Artisanal LA

Hey Guys,

This weekend (October 23-24 from 11am-6pm) is Artisanal LA, so food lovers in Los Angeles, get excited! The event will be showcasing some of the most fresh and delicious local produce, bio-dynamic wine pairings, and locally grown cheeses. Yum! So make sure you go on an empty stomach! The event will be held in Downtown LA in the Cooper Building (9th & Los Angeles St.). Parking may be tricky (esp. on weekends)....so it's best to just park at a paying lot.

There will be giveaways, tote bags, workshops, chef demos, shopping, hosted drinks, beer tastings, and more! Pre-sale tickets are $10 online and $15 at the door.

Katy Perry & Serena Williams OPI Shattered Black Nail Polish

Something I'm totally stoked about...can't wait for this line!
(Last Featured: OPI Nail Polish in Black Shattered $9 will be available in stores in January)

Creation and all rights of this video go to OPI.

And speaking of nails....what do you all think about the new "Stiletto Nails" trend that has been sweeping the nation? To me, a slightly pointed nail tip doesn't seem to harmless. Like what Fergie is rocking below...

But to a certain degree....this would be my max length!

Wouldn't want it to be too sharp or long like claws (below). Just think about scratching an itch on your face...Ouch!

Looks of the Season

Some looks of the season...beads, femme military, fur, and camel.

Keira Knightley is simply stunning in this beaded Chanel dress for the London Film Festival.


The H&M Fall 2010 ad campaign shows off a much more feminine and toned-down military look.
Line Knitwear featured their collection, entitled ‘Time Traveller,’ during NY Fashion Week. This neutral/camel colored collection incorporates fine lines, shapes and textures, as it creatively pairs past and present fashion trends. In addition, other designers such as Prada, Gucci, and Michael Kors are sporting the camel look.

Faux fur is making another comeback...get the look Alessandra (below) by wearing a fur vest paired with more toned down and classic pieces.

Doppleganger Much?

Okay, so has everybody seen the new Vogue cover with Anne Hathaway? Doesn't she look a lot like Eva Mendes? So freaky....it doesn't even look like her....talk about massive photoshop!

Victoria Secret Fashion Show

It's that time of years girls....and guys that enjoy seeing gorgeous curvy ladies. ;P The Victoria Secret Fashion Show will be on Tuesday, November 30th at 10pm on CBS. Just in time for us girls to envy over all those flat tummies we see after we just finished gorging on delicious Thanksgiving feasts. The annual lingerie runway show in New York will have the lovely Victoria's Secret Angels Models: Adriana Lima, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Candice Swanepoel, Chanel Iman, and Erin Heatherton.

Just a heads up on what's what...Katy Perry and Akon will be this year's special guest performers. I'm totally looking forward to them both! And the special model this year that has been chosen to wear the exclusive million dollar diamond bra is none other than the stunning Adriana Lima.


Also one thing to note, the newly changed GAP logo has been changed back to the classic logo we all know. I guess things didn't work out...

The "New" GAP

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to bring to light about the change in the GAP logo sign. No longer will we be seeing the signature blue box and white colored font that we associate the company with. Instead, GAP has tried to modernize the logo with a new blue exo-box on its website along with black font. This transition went on without as much as a launch party to celebrate the newly created logo. If it were me, I would pick any chance to throw a nice big shindig! Instead, the switch was made quietly online. You're probably wondering why the sudden switch? Well, a potential reason could be due to the decline in sales over recent years. This could probably be a strategic move done by GAP in order to "freshen" up their brand that has slowly been getting lost beneath the sea of other name brands. By modifying the signature logo, they could gain a much wider range of consumers.

This logo change could backfire due to the unrecognizable and unfamiliar symbol. Or it could actually boost sales if the store decides to do further reconstruction by having the company go in another sort of new direction. Maybe they'll ditch the over-priced basic plain clothes for some more bold patterns and prints....we'll see. Only time can tell...
