    Chanel Iman is so beautiful...OMG, absolutely stunning! The young model was recently seen in New York City at a photoshoot rocking a very rocker chic look. The stylist paired a mini bodycon dress with a red leather moto jacket, quilted ankle booties, a sleek black bag, and silver jewelry! Her hair is flawless and so is the makeup. And ladies...this dress is super short but for some reason this chick makes this 'fit look so feminine, classy and sexy all at the same time. This is how you do it! Lol. You can wear this combo on a date, a night out with your girls or even if you just want to look fierce on a shopping trip by yourself! I've styled a look for less for you below. All items are very affordable too...just like I love them to be! What do you think of Chanel's NYC look!?! Don't forget to leave a comment!

    Jay-Z continues to push boundaries in support of his newly released Magna Carta Holy Grail album. The rapper-mogul has descended upon New York City’s Pace Gallery on Wednesday afternoon for a six-hour performance of “Picasso Baby” off his new solo LP. Serving as a life art piece performance, the moment draws inspiration from artist Marina Abramovic’s 2010 MoMA exhibition Marina Abramović: The Artist Is Present. Footage captured from the event will be used for an official music video, presumably directed by Mark Romanek (“99 Problems”) who co-ordinated the event along with Salon 94. Wale, Marina Abramovic, Judd Apatow, Jerry Saltz, George Condo, and other well-known figures in the art world are all in attendance. Watch below!!
    I loved this!!! His embrace with his fans/supporters was amazing!! Some artist that get to a certain level in their career, would have never done anything like this!! This just shows he's the same ol'jay..lol with much more money!!
