Over the past few years, I’ve found myself paying a bit more attention to the types of shoes women wear and how this correlates with their personality. I find that there are generally two personalities associated with each class of shoe. These are a few of my evidence-based conclusions. The #Shoeicide Heels (Louboutin, Blahnik, Gucci, etc) Personality 1: This is [...]
A lot of times we get so bogged down with fighting off colds and warming up our wardrobes that we forget one important thing….spring is right around the corner. It seems like every year I reach that pivotal point in March, when my winter gear is finally 110% complete, but it’s 45-50 degrees #ftswindle. If you’ve been to the mall, etc lately [...]
Rima Fakih, from Dearborn, MI was born in Lebanon and has been celebrated by Arab Americans as the first Muslim Miss USA. (Miss USA Julie Hayek, the 1983 winner, had Lebanese roots on her father’s side, but her win was not considered a first, perhaps because she was raised Christian in California.) Fakih has been reported to be the second Lebanese-American, the [...]
I am going to help you step your game up for the spring/summer. 1. Keep your apparel simple There’s nothing worse than wearing an outfit where you can’t move, drink, breathe, or think in 90 degree weather. This goes for casual and formal outings. Find a nice simple tee or polo and a pair of non-denim shorts for your daytime [...]
The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), North Korea’s state-run (and only) news agency, sporadically releases photos of reclusive 69-year-old leader Kim Jong-il as he makes “on-the-spot” guidance visits.

Followed by army officers, security [...]
I’m sure we all know what is suggested by this billboard but c’mon…sex sells…and it’s all over the place. The Reebok commercial never got removed, yet this billboard deserves a story on the news. Let’s be consistent people. It’s really not that big of a deal.
Anyone who knows me knows that I have mad love for the big men in the game. When you here Pun or Biggie come on a track, they come with a level of confidence that surpasses that which you would expect from someone who isn’t exactly the prototype of “sexy” in the entertainment industry. A lot of rappers got their [...]

Sick pair of jeans. They’ve gone for the more discreet looking symbol on these. Sleek and slick. I want them. Buy them for me please. Love you. By the way, someone told me the other day that Rock & Republic as well as Evisu are brands of the past. For who?? These are brands of the past present and future. [...]
Now I love the Celtics but if I catch any of you wearing these sneakers we might have a little problem. Unacceptable color, design, EVEYRTHING. Hideous. Nothing you can say to me will make it ok to wear these. That’s all. And to show the kind of people they’re trying to market this shoe to…it comes with an autographed ball [...]
According to the Associated Press, “Heidi Klum and her post-baby body led the parade at the annual Victoria’s Secret fashion show.” The show was shot today but it won’t air until Tuesday December 1st on CBS.
