Musaak Minute - Rachel Ferguson

I'd like to say that one day when this young lady becomes famous, that I may have had something to do with it. I got to meet Rachel Ferguson the other day when I was shopping, she's really cool and has fabulous style. This pop/rock/powerpop singer/songwriter has a new song out called 'Joshua', and if you live in any of the places listed below I definitely encourage you to call in the radio station and request her song.


If you wanna check out more of Rachel's music, and get to know her, check out her MySpace

At Least 15spf...

Brad Pitt. I've never taken any interest in him until lately. He's quite the stylish bloke isn't he? I'm digging this new found slickmeister look of his. He's what they say, a Filf. (milf-->filf, why not?) So all men, take note. (pic, courtesy of Perez Hilton) So if you are heavy in the wallet, I definitely encourage to go into Hugo Boss, and get a fabulous suit and some of those fabulous sunglasses. Reasonably though, I'm sure you can find something cheaper and similar at an affordable store. (I always get intimidated when I walk into Hugo Boss, it's like they can tell I bought my shirt on sale)

Oh, and it's getting hot outside and the UV is high. So be safe and protect your skin.

Women Have Needs

They're everywhere. Remember from the Marc Jacobs spring 2007 collection the reoccurring themes of huge rhinestones on accessories and clothing. Well because they were so obviously fabulous, stores have adapted their own style of it. Whether it's a handbag or a pair of shorts. But I have to get a bag/or head wear of some kind soon, LIKE NOW. They're much too fabulous to pass up, and a model in my fashion show got one to wear in to, so I think I may get.

I Can See Clearly Now

I was browsing style.com today and noticed that Style Hunter had one a little special on fashionable nerd like glasses. Though I don't need any aid for my vision, I've always enjoyed glasses, sunglasses or glasses that help you vision ability (even if I don't need them) I am attracted to glasses that make a statement, and are not discreet. I want them to be big, fun, and noticeable. I only have one pair of sunglasses right now, and I do want get my hands on another pair shortly, along with all the other things on my 'NEED to get!' list. Here are few specs that have caught my attention.

I love these pair of Marc Jacobs ones. They're white, bold, and thick. Quite fabulous indeed.
These Tommy Helfiger ones are just quite the statement, if I do say so myself. Although you don't get a close up of the glasses, you get the idea.Lately I've been having a nack with stuff with some bling or rhinestones on them. Maybe it's my inner little girl, or maybe I'm like a bird attracted to stuff that are shinny. But these Fendi sunglasses have really caught my attention.
She's just so precious ain't she? Kate Young is one of best persons I've seen pulling off these thick black rimmed glasses. Fabulous aren't they?

Once again, you don't really get to see the glasses close up. But you can get the idea. I like how they're round, black and simple. But with the contrast in the outfit, and their size. They are definitely the focal point of the outfit.

These Prada glasses strongly resemble those to one my friends. She recently got them, and she looks great with them. I like how they're simple, but it's not like their trying to hide the fact that they have glasses by having no frame or a thin one. It's a bold frame, and it's a proud frame. haha.

Hottie Nots

I received an email today with an new product called 'hottiedots' This model called Miki Lamese use to always draw little moles on her face or body. But NOW she has created the tackiest thing since AE graphic tees....drum roll please...... a stick on moll that you stick on to any part of your body, and simply remove it when you choose to. I simply find the whole concept of this product funny and pathetic. I mean think about it, you're going to have a fake mole(beauty mark if you will) on you that's going to look shiny. And what happens when it starts to come off? It would be quite amusing to see. The way I see it, if you really really want a mole somewhere, just get one tattooed.
What do you guys think? Fabulous or Fugly?

God Feist is so cool, and I love her, and its so fantastic that Feist is finally coming out with a new album. Her highly anticipated album called "The Reminder" is being released May 1st.

Bolder, Brighter, Beautiful

I know you've missed me and I'm sorry for the lack of posting, a mix of being too busy with school & the fashion show, and slight laziness, is the cause. But now that I'm in the library at school, I'm suppose to be working on my project, but I've decided to squeeze in some time to post.
Anyways onto fashion, I'm really into bold, bright prints right now. They're quite fabulous and fun, and you always stand out in a crowd. Hopefully you like these pieces that I've simply been oozing over, and you can ooze over them too.

Walking On Stilts


trutting down a runway in 4 and half inch heels wouldn't be quite a risk for most people, other than models. So what? Walking in high heels is a task that some of us haven't completely been able to master yet. And that's where I come in, I'm gonna give some tips and pointers so you can be also be gracefully walking in those monstrous high heels of shoes you have. Because they're is nothing worst and unpoise than someone walking like a zombie in heels.

1.Crawling Before Walking: Take out those killer high heels of you and just practice standing straight in them. Then try some simple moves like walking side to side, back and forth. Once you've got that down you're ready to start walking.

2.When walking in heels step with your heel down first, then let the sole follow quickly and smoothly. Make your toes are also pointed straight and you are standing up straight, keep you legs somewhat closer than normal.

3.Remember, the most important thing is to be relaxed, this way you won't be so stiff and your knees can bend somewhat and you don't look like your stomping while walking.

4. Of course you should be conscious when first walking in heels, and so start off slow, with short walks, etc... then once your confidence has grown, you can bloom into a great strutter.

5. Mount Everest: Stairs can be just as challenging in heels, as climbing a mountain for some. Always try to be as closest to the railing as possible, this will ensure you have something to grab onto if your about to fall. When walking up stairs make your heel and sole touch the ground (a sturdy position) When going down, you should walk down with just your soles touching the stairs (if you don't you may walk down hardly, looks like stomping)


*** Important ***


1. You should try to avoid wearing heels while driving, you'll have less control over the pedals, and you may ruin your heels. Just have a pair of sneakers, or flats in your trunk just in case.


2. Baby Steps is key. Start off with a lower height in a heel. (i.e: a kitten heel, 2 inch heel) or instead of a pointy heel, go with something with a little more.

3. If you plan on going dancing, make sure you're able to in your shoes of choice. Practice in them and see how you do. Also make sure they are comfortable.

4. Don't walk in deep puddles, mud, soft ground , etc... Your heel may sink in the ground, or you may slip on wet or icy surfaces.

5. Avoid backless shoes at first. Go with something with all around support.
