Is Lara Spencer an Angel?


Never have we had such a loyal black halo fan than Lara Spencer, host of 'The Insider.' She wears black halo pretty much on a weekly basis. Today I saw here on air in the geranium colored Jackie'O. I mean really, can her stomach be ANY flatter? It makes me wonder what is 'in-side-her?' (sorry, I had to)
God must be watching over her, because if you look closely there is a halo above her head? This makes me ask the question, can black halo make you look ungodly skinny and saint like? I think YES. BTW co-host Kris Jenner is also a huge fan of black halo, notice she does not have a halo like Lara!

Joey Showroom Launches DIWON






It is always fun to work with new brands. Especially when I can wear all of their clothes! So announcement #3 for the new year is: DIWON! A men's line out of L.A., the look is runway for today's budget. The collection has a full range of suits, woven shirts, knits, leathers and even shoes. Retails are amazing and the detailing like hand sewn suiting and glove leather jackets is terrific. Since they have not seen much of me this season in GUCCI and Balenciaga, it is comforting knowing that I have DIWON fall '09 to fill my closet.

You know it is chic if I would sport it!


Got cha with that tag! But seriously, people stop me on the street everyday asking me what I'm wearing, and where can they get my look (ok not that serious still). But I can't be everywhere at all times, so sometimes you will have to turn to reliable references like GENLUX for advise of where to buy what is hot. For instance, this month, MATT & NAT's JOBS vegan brief is on the A list of what to buy. I could not agree more! Not to brag, but this is the bag that I personally carry and it is the BEST. The vegan leather is rich in color, and super durable. Also I love to point out to admirers that MATT & NAT uses environmentally conscious materials like recycled water bottles to make the suede like lining. There are tons of nifty pockets and chunky hardware that make MATT & NAT great when traveling. You should open a new window on your browser and go to TOBI for more MATT & NAT bags!

Desprerate? I don't think so!


These days Eva Longoria-Parker ( I would never hyphenate my name) is looking doughty on Desperate Housewives. But off screen she still is the sexy firecracker that is always a fashion-do! In the Jan 5th STAR, she was the center of attention in Anne Leman's beautiful amethyst colored Najwa dress. Proof that even the hyphenated can still stop traffic.

COVER GIRL!


I know you saw it,read it, & lusted after it, but I knew long before you got your grimy little hands on it. . . black halo on the February COVER of LUCKY!
And 'MAMA MIA' does Amanda Syfried look stunning in the red three teared blouse. You are going to have to look hard to find this frock cause it SOLD OUT. Ahhhhh, the trials of being cover-worthy. BTW you might remember that Amanda was in one of my all time favorite movies, 'Mean Girls' long before becoming a cover model. Does that surprise you? Mean girls always end up on top!

Liala & Joey

Ok, here is announcement #2 for new year: Laila Azhar! The partnership of Laila and Joey Showroom, was meant to be! The look is sexy, sophisticated with a edge of glamour. Laila is as good at construction as she is at draping, the result is a home run of fashion. Here are some of the gorgeous Laila Azhar looks
Laila is can be found in Barney's and the best specialty store around the US. Trust me, you are going to love this designer as much as we do, and want her hanging in your closet.

Gaga over black halo


I know that the title of this post is cheesy, but I could not resist, since Lady Gaga was spotted around town in Hollywood wearing black halo. So here are my thoughts on this picture. 1. I LOVE Lady Gaga. Her music is fierce and she is a modern day Deborah Harry. 2. Jump suits are HUGE. black halo's jumpsuit is on fire with a great fit and sexy bustier detail. 3. I am not endorsing the "Pebbles" hair do that she is sporting, I have a call out to her hair stylist.
You will find the white jumpsuit at INTERMIX

You can never be too RICH & SKINNY!


I don't like to brag, but I like to think of Joey Showroom as having a really good pedigree, if you will, good "genes." Now that we represent Rich & Skinny Denim for the East Coast, our jeans are the best on the market! Joey Showroom is ecstatic to announce this partnership.

So here is the deal...Rich & Skinny was founded by Joie Rucker and Michael Glasser (founder of Seven and Citizen jeans) so they are serious about the denim biz. The name is tongue and cheek (DUH!) but that does not mean there is a paucity of celebrities in Rich & Skinny. Check it.
And this celebrity smattering is only the tip of the iceberg!

The collection includes a core of great basics like the skinny and sleek fit. There are fashion options like the colored denim and high waisted. The Boyfriend raises the bar for this popular look, with a fit that is super comfortable and insanely sexy. You have to check out their web site, it is has received acclaim for its innovation and interactive design. One click and models walk out and wear Rich & Skinny, so you can see the fits first hand. Or, get to know the hilarious characters from "The Lifestyles of the RICH & FAMOUS"
But nothing sells Rich & Skinny than seeing the jeans for yourself. You will notice the premium denim, details like Cartier inspired buttons and of course, the exceptional way Rich & Skinny fit! GO GET 'EM GIRLS!!!
