The Knowles' (and a Carter)

While Blue Ivy gets busy growing up she can rest assured Aunty Solange is keeping her fashion seat very warm! She's rightfully become a stylista to be reckoned with! I stumbled on these pics of her at a Tiffany's event held in NYC recently and literally drooled at the effortless colour blocking going on here....

 

On my midnight playlist...

My erratic sleeping pattern has me up and typing away at 02:16am, munching on the best crisps my tastebuds have ever been blessed by (Woolies Slow roast chicken and herb) and listening to the best playlist larrrk EVER! I just had to post this video though, Prince's Diamonds and Pearls, I've looped the bloody thing on my PC as well as my MP3 player  and my cellphone! My love for it is simply THAT deep

Get lost in the music...

Nykhor Paul for Mara Hoffman

If you haven't hopped on to the tribal print speed train, it's late for you my friend!!

Beautiful people....

One of those posts where I choose to pull the "Just because I can" card... (this is South Africa, it's my right!)

Alexa Chung for Superga SS2012

I'll be brave and offer this piece of useless information: I am a slave to this Italian brand's ad campaigns! Time and again they manage to woo my non-sneaker wearing self to Superga retailers with my plastic money in tow. It is also at this point my saner mind fails to kick in...rendering the war won: Superga 1- 0 Me

 



I'm ashamed to say they have me by my proverbial nuts once again...
*sigh*

Featuring: the Smith bratpack

Before all you Beliebers start doing cartwheels...this is a once-off post which features celeb kids! I usually find these (over-privileged) kids extremely annoying seeing as they usually act as the catalyst of a conversation my mom adores more than she does me: "why can't you be like them?"

But, even I, can mute my hatred for two minutes while I post this (I'm likely to regret this hasty  decision as soon as i click POST)!

 





There is something I found mildly addictive about these photos...this Jaden kid is fast becoming the object of my (often obsessive) affection! Those pixie ears simply WORK! And then there's Miss Willlow "Fireball" who, in the first pic, is acting as my hairspiration!

I'll say this once and once only: these kids have something i want BAAAAD...the X-factor!!!
Yeah, I said it, now a build a bridge!

Viola Davis...at her best!

Off late I've made it my personal mission to abolish inconsiderate grassroots whispers about so-called "ugly people" This is not to say I didn't have to put myself in check first before tackling this (mammoth) task!

First on my "Let's stop calling them Ugly" list is actress extraordinaire Viola Davis who you should know from productions like Tyler Perry's "Madea Goes to Jail" and the on-screen adaptation of New York's bestseller "Eat, Pray, Love".

 

I've been saying this about (and to) African women for the longest time: we look better with our OWN damned hair texture! The evidence lies below...

Once again dear beautiful black woman, take my advice: if Miss Davis can look like a supermodel sans a weave, what the frikaddel makes you can't o_0

My wish now: to see her stun those damn paparazzos on the red carpet with this neat do!
