03/16/2012 Here is a look at some of our favorite celebs sans PR, designer pretties and hours of hair and makeup. Most of us experienced some sort of an awkward phase (for me that was high school). It's nice to remember that they were once like you and I. Seriously Who could've guessed that the pudgy cheeked child above would turn out to be such a controversial beauty. Check out who inside... more

Fashion WIN or FAIL?: Starring Olivia From VH1's Love & HipHop

Fashion WIN or FAIL?: Starring Olivia From VH1’s Love & HipHop

03/15/2012  |  2 Comments

03/15/2012 Love & Hip-Hop's cast member Olivia stopped by 106 & Park to discuss what she's been up to musically (she has a single and a video out now titled "Walk Away") as well as her current cash cow Love & Hip Hop (she said there would be a 3rd season). I was recently reminded that sometimes my delivery can be quite harsh so I want to discuss Olivia's style choices via what is often referred to as a "Praise Sandwich". Head inside for more... more

WATCH VH1′ s Styled By June (Sneak Peek)

I give praise where it's due and flattery when I simply can't help it!! June Ambrose gets both from me because her artistry and panache (if you will) are tremendous and I'm eagerly anticipating her debut on VH1. Her show premieres this coming Monday, March 19th @ 9:30/8:30c. As you may know she made a name for herself in the fashion industry during the 1990s and she specializes in revitalizing her clients' style and ultimately their brand. I think this is a perfect time to ask if she could assist her fellow network mates (The ladies of Basketball Wives and to a lesser degree some of the ladies of Love & Hip Hop) with their style. Being that those chicks lack heavy in the fashion department. Anywho, Check out the super trailer for Styled By June above. In the sneak peek, the stylist works to revamp the images of Jaleel White, Da Brat, Aubrey O’Day, and Shanna Moakler. Will you be watching when the show debuts on March 19th? Watch the trailer now and then tune in this Monday, March 19th @ 9:30/8:30c. more

Shoes That Make You Say OMG!!: Starring Charlotte Olympia

03/14/2012 Like the ubiquitous “Red Bottoms” I can spot a Charlotte Olympia pump ANYWHERE! I simply look for that distinctive 2-inch platform and equally devastating price tag. I don’t think there are enough superlatives & adjectives to describe how I feel when I look at her collections but I can promise you that I swoon every time. I’m swooning now as I write this... Her shoes make me want to be irresponsible and do bad things like, skip a car payment or take out a second mortgage, even though I don’t own a home. LOL you get my drift. Click read more to peruse a few of my favorite looks from her Spring 2012 & Resort Collections. more

03/13/2012   Okay fine it's just orange but it's infinitely more fun to say, "Taaaangerine"!I am highlighting this color not just because it's awesome but also because since Pantone named it the color of the year, it's popped up everywhere. Many of my friends (the fashionably gifted as well as the fashionably challenged) shy away from colors this bright but that shouldn't be the case. It looks great on most skin tones & It's a great way to liven any wardrobe. In the above photo Kourtney Kardashian is sporting the daring color on her lips and nails. LOVE IT!! Let's take a look... more

03/12/2012 Does this image perpetuate negative stereotypes or is this simply artistic license? What are the first thoughts that come to mind when looking at this picture?? Probably NOT Vogue Italia "high fashion" editorial. Well then you would be mistaken because that's EXACTLY what this is. Head inside to read more and to see additional pics. more
