It’s not official yet, it’s still a rumor but Alexander McQueen might be designing a line that will be sold in our local Target Stores. OMFG indeed!

Would it be too much to ask for this to come true to add on your prayer list? Right …read more

Even though the initial sales of Lauren Conrad’s clothing line had potential, Kitson decided not to carry it anymore. Yup, Kitson dropped Lauren Conrad. Kitson’s owner also said that The Hills star couldn’t be bothered to make an appearance to promote her own lone. Lauren Conrad’s people claimed conflict on dates. Uh huh. I agree with making an appearance for promotion purposes but maybe one of the biggest reason the sale is “lackluster” coz the line sucks. Even though I like her blue “Christina” dress. Not to mention …read more

America’s Next Top Model Cycle 9 is not over yet but Cycle 10 is already being planned. Well, judge-wise anyway. Due to Twiggy’s schedule problems, she won’t be coming back for ANTM season 10. Replacing her is equally beautiful supermodel, one of the most beautiful women on my list by the way, Paulina Porizkova. Oh I love her. Her beauty is eternal. And I don’t say that about anyone else famous. Well besides Marilyn Monroe. I’m looking forward to watching her every Wednesday dishing it out with Tyra, Ms. Jay and Nigel.
