on thursday i was booked last minute to do market for mariah carey's video, my love, with the dream. only one day to shop & do showroom appointments i was multi-tasking like crazy. 8pm & i'm still in the streets, i go to petit peton to see if they had any cute lace up boots and GASP they were shutting it down. they are moving to dubai & opening up shop there. they said they may come back to the

although i am living for miss thing on the left with the mcm jacket, the BLUE mcm briefcase and those ferosh (gucci?) boots, i'm disappointed at the fact that the fashion feeling is soooooo contrived in this photo.

if you all remember, a few months ago i styled a look book for my favorite scratch-n-sniff tees by cream of the crop.just in time for valentine's day, designer mika hatsushima has collaborated with downtown designer-cum-boutique owner charlotte ronson on this jelly bean scented love me tee.

not too long ago i received some skin care products from YBF (Your Best Face). nowadays, us young folk are more aware of the signs of aging and we're more proactive about starting an anti-age skin care regimen at a younger age. sure, its important to use sunscreens and a good moisturizer in the teen years to the twenties, but with enviromental elements constantly changing we must do more for

today i had siggi's icelandic style skyr strained non-fat yogurt in the orange & ginger flavor. sweetened with agave sweetner, i loooved this yogurt because it was a bit bitter, tasting like plain yogurt. the orange & ginger weren't overwhelming. i can't wait to try the other flavors!

so you thought i was gonna post about what i thought about the golden globes. but instead i decided to do a yogurt taste test this week because i was undecided at fairway over the weekend.today i tried redwood hill farm's strawberry goat milk yogurt. the goat milk gives it a lighter consistency and the strawberry is sweetened by honey, which is like a special uninvited guest. i'm dying to try the

yesterday i attended the press conference of the launch of the newest sneaker in the jordan series, the air jordan '09. note that this isn't the jordan 24. being that michael jordan used the iconic number of 23, he has decided to begin a new era by beginning a new series with '09, instead of numbering this sneaker the 24.i find these to be a little more athletic than lifestyle. but they have an

over the summer, i styled a fashion advertorial for vibe prodigy magazine via the project 2050 agency. i keke off of putting things together that you wouldn't normally think of, but look super cute. depending on the angle of the shot selected for the layout, you fail to see the little details that will turn an outfit out.the concept of the shoot was for the kids to jump on this huge trampoline &

now that the holidays are amongst us once again, i like to get somewhat festive and dig up holiday traditions. one of my favorites is coquito.according to wiki, Coquito is an eggnog-like alcoholic beverage that is traditionally served in Puerto Rico. Coquito is made with rum, eggs, coconut milk, coconut cream, sweet condensed milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. The drink is commonly associated

Russian Vogue is turning 10 this year, and although the magazine already threw an epic bash in Milan, it wouldn’t a birthday without a Moscow blowout. The magazine has asked the biggest design houses in the world to paint their own versions of nesting dolls or matreshkas. Houses like Marc Jacobs, YSL, Gucci, Oscar de la Renta, Versace, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Stella McCartney, and Giorgio Armani

I believe that America is spiraling into a panic. Up till November 4th the presidential election was on every Americans mind. It served as a major distraction for the American public. For you and me.For the past few months there has been economic disaster, one after another. My obsession over the election caused me to turn a def ear to the economic down turn.We are just about three weeks in

today i got the chance to hit up the reebok pop up shop on bowery & delancey. i was surprised that we were the only customers in the store the whole time. although they had a lot of styles that i've seen in other stores, they had a few i hadn't seen before. i ended up purchasing two pairs of sneakers that i can't wait to wear. definitely check out the store when you get a chance...

when i was in junior high, i was obsessed with the 90's supermodels. they were all so wonderfully beautiful. i wanted cindy crawford's eyebrows in the worst way, as well as being host of house of style. here is a layout she just shot for french vogue. inspiring! and for the sake of throwbacking, watch the fab eyebrows in full effect!

these last two weeks have been very busy for me. working on projects with chris brown & d woods while trying to fit in the daily to do's. while photographing looks i actually liked some of the product shots... on another note, i had to do a pickup yesterday & getting to the showroom was like climing mount everest. imagine doing this for six flights (sigh)...

last night i attended the absolut disco event by paper magazine with a fashion exhibition by patricia field. field is an amazing stylist and is so wonderfully colorful. i found the party a bit of a snooze, but the colorful crowd made it worth the guest appearance.

today i ran to the nail salon for a manicure/pedicure sos & my sister discouraged me from sticking to my neon nails color scheme. i couldn't find the color i wanted (and annoyed because i ALWAYS bring my own polish). somehow i found this vortex of dark indigo called russian navy by OPI. its navy blue with a metallic purple undertone. its a party on my nails. holla!

about a month ago, the bf put me on to the most slammin' smoothie i've ever had in my life, "the peanut berry project". i'm not much of a breakfast person so this is the perfect drink for me to start the day. i put 3 spoonfuls of frozen mixed berries, 1/2 a banana, a spoonful of peanut butter, another spoonful of flax seed, and 1/2 cup of rice milk (or 1 cup if i want more) and just mix it in the

last night my girl, and art director/artist extraordinaire, akisia grigsby invited me to an event celebrating the new book coming out this month definition: the art & design of hip hop . it was at the red bull space in downtown manhattan. chuck chillout & ad-rock from the beastie boys were behind the wheels. its great to see your peers and associates making such an impact on our

i will admit that i am the absolute worst when it comes to politics, world events, etc. watching the news depresses me because of all the shit that goes on a daily basis. maybe i should be ashamed of this but i registered to vote for the first time earlier this year (i guess better late than never). its crazy how bill clinton left office with a $4.5 trillion surplus and eight years later we're

the other night before i was about to head to the etnies editor dinner, one of my besties and hair stylist extraordinaire, yusef phoned me that he was in my neighborhood at a jasmine sullivan performance at the steven boutique in the lower east side. it was a packed house in there as everyone was excited to hear her performance. she sounded amazing, looked great, and had flawless hair thanks to

every season the crew from etnies makes a trip to new york to show fashion editors, stylists, and tastemakers their latest. i've dealt with them for many years & everyone on their end is super cool. always good times to be had with them. here's some pics of some of their latest product along with the editor dinner that took place at raoul's wednesday night.

today i got to check out the outsiders exhibit at 282 bowery off of east houston st. i enjoy art very much but wouldn't call myself an art snob. we took a bunch of pics, here are my faves...

mishka is one of my favorite "streetwear", "skater", whatever you want to classify it as brands. they make amazing selvege denim and i pull from them all the time for chris brown, etc (thanks annie!).for fashion week they had their anniversary party at the red bull space in soho. big ups to colt 45, the drink of choice for the evening after they ran out of red bull. had to drink it in homage of

...is a designer of latin descent that my girl johanna put me on to this season at fashion week. his tailoring is impeccable and his color palette drew my attention. designing both mens and womens, i will definitely be pulling from him soon.
