kanye’s favorite fashion house louis vuitton launches a new bag
12.10.08
Louis Vuitton’s SC bag named after and designed by director Sofia Coppola is a remake of the classic duffel bag scaled down to an everyday bag. “I didn’t want it too slouchy or too structured and definitely not black — people wear so much black that it’s nice to have a bag that’s a different color,” Coppola states in an issue of The New York Times Style Magazine. She also designed a small envelope clutch and a pair of sandals.
It’s also reported that Kanye “Louis Vuitton Don” West is planning to intern for the fashion house.

Beyoncé upgrades from a Hyundai to a Cadillac with new Billboard Mag Cover
11.3.08
No one knows what the photo editors over at Essence were thinking when they released those awful photos of Beyoncé, who appeared on the cover of their November issue. But the starlet pivoted 360-degrees on Billboard November 8th issue, which hits stands this Thursday. The Essence article lures you with the title that B breaks her silence on marriage to Jay-Z, but the photo shoot of her clad in Prada, Chloë and Ferragamo leaves a lot to be desired. If I am being too hard on Beyoncé, holla at ya girl.

Kanye’s New Look
10.24.08
With the release of his fourth album, 808’s & Heartbreak, set to drop on November 25th, megastar Kanye West has shifted gears with his music and his image. Leaving behind his self-coined nickname of the “Louis Vuitton Don”, he has decided to usher in a new wave of nerd chic (which I’m guessing will accompany his latest sound). The promo pics, shot by Willy Vanderperre, has West standing as a mannequin with a blank or naked expression- dressed almost like Pee Wee Herman. At his album listening party, West stated that “it’s time to deliver ideas in the most naked form possible”. With this new definition of “preppy” mixed with his love for the arts, Kanye’s 808’s & Heartbreak has everyone’s ears to the ground, waiting to hear what this mastermind has cooked up in his quirky kitchen.

Who Killed It?: Beyonce vs. Jennifer Lopez
09.18.08
Icon-in-the-making Beyonce was spotted at the 2008 New Yorkers for Children event this past week in a dress that almost every A-list celebrity has been caught in. The Pigalle Wool Dress from rm by Roland Mouret has been favored by many- including Latin sensation Jennifer Lopez who donned the dress at Marc Jacob’s fashion show in New York. Lets see who killed it:
Beyonce- What I loved about Beyonce’s look (and no other celeb that has worn this dress did this) is that she took the hem of the dress up a couple of inches, which caused for more leg to show and made the dress a lot more sexy without taking away from the design. Plus the fact that she (or shall I dare say her stylist) added a little edge to such a minimal dress by adding metallic hardware to her accessories. Beyonce is definitely stepping out of her “safe shell” when it comes to her style.
Verdict: Fire!
Jennifer Lopez: J.Lo looked very elegant in the winter white version of the Pigalle dress and paired it with a simple black pump and bag. And although she followed my motto “less is more” I think her look is missing something- maybe she should have used a pop of color on the shoe and bag, perhaps deep burgundy?
Verdict: Killed it
Maybe you have plenty of money to burn and want to achieve Beyonce’s look…Here’s how to do it:
