Three.

My sweets, I have been M.I.A. as of late and for that, I sincerely apologize.  I've been searching high & low for inspiration but alas, it is nowhere to be found.  It feels as though I've been non-stop working, or staying busy with this, that & the other thing. *le sigh*  

Anywho, I wanted to share three lovely things that have captured what little is left of my attention recently.  

1. My mama pie gifted me with this book for my birthday, and it's absolutely wonderful!  As a fashion junkie, I've read countless styling books and wannabe how-to's of the wardrobe world, but every other book seems to fall short.  This book, (written by the lovely creators of Who What Wear,) features gorgeously current yet essential pieces and styling advice that would make The Olsen twinsies blush...or at least think twice about their hobo/boho hot-ass-mess-ness.

2. GAGA.  Need I say more?  Wow, guys...I am so beyond impressed with our Lady's third album.  At first, I was honestly turned off by the all too familiar club pump beats, but after a few playbacks I realized that this was no ordinary record.  Every song has its own unique personality and stands out among the rest.  One might assume Gagaloo has chosen quantity over quality with Born This Way, since there are 17 tracks.  But I genuinely love every song; no favorites.  Errr.... Bloody Mary, Government Hooker, Fashion of His Love.  Whaaa? It's amazeballs, truly.

3. Indie actress and folk songstress extraordinaire Zooey Deschanel has created another soon-to-be cult phenomenon, Hello Giggles. It is "the ultimate entertainment destination for smart, independent and creative females."  Translation: my holy place. Head on over for your daily dose of inspiration, cuteness, and duh...giggles.

Needless to say, I haven't had much time to utilize my mad photography skillz, but I swear I'm on that task like white on rice.  Patience is a virtue, little love bugs.  Cross my heart, I foresee many goodies in the near future.  Stay tuned.

Who's That Chick?

Hot damn.  I just can't can't enough of Ri Ri these days; she plays up her unique persona with these wildly daring outfits and God love her for it.  Even if she isn't always my personal style muse, her attitude just screams "fuck it! you don't pay my bills."  This, my friends, is a motto I can live by.  I've developed somewhat of a borderline stalker crush on Mizz Ri as of late, ever since the latest issue of Vogue hit the stands.  The hair, the makeup, the flirty playfulness, the fun little details, everything!  I think what I love most about her is that she still manages to be cute while still oozing sexiness.  And she has that air about her that lets you know she'd be a super cool chick to chill with, too.  love. Love. LOVE. 

Oh, Gagaloo.

So, as some may know i'm a pretty huge GaGa fan...that is, until this past weekend. First off, I highly anticipated the release of Born This Way, which sooo did not tickle my fancy. I was one of those nerds who pre-ordered the album through Target to get a free download of the song first thing on Friday morning. With baited breath, I pressed play and listened excitedly. WRONG. It really just sounds like she's trying too hard to be "out there," and I know this is GaGa we're talking about, but still...She has done better, most def.

Now, let's talk Grammy's. I'm just...over it. Like, I get it, you're different, you're unique. But seriously your new bone structure freaks me out and why are you trying so hard to look like Courtney Love circa 1998?? Hot. Mess.

Please don't disappoint with the remainder of your album. I mean it.

Holy Ferosh.

Our Lady

Beyonce

Hot diggity! I almost passed out when I saw this video. I am an absolute DIEHARD GaGa fan and this shizz just blew my mind! GaGa & Beyonce collaborated to create an amazing song that I already liked, but now I can't live without it! The video is out of this world...I loved the can rollers, police tape suit, butch security guards, everything!!! I especially loved the Tarantino style and Pu$*y Waggon reference. Why can't all videos be this delish...and ORIGINAL!

Wowza.

Ummm...Rihanna's new Rude Boy video is pretty badass, by the way.
