Kabuki Blackface for V Magazine and SS11 Punk Trend. O.K. by Me!

NICKI MINAJ covers V's January 2011 'Discovery Issue'

and her spread features pieces from the Spring 2011

Collections of Versace, Balmain, and Givenchy.

Being a HUGE BlackFace supporter myself, I could not help

but to post this. In FULL ON KABUKI make-up, she does her part to keep the artistic

black & white/Kabuki performer face alive. Thank You Nicki.

ROONEY MARA covers W's February 2011 'Movie Issue' where stars of 2010 such as Natalie Portman, James Franco (!!!), & Mila Kunis are also interviewed inside. Mara is transformed into her highly anticipated and 2011 American portrayal of 'THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO's', 'Lisbeth Salander'. Styled out in Spring 11 Burberry and SS11 Punk trend style & also with an incognito black bob, Mara is playing up the punk very well.

ALL HAIL STEFANO!

Paging Betty Draper to the Runway...

I can't believe it has taken me this long to get into AMC's Mad Men,

but now that I have started watching,

(beginning Season One right after Black Friday and currently starting Season Four)

...I'm HOOKED.

Betty Draper has got to be one of my favorite female lead characters in television now. Not only does January Jones (-future Versace Spring11 Ad Campaign model) portray the 60's depressed housewife perfectly, she started bring back the 60's "open umbrella under the dress" look way before this past Fall season when it was shown again Paris & Milan with Louis Vuitton and Prada.

Slim waists, billowing bottoms and prints, prints, prints...

PRADA, Fall 2010

Louis Vuitton, Fall 2010

That is the other reason I am posting this...it is so sad to me that I am just now picking up on this trend besides the fact I don't know how many times I have passed the ads this season in about 20 fashion editorial magazines.

PRADA Fall 2010 Campaign

Louis Vuitton Fall 2010 Campaign

SO, here it is. The post that I should have posted in September.

The 60's are here for Fall, and now, 70's for Spring!

The 70's revival is so exciting. All about exhilarating colors and prints. (Reds, oranges, deep purples, neons, and animal prints ---LEOPARD), but that post will come later! Enjoy, my post I am ashamed to be posting in late December just as Fall is coming to a close, but I feel is too good to not post!

Happy Holidays!
