YES!!! DRAKE is finally hittin up the bay!! super juiced, I already know it's going to be a sick show. He's already killin it with everything else, it'll be amazing to see him live! annnd trust, I will be front row on the top balcony!! I would be in the General Admission section but that might get to wild down there. I wanna enjoy it, not bumpin' into sweaty shoulders.

Tickets on sale this Friday.

=.[ =.[ =.[ =.[



Yesterday at work my Big toe broke the fall of a heavy glass shelf. Because I saved the life of the shelf i am now not enjoying my life right now. I've never felt this much pain before, and hope to never feel anything like this ever again.

Today, I had a very important job interview with Byer Califonia. Just because of my disability I HAD to go to this interview. So the only shoe that fit my FAT TOE were my combat boots. How unprofessional, i know! Had no choice. But luckily they understood, and I did really well in my interview!!! Hope to hear from them next week with some good news.

Anyways, what I wanted to say was that: the smallest part of your body can effect your entire body and also your life. This toe makes it really difficult to walk around, brings chills down my back, shooting pains up my leg, and sleepless nights. So it is extremely important to put your health and safety as a first priority. We only have one, so make it last long.

Stay righteous =.]

LOOK-A-LIKES


Jennifer Peeptoe Boots $26.80 Forever21.com

We all love Rhianna's style but can't afford the glamor and glitz of having a millions of $$ and a stylist.

Forever 21 sure does help in that department. And especially if you are ballin' on a budget and it's in your blood to still look fly, check these LOOK-A-LIKES! These are great for casual and for a semi-formal event. I just wish the peep toe wasn't so big! but still a very cute boot.


BOOTS I'D KILL FOR




yes i said it! I'D KILL FOR THESE BOOTS!!!!

but i wont. it's not in my nature to kill. It is purely a fatal attraction between me and these Christian Louboutin thigh high boots. I highly suggest, if you own a pair of these baaad girls, to keep your distance from me. I honestly don't know what i would do.

NEW BOY TOY: JESUS LUZ

First and for most, I want to thank God for JEREMY DANTE!!!!! I follow his blog frequently, he covers the high fashion industry, from runways to editorials. As for me, I am more of a free bird when it comes to fashion, depends on how im feeling-fashion is my form of expression. I appriacate the art of high fashion but just isn't my forte. however, Jeremy is the man to go to to get educated.

So he recently posted photos from a 20 page editorial spread of Brazilian Male Model Superstar, Jesus Luz. This man is so delish- i am salvitating as i type this. Enjoy!

STEPPING INTO AN ICE AGE in FW10





Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel's Fall/Winter 2010 collection was showcased in Paris a few weeks ago. I must say, some pieces used the fur (i hope it was Faux Fur-i doubt tho) in a complementary way to go with the non-fur material, but in other pieces it just ended up looking like Sashsquash was walking down the runway. I felt he took the theme a lil to literal and lost the Chanel's classic, chic, and mod look! However, I can't hate on uniqueness he took Chanel in a new direction and change is always a good thing.

What do ya'll think about it?

VALENTINE'S DAY OUTFIT

HAPPY BELATED VALENTINES DAY! hope everyone enjoyed and hope you guys used protection =.] omg I meant to post this sooner! sorry yall! the trend I was into for this Romantic Hallmark holiday was not hearts, not rose red, or hot pink. NUDE. and instead of hearts, emphasize and accessories with the one thing that women love to receive other than chocolate.


a nude flirty dress. an off the shoulder would get his attention mos def! Floral accents just give it a girly touch. Valentines Day during the winter? Damn! why not bring spring just for one day.

THIS IS ONE REASON WHY I LOVE SF

Rules:

1) Tell everyone you know about PILLOW FIGHT!!!
2) Tell everyone you know about PILLOW FIGHT!!!
3) Wait for the Ferry Building clock to strike 6:00pm
4) Don't hit anyone without a pillow (unless they want it)
5) Don't hit anyone with a camera
6) HAVE FUN!!!

(Rain plan: put your pillow in a plastic bag, see Rules 1 - 6)
Please bring ONLY pillows filled with natural materials (like cotton, hemp, and down) and not synthetics which will wash into the Bay and harm marine life.
Practice responsible fun and help cleanup afterwards

GET CAGED UP



BE FASHIONABLE

" Never chase trends - instead stay true to your own set of rules… The most fashionable thing you can be is you." (via Bryan Izon FB status)

THE ICONIC GRACE JONES



the epitome of fierce. Way before Beyonce's alter ego Sasha Fierce came into the scene, Grace Jones was 100% original, from her face, body, and style is stood out from the rest. It was during the 90's her edgy, dark, futuristic style made a strong statement while everyone else was into bright tacky colored outfits, unflattering suits, and ugly floral print. a fashion icon forsure!!

BAG LADY

"Bag lady you gone hurt your back
Dragging all them bags like that
I guess nobody ever told you
All you must hold on to
Is you, is you, is you"


an amazing simplistic video by Miss
Erykah Badu. She is the voice for the
independent strong women of today.

She inspires me.
