Love Me Some Beyonce

I must be living under a rock?  It took me digging thru youtube on a rainy Saturday evening, sans hubby, to find out that my bestie-in-my-head had premiered three new videos?  C'mon, y'all should know by now, I ADORE me some Beyonce.  Like her or not (better nobody say nothing bad about Beyonce), other than Oprah, she's the hardest working woman in show business.

Sidebar:  Her sis Solange's style has been seriously giving me life these days! Is it just me?

I can't hear this song and not think about how she premiered a baby bump...sigh


Hmmmm, looks like she did some parts before pregnancy and some after???

 

What happened to Andre 3000?  I love the hair (mostly everyone) in this video

Versace for H&M

Is there any need to further this post?  The title says it all!  I had an OMG! moment when I first found out.  Versace is BOLD.  It's Bright, It's DARING (have you seen Donatella's face?).  Although the line is set to be sold in over 300 stores, what saddens me is that I'm not sure if any of the Philadelphia stores will see this collection.  Last year a friend and I went to check out Lanvin, got to the store and there was no Lanvin in site.  Good news though, this collection will be available online November 17.  If you head over to H&M.com, you can enter to win a trip to NYC for an exclusive viewing party.  I'm heading over there as soon as I finish typing this post.

"The collection for H&M is the essence of Versace. For the collaboration we've brought back from the archives, as well as from more recent collections, some of the icons of Versace, such as the bright prints, the Greek key and daring cuts. I can't wait to see how H&M's wide audience will make these pieces their own," says Donatella Versace. - c/o Vogue.co.uk

Want to see some of the pieces before it goes up on the H&M site?  Vogue has a preview HERE!

Winter Hair Part 1

I've been obsessed with wigs (ummm, before they became muey popular), for years now.  I think it's one of THE best ways to change up your style, length and/or color.  Wigs are also a great way to protect your hair from harsh winters (when rocked correctly).  Braids are another great alternative, but sometimes,I don't want to be in it for the long haul...lol  Anywho, I've been searching for a new wig for this winter and wanted to kind of stay away from the curly do's.  I have too many of those and just bought another one.  For this go round, I want something kinda straight with waves to it, since I've been missing my relaxed hair for a minute now.  I was thinking about purchasing this lace front GLS50 from FridayNightHair (mind you I purchased a wet-n-wavy from them last year and NEVER wore it...I'm a hotMESS.net), then came across this video from PhillyDiva19154.  SOLD!!!

There will be more protective styles this Winter, so stay tuned.

Vintage Thrift

I was suffering from a NASTY cold last week, hence my lack of posts.  By the weekend, I was a little better.  Enough to go shopping...lol  Here are two of the pieces I picked up at my local Salvation Army (I picked up a few blouses, not shown).   I love mixing high and low priced items.

Vintage Brown Leather Boots - there is a story behind these.  The boots were priced at $10 and I was more than willing to pay, since I've been looking for a pair of brown boots for FOREVER (so mad that I purchased a pair for $115 online, but they are returnable).  Anywho, I met a friend at the store and she was like NO WAY you're paying that price?!  Talk them down to $5!!!!!  I was too much of a punk, so she grabbed the boots from my hand, took them to the counter, came back to me and said 'They said give them $5.'  I should have gotten my friend's number.  She's my new bestie and I don't even know her name.  Needless to say I'm VERY happy.

There were so many beautiful bags to choose from on the particular day I went.  It's usually a hit or miss?  Not sure if this bag was leather and I didn't asked.  I just could not leave it in the store.  It was only $5, very well-made and very spacious. The straps are uber long, so I can wear it on my shoulders or cross-body.  SCORE on both items.  There was a FAB coat, that I had my eye on, but decided to wait for it to go half off (everyday a particular color is 50% off and Wednesdays most, if not all are half off). 

I love my round-the-way THRIFT store.

MAC's Posh Paradise, Fall Colour Collection and Style Driven Haul

This post is muey late, but...  I was invited to a MAC event mid September to preview new (now old...lol) collections that were coming out.  They called me on my anniversary and it just added an extra OOMPH to my day.  Anywho, my Ride-or-Die makeup friend Stephanie came with.  Check out the pics and the haul video.
