I can't let you know how much I LOVE Kelis. I think she's fly as hell, I mean, I put her in the same vein as Aaliyah, if you know what I mean. But with that being said, we all have our moments of not-so greatness...  I love you Kel, but this is one of them...

Are you for real rockin a grey rat tail, with a irodescent pink lycra/patent leather suit, the McQueen shoes and some feather lashes..? Now each of those items are relatively fly on the individual level well minus the grey rat tail, but as a collective, its a no go my lady... 

More power to you for rockin some crazy ish... but I can't help but shake my head to this one.

much love, 

faris

Martha Davis is to die for...

I was tempted to post all of her SS10, but didn't want to overwhelm visually, check her collection out here

Relatively new to the fashion scene but no stranger to good design & the importance of quality construction Made in Italy at the same factories of Cholé and Chanel & Martha is a former industrial designer. Martha Davis never fails to twist contemporary styles into timeless treasures that make you feel elegant and fly simultaneously. Most definitely a designer to watch, so take a look now and keep your ears to the street, you'll be hearing about her soon.

luscious ladies

luscious ladies

I'm sure many of you have seen pictures from the upcoming V magazine's size issue due to hit stands Jan 14th. It is groundbreakingly marvelous and about time ladies that aren't scared to occasionally indulge in one of life's greatest pleasures, not to mention necessity of life, FOOD. 

Myself being on the opposite spectrum, standing just below the 5' but above 4' 11" and having played soccer all my life sculpting thick thighs and a round derrière, I longed for a "model" figure. Their clothes always drape well no worries on tummy or thigh cling-ege or stubby leg syndrome. I'm sure they've never had hem a pair of pants or duct tape their pants under until they bring 'em to a tailor, but that's always procrastinated until pants are essentially ruined. And when they want to check out their favorite artist perform live, they can see no getting stuck behind that stubborn sweaty man that towers - by a foot - and refuses to let you in front of him even though there is NO WAY you could ever block his lanky ass even with your 5" Platforms. ugh.

Ultimate envy. 

That is until J-Lo hit the scene as a Fly Girl and 'Shorty' became the subject of every top 40, club banger not that I actual listen to that ish on my own...only in the club and on the radio ;)  

Since then, I've learned about proportions when dressing, taught myself how to sew, and rush to the front if I can't get backstage.

Long story short, I LOVE what I've seen so far of V mag's size issue. 

Girls, embrace those curves, there's is nothing more feminine! And Shorties, just remember, we got more to choose from ;)

tutu

1st Grade Career Day: My older sister rummaged through my mom's suits and grabbed my pop's briefcase posing to be a lawyer. I opted for my florescent spandix, white leo and turquoise tutu. I wanted to be a ballerina soooo bad. Still kinda do but I'll settle for a tutu at this point. 

Trying to up my craftiness and looking at life through some serious budget goggles, I'm gonna try and DIM it -- do it myself. Wish me luck, I'll be sure to post some creation photos when I'm done.

keds x opening ceremony

keds x opening ceremony

Grandma Audrey gave me my first pair of keds. They were purple vinyl?... i think...  definitely purple though. Anyways, long story short, keds are an all time classic and oh so comfy. 

Right now, everyone seems to be creating their own rendition or collabing with the classic company. I just got a glance at these Opening Ceremony pony hair edition and thought they were pretty fly. I might just have to update my black canvas ones -- lord knows I need to with all those scuff marks.

much love,

MISS BADU

MISS BADU

Apologies for the poor image. I was limited to my iphone and most likely shaking from excitement. But I had to share it, last night I saw ERYKAH BADU!!!

My adoration for her is well known. I think all my closest girlfriends from high school know the ENTIRE Mama's Gun album as it was the only tape I owned (that is after D'angelo's Voodoo was found smashed on the street outside my house -- whoops).

Anyways, beats were BANGIN'!!! I sang along to every classic cut and she sneak peeked her new Cannabinoids joints. Not to mention mama was rockin some fly overalls with YSL black patent leather booties! (you can peep them if you look close... oooo weeee!)

I'm still excited and will be riding off that one for a minute.

much love, farisita
