MariaFrancescaPepe

While making my rounds online through magazine websites, misc. sites and blogs I stumbled across this designer and felt intrigued to see more so I followed the link provided and enjoyed the aesthetic that MariaFrancescaPepe provided for her S/S 2009 collection entitled Art-Brut 09. Make sure to get into their previous collections too.

Eartha Kitt 1927-2008

At the age of 81 many women only dream of doing some of the things that Ms. Eartha Kitt did in her life.Throughout the six decadent decades of her career, Kitt won two Emmys as well as several nominations for Tony and Grammy Awards for her abundant talent in singing, acting, and dancing. I was introduced to Eartha during a very awkard date in wich I was somewhat forced to watch old Batman movies in wich she played Cat Woman; But what really made me realize who she was and how much I enjoyed her purr of a voice was in 1992's Boomerang (Eddie Murphy & Grace Jones were in that movie too *Must-Watch*). Me and my best friend  say "Marcusss Darling....*whisper* I'm not wearing any panties".

And even though 81 sounds like a harsh age, beauty wise, time has treated her face and figure with the up most care and respect.

RIP Ms.Kitt

Metallic Madness

IT'S THE HOLIDAY SEASON! the only other time of year that there are constant, somewhat pointless parties going on, Fashion Weeks is that other time of year;  and I'm sure you've unfortunately seen some tragic excuse for a fashion savvy relative taking the holidays too literal and popping up at events with what seems to be TIN FOIL wrapped in a horrible shape on her body. Well this post hopefully fixes that problem. 

Designers have taken the liberty of providing us with options for those ever so boring holiday office parties and family gatherings...at least you'll be tipping while talking to Frank from accounting or Auntie Joe about her arthritis....YIKES!!!

Origami & the Pursuit of Perfection


This short animation produced by Mobano Origami made me want a pair of Asics

Work That

I can't with the first 2 seconds of the video that's how u know it's going to be an interesting one.
Nonetheless as usual Pharrell pooped out yet another poppin beat and this time it was for the ever so catchy Teriyaki Boys. I was looking forward to seeing Chris Brown considering he layed down vocals for this track but all wishes don't come true.
