Greatness + Greatness = GREATGREATNESS


Lil Mama's New video "Shawty Get Loose"


I am in love with this video. Lil Mama and C.B totally outdid themselves with this one. The video is somewhat reminiscent of Janet Jackson and her brother, Michaels' "Scream". Lil Mama looks gorgeous with her asymmetrical bob and then the long Beyonce weave. Her skin tight leather skinny pants were also pretty fly. And of course Chris Brown looked suave dancing his butt off in his all white suit. Also I loved the neon colors and the crazy atmosphere they created. Anyway that's it for today, Deuces.

BB Dakota


Yet another line I discovered on karmaloop.com. BB Dakota is what can I say, hmm.... a line for the urban collegiate/business women, before and after hours. Now when I say collegiate I mean any woman who takes life as learning experience and is open to new things. Now when I say business woman I mean any woman who is about her business in any situation and than some. They offer very simple but unique pieces. Mainly dresses and jackets. I personally am in love with their jackets. Here are some of my picks:



cool urban fashion clothing
80's style windbreaker bomber





flowy victorian style trench

Model Citizen (#4)


Tiffany Evans, once a contestant, on star search is now all grown up. She came back on the music scene with her first single "Promise Ring" featuring Ciara, and a completely new edgy look. Her angled bob (similar to Rihanna) proved that she was all grown up along with her new punk rock meets R and B soul ensemble. Her wardrobe is very colorful and vibrant consisting of colorful sneakers, trendy necklaces, screen tee's, bold bracelets and earrings, and colorful jackets. She can definitely walk in a room and own it like a rock star with her fabulous wardrobe. Check out her second single "I'm Grown" featuring Bow Wow and her myspace: http://www.myspace.com/tiffanyevansmusic.

.....Fashion Wisdom of The Week....

First addition to the fashion wisdom of the week.....

  • "A good stylist can't be organically creative if they allow themselves to be dictated by fashion trends - Rick Ramsey "
The definition of trend is :The general direction in which something tends to move. Heres my thing with trends, in fashion their of course are trends which some people are afraid to follow because they think it will take the unique vibe out of their style. Well like the definition states fashion does flow in different directions at different times and its OK to flow with it. Following trends is OK as long as a person still stays true to their own personal style. People shouldn't follow certain trends(ex. high waist jeans) if their not really interested in it or think it fly. If they are just wearing something because it's hot than I can't agree with that.
