You know you've made it when you have your own doll, a Barbie by Mattel none the less. And Nicki Minaj has most definitely arrived.
Be sure to stop by the Marc by Marc Jacobs store now through February 18th to have your photo taken with real live Playboy bunnies. They will even be wearing authentic costumes from the Playboy vault, go figure!Of course, it’s no surprise Jacob’s is collab-ing with Playboy–his love for bunny ears is well documented. The lusty live window display is inspired by Hugh Hefner’s Playboy, 6 Volumes, a limited edition book Jacobs’ is selling across the street at Bookmark. The designer also created three Marc Jacobs + Playboy tees, which will go for $35 a piece with proceeds going to Designers Against AIDS.
I am most defiantly stopping by to take a picture, what, I always the Christmas shoot. Either way, have a Happy Valentine's Day.

Spring ad campaigns for Baby Phat are steadily rolling out and surprise, do not feature the original queen of hip hop and bling bling! The hang tags are completely void of her face in that horrible black and white photo from what, ten years ago.
Black Swan may be the next biggest thing in the fashion industry thanks the Mulleavy sisters behind Rodate creating 40 costumes for the Darren Aronofsky thriller, including outfitting the entire ballet corps. But with awards season in full swing, you won’t see Kate and Laura Mulleavy’s names next to the nominations for Best Costume Design. Black Swan has already received a best costume nomination from the Critics Choice Awards and will likely get an Oscar nomination. Amy Westcott will take the credit, as she received the “front credit” as costume designer for the film while the Mulleavy sisters only receive a back end credit.
The most famous example of this is Edith Head winning the Oscar for Sabrina when Givenchy outfitted Hepburn for the film. According to the Hollywood Reporter this is a very old tradition.

My former flame invited me to hear two of fashion's best and brightest from the class of, well, let's just say, way back speak. This is their story (insert Law & Order music)
On Labor Day instead of kicking it and getting pissed off at my fellow West Indians as they were over zealous with pride, I decided to keep it real.
I pride myself when it comes to being the creative type, but would never gloat about it, humility is key in my religion, shout out to the Christians! So when the perfect job comes along I will be more than happy if it encompasses the many things I love.
Every young, aspiring fashion stylist should know who Grace Coddington is, especially after The September Issue hit theaters everywhere. So, in case you do not, Coddington is Vogue magazine's creative director.
Jane Pratt has long been my much sought after mentor for numerous reasons. She had a goal, was more than successful in surpassing it, and created a name for herself that will go down in history, Jane, both the in person and in print.

Remember the clothing line Lauren Conrad had been selling exclusively at Kohl's department stores. Well I remember her subsequent covers on Seventeen magazine and peek into her "design journals" even better. Apparently the line had been canceled for some time now, but according to Conrad she is working on something else, and no, not another book series.
As of now it will be "a contemporary fashion line with her best friends." Conrad said the womenswear line will be "more of a boutique line ... at a higher price point.” Interesting, but this will her third time and hopefully a charm.

The City was my show until I became so enamored in classes that I could barely watch it. If you are still in the dark about the "bright lights, long nights of the city", your bubble is about to be burst. The show was a sham and half of the parties that they attended were fake, just like a few of those jobs! Kelly Cutrone was literally "the realest one" on there.
