NICKI MINAJ: The Loudest and Fun Fash Sense 'N' The Game

When it comes to fashion, especially LOUD and ECCENTRIC fashion in entertainment, Nicki Minaj has got to be one of the baddest in the game. She has certainly got an image boost with the clothes she wear that gets louder and bolder over time. The POP, the wigs, the attention-commanding, the real-life black Barbie image she has been pushing to the crowds aggressively probably is what moved 375,000 units of "Pink Friday" in its first week.

Check out these pictures of Nicki Minaj in her latest performance @ VH-1. Ain't she LOUD (in a good way)?! She can pull her crazy looks off very well when she's performing--- Nicki, just don't wear this kind of stuff on the red carpet (see previous "Minaj" link from "Fash, Crash, and Burn": http://theonlyjaiden.blogspot.com/2010/11/fash-crash-and-burn-nicki-minaj.html )

PHARRELL WILLIAMS (N.E.R.D.) Defies Age At 37; Looks 27!

Call me crazy, but are you supposed to look THAT GOOD at 37?? If so, I want to be exactly like my man Pharrell of N.E.R.D., who continues to defy age, and of course he mentions several times that he does not get any "procedures" done to his face, just that he eats right and uses old-fashioned, natural remedies to care for his face.

I'm 22 years old; I definitely want to look that good at 37. Check my picture below:

THE ONLY JAIDEN's Official Photo Shoot

I'M EXCITED ABOUT THIS... I'm revealing to you my official pics from my photo shoot from December 1st. These photos were captured by Detroit's VOIST MAGAZINE photographer Patrick Gamaliel, who is extremely talented in his field of work of photography and graphic design.

Patrick and I met in person for the first time for an in-studio shoot and was very polite and welcoming. I think it's very important to establish that great business relationship/rapport with a photgrapher and share your expectations and what your capabilities are so that he/she will know how to better work with you.

So as a result, Patrick got some excellent shots of me, and I gave as much as I could to the camera.. 

There is NO one-way communication, and as a model, it's important to be fluid and go through a variety of poses that are uninhibited and poses that you would do in real life if you were a model.

For example, doing daily things in a certain position and applying them as a look in front of the camera usually turns out well instead of looking "stiff and staged."

But anyway, check out my pictures and link in the Portfolio page:

The Beautiful LisaRaye

This beautiful model/actress/socialite LISARAYE has been through it all: The rise, the sultry movies, getting ahead, marriage, heartbreak, divorce, and more. BUT.... she manages to look good through it all. The Lady In White (she always wear white) was spotted at a charitable event with cropped hair and beautiful physique.

Hmm...I wonder if the gorgeous Rihanna will look like this when she'll get to LisaRaye's age?

Gotta love, love, love her...

USHER has been crooning and wooing ladies worldwide with his looks, dance moves, and voice. Recently, he has been sporting a futuristic look lately, the above picture being in Toronto the other day. I think it looks cool on him. Whaddaya think?

Usher's glasses are by Versace, Vintage Versace S90 Glasses (in gold for $900) in black for less than $900.

Check out his other futuristic looks:

DC Shoes Unleashes "PLEASE STAND BY" Shoes

I think that these sneakers are ill. Every time you take a step, the words "Please Stand By" will show. It's one of those two-way meanings. One way may mean "I'm cool, so wait for me" and another way may mean "Step outta the way please, I'm STEPPING THROUGH."

Another thing I like about the sneakers is that the style is very understated, unassuming, not over-the-top, and bring surprises when you have the sneakers turned at the certain angle (peep the clear gum soles and the colorful hem at the top/inside of the sneakers. Note to Detroit: These shoes will be available at several sneaker boutiques in your area. Peep 'em and buy 'em!!

ANOTHER PLUS: IT'S AFFORDABLE!! A far cry from astronomical LANVIN!! And with more "make-sense" style too!!!

LANVIN Embroidered Sneakers: Yours For $2,705 *Cough*

LANVIN released some more variation of their popular hightop sneakers which have caught the fashion world by storm.

These shoes are constructed using very premium materials and an extensive embroidered detail (no it's not actually 'mess' on the side of the shoe).

 It's yours or someone's gift for Christmas...for $2,705. WOW!!! HOW CHEAP!!! (Sideways look)

Popular BALMAIN Sunglasses: Makes U Look Like Royalty!

These are A-TRENDING in the Sunglasses World. These are BALMAIN x OLIVER PEOPLES sunglasses for $595. These are unisex and were previously seen on several celebs and artists like Rihanna, Mary J. Blige, and Flo Rida, seen below.

That's not all these glasses are limited to. I see these on regular people in some malls I visit, and one gospel artist I saw. Hmm...I like these, the teardrop shape, very artful, edgy, and coooooool. 

 

HALLE BERRY! HALLE BERRY! HOTT IN BALMAIN!!

(See Halle's pic below)

OMG, Halle Berry really defies age!! She is so.... the stuff she wears, her hair looks so good cut short... her physique and posture is just right....SO GRACEFUL.

Berry was at a Hollywood movie premiere wearing a BALMAIN number: Gold and black BALMAIN double breasted brocade jacket (Fall 2010) for $3,500+, and matching pants for almost $2,000!!

Oh boy... calm down Jaiden, calm down...
