Queen of Diamonds
Elizabeth Taylor was born in London, England and lived an iconic lifestyle. She said many times she never wanted to be an actress, but was pushed by her mother into a career that made her millions of dollars. Elizabeth lived a much publicized yet private life including her eight marriages, several life-threatening illnesses, and decades as a social activist for AIDS. She was a two-time Oscar winner & one of Hollywood's most glamourous superstars. She passed away at the age of 79 of congested heart failure in Los Angeles, California.
"I'm a survivor- a living example of what people can go through and survive."
- Elizabeth Taylor

Only Girl In The World
This April, beautiful Barbadian Rihanna is work'n the 10th Annual Shape Issue of VOGUE. The stunning floral Chanel dress from the pre-fall 2011 collection looks gorgeous on her! And I love Rihanna's hair red especially when it's actually done. The huge soft curls are my favorite, definitely a plus! They make her look less Welcome to Wendy's, may I take your order & more Disney princess Ariel... Also this is her first cover for American VOGUE... Love it!
Born This Way

Eye Deals
With all the talk and influx of the latest trends, some women forget that their eyes can be the BEST accessory. Yes, we walk around in the highest heels, cutest clutches, dainty dresses, & sexy shades.... Yet it's more to it than meets the eye;-) While our body is a mere mannequin, the face is the ideal canvas!
There are always colors some women don't wear on their bodies simply because it may not be appealing to the body or skin tone. With eyeshadow palettes, the concepts of colors are endless. Sites like Eyeslipsface (e.l.f.), Ulta, and Sephora have great online deals with almost free shipping, depending on how much you throw in the bag! Make sure you check out the Limited Editions too!
Michelle Obama takes Brazil
During her five day tour through South America to build stronger trade relations between both countries, Michelle packed all the right items! She never cease to amaze me with her choice in clothing. She is effortlessly STUNNING! Her style is extremely impeccable and the way she carries herself makes her seamlessly ICONIC! In the photograph Mrs. Obama is jet setting in the Marc by Marc Jacobs "Simone" stripe dress and she is clearly on her game cause stripes are HUGE this season, literally & figuratively. I would say you could stop by Saks and purchase the same dress, but of course it is sold out. Why wouldn't it be -it's trendy, comfy, and the 1st Lady is rock'n it... DUHH! But, you can definitely mimic the look with these fab dresses at Asos.com one of my fav sites -beyond chic, Enjoy!
Loving Lanvin
What's better than a 5 1/4" STACKED wooden heel, 1" platform, sexy snakeskin or patent with a dainty ribbon?! Puzzled?... Shouldn't be. Lanvin presents "Puzzled", the ultimate wedge that compliments any dress or sailor pant this season. You can definitely dress them up or down with the right accessories and the perfect occasion. Priced at $1,120, you'd want to wear them over & over & OVER again lol
