Beyonce steps it up

Today has been a really hot day and marked the beginning of this weeks heat wave. I don't mind the sun but there has to be breeze to make the temperature bearable. I also made the mistake of wearing tights today, so by 3:00pm my feet in particular felt like they were on fire!

On another note, recently I've noticed that Beyonce's style has gotten a lot better, with her outfit choices being a lot easier on the eyes then her other more questionable choices. Maybe she fired her mother as her stylist. Afterall Thierry Mugler has been designing Beyonce's stage outfits for her 'I am... Sasha Fierce' tour, maybe he gave her a few tips...



I really like this dress on her, its by Balmain of course (look at the shoulders) the print of the dress and all those embellishment is crazy but in a good way, the pattern looks irregular so it keeps the eye looking all over the dress, which is a good dtyle for girls who aren't stick thin. This dress does remind me of some of the outfits Beyonce used to go for more, but this ones more tasteful. No? Beyonce wore this to the 2009 BET Awards to pay tribute to Michael Jackson (RIP) she won best female R&B artist and thanked MJ during her speech.



I love the DVF bag in the picture on the left its gorgeous, take a better look at it here. Beyonce also seems to be trying out jeggings (jeans and leggings). I'm not sure how I feel about them or how flattering they'll be, but they look good on her so it may be worth a try. Topshop have some here for a reasonable £20.00 and here in a more flattering pair of indigo treggings (trousers and leggings I assume). As for the dress on the right Oasis do very similar dresses, that I myself own, but you could also try Topshop or forever 21, or something along that line.

RIP MJ

I cannot believe that Michael Jackson died yesterday I'm in huge shock especially because myself and my entire family are huge fans. My mum and I along with some of her friends were in the process of buying tickets on wednesday and one of my uncles already bought some, so I know he'll be devasted.

I feel especially sorry for his 3 kids and I hope that the mother of the first 2 kids does not come forward and they can stay with MJ's family.

p.s. I will be posting later.

Trans genderal dressing at YSl

Comedian David Walliams of Little Britain fame was a guest on GMTV today and his new children’s book “The Boy in the Dress” sparked a few thoughts about men and women in each others clothing and how this has now become slightly more acceptable then in previous years.
Yesterdays Yves Saint Laurent Men's show picked up on this point and Stefano Pilati sent models down the runway in clothing typically seen as feminine, such as jumpsuits, vest tops and belted waists.

However, sharp, well tailored suits were featured on the catwalk, but a tailored blazer would be styled with a sometimes sheer vest top. Trousers remained well tailored but at one point were ‘ballooned’ shaped at the thigh.
Coats were also experimented with in boxy shapes and pleated edges, as well as the classic Trench Coat in a navy palette.

A few seasons ago the Turban trend emerged in women’s wear leaving any apprehensive. This trend was also featured in the YSL show and I am excited to see how many men will experiment with this trend alongside the jumpsuit and ‘Jesus Sandals’!

My personal favourite is the pleated jacket just because I love the design of the jacket. The pleats seem delicate and feminine and thats juxtaposed alongside the masculine structure of the jacket, which is executed perfectly.

I personally think that whether your male or female you should defintely check out this collection because Pilati's work is amazing no matter what your gender is.

Whitney Port

Whilst re-watching an episode of The City the other day, I noticed that Whitney has impeccable jewellery. Although I couldn't find pictures of my favourite pieces, this picture of Whitney pretty much sums up her style of accessories.

Here are a couple of pieces that I feel remind me of Whitney's style and are all available from Asos.com.

I think I love Whitney's style in general much more when she's in New York than her LA style, but thats mostly beacsue I'm not a huge fan of LA style. The second series of the City is currently in filming which im unashamedly waiting for, I find weirdly refreshing from the Hills, even though its bascially the same thing, and I actually don't care if its all made!

If I had to chose a favourite from the pieces above it would probable be the Elephant ring and the silver tinkerbell drop earrings.

Also I discovered today that Whitney, alongside Lauren and Heidi, has her own clothing line called Whitney Eve clothing. Whilst the collection is mind blowing and going to change your life, some of the clothes are cute and typical Whitney style e.g. very californian. You can check out Whitney's collection here.
