Naomi Campbell and Channel Iman walk it out!

September 18th, 2008 by Karis Michelle | No Comments | Filed in fashion trends

The veteran and the rookie walked the catwalk side by side for the Fashion for Relief show looking wonderfully fabulous. The charity event which was organized and hosted by Campbell, raised over $100,000 for The White Ribbon Alliance, a charity that raises awareness for maternal mortality. This is the third annual Fashion for Relief event; in 2005 money was raised to help victims from Hurricane Katrina. It’s so nice to Naomi doing things other than boxing people up with her phone, good for her!

Oh Stylist Where Art thou?

August 14th, 2008 by Karis Michelle | No Comments | Filed in fashion trends

I really don’t know what goes through the minds of these celebrities. What posses them to wear such monstrosities in public, I can understand private, but public? NO! Is it the need for attention? Are they playing a practical joke on themselves? Or is it just plain old bad style?

 

Take Ashanti here. She looks Minnie Mouse’s slutty cousin Trampie Mouse. I can’t say WHY enough. But I will, WHY would you do that to yourself?

And here we have Miss Raven-Symoné, who looks like she was rummaging through a garage sale, at the home of a hooker from the 1980’s. But, seriously looking at this outfit I can’t even say anything mean about her, I just feel sorry for her. I think we need to take a moment of silence for her “outfit”.

Vogue Italia’s Historical July Issue

July 11th, 2008 by Karis Michelle | 1 Comment | Filed in Featured, fashion trends

The July issue of Vogue Italia features 150 pages of black models exclusively. This is a monumental and historical decision made by the editors of Vogue Italia. I for one think they should be applauded. What they are doing is just unheard of, considering there are usually just a few token specs of color sprinkled in the fashion spreads.

The Editor-In-Cheif Franca Sozzani said she was inspired by Barrack Obama’s historic presidential campaign. Her intention was to spark conversations about race, and to demonstrate that there is more to beauty than blonde, blue eyed Russian models. (Can I get an Amen!)

The issue features old and new pictures from famed photographer Steven Meisel. Some of the models featured are Tyra Banks, Naomi Campbell, Alek Wek, Liya Kebede, Sessilee Lopez, Jourdan Dunn, Iman, and plus size model Tocarra.

Hopefully other fashion editors will take a queue from Vogue Italia, and add more model diversity to their pages. Feast your eyes on these gorgeous women.

Ashlee goes Hippie Pregnancy Chic

July 2nd, 2008 by Karis Michelle | No Comments | Filed in fashion trends

Ashlee showed off her baby bump while running errands in LA . I guess after her hubby revealed to the world in Out magazine that he used to make out with dudes, she needed to channel some peace and love. Its cool Ash, I’m sure it was just a phase. Kinda like when guys are in prison, and they just need a cuddle buddy on those lonley nights. No biggie.

Ain’t That A Bitch…

June 16th, 2008 by Betty Scoop | No Comments | Filed in Celebrity Gossip, Internet News, fashion trends

The Queen of Mean, Leona Helmsley’s privileged pooch, Trouble may find herself at the pound. According to the NY Post, a judge damn near ripped the silver bone out of the 9 year old maltese’s mouth! The paper reports Trouble lost $10 million of her $12 million trust fund to charity after a judge signed off on a deal that gives the Helmsley’s disinherited grandchildren (o shall I say grand-man and woman…they’re like 40 and 37) $6 million. This really sucks doggy balls for Trouble whose living in Florida with some guy named Carl (who btw says 2 million should be enough for him her). Honestly I can see where this is going….I imagine a year from now Trouble will be in some pound matted and sweaterless……..Uh hold on I think Trouble’s trying to tell me something….

Me: What’s that Girl?…..

Trouble: (freshly groomed) Woof

Me: What?! Carl slipped and broke his crown on mutt kibble? Huh? and the overgrown “greedy grand-diggers” accidentally fell down the well? Oh no…so what does this mean for you Trouble?

Trouble: Woof …I’m still rich bitch!

Keyshia Cole’s Amazing New Look

June 13th, 2008 by Karis Michelle | 2 Comments | Filed in fashion trends

With a new hairdo and new smile, Keyshia Cole is looking unbelievable these days. Here she is at the Toyota and Essessence fashion party in Diane von Fürstenberg looking fabulous.

The Old Look

.

I didn’t hate the old hair or the old grill, she’s always been a cute girl. Wait, let me take that back I did hate the curly Salt-N-Pepa hair she’d been rocking prior to this look. Her new look on the other hand is sophisticated and polished . The dark hair, simple and pulled back is elegant, and the closed gap just softens her look all the way around. The chick’s is just FIIIIIRECE!

Sex and the City Premiers

May 28th, 2008 by Karis Michelle | No Comments | Filed in Celebrity Gossip, fashion trends

                                  

The Sex and the City movie premier was last night in New York City, and oh what a fashion extravaganza it was. There were some mishaps and some pleasant surprises. All in all it was a  shiny night, literary. Just look at the fabric on SJP and JHuds dress.

The movie’s stars Kim Cattrall, Kristen Davis, and Cynthia Nixon were all dolled up. With that being said, with the exception of SJP (who looked amazing), I’m not a fan of any of these looks. There is nothing spectacular about them. This is the Sex and the City premier for God sakes, what would there characters say?

Mary J and Lil Kim were among the many celebrities that attended the premier last night. They both look fabulous, although I must say I nearly fell over in my chair when I saw Lil Kim fully clothed and dare I say looking classy. Her look was my favorite of the night…. granted she is probably my favorite because she usually resembles something that was dragged out of a back alley in Vegas, but none the less she’s my favorite.

Which look did JHud work it better in?

May 28th, 2008 by Karis Michelle | 2 Comments | Filed in fashion trends

Jennifer Hudson wore this gold and black Peter Soren cocktaol frock on the red carpet, and then changed into this sexy black dress for the after party. Which so you prefer?
