Amy Winehouse

Rightfully fashion tribute to my jazz queen the late Amy Winehouse. She'll be remembered and her "Valerie" & "Back to Black" will keep repeating in my iTunes that's for sure.

That beehive is unmistakable, that cat-eye, coal black liner, those heavy, wavy weave down to the side. There's no-one like her. You believe all those words, all those pain, all those sorrow that she cries in her songs. Like a friend, begging for a shoulder to cry, on your couch, opening up and telling you everything. Somehow, it's like you are the part of the stories -unwillingly.

Coco Rocha Chanel Pre-Fall 2008

Adriana Lima, LOVE Spring 2009.

Isabeli Fontana , VOGUE Paris, February 2008

Emmanuelle Alt 1st Vogue Paris. Amazonian princess, Gisele in sultry Italian Dolce & Gabbana

Emmanuelle Alt, noted ex fashion stylist turned Editor-in-Chief first Vogue Paris April issue cover. Interesting choice of seasoned supermodel Gisele Bundchen in a sexy and sultry Dolce & Gabbana lacey Spring 2011 collection. Taking the helm in replacement of Carine Roitfeld as Vogue Paris new Editor-in-chief, shot by Inez and Vinoodh in St. Barth’s with minimum make up and barely accessories, knowing Emmanuelle Alt minimalist-sleek-all-black personal style, the result is quite unexpected, far from everybody would imagine Emmanuelle first cover shot would be.

But, let us keep in mind that Gisele is always a safe choice and Dolce & Gabbana had really outdone themselves for Spring 2011 collection and taking the fashion world by storm, again. Easily proven as 2 more international Vogue (Spain & Germany) were putting the SAME white lace dress on their beautiful model Constance Jablonsk and Britt Maren respectively.

What say you?

The Rubinacci, Milano via The Sartorialist

I don't know why, but I want that tailored dark brown/black suit so bad. It's so sharp it can cut your fingers. That's why I don't buy off the rack suits because every person have different measurement and it goes by mili-centimeters. So get it right. The perfect fit will get you from "blah"..to "yeah" in 60 secs.

Everything is perfect and the color combinations are just gorgeous with a spark of bright canary yellow neck tie, lime green pocket square, light blue as a background canvas and red wine pair of suede shoes, it really is a statement piece!!

Victoria Beckham for Vogue Turkey August 2010 Edition

Victoria Beckham for Vogue Turkey August 2010 Edition. Photograph by Ellen von Unwerth. Spotting longer jet-black wavy locks sans famous lip pouts, she was heard quoting “I just love their avant-garde style” on wearing Turkish designer dresses for this editorial.

Wearing one of her all time favorite Loboutin shoes.

WIth 7 inches spiky Loboutin for Rodarte shoes

Gaga much??

Guess this one is from her own VB collection

Personally, she had a few great shots. Loving the purple mirror ball long dresses appropriate for casual MTV awards and that last long breezy flowy white dress with shoulder pads demand attention!! <--Only for those with sky high uber-confident that can pull it off!!

Oh My God.

"Oops! I haven't been posting! I have been thinking about posting, as I have literally a billion posts I want to write right now, which is odd because this resulted in me not posting at ALL!"

The Style Rookie's Tavi got my words.

Lara Stone.

She's been doing the model rounds for ten years, since she was 15, but says that even back when she was 16 and in Paris, drugs weren't a problem. "I'd already tried everything in Holland. Anyway, I never wanted to be that model on drugs, the sort who gives head for a line of coke."

She does, however, have a weak spot for food.
"If I could have the discipline to be super-skinny, I would be. I think of dieting, then I eat pizza. I'm a woman, and every woman wants to be skinnier — unfortunately."

But she doesn't mind going topless all the time for magazines.
"Everyone's seen them.  My girlfriends love them — they play with them!"

She's concerned about her future — she doesn't want to act or design.
"I lie in bed at night and worry about what comes next. I'm not sure I have any other talents."

And thinks she has men trouble.
"Men don't like me. I haven't been on a date for six months. I've just started a club with a girlfriend called the We Hate Men But We Can't Be Gay Club."

But she likes to be mean to men.
"I figure out what they hate most, and then I do lots and lots of that."

If she doesn't wear a designer, it may be because she hates them.
"I shouldn't be wearing these shoes. Because I hate the designer and never wear people I hate."

And don't get in her way at a show — one Belgian model now knows that.
"I kept saying 'Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me,' because I had to get to the catwalk, but she just kept posing. So I pushed her. It was only a few stairs."

Lara Stone in Vogue UK December 09. Love her even more!!
"Men don't like me. I haven't been on a date for six months. I've just started a club with a girlfriend called the We Hate Men But We Can't Be Gay Club."  <--- I can relate to that. =)
