Just a Public Service Announcement

I AM SO SICK OF FLANNEL!It was cute at one time, I rocked the over sized flannel shirt twice, but I can't go out anymore without seeing it on at least 10 people. It's getting a bit much. Yes it's a highly accessible and common pattern, yes anyone can wear it, but DO SOMETHING ORIGINAL! It's like the new fresh thing, now that Obama Chic has run it's course. I will really be pissed off if guys think that just because they're wearing flannel now, doesn't mean they have to shave. Un-Uh...please stop the madness.

I feel like I need to bring throwbacks back for the hell of it, or ....on some just cause
or maybe...y'all could wear this..

The Music Jacket: IM King: $90.00: This model is not doing this Jacket Justice
It's nice and warm, just like flannel. PLUS it's Robin's Egg Blue (Tiffany's Blue) which is known to attract women like Jupiter's gravitational pull.

Next up on the Chopping Block: Useless ass Scarves....when it's 80 degrees outside

"My Body's Freezing Cold"

Song: Roleplay
Artist: Trey Songz
Album: Trey Day

So, the inauguration madness was exactly what it was, madness. I can't even begin to explain it, but within all the chaos came a one true minute of beauty where everyone came together. No bull, like seriously. Of course when people asked me was it worth it to come all this way to see Obama, I laughed and said "I didn't come for Obama, I came to see off President Bush." (I was being facetious) anyways, so besides my toes freezing in my boots. My fingers weren't doing so hot either.

See, they were nice and toasty inside of my gloves, but I had to keep taking them off to text and call people on my Iphone. I was so upset, I serendipitously ran into Goofy and Pluto and they encountered the same problem, their solution was to cut the fingers off their gloves. Ingenutive, yes. Heat effective, no. So I've been searching for some iPhone compatible gloves and I've found these.

Okay, so they're not cute. I don't like them, but you know they're functional. So if you're one of those people who choose function over fashion, then these are for you. They run about 27.00 @ Tavo However, for those of us who don't want to look like we're at the slopes all the time...
Fingerless Leather Driving Gloves!!!

Okay, so the leather driving gloves were so Lindsay Lohan 2006, (pre-rehab) however now they have use, and FUNKY COLORS! Oh I'll do that anyday thankyou. Of course they will leave your little fingers bare, however you'll look fly.

The Beat is D minor but I'm oh so Major

Song: Brooklyn Girl
Artist: Charles Hamilton
Album: It Ain't Out Yet...

^I'm getting a little Lazy On the Downloads, next post I'll hit y'all with something super special!

Anyways, I've been searching the world for an iPhone 3G case. At this point in time my iPhone is running around naked like a little apple sponsored nudist. However, I just ordered something that will finally be-cloth, or should I say Be-silicone my little fruity bundle of joy. Dr. Orvin Scrivello will now be covered by an Incipio Brand case of feathery goodness. Check it out.It's super light weight, dockable and durable. (just how I like em) I'm excited. Let's hope it gets here fast.

"Hello Kitty, Play With Us Today"

Song: Hello Kitty Theme
Artist: Hello Kitty


Okay, so my friend is a freaking Hello Kitty fanatic, and she also happens to like Mac Cosmetics. So in other words she's a regular girl, so this post is for all the regular girls. MAC Cosmetics has confirmed a collaboration with Sanrio's most beloved character, Hello Kitty! Yeah I said it, Hello Kitty. The new line is said to be debuted in early February 2009. Trust and believe this stuff will sell out. Mark Your Calendars ladies, and don't be surprised if I throw bows while trying to get to the counter.CORRECTION: My Fanatic friend went to the Mac Counter as soon as I told her, the release date is JANUARY 12th YALL!

Too Much of Something is Just As Tough

Song: Too Much
Artist: Spice Girls
Album: Spiceworld

This can also be entitled, "When Good Trends Go Bad"

On my break, I usually walk around the mall and talk on the phone. I don't eat (because I'm broke) but I window shop. I can't even walk into stores like Forever 21 and Wet Seal anymore. They just bother me, cause the mall I work at is so Janky. Yes I'm spoiled now that I've had a taste of Lenox (which isn't even that great anyways) However, I saw signs for sales and whatnot and against my better judgment I decided to take a peek at what these stores had to offer. What I saw, underneath all of the retail carnage, was horrendous, or should I say (Whorendous....hahha I crack myself up)

What I realized, was that some of these trends were actually great trends, but the low budget versions thouroughly missed the mark. Hmm... lets take a look, shall we?Hmm, the testy leopard print. Leopard is wonderful, it's sexy when it peeks out from unexpected places, but can be overwhelming when it's the major print in your ensemble. As you can see, Leopard can only be pulled off in certain fabrics and prints. A fabric cut with no depth and movement, get's you nowhere, especailly if it's the main part of your outfit (ie. Your Whole Dress)The Rouched shirt. This is great when you want to hid little problem spots, while not wanting to wear a Moo-Moo. (Or Mu-Mu if you want to sound chic) However, again it depends on what kind of fabric you use. The model seems to be wearing a light jersey material, while the tank-halter shirt thing is more of a stiff rayon material. Not a good look, you'll have pointy bumps all over, rather than that flowing draping look you were going for. Also, on the brown shirt, the seams are right down the middle, wich will create a break in the smooth draping look, and will just make the fabric look like it's pulling, Rather than in the red shirt, where the seams are at the sides, and the material doesn't look like it's forced to create that effect.The Cool, Hip, Hoodie: Everyone's trying to get on the crazy train with this trend. People think if you throw a few bold colors and a patern on a sweatshirt (and maybe give the model some skinnies) you'll get instant success. This is not the case. The sweatshirt on the right makes no sense at all, Pixelated Cheetah? I'm ashamed, and the black banding around the waist and arms that already looks faded, yeah not worth it.
Juicy Couture VS. Forever 21: Juicy is clear winner, Forever looks as if they took a jumper that didn't sell too well last year and stuck feathers on the bottom to jump on the Alexander McQueen/Kenly crazy train. If you're going to add feathers, don't make it look like you stole them from a feather boa that belongs in claires. Also, the Feather's shouldn't make the dress, the Juicy dress is an outstanding little jumper on it's own, but the added trim gives it a funky flair that's just right for the dress. It's not too simple with a gaudy trim, or too much with an over the top hem. It's just right.


This marks the end of installment one.

On the Barneys front floor, there are only two names that matter. Christian and Manolo, I personally, don't go just by how frequently a designers name was dropped in a single Sex in the City episode. If you were to ask me, Guiseppe should be right up there on that list, y'all know who I'm talking about.

Flipping In the Ghetto on A Dirty Mattress

Song: Everything is Everything
Artist: Lauryn Hill
Album: The Mis-education of Lauryn Hill


So apparently I'm what Black People call Thick, what White People call Fat, and what my doctor calls approaching Obesity. (Thanks Doc)

I'm no small girl, but I'm not big either, I'm RIGHT SMACK IN THE MIDDLE, and I'm perfectly fine with it. (Depending on what day you catch me on) Oh, so why am I rambling about this?

...I found these today. (Well I've actually been spying on them for some time, but I can actually afford them now.)

Unlike many, I have no qualms to leggings, but these are florescent pink, with a little neon green in the mix, and fat scribbly writing all over. On this model that makes them a must have, but on MY ass? I bet the letters will magically re-arrange themselves to spell out: CAUTION WIDE LOAD....

to buy or not to buy? Hmmm.....

"RUN DMV"

Im really excited, yet also a little saddened by the fact that I have JUST discovered, a new clothing line straight from Chocolate City, more commonly known as Washington, D.C.... But, back to the point at hand... Apparently there has been this clothing line known as "Clockwise Clothing" that sells funky t-shirts that are unique in language to the area in which I am from... Shirts using D.C. slang terms such as "DMV", "bamma", "swellin'", and the list goes on... Now, for those of you who don't know, the initials "DMV" (because it is technically not an acronym), stand for "D.C., Maryland, and Virginia"... The D.C. Metro area has decided to embrace its Maryland and Virginia counterparts by including them in the new official nick-name known as the DMV... But back to the shirts... They have cool phrases and come in funky colors and in my opinion they are really awesome, they even have the one and only Wale rocking there stuff... Just one complaint some of the cooler women's t-shirts do not come in XL, showing no love for our thicker chick with bigger "tits", (just had to say it, it rhymed) but its all good... So, check out there website clockwiseclothing.com , they have been on the seen since the beginning of last year I believe but not quite sure, and I may be wrong about this too but not to many people know about them... So "HOP ON"...
