a-men for fashion.

mens fashion is a hard thing to pin-point. there is so many different styles different guys try to portray, but i know one thing for sure. if i was a dude i would be dressing like the sexy british and aussies with just a dash of kanye west's swagger. they got their ish together down under.

RULE NUMERO UNO: PLEASE BURN EVERYTHING & ANYTHING ED HARDY HAS EVER CREATED.

i always think people look best when they look like they just rolled out of bed and through something together. a little rough around the edges, maybe doesn't match perfectly, but it totally works. for guys. i think there's a perfect combination somewhere between urban hipster, skater and hip-hop. but thats just me.. just anything beats basketball shorts & a wife-beater. that is NOT hot. or considered an "outfit".

some random men who i think did or currently do have AM-AZING inspirational style?

obviously, pharrell williams. he is just the man. period. homeboy always manages
to put a fun-spin on whatever it is that he's wearing a pair up funky hip-hop street wear with
whatever is currently the hottest fashion trend. and most importantly, he always looks sexy as hell while doing it. i like to think of pharrell as one of the posterboys for revamping the rayban trend. he also jump-started the whole flannel fad and brought it back from lumberjack to being a staple of any fashionisto's closet. mmm mmm mm i love me some pharrell.

another close second is hip-hop mogul kanye west. although he is most prominently known for his talent and work with music; kanye has also made a positive last impression on fashion. perhaps the motive for his influential mark on menswear comes from his undying love for the sexy ladies surrounding the industry. west was once engaged to both model & designer alexis phifer who he credits for helping to create his fierce "pop-lux" style.
"everything about me is pop & luxury," west says.
after splitting from phifer kanye has since moved on to yet another model, who has believe it or not an even more wild, out there personal style.. amber rose!
kanye is currently working as a fashion intern at GAP and is in talks to be creating his own line.


what about some old school legends who have left a lasting impression for their epic signature fashions?

my dad will be happy about this one...
one of his all time favorites: frank sinatra.
talk about a classy guy! rockin' that fedora, skinny tie and blazer.
fashion perfection at its finest.

a synonym for deliciously, sexy style? umm... james dean.
talk about a bonafide badass.
from his raybans, perfectly tasseled hair, leather jackets
to his fitted tees and peacoats, mister dean always looked a-okay in my book.

for i don't care too much for money,

"for, money can't buy me love".

talk about amazing styling






dude, i fucking love rachel zoe and think that her styling is without a doubt the shittttt. and, it's no secret that i am far from a kirsten dunst enthusiast or even a fan by any means, but the clothes, setting and entire aesthetic behind the film "marie antionette" is what makes it positively delightful. now as for the casting directors behind the film... i don't know who would put kirsten dunst in a film of this stature. i mean c'mon the girl is beyond talentless, she's an alcoholic/drug-addicted mess and she's not even kinda cute. my personal choice to play the queen would be scarlett johanssen. that girl is the shit in every way possible and she's stunning!

but back to the clothes! obviously no one could get away with going out in public dressed the way these ladies of royalty were decked out at the palace balls and i think that is part of what makes the scenes so extraordinary. it was a fun, innovative, slightly more fun take on what the etiquette and wardrobe was like back then. the hair pieces, the dresses and the shoes were all CUSTOM-MADE by the best of the best. Each pair of shoes were individually designed by shoe-legend manolo blahnik himself!

cute kids.... and they're white?




i don't care what anyone says i freakin' love tori & dean and their adorable family. their little gingered-haired babies make my life, especially little liam. i just finished up reading both sTORI telling and mommywood and loved them both. they have the most amazing little family and hilarious children. love love love.

bad to the ass




rhianna is killinnnn' it in the new italian vogue, shot by famous fashion photographer steven klein (hopefully he doesn't follow in the footsteps of all his co-workers and file for bankruptcy anytime soon cause i sure do enjoy checkin out his work, which frequently graces the pages of vogue, harper's bazaar and w magz!) 

fa'real though i love rhianna she's always reinventing herself and down to take risks with her music and not to mention her innovative fashion choices. i am totally team rhianna. i just watched chris breezy on larry king. whatta tool. he used to be so banging. as in i wanted to bang him and used to lust after his music videos like a 15-year-old boy watching "a night in paris". but, anywaysss keep it hp rhi-rhi.

you still have my heart, 
and we'll never be a world apart ;D
