The Evolution of: Rihanna


Source: GQ

Let’s take a little walk down memory lane with one of our favourites, BadGal RiRi.

It feels like forever since Rihanna emerged on the scene. Having gone through many stages of success, she has never achieved the amount of buzz that surrounds her today. She is a social media phenomena who is recognized worldwide as not only a talented songstress, but also a fashion icon and an all around beaut. Because she even has a navy of her own, lets just go ahead and call her Queen RiRi. Sorry B, we are going to have to make room for two. Rihanna hasn’t always been a blunt-blowing bad girl, so lets take a gander at what made her who she is today… read more…

Mad Hatter

Hats that inherently look like a multi-media sculpture stolen from the Louvre are arguably the most thrilling and outrageous headwear situations – but since those are typically exclusive to an English horse race of some sort, let’s discuss the ones you find on the streets of Paris during Fashion Week or in the Meatpacking District of New York on an everyday basis. Crumpets may not be involved in the latter instance, nor will the Duchess of such and such be super relevant, but let’s put all of that aside, and still take a look at some trendy cats sporting some fabulous (everyday) hats! read more…

Overall, Great Overalls.


Source: The Man Repeller

Let’s not deny it (you would be silly to anyway, because you’d totally be an outcast), but everyone had those cherished overalls that they wore through the rough times and the great times. They wore them to camp, birthday parties, playing with the dog in the backyard, when Annie Chu stole your Spice Girls lunch box etc…n=but, I bet you your bottom dollar that you haven’t thought about that beloved denim onesie (of sorts) in a really long time. Why not initiate a little ~update~ to make them age-appropriate, and bring them out to play once more? Here are a few ideas as to what overalls you might like to resurrect.  read more…

An Important and Necessary Update on Daft Punk


Source: Complex

Daft Punk is taking a serious leap back into the spotlight of pretty much every stage of the entertainment world. Though this isn’t to say that they really ever left in the first place (because come on — it’s Daft Punk), in recent months the French dance duo has definitely been turning a few more heads, eyes, and ears in their direction. From the world of music to the world of fashion, we’d like to give you a well deserved (and much needed) update on what the Robots have been up to. read more…

Who Wore It Best? Hiding Behind Things Edition


Photo: Amanda Bynes via Twitter / wwtdd.com

There are many days when that (good-for-nothing) alarm clock goes off and eternally pressing the “snooze” button seems like the most desirable thing in the world. Unfortunately, we rarely have the luxury of chucking our awakening-machine out the window and hiding out in bed all day, as life carries on whether or not we want it to. This is when most of us opt for a large pair of sunglasses to mask our faces when we feel like hiding from the world. Unfortunately, on the off-chance that these eye-covers aren’t available, getting a little bit more creative might be necessary. So the next time you’re at a loss, turn to these celebrities who clearly understand the true meaning of “desperate times call for desperate measures.” Because on days when they’d rather not deal with everything around them, they’re prepared to show us that there is always (mostly) inanimate objects one may hide behind… read more…

It’s Chambray, Hombre!

The nice thing about being a lady (besides everything) is that we can take bits and pieces from our fellow men’s wardrobes and turn them into something completely new. Take the chambray shirt for example. It’s light, it’s casual, it’s versatile and it’s necessary. Inspired by the early 1900’s US Naval uniforms, this classic men’s work-shirt has now been transformed into a spring/summer favorite that us gals know how to ~werrrk~ without the work. You know what I mean? Just take a gander: read more…
