Sade Performs In London




Sade returns for her first live tour in a decade! The singer performed at O2 Arena in London tonight. I just get shivers down my spine when I think about this woman's stunning voice on stage. She is what a TRUE singer is all about. How can someone sound even better live?

I can still kick myself for not buying tickets for the August 5th show in Chicago because I thought I was going out of town that weekend but the event I was going to has been cancel and now I will just sit here weeping all day because I will miss the greatest concert of the decade!

The songstress wore an amazing black and sheer adorned with a leather belt and cuffs ensemble. I was surprise to see the "Queen" looking sooo hip at 50!

She completed her look with fabulous black strappy heels.

"Braxton Family Values" Reunion




My girls and I took time out from eating and drinking(mostly drinking) on Saturday to watch a marathon of "Braxton Family Values" and we had the greatest time ever. I love those girls especially Tamar crazy self. All she wants to do is dress sexy and drop it like its hot!

Toni Braxton looks great in her nude wrapped full sleeves dress paired with gray suede heels.

I do prefer her with shorter hair. She just never seems to get her weave right.


Tamar Braxton's husband( she knows she only marry him for his money) will probably kill her for wearing this because everything is hanging out!

She rocked a sexy tuxedo shorts ensemble but she could had lost the cheesy red rose. I am not a fan of her black and white booties.

I am also not a fan of her weave, again it's just too much but I do however like her make-up.


Next to Toni, I think Trina Braxton is the prettiest. She tends not to over do it with her clothes and weave.

The singer rocked a cute animal print dress but I am not feeling those blah shoes. Where is my pop 0f color?

I see she has "two new editions" added to her body!


My cousin swear Towanda Braxton is not their sister! She believes Poppa Braxton did a little creeping.

She looks great in her purple cut-out dress paired with purple metallic heels but her gold chain necklace was just an overkill.

I never cared for her hair nor make-up and this occasion is no exception.


I was delighted to see Traci Braxton looking like their sister instead of their grandmother!

She looks pretty in her melon cut-out sleeves dress paired with metallic heels.

She and Tamar do however go a little crazy with the concealer under their eyes.

Michelle Obama In Ralph Lauren



Ralph Lauren Fall 2011

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama hosted a Dinner for Queen Elizabeth at the Winfield House in London.

Michelle looked stunning as always in her black and satin Ralph Lauren off-the-shoulders gown.

I will kill everyone in my path for her outstanding Tom Binns statement necklace and bracelet!

An elegant up-do and flawless make-up completed her magnificent look.

"American Idol 2011" Finale


I am extremely delighted that my boy Scotty won American Idol! I loved that kid and his deep country voice was simply golden. I appreciate the fact that he thank the Lord first when he won!

Jennifer Lopez gave us a fashionable and wonderful season this year. I have to admit that I was a little skeptical about her chemistry with Steven Tyler and good old Randy Jackson at first but they actually worked out perfectly.

I still miss my Simon Cowell but we will see him soon on "X Factor" and thank God the untalented Cheryl Cole was replaced by Nicole Scherzinger from the Pussycat Dolls.

JLo looked fabulous in her gold sparkly nude Micheal Kors jumpsuit.

I am looooving her messy curly hair two-tone hair. Ciara needs to take notes.

She completed her look with gold Gucci sandals.


Carrie Underwood showed her tone sexy legs in her sequined geometric Lorena Sarbu sheath dress.

It's amazing when Hollywood gets a hold of you. When Carrie first appeared on American Idol on season 4 back in 2005, she was a little plump unfashionable country girl but now she rocking hot designer dresses and has a body of death!

The country singer wore an amazing pair of embellished Sergio Rossi peep-toe slingback platforms.

"The Hangover Part II" Premiere

Ciara always have to show off her fabulous figure. This time the singer wore a white Cushnie et ochs rise and fall dress.

At first I wasn't too crazy about this look but she manages to pull it off well.

I am not fond of her two-tone bangs because it just looks sooo cheap.

Sanaa Lathan looks amazing in her black studded one-shouldered Malandrino dress.

Soft curls and black sandals completed her look.



Selita Ebanks opted for a more romantic vibe in her Rebecca Taylor lace and printed ensemble.

I admit that she looks like an extra on "Little House On the Prairie" but she still looks soft and sweet.

A braided up-do and nude peep-toe sandals completed her look.

Berlin Premiere


Jamie Chung looks sexy as ever in her ivory thigh-high split Rachel Roy asymmetric neckline dress. The actress attended the Berlin premiere.

The actress finished her look with a chic up-do, gorgeous turquoise earrings and metallic strappy Jimmy Choo sandals.


Rihanna On The "Today Show"



Norma Kamali Midriff Top

I had a ball in Philly with my girls and then I had to come back to witness this foolishness! Why can't Rihanna, Brittany Spears or Lady GaGa keep their damn clothes on?

Rihanna performed on the "Today Show" and she actually wore this skimpy ensemble. I thought it was a family show?

The singer(I use that word very loosely) rocked a striped electric blue and black Norma Kamali long sleeved sweater which I think is beyond cute with the striped wide-leg high-waist pants. She could had rocked the shorts version and looked more presentable.

I know she is performing on stage but her black Louis Vuitton brief shorts, fishnet stockings and gold chain belt is entirely too much going on!

The singer's hair is also a hot curly mess. Just when I thought Rihanna was on the classy road, she makes a detour to tacky-ville!

Strong Handshake Signs of Long Age

   London, shake hands when ordinary people do stay in touch, meet colleagues or completes an interview. Apparently handshake can also be a clue a person live longer or not.

Scientists from University College London said that power when people shake hands can be a clue how long someone will live or age.

Researchers match parents balance, grip strength and ability to get up from a chair against the risk of premature death. Someone who can do well, probably could live longer. The results are reported in the British Medical Journal (BMJ).

This study combined with more than 30 previous studies involving tens of thousands of people who see a person's physical abilities and death. Most of the participants involved more than 60 years old, but still living at home.

The researchers found that mortality during the study period about 67 percent higher in people who have the weakest grip strength. A similar pattern was found on other measures, that is the slowest person on foot 3 times more likely to die faster and the slower rise from a chair more than twice as likely to die.

Despite the weakness that comes can be caused by disease or health factors that decrease, but the strength of shaking hands can show significant differences even in some people under the age of 60 years and have little or no health problems.

"One of the last part of the research conducted at the hospital found the difference in grip strength, even this is related to the duration of his stay in the hospital. This result is important enough," said Professor Avan Aihie Sayer, a geriatrician from Southampton University, as quoted by BBC News, Saturday (09/11/2010).

Professor Sayer suggests it takes some study to identify significant differences in strength of shaking hands on a young person. Since this could be a clue about the health problems in the future.

39th Annual FiFi Awards


Okay Halle Berry, I love you but I think this black cut-out Halston one-shouldered dress is a little bit too young for a 43 year old woman even if you have a body of death.

I just feel this is something either Beyonce or Rihanna could easily wear.

Halle is known for putting twenty year old girls to shame. Maybe I am jealous because I can't wear this sexy dress?


Thank you Jesus that Mary J. Blige decided to tone things down because she scared me at the 2011 Billboard Awards.

The singer is back to herself in this amazing ivory sequined dress.

I adore her ivory and gold accessories but I am still not crazy about her hair.


Fergie looks like a princess in her lemon embellished BCBGMaxAzria dress.

I loved the combination of her Judith Leiber blue clutch against the lemon hue.


I am off to have a fabulous time on the East Coast for Memorial Day weekend. I will see you guys on Tuesday. Have a fun and fashionable weekend!
