Hott New Power Couple: Cristiano Ronaldo and Irina Shayk In Spain, Wearing Haute Couture Style


Footballer Cristiano Ronaldo and supermodel girlfriend Irina Shayk was spotted leaving the 2011 Marie Claire Prix de la Moda Awards, which is in Spain.

What caught my eye was the HAUTE COUTURE clothing that this new power couple wore. Keep in mind that Cristiano is an already snazzy-sharp dresser; He wore this perfectly 'sheen' black suit, Hermes belt (which can retail for more than $1K), and patent leather D&G sneakers.

Irina wore an cream-colored Elie Saab evening gown paired with rich-hued suede upper Christian Louboutin peeptoe stilettos.


Picture-perfect couture and stars!

L.A. Dodger's MATT KEMP Signs $160 Million Contract In Tom Ford Style


BANGERRRRRR!!!!!!

L.A. Dodgers' Matt Kemp makes franchise history by signing an 8-year, $160 million contract. Hey-hey, I guess he plays extremely well... and HEY-HEY, I bet Rihanna is going to give Matt a call, 'We found love in a hopeless place...' LOL

That's not all...

Matt Kemp signed his contract in utmost sophisticated style: TOM FORD. Check out a couple angles of his Tom Ford suit. The multi-textured combo (wool suit, cotton shirt, velour bowtie) is a good look.

How I would have done it if I was signing a $160 million contract is I would have my shirt custom-made, white-collar and black silk body, with velvet black-and-white polka dot pattern for my bowtie. DIIIING!!!!

Congrats, Matt!

It's Either The Lighting Or Somethin', But What's Wrong With MARSHA AMBROSIUS' Face? She Looks 15 Years Older!


Check out this pic from the Soul Train Awards.

There's Cynthia from Real Housewives of Atlanta, looking every bit a model with the bold red dress, black-out stockings, black suede heels, and a gorgeous smile... and good makeup.

On the other hand... there's Marsha Ambrosius with her vintage black dress and hott stilettos... and there's one thing that's NOT SO HOTT, and that's Marsha's face!!!

What happened?? Is it the lighting or bad makeup, 'cuz Marsha looks SEVERAL YEARS OLDER!!
Ladies, apply your makeup right or you're in TROUBLE!!

You don't want a man to mistake you for a COUGAR when you just graduated from college!

Rihanna Wears SNUGGIE on 'Ellen' Show Before Sixth Album Release



I guess even the celebrities are feeling SNUGGIES, too.

Rihanna will be on the ELLEN show on Monday, November 21st, on the day that her sixth album 'Talk That Talk' drops. And while she's on the show, she will be presented a SNUGGIE, this 'botched' blanket that you wear that has become an international success. Who knew? 

Rihanna is wearing a Salvatore Ferragamo jumpsuit, earrings by Delfina Delettrez, jewelry by Solange Azagury-Partridge, and Manolo Blahnik heels.

Lady GaGa's in London: GaGa's Crazy Looks Of This Week

Lady Gaga - Lady Gaga stepping out in an outfit reminiscent of the 80s Buffalo Girls as greets her fans before she leaves the Lanesborough Hotel in London

LADY GAGA is LADY GAGA, and she never fails to disappoint or arouse attention for her clothing choices.

Take a look at the above pic. It was said that this outfit was reminiscent of the '80s Buffalo Girls. And while I may have been born in the '80s, I don't know who the Buffalo Girls are. I may have to look that up. But anyhoo, I'm liking the whole look: the '80s print blouse, the shin-length pencil 'wrap' dress, purple suede platform Louboutin ('red bottoms'), and that black top hat is the cherry on top.

Here's a SIDE VIEW:

...And brace yourself for GaGa's next look...

Lady Gaga - Lady Gaga in a Hat

Yes, GaGa wore this pink corkscrew-like hat out of her London hotel as she was escorted to the line for signing autographs, and then over to her Mercedes-Benz (I wonder if she left that hat on because it wouldn't fit in the Benz anyway).

For a second there, I thought GaGa was attending another royal wedding.

Stay tuned for more GaGa looks!

Justin Bieber's Spiked Hair: Likey Or No Likey?

Justin Bieber Singer Justin Bieber attends the MTV Europe Music Awards 2011 at the Odyssey Arena on November 6, 2011 in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Celebs seem to be the fashion TRENDSETTERS these days, but can we make our OWN fashion statement, even in our hair?

QUICK QUESTION: DO YOU LIKE JUSTIN BIEBER'S SPIKED HAIR?
(I think it's cool but a lil' on the feminine side when viewed from a certain angle)

Whether our hair is cropped short, curly, long, spiked, updo, bob, it should definitely be our own with just a little celeb influence. 'Cuz I remember when influences like Rihanna caused black girls to shave both sides of their hair in '09 and '10, I WAS FLOORED.

Party Promoter SLIMM and Amber Rose... Together... and Back In Black


Party promoter SLIMM (Vivica Fox's ex-fiance) and socialite Amber Rose hooked up this past weekend for business purposes only (or so I hear). Both people looked great in their BLACK ensembles.

Slimm wore a black nylon jacket with great accessories like the sunglasses, watch, and cap.

Amber Rose wore 'just the black blazer' (since she wore no pants but the pantyhose) paired with ILL sunglasses. Wait til I get more pics of Amber's outfit... whew...

BLACK is the new BLACK.
