Runway look from Helmut Lang.
I am in search of this gray jacket - it actually zips for a more form fitting look.

MAC PlushGlass

MAC PlushGlass in Cushy White

A great new find!!

Sheer lip colour with a pearlized high-shine gloss finish. Comfortable to wear: lush, multi-dimensional. Gives a cool-warm, vanilla buzz to the lips. Moisturizes, soothes and visibly plumps the lips to make them look luxuriously healthy and well-conditioned. Contains vitamin E for added environmental protection.

Shoe of the Day!!

Alexander McQueen Origami Snap Boot @ Bergdorf Goodman

A little bit 80's, a little bit Rock N Roll.

These sure would be hot with some skinny jeans, an Alexander Wang T and an armful of bracelets.

Mr. McQueen is one of my favorite designers.

Burberry Scarf

Featured in InStyle Magazine.

I love the Burberry Wool & Silk Tube scarf.

Leather Gloves

Leather Gloves for fall are all the rage.

On the runway at Burberry Prorsum . . .

Street style in New York. . .

Lot's of designers are making incredible gloves this season.

Rachel Roy at Macy's

In an effort to reach a broader consumer, Rachel has added a new label to her designs:

RACHEL by Rachel Roy

It includes clothes, shoes, handbags and jewels. Fun stuff for her.

I have always loved the Rachel Roy Collection (though quite steep in price).
The look for the new line may be a little on the younger side but could be fun to mix in a piece or 2.

It is all about HIGH-LOW!

Dior Eyeshadow

Dior eyeshadow is all the rage among top makeup artists. It goes on silky and doesnt flake or crumble (especially when applying those dark colors for smoke eyes).

Thanks to http://www.makeupbysong.com/ for the tip!

Amber Rose does Complex Magazine

I have seen her in person, from a foot away.
She is very striking and seemingly sweet.
The more I hear her speak the more I actually like her. . . which isnt usually the case.

Vibe + Uptown = A REVIVAL!??

The owners of Uptown magazine, including former Vibe Group Publisher Leonard Burnett Jr., are said to be near a deal to acquire the Vibe brand from CapitalSource, the major debt holder at Vibe when Wicks Group announced its shutdown in June.

Wicks Group paid about $35 million, with financing from CapitalSource, to buy Vibe in 2006. And since the magazine's shutdown, executives close to the matter said, CapitalSource has been trying to recoup some of the unrecovered debt by accepting offers from potential buyers.

A spokesman for CapitalSource didn't respond to voicemails and e-mails seeking comment. Wicks Group declined to comment. A spokeswoman for Uptown declined to comment.

It's unclear what Uptown has planned for Vibe if the deal goes through, whether Vibe will return to print and how often it will publish, for example, or whether it will return as an online-only brand.

In any case, however, Vibe’s resurrection would be welcome news not only for its fans but for the magazine industry, which has said goodbye to many titles as recession exacerbated the challenges posed by a changing media business

Shoe of the Day!!

I saw these Loubs in a closed toe version as well.

Mama can TOTALLY pull these off!

Alexander Wang Tshirt

One of my favorite Tshirts currently out there.
Surprisingly this style is more flattering than you might think.

I love to do a half tuck (just a bit on the side/front) and let the rest hang out with a pinstripe blazer and jeans and sexy shoes.


Available at various boutiques.

Christian Louboutin New Simple Pump - in bright blue

This is one of his most simple designs but also my most favorite. He comes out with new colors every season. I am obsessed with this bright blue.

Best body creme. . . .

This delicous and rich body creme is perfect for everyday use.
It saturates and hydrates the body all day.

I am a nut about moisturized skin and this is by far one of the best I have found.
