Style Evolution: Rihanna

February 8th, 2008 by Betty Scoop | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

Rihanna has only been on the music scene since 2005, and has produced 3 albums in that short time span. Her look for her first two albums was pretty average and typical. She looked like everyone else in the game, that is until her 3rd album dropped. With the release of Good Girl Gone Bad, Rihanna debuted her edgy new look, that made as many waves as her hit song Umbrella. So here is a look back at Rihanna’s style evolution.

February 1st, 2008 by Betty Scoop | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

Rihanna kicked off the launch of “Fashion Against AIDS” yesterday. She along with other celebrities like Timbaland and Good Charlotte have teamed up with H&M and Designers Against AIDS to launch “Fashion Against AIDS”. This clothing collection is for men and women and will be comprised of T-shirts, tank tops, and hooded sweaters.
The goal is to spread awareness about HIV/AIDS. The “Fashion Against AIDS” collection will be available at H&M’s Divided departments starting February 2008. This girl just has her hand in everything these days. I am so not mad at that.

GQ’s Best Menswear Fall 2008 Collections

January 31st, 2008 by Betty Scoop | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

GQ & CFDA Presented The Best New Menswear Designers in America & Their Fall 2008 Collections last night in New York City. Check out some of the looks


I absolutely love Designer Michael Kors..


First let me start by saying I adore Andre 3000 and I like everything he has on just not all together. Perhaps if he had a horsey and a mallet I’d feel better about this ensemble.


Ahh that’s better….Polo anyone?

Petra Nemcova’s Topless Rampage Jean Ad

January 30th, 2008 by Betty Scoop | 1 Comment | Filed in Uncategorized

28 year old supermodel Petra Nemcova shows off her “skinny” genes in Rampage’s new spring ad campaign. She looks great in this ad, but why do I have this sudden desire knock Petra over and curl up on that furry ultra cozy looking chair? I probably wouldn’t even need a blankey

Time to Get Down with the Get Down: Project Runway Final 6

January 24th, 2008 by Betty Scoop | 1 Comment | Filed in Uncategorized

We are getting that much closer to Bryant Park. We are down to the final 6, Vitoria was voted out last night for her sad creation of a denim trench coat. And much to our teary eyed surprised Ricky actually won the challenge. Now I must admit, that I have wanted Ricky out since the prom challenge. However, I did feel bad for him when he broke down crying for the billionth time, because he felt the other designers did not respect his talent (and rightfully so), but I was happy he won. With that being said I hope he goes next week, because I can’t take anymore of his tears. My 15 month old niece cries less then him. …but carrying on lets look at the best and worst looks of the seasons

The best looks of the season

Hands down the hottest look of the season!

The worst God awful looks of the season

This look was so horrendous. I can’t believe it came from Christian’s hands. Poor Maddy.
The worst of the worst.

The Gordon Gartrell collection.


What in the hell?

My Prediction for Bryant Park

Although I really want to see Sweet P knock Rami out of the finals, I have a feeling that he and all of his drapery are gonna make it to the end. I also will be very shocked if Christian the Diva, and Jillian don’t make it to the end. Stay tuned for more Project Runway updates.

Brad Pitt’s New Jeans Ad

January 23rd, 2008 by Betty Scoop | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

Brad Pitt’s new ad for Edwin Jeans is taking the term “skinny jeans” literally. Is it me or does he look a lot thinner and younger than he actually is? My psychic sinew is telling me this pic is photoshopped with Brad’s body on top and Angelina’s on the bottom.

The Hottest and Coldest looks of the week

January 19th, 2008 by Betty Scoop | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

Ring the alarm, these stars are smokin‘…These are the hottest looks of the week.

Rocking YSL, Salma Hayek looked absolutely gorgeous on her mommy’s day out.
Never a disappointment, Kerry Washington had jaws dropping on the red carpet at the BET Honors. She makes it look so easy.

Sarah Michelle Gellar came out of the shadows and dazzled in this Temperley London gown.

Fergie is ready for the jet way. She rocked this fabulous ensemble on a flight back to L.A. Now that’s the way to travel.

My girl Rachel Bilson looked stunning as usual in this ivory Dior gown.

Styles Warming Up: These celebs are stepping their fashion game up.

My fellow hometowner Keyshia Cole looked beautiful at the BET Honors. As her star is rising and thankfully so is her style.

Ms. Banks has found her stylist. Hallelujah! Although I am not a huge fan of feathers, Tyra looked quite breath taking on the red carpet at the BET Honors.

Styles Below Zero Degrees: These stars just can’t get it together.

Paris Hilton stole Rico Suave’s shirt in an attempt to steal Gwen Stefani’s style. Please give them both back…Now!

Beyonce, Beyonce, Beyonce… this coat is too shiny, and much too small for your Bootylicious body. Is that Solange’s coat you’re wearing?

Actress Sanaa Lathan is straight out of the JC Penny’s lady’s who munch department.

Poor Brandy is so desperate for attention she skinned her dogs and made a pair of boots. Buck up Brandy, I’m sure your 5th or 6th album will do well.
Erykah BaduWTF dude. Please tell me you were high when you got ready this morning.

Chanel Shhmel, this look is awful from head to toe.

Fashionista in the making:

Little Coco is obviously the next Carrie Bradshaw in this fairytale princess dress and white sneakers. Work it Coco!

This weeks hottest and coldest looks

January 11th, 2008 by Betty Scoop | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

I’m talking hotter than Vegas in the Summer.

Star of Cashmere Mafia, Lucy Liu looking drop dead gorgeous in this Alexander McQueen dress.

Katie Holmes rocked Armani at the premiere of her movie ” Mad Money”with a sexy back.

Queen Latifah looked her royal self in Pamella Roland at the ” Mad Money” premiere.

Drew Barrymore looked amazing while strutting her stuff in this Gucci Dress and Christian Louboutin pumps.


Singer Cassie looked dangerously sexy in a skin tight leather dress, with ultra dramatic stand up collar.

These looks are far from Hot, I’m talking North Pole.

Paris Hilton with her flavor of the week looking like she hasn’t bathed or brushed her teeth in a few days.

By the looks of this outfit Kelis is too Bossy to take good fashion advice.

Kim Cattrell made a very bad decision when she walked out of the house in this 50’s inspired bikini. What would Samantha say?

Repeat offenders:Lilo is really “working” this mod street walker look.

…And she just flat out refuses to wear pants these days. I just want to tell her “pst… I know you were in rehab, but leggins are out.”

Before Amy cut off her beehive, she decided to go for the strung out junkie look one last time.

…And now with her newly dyed blond hair, she is channeling Lucille Ball on crack.
