Presidential Swag

It's no secret that the Obama's have been a hot topic in the fashion circuit. So when I saw these photos of the Pres-elect on theybf.com, I just had to put them here.

The photos, which are in TIME magazine's person of the year issue, were taken when Obama was in his 20's. If these photos don't prove that Barack was just born with swag, I don't know what does.

Enjoy!

Out & About: Holiday Fun

Last night, I attended the annual Fashion Reporter holiday party co-sponsored by Land Rover and Toys for Tots at the Land Rover Manhattan Dealership.

The theme of the party was vintage Hollywood, and I think my friend Erika and I did a pretty good job with our lace and satin accented dresses.

The DJ was hot and the diverse crowd turned out to be pretty fashionable.

There were a few individuals who caught my eye. What do you think about this set??

Ah Ha!

The moment I saw this picture of Dawn (formerly of Danity Kane), I had to put it up!

A couple months ago I posted these gorgeous Dior cut out wedges that I was absolutely enamored with:

and gave a suggestion on how to pair them with opaque black tights and a cute, spirited little black dress.

Well, it seems Dawn must be reading my blog because she took a page right out of my book! Just look at the cute ensemble she rocked to Teyana Taylor's 18th B-Day party.

Kudos to Dawn for following some fab fashion advice!

Out & About

Last Wednesday evening I had the opportunity to attend a Complex Magazine party co-sponsored by G-Shock at the Mark Ecko Cut and Sew showroom.

The Patron and vodka was flowing, the muisc was pumping and the room was filled with fashionable people. One young lady's style caught my eye:

Her 'fit screamed urban sass. I loved her retro vibe, from the leather and chain earrings, to the vintage Fendi bag peeping out from the lower right of the picture. Turns out this stylish partygoer is also a jewelry designer. Check out her website http://www.cubannielinks.com/

Thanks to my party accomplice Aamira, I also ran into William from the CW show Stylista who turned out to have a lot more personality and spunk than was shown during his stint on the show.

I was also surprised to run into Dawn from the former Danity Kane and a few of the members from Day 26.

Dawn was sporting these adorable Louis Vuitton satin platform pumps that I just had to get a picture of:

I found these somewhat similar, CHEAPER versions on bebe.com

They're a little quirky, but a cute alternative way to do the super high heel and maintain a small level of comfort.

What do you all think??
