Did You Notice?

When I was browsing through Naomi Campbell's photos from the Vogue Italia something happened to catch my eye... Tell me if it caught yours too

Y-3

Y-3 is a company that I'd been looking at in the past for casual wear. You know that kind of "Whatever is ok day." Sporty, laid back, casual to say the least. However Y-3 brings it up just a notch or two. I really think you could wear some of these pieces to the office with no problem. Then you could go out too. At any rate Y-3's Fall Ready To Wear Fall 2008 Collection is a keeper. Here's just a few pieces.

Relax, take a afternoon stroll. You'd be dress to! Too cute!

On The Campaign Trail: Versace

This is a glimpse from the Fall 2008 Ad Campaign for Versace. The campaign features models Isabeli Fontana {pictured left} and Natalia Vodianova with images taken by Mario Testino.

Versace's latest ad campaign shot
s utilized a quiet lesbian relationship between Natalia and Isabeli for the theme. The pictures explore the dynamics of the average hetero/homosexual relationship. From moments where one party needs their "space" to the moments that breed nights of passion. Testino's pics start appearing in various fashion publications this month.

Anastasia-A Flare For The Different

Okay, now I love almost anything that is different, yet-stylish, and can be considered a classic. Which is why I love this shop called Anastasia. OMG! They have way too many designers for me to list here. The majority of their things is just plain different. Some, different to an extreme, some pleasantly different. All with an edge you may not have thought of. Here are a few selections that I absolutely LOVE!

ES Orchestres, "Summer Coat"

Rue Du Mail, "Organza Applique Dress"

Junya Watanabe, "Black Linen Dress"

Junya Watanabe, "Ruffle Blouse"

A.F. Vandevorst "Long Dress"

Now I don't know if I'd ever wear the shoe, probably would, but it would definitely have to be a crazy day!

Jay-Z & Diddy Promote Male Privates Waxing

Could the waxing of male hair down there have already become a trend? Judging by the fact that ‘masculine’ male rappers and hip-hop artists Jay-Z and Diddy are singing the praises of the male Brazilian waxes, it just might have.
Diddy admitted to Metro UK magazine that he waxes his privates, “While I’m getting ready I like to relax with a drink — vodka and lemonade — and listen to some James Brown. Then I’ll have a manicure and pedicure — and yes, I wax as well. Men owe it to women to make sure they are well-groomed. I wax my privates.”
While Jay-Z described the benefit of the process to US Weekly magazine as, “Bald is beautiful.”

Wouldn't you just love to be a fly on the wall??? I know I'm being bad but it was just to irresistible!

"Aaawww that's sooo swweettt!"

Armani

Giorgio Armani, June 30, 2008 after the Priv Fall 2008 Fall Haute Couture Fashion Show in Paris


And there you have it. The genius that is unmistakeably Armani. I'd say he more than deserved the "French Legion of Honor Award." And any other awards that may come his way.

Giorgio Armani Receives French 'Legion of Honor'

Giorgio Armani & French President Nicolas Sarkozy
Infamous Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani has received the prestigious French award, the Legion of Honor by French President Nicolas Sarkozy.
“It’s an immense honor for me, and one that reflects very well on all the great people we have at Giorgio Armani,” the designer said of the honor.
Many of Armani’s famous friends attended the ceremony including British actress Helen Mirren, Nathalie Rykiel, Lady Helen Taylor, Eugenia Silva and Carla and Silvia Fendi. The ceremony was held at the winter garden of the Elysee Palace in Paris. Singer Tina Turner serenaded all attendees with an impromptu version of her hit song, “Simply the Best.” (Reported by Godfrey Deeny)

Girl, I can Tanga!


Had to check in at Tanga for a minute. I wanted to see what's new in lingerie. When you have undergarments as nice as anything you can buy from any one of the most talented designers, you may set yourself up for a little peek-a-boo! I'm running the risk of getting spoiled even more. Seriously, I see a slight deficit in my future. When it comes to the selection, superb! The style, mmhhh, mmhhh, mmhhh! Come on, take a peek!

Cristina Iaia Fan Collection

Argentovivo Ghirlande Collection

I p-r-o-m-i-s- e to be good this time. Besides tomorrow is another day and I can spend like I want to!!! Seriously, there are just some things that I'm addicted to in a good way!
