Cute, eh?

Sitting pretty at the New York Knicks and the New Jersey Nets game at Madison Square Garden, Kimora Lee Simmons, Tyra Banks, beyonce and Jay-Z.
Who looks more bored? But I’m loving the heels on Ms.B! Wonder where I can get those( or a very chic looking knock off)? hmmmm…

Cute Find of the Day: HIGH WAIST SKIRT

The debate seems to be never ending about whether high waisted pants are a sensical fashion choice, or not? The last poll I did, more than 80% of you hate it.

But I’ve seen far more people wearing (and wearing it well) high waisted skirts.

Pencil High waisted skirts can fit almost any body type. It elongates the legs and emphasizes the bust area and minimizes the waistline. Shoot, do we need any more reasons to hop on this trend?

The Skinny Model Debate: Let them eat cake!

Oh heck…Paris Haute week just wrapped up and we’re on the heel of NYC fashion week, and of course there is still the heated debate about the “toothpick thin” models. What to do, what to do? The industry is certainly getting a lot of pressure from people both within and outside.
Shoot, I say let it be. These people have built an empire on skinny-ness being the epitome of a great model (ok except Tyra Banks – who claims she was never bone thin, on her Larry King Interview last night).
But I digress, point is Rome was not built in one day, and it’ll probably take more days to renovate. The fashion industry needs a self-evaluation and a make-over, true. Most of these models have a steady diet of fruits, miso soup and cigarettes, true. It will take more than talk to have more “healthier” looking models on the runway, true.
We know for sure that they’ll be a staple on the London catwalks
What’s you’re two cents on the issue?
