazier, is we were playing Connect Four at the spot. You know i was loving, in HEAVEN! they played so many old school jams, and of course this song came on. So, D! had to post it for everyone else to get a spark of great memories going...
"She a bad girl, a real shopaholic.She buying everything up man I can’t call it. And she a walking store, I’m talking bout her clothes. I just pause I’m in awe she’s a fashion show. Free Louis bags and free Gucci. Got a wardrobe like she’s staring in a movie. And she ain’t even famous but she got her own groupies... She got her own groupies... She got her own groupies!!! "
Obama has made it public that he loves his marvel comics, Spiderman was no exception. so what did they do? in just of our soon-to-be-president, yesterday they released the new issue with Mr. Barack Obama in it!! A villan is trying to destroy Obama's inauguration, and of course Spidey saves the day! what kind of hot shit is that? Mr. Soon-to-be in Spiderman? that's LOVE!
heres a preview of Lauren 'LC' Conrad's Resort 2009 line. THANK GOD it has potential. i was so sick of her jersey dress and oh-too-simple tank tops. i mean, damn, i know youre up in the hills, with the high altitudes and all, but thank goodness you came down for some real air. girl, you know i love you, although you HAVE been annoying me lately, but this resort line has great amounts of potential. i really diggy the bathing suit in the middle, with the ethnic vintage print. ill take that in a size small & ill rock with a skirt also. yea, bag 'em!
okay, LC... at first you dont succeed, try, try again!
Everyone knows how Target does their "Go International" concept, where well known designers make an exclusive label for Target, available for a limited time only... right?! well, if not, hop on it. while i was on FabSugar doing what i do, i came across an article stating that Private Label 5 will be launching their line in February! CAN NOT WAIT! most of the stuff is really dime. Like, i can definitely see me rocking this stuff for the spring, but, some of the stuff is transitional too. Meaning, i can wear it now. Because sometimes i just can not resist wearing my new clothes. I mean, either its hanging in my closet staring at me for that perfect premiere, orrrrrrrrr im trying it on every other day. My inner 5 year old comes out at times, when it comes to clothes ;)
then : dress or belted tunic with jean cut offs. now : with cardi leggings and ankle booties.
then : just like this with wedge sandals and bangles galore.
now : black opaque tights with colored shoe and black leather.
then and now : AS IS with a little leather ;)
then : with a high waisted mini and gladiators.
now : with leggings and pumps & of course a dash of leather.
THE LAST THREE PIECES, im not sure how i feel about them... for me. i think they are cute, but i just dont know if i would rock them. but, we have to wait til February bc they might look fab in person, and then ill have to get them all. you know how that goes.
then : over a floral sun dress belted with metallic flats.
now : over a long vneck tee, jeans and flat saddle boots.
then : just the dress and a pewter heel.
now : LONG cardi, tights, and brown ankle boots... or just wait til then.

another collabo gone so right!...so far. matthew williamson will so be shooting his campaign for his H&M line, launching in May of 2009. He is shooting the print ads in Mexico and the tv ads in Brazil. damn, can i come?! He wouldnt say if he was going to be in the ads but, all I need a preview of what the line is going to look like and im good. AND, my friend, that is what I have, leaked from H&M themselves. thank you H&M!
who else cant wait for MAY? i really just cant wait for spring, i dont think ive been over winter so quick, as i have been this year. i dont know what it is, but im just NOT digging this weather right now. i usually do, especially because its not just 22 degrees for no reason, its actually been snowing. but, im over it. its TOO cold and its ONLY JANUARY. oh, MAY!
Many of my friends know that i am completely in awe of one particular fashion model, CHANEL IMAN! She can do no wrong. I think shes bringing back the name, supermodel. Remember when Tyra wasn't so narcissistic, when only the UK knew Naomi was crazy, when Cindy was still in her Calvin's, and actresses werent the face of everything? well, CHANEL IMAN is bringing it back.
Chanel is a Ford model with a African American and Korean decent. Chanel walked down the runway for the first time in the Fall/Winter 2006 season for high-end brands like DKNY. And thats not where she has stopped, she has walked for Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs, Hermes, Stella McCartney, DVF, and Oscar de la Renta... JUST TO NAME A FEW! AND on top of that Phillip Lim has named her his muse. Damn, can i be Phillip Lims' muse? Gladly!
Chanel has been named the "it" model, with her super long legs, thin frame, and being as young as them come! Chanel is on the way to the top! <3>
...check her out...
bc SHE's FLY!

as ive been talking about, im going to florida in like 2 weeks. so, im trying find cute, weather appropriate outfits. it IS the perfect time to do so because a lot of the resort stuff is out already but, i dont have resort money right now. (no need to say that word again. ya know the one; starts with a 'reces', ends with 'sion')
so, im the budget friendly queen. i can always find cute stuff, for the price of damn near nothing. and this was no different. i went to bloomies, to see what the deal was over there with their sale racks (gag, just thinking about it). they always have some type of sale or promotion going on... ALWAYS! idk how they make money. but, anyways,
but, i did come across, a free people tunic/dress. at the least, i will wear it as a beach cover up... AT THE LEAST ;) i can definitely go from beach to the strip for drinks with this on. whatev, i might throw on a cardi with and rock my gladiators, like whatevvvva.
AND THE "BIG DEAL-HOLLYFIELD-PURCHASE".... was my WONDERFUL, sizes too big, but i know how to tweak, cant live without, i NEED THAT IN MY LIFE, originally priced $600...
MISSONI DRESS!!!
HOOOOOOOOOOOLLA like Frankie! (you know, Keyshia Coles mother. KISS YO SELF!)
thats the front and meet the back ;)
this is definitely going to be a day time outfit with wedges, like whoa. & throw my mike and chris leather jacket on with it and ill be stuntin like my daddy in this. yesss! see the thing is, i know in the day its going to be really nice weather, prob in the high 70s. but at night, its going to drop to something a little cooler. i mean, i dont care. anything is better than this SNOW and 30 DEGREE weather im dealing with right now. i get to lay out on the beach! point. JET SKI, DOUBLE POINTS. and im going to look dime doing it all, JACKPOT BABY!
and whats the best part about this purchase, .... it was ALL LESS THAN $15. be careful, pick up your jaw and breathe! :) I LOVE MY LIFE !!
a girl in her early 20s who is still finding herself. and along the way she found the love of the arts. art geek + fashion freak + music unique. yup thats me. i love having fun, and most of the time wherever i go, i do. im passionate about life.
ps. new york city is my favorite city HANDS DOWN and not just because i live 10 minutes away.
