In regard to fashion, I love that slogan: A MANS LIFE IN A WOMANS BODY.  It suggests androgyny and I’m all about that, it’s in my makeup as an Aries. And since I mention makeup…. Lets get this show on the road. Makeup Artist James Kaliardos took these exact words and painted them on the models faces for the Diane Von Furstenberg collection during Fashion Week 2010.

I love it! Hard eyes with a shimmer, contoured face with a pale lip, hard expression with soft hair. BALANCE. This couldn’t possibly come at a better time for me, as a makeup artist  I’ve been screaming lately that it’s time for makeup to evolve. Looks and eyeshadow styles are becoming dated… So its time to step it up. Go to your nearest makeup shop, grab a blending brush and paint on the darkest shimmery shadow you can find. If you call yourself fashion forward or are wanting to become more fashion aware and savvy then what better place to draw your inspiration than FASHION WEEK?

UHM, Yeah. And if andre Leon Talley is co signing your stuff… you have a dead give away you moving in the right direction. I know what MY makeup is gonna be looking like this Fall! Giving it to ya’ll early, Generating HYPE!

So we are one day away from the last  month of the year, and o my goodness hasn’t it been one. This year has been full, unexpected, crazy, you got an event I got a word to describe it. It’s crazy so much stuff went down this year I would have never expected. I went to the zoo in Berlin, met John Legend, Megan B chopped off ALL her hair, I hosted my first party and best of all we developed Lipstick Mixtapes. Whoa! and that’s not all   the  bad went down too, I got a flat tire on the side of the road this weekend (thanks Drew and Steve), Micheal Jackson died, my cousin went back to prison, and the recession is still hitting hard. But in spite of it all God has been a fence around me everyday. I am so thankful for all that has happened and even some things that haven’t happen. We never know just how our day is going to go let alone our year. It is filled with so many  expected and unexpected turns. I’m coming to learn that It really is what it is, and i just hope that all the cards will fall in my favor. As I  celebrate the ending as I welcome what is new, I hope that this year will go down as my best year yet.  I encourage everybody  if you haven’t already done something you want to do go for something, do something if it impacts no one else but you, you did it and that should make it all worth it.

Hold on, fashionistas of the world….. it gets better,  the woman is bad! This dress is a piece from the Jason Wu RTW (ready to wear) collection for SPRING 2010!!!!!!!! Shut. The. Front. Door! Really? You can’t even get your hands on it! Lol but after seeing her in it, how dare you even want to!
