June Ambrose to Launch her own Reality Tv Show!!!!

Hey Dolls, according to YBF.com the other day; Style Icon June Ambrose is slated to get her own reality show on VH1.  This is so exciting   to hear because I for one have been wondering “ When is June going to get her own shoe”  especially after watching the first season of The Zoe Report ( the Rachel Zoe reality show) .I’m sure you all have heard of June Ambrose, if not  and you’ve been hiding under rock June is the iconic stylist for such artist as Kanye west ( “ I got style ask June if she heard of me “ Lol), Puff daddy, and the recent Jasmine Sullivan Videos  “ Circles” and “10 seconds”. On top of staying ahead of the fashion world, June managed to put out a book entitled “Effortless Style” as well. I can’t wait to see what this reality show will bring. I will keep you guys posted.

Ripped From the Runway:Nicki Minaj In Betsey Johnson

Sorry I been away, dolls but I’m Bizzzzzack, Check out our fashion vixen Nicki Minaj in her article in Ebony Magazine. I think that Nicki looks fierce, In a Betsey Johnson Marilyn Monroe sweater dress, and Christian Louboutins. The Marilyn Monroe sweater dress was first displayed at the Betsey Johnson runway show. With some slight alterations this dress looks great on Nicki. Unfortunately dolls this dress is sold out on Betsey Johnson’s website. You don’t have to be sad long dolls; there are several other Marilyn tunic sweaters to choose from to create this look. I love this photo shoot of Nicki. If you haven’t grabbed “Pink Friday” you have to get yourself one. What do you dolls think of the look?

Committing Shoeicide !!

As Always I ran across another pair of pumps that I would give my first born for. ( Just kidding ) Check out these Clou Noeud Spike Sling backs  BY Christian Louboutin.  These Showstoppers are part of the Fall/Winter 2010 Collection and are drop dead delicious. I was Love struck behind these babies for days. These  Pumps are running  for $1195. I was in search for these pumps everywhere , the nude colored pumps are sold out. Shoe connoisseurs like me can search Major retailers such as Barneys or Saks if they want to get their hands on these.  Yes these babies are EXPENSIVE! But the delight of having artistic candy on your feet is priceless. ( Lol ) For fashionistas on a budget use the key characteristics of these pumps on your next shoe outing.  When trying to accomplish this look aim for a transitional sling back with edgy appeal,  and a Kick ass heel. Look for spikes, height,  and flair at  Bakers, wild pair, and Aldo. This look can be sensational with a little black dress or Jeans and a blazer. Take a moment  and salivate ladies , I  have .
