She Want That Old Thing Back...

"I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public, not for fashion, not for men."
Marlene Dietrich

I think fashion & style are maturing.. & I love it!!


I think that ever since Louis V did the collab thingy with Stephen Sprouse it granted leeway for high fashion brands to be grown and urban at the same time. I think it as well allowed urban brands to get on they grown shxt. Get it? Like, it's okay to wear Louis V with some vintage Jordans or a gummy bears ring =D

via the sartorialist... aren't NY'ers flii ^_^

Exhibit B.. The Dee & Ricky brooches for Marc Jacobs.. Urban & High Fashion are joining and in a lovely way...

... A Dollar & A Dream...

Trey Songz was in my hood... for a cd signing.. there were tears and some fainting
Clamy... Glad I saw her in line ^_^

Maybe I would've received that sexy smile if I cried or fainted.. v_v.. Damn him not being Batman or Jay-Z


& while some gentlemen were very "Mr. Bentley" for the occasion.. some females... were trendy & over the top..
How Not To Wear Doc Martens. Exhibit A.. & she had a blonde mohawk w/ pink streaks.. Trends die so hard... & some try too hard to be "different" & "original"..

Word of Advice: If it feels forced... It looks forced.. GrRr

Then I got elbowed in my chest.. Young ladies & security guards go hard.. Just for some fat bodyguard to get in the way of my pic smh

Everybody Meet Mrs. Me Too

Truth: Sometimes I wake up for school, have no idea what to wear & have little time to choose an outfit.

Lie: I look at the celebs photos in my "RandomFlyIsh" Folder & Put On EXACTLY what they have on. *My indecisive ass*

I certainly do not wear exactly what the celebs wear. I may look at the fit and color combination and grab inspiration for an outfit from it. BUT I ALWAYS make sure my personal style shows. FuQ The Celebs o_O



I would have never thought to wear these colors together v_v

The jean jacket is certainly "in" & fashionable but I was never the type, k. If you're gonna copy. make it yur own. Make it so that people see what yu have on & forget that they ever saw the next nigguh in it. Copy the fashion, make yur personal style vivid.
*the diff between fashion & style below my pic...

*These are before my hair got acquainted with the comb & brush. Don't Judge me

To have a personal style is to have a statement you want to make with your clothing. You use your body as a palette and try to make your outfit into a work of art. Thought goes into a personal style. There are three “yous,” you as you see yourself, you as others see you, and you as you want others to see you. The aim of an impeccable personal style should be to bring these three yous as close together as possible….Which brings us to fashion. There is a reason why the term “dedicated follower of fashion” exists. Because fashion is following trends that are current. It doesn’t matter if the trend is ugly, if it doesn’t go with your personality, if it’s not flattering to your body shape, if the color that is in season does not go with you at all….all that’s irrelevant when you’re trying to be fashionable. Fashion is about checking your mind in at the door and slavishly keeping up with what other people are wearing.”

Get Your Mind Right Mami

I'm growing up.. I like shoes. I like pumps and Sebago or Sperry docksides.. I like khakis and dickies and the occasional diverse Vans sneaker or Chuck Taylor. I like my sneakers to be able to be both able to be worn casually and professionally. I hate when boys that I used to date say ".. I remember I used to love that you always had the latest ball kicks.. You were madd fly.." like I still have sum fly shxt in my closet but I'm getting older and my closet is more versatile now.. Get with it.. K




Giuseppe Zanotti pearl croc patent lace up booties



Christian Louboutin Glitter Pump Slingbacks


I feel like I need a pair of these.. but prettier.. for all those boys that liked me in ball kicks all of the time.. smh








I feel like.. Lately I've been going through tons of fashion blogs & people are wearing things that are like 8 million dollars.. K, I'm exaggerating but like.. I personally cannot afford $250 shoes or shorts.. Although I can put it together nicely.. Fashion blogs are like runway shows for people like me. Just for show.. Not mine though ^_^.. well, maybe this post is...

Had To Take Off The Blazer, Loosen Up The Tie

If Diggy ain't a well dressed young man. Much congrats on his eighth grade graudation. Check his blog shxt digslifeofthejetsetter.blogspot.com .. See, I support

I really wanna address the suit & the bowtie. We had to wear uniform and seniors had the option of wearing business suits and people, both male and female, seemed to be scared about that. They all thought that they couldn't be flii in a suit BUT I say it shows a more grown up, cleaned up look.. & it doesn't have to look like yur heading to church.. i mean check out Diggy in his Dee and Ricky shit, nice J.O's, real clean.. Nice fit, the blazer, the materials, the colors.. Suits can def be flii

Ladies!!I understand a lot of ya'll wanna like be on some new new shxt.. ok whatever.. I simply feel as if the suit can be manipulated & females look sexy in 'em. I mean GQ is my bible somewhat. Ya'll can get on ya'll color shxt, play with the fit & a nice shoe. Bowties don't have to be button up & slacks. Own it if you're gonna wear it. Insecurity shows. Dress it up in front of yur mirror & be confident in yur creation.

I adore how Yeezy played with color in this one. I see that the shoes kinda go with the glasses but they're distracting me. Take that away & do a diff color shoe or do a longer pant with a slimmer shoe maybe.. HmMm.. then maybe I could fuq w/ the whole outfit.. But in the state it's in now, in all of it's flyness, something is making me uneasy


Marc!!! I wanted my prom date to dress like this!! Sexy shxt.. Marc Jacobs is a beast indeed... One thing I like about runway is when realistic clothing that people would actually wear is on it.. I don't want any Fergie 3008 SHxT on the runway cause it's not real.. maybe fore vogue but not for some real shxt

The Camera Catches What They Eyes Can't See

I've often thought that so many things are disappearing. Hobbies, interests and taste as well seem to be lessening as we progress. Jay-Z is old skool, Lil' NxGGuHz don't know Biggie SHxT, polo's, plaid shirts & nike shox... UgHh.. Our generation is conforming so rapidly thus it's spreading to some youth but I'm enthralled when I see children like this.. They give me SoOo much hope for the future and the children that I plan on having....




via. streetetiquette.com


He picked out his own outfit but he stills scuffs his kicks and likes to play rough like all children do.. FuQiiN Adorable




via thesartorialist.blogspot.com


This is SoOo adorable!! I have hope that my future children will know the classic eric b & rakim, biggie, tupac don killuminati... & they will be creative bad ass geniuses that dress like champions.. I am impressed.. the color coordination, the fit.. i'm both jealous & fashionably upstaged.. Check the cutie in his chucks.. chiiilll

My fav. SuperBaDd besties.. Kelis and Dania

Kelis is my mommy in my head & my inspiration.. *swoons*

Get Ya SwaGG Back Daddy, Where Ya Focus At??

I have been slacking.. But BOY do I have some updates, I think. I got tired of asking people to stop and let me thake their pics. People in NY walk fast. & I would always forget to give them the blog site address. Anywho.. there are soo many fashion blogs, I'll take their pics, site my sources & go about my business. ^_^


*** It's getting warm. I almost got scared that girls would NEVER let go of the UGGs but I see that we are maturing. Now that they let go though, the jeans are getting tighter & the clothes are getting less so I'm seeing panty lines! I'm not Lil' Jon & The Eastside Boys therefore it is NOT cute to me. Ok, so my jokes are a bit wack BUT Seventeen mag gives great tips on what types of bras & underwear to wear with certain outfits to avoid these seeing issues. Gross & Funny ^_^..





Let's Get iT Together For The Summer Please.. -_-

It's a Celebration BxTCHES

Pardon my vulagrity.. Anywho I've decided that I need a skateboarder or artist or poet or vocalist or musician or someone of the creative, intellectual, goofy sort in my life BUT I totally digress.. Anywho.. School is nearing an end YaY! & Prom is closing in *bites nails* I'm having prom date drama.. SmH

Look! I designed my prom dress. I'll post pics of me in it.. possibly on Saturday or Sunday or a week from prom day Hehe ^_^



My little brain is full of ideas... see ^_^.. Maybe I should consider design school.. Anywho my idea for the design was heavily inspired by "The Piano Dress" By the DOPE designer Karl Lagerfeld... It was a dress for Chanel




I don't have a BaDd Dude or ChiQ For This Post.. Maybe next post.. & I wanna talk about girls in button ups... Next Time.. Good NiTe ^_^

Smile Like You Mean iT

SzOo I'll post something important later BUT.. Howard University, NYU & Parsons the New School for Design... 3 of my 4 top choice colleges... All accepted me.. I have to choose between 3 of my 4 top choices & on top of that BS. I have to choose whether I see myself with a future in Fashion Design or Psychology.. I'm extremely passionate about both.. NYU & Parsons both offered me scholarships.. All 3 are amazing... This is a predicament people! SmH.. I hate making crucial decisions...

Straying away from the sad ish... On another note.. Kesh could get it.. But She's BaDd.. No??

SzOo Damn Clever

I didn't use to like the Harem Pants Until I saw some fly ladies overseas wear 'em sooo nicely w/ some sexy red bottoms *drools* I'm too short to throw a pair of these pants on anyway.. BUT


^^ I like the outfit on the right.. not so much the one on the left...



The Harem Pants... I was telling my friend Chiamaka that she should get a pair because she'd look awesome in them with a pair of heels. She's like Blah blah whatever because she's tall & I'm like DUDE, that's what makes it sexii & she agreed so I hope she gets a pair.. Imagine her in 'em (height & nice figure)..



I also like when dudes wear the harem pants. This one model dude wore 'em & they looked so fly.. I just didn't wanna steal his pics from his myspace cause.... that would be creepy... o_0
Dior Did it though.. Def not as fly as the dude on myspace but I see how the tried to rock it out... *shrugs*



I knew I'd hate 'em again when some Hood Shortii got a hold of 'em and messed it up for me... Thank You Jaslene from America's Next Top Model.. No.. Hell No... No Ma'am.. Maybe it's her body that's making me hate it.. or maybe it's the red fur... either way.. Hell No
