I DIE...............The King & Queen of Hip Hop!


I love Rachel Zoe! Now, I adored her prior to her fame as a reality TV star. She is a fashion stylist best known for working with celebrities, fashion houses, beauty firms, advertising agencies, and magazine editors. Zoe officially announced that she will be releasing a clothing line, with the intention of turning it into a full lifestyle brand. The line was released this Fall 2011.

 Zoe intends on wearing the brand, which is completely different from her QVC line which she launched earlier in the year. Her line is intended to contain accessories, shoes, apparel, and fur vest. And recently, Zoe gave birth to a son, Skyler Morrison Berman.

Isn't this the cutest!!! lol..Look at his infant-size sunshades! He actually looks like a mini version of Elton John! Nevertheless, It's FABOLOUS!!!!!


When I decide to become a mother...I would LOVE to have this limited-edition Missoni Bugaboo Stroller! The covet-worthy collection features a Bugaboo Cameleon sun canopy and bassinet apron in a bright block print ($269), as well as a Bugaboo Bee sun canopy in colorful zigzags ($199). Added bonus: Each set comes with a luxe knit blanket for baby. Its bananazzzzz!!

Maybe I can get it for Tiffy-Pooh, since we have a new edition to the crew in a couple of months. : )

Check out some pics from Rachel's clothing line. You can purchase the line in luxury retail department stores, such as Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf.






On to the next......................................

Everyone knows that I am a HUGE Jay-z and Beyonce fan. Now, I always thought they were the perfect couple. The King and Queen of Hip Hop! Beyonce announced her pregnancy on the MTV awards several months ago. I immediately went into mourning!! : ( I love Jay and Bey, however, I'm a little jealous when it comes to Jay! I was ok with Bey being the wife, but I wanted to be the baby "mova." *dead serious* Anyway, the depression eventually passed and I was able to cope with the fact that she stole my MAN!

Beyonce's performance on the MTV awards was MAJOR! Only Queen Bey can announce her pregnancy with  such class!! I was screaming, my sis was screaming...and we replayed that moment a thousand times. Take a peep at the video...I know I'm late posting this....I'm sure she's due soon. lol..However, school preoccupied my time, so I'm playing catch-up with Pop culture.


*Screaming* and *Tears*
I played this song on my way to work every morning for a week, after her performance!
It was my morning inspiration!

Awwwww.......this moment was so endearing and heartfelt!! Their love is so beautiful! Jay looked extremely happy!!! Every woman wants a man to look at her like he looks at Bey!  *Tears*




She is beautiful pregnant. Now, I have to find 10 people who would like to go
 half on a baby shower gift. *serious face* lol...I was thinking a Hermes diaper bag! lol

Also, check out this young lady. Her name is Syesha, and she is an amazing singer!! She blew me away with "Love on Top." Such an amazing talent! ***Girl You betta go OFF!!!!!!!!


Smooches!

PassPort To Paris!

After our magnificent night out on the town. We had breakfast before we boarded the "Duck Tour." I'm sure your wondering what is a "Duck Tour"?  In simple terms, the Duck Tour is a huge boat tour that takes you on a journey of the famous Miami landmarks before a dramatic “splashdown” in beautiful Biscayne Bay for a close-up look at the many homes of the “Rich & Famous” on Star Island. We decided to participate in the Duck Tour to provide the "Miami Virgins" a glimpse of this beautiful city. It was actually fun and very interesting! The tour guide was hilarious and she went over some important historical information in Miami.







After the Duck Tour we decided to do a little shopping. Unfortunately, I didn't see anything that caught my fashion eye : ( Which is surprising - whenever I travel I always find a least one nice piece.

We did find a small little vintage shop...What caught our eye was the 60% discount on the entire store. The store was very unique and carried quite a bit a designer shoes.

* I took pics, however I know longer have my Crackberry, so I lost my pics : (    #teamiphone

After a long day of shopping, we grabbed a bite to eat at one the restaurants. Miami is considered a high profit tourist location. And there are a ton of similar businesses and restaurants in competition with one another. Therefore, if you walk Restaurant Row, the hostess and waitresses plead with you to dine at their establisment. Its a little pathetic and a nuisance.

Anywho....Look what we stumbled upon!!

My drag queens!! This was clearly the best entertainment ever! And one the cuties, said the girls and I were the best dressed women he has seen down there. His words "Y'all are fierce! Very classy!"
He was such a sweetie pie. And the first round of drinks was on him! Talk about Miami hospitality ; )





Later that night Nakita and I hit up Liv. It was ok! Its really overrated. Just my thoughts!

The next day we did some more shopping. We made a pit stop pass the Kardashians boutique. I love the Kardashians.While Kim maybe the most popular out of the bunch. I have to admit that Kourtney is the most stylish. Oh, and we cant forget Momma Kris! I live for momma Kris. She is such a diva.

We didn't make any purchases in DASH. The prices are completely over priced. But, they have some nice pieces.



After 3 days in the sun. We all missed home. So, back to Bmore we went!


Immediately, after landing in B-more. Nakita and I rushed home to get jazzy for my best doll 30th Birthday Party. We literally had 3 hours to get dressed and make it to Teia's party. The evenings inspiration was "Passport to Paris." You needed an invitation to attend, and the dress code was formal. Everything was superb, from the red carpet introductions to the slue of decadent appetizers.
Check out some of the pictures from Teia's Fab Party.

Screaming!!! HAPPY BDAY TEIA!!!!!
The Bday Girl! Isn't she Lovely! POW












The Lil Waitresses!













Tiff did most of the planning because Nakita and I were in Miami. And, she did a magnificent job. Now, I'm not just saying this because Teia is one of my besties. However, this was one of the best parties I have ever attended. And, you all know how difficult it is to impress me. It was an evening of maturity and sophistication. Love being around my Dolls. We had a ball!

And Kudos to Patrick the Chef for working his magic in the kitchen. Talented young man!
My apologizes if I missed anyone...........there were too many pics to post.

Smooches ; )

We're in Miami Trick!!!

Miami is one of my fav places to vacation. I'm a regular in the MIA, they know me by name. (Well, not exactly). lol. This particular trip was a special occasion. It's Aunt Lynn's 50 birthday!! Whoop Whoop. Let me give you a little background. In all of her 50 years on this green earth, Aunt Lynn has never been on a plane or traveled outside of Baltimore. The furthest she has traveled was to North Carolina to visit family. My sis and I convinced her that she has to go BIG for her 50th Bday, especially since she has never experienced a plane ride. So, we went into Miami planning mode! Four of my other aunts decided to join us on the trip (Aunt Peggy, Vonnie, Neecy and Darlene). And, I cant forget about my lil sister Riel.

Aunt Lynn was so awkward going thru security check....I think I saw her boarding pass floating down the security belt! lol. She threw everything. lol. I was for certain that we were in for a long yet eventful weekend.

As we are waiting in the seating area to depart for our trip. Aunt Lynn asked an TSA employee if there was an area for her to smoke?? Really Aunt Lynn?? In an airport??  The woman replied "No, you should quit smoking, lmao




Aunt Lynn right before take off. She's smiling and laughing now. Lets just say - that smile turned into a frown in a matter of minutes as the plane took off. I think at one point, she screamed as the plane elevated. I quietly turned around in my seat as if I didn't know who she was. #EMBARRASSED...lol


The view up here!! Ahhhh...Its so refreshing!



We finally touched down in MIA!!!
We made our way to the hotel bar for some
cocktails while we waited for our rooms.



After we dropped our bags off in the room...We hit the town.
But, 1st we grabbed a bite to eat at  Jerry's Famous Deli.
The breakfast food was delicious!



Group shot!!
 
Next, we walked up the strip for a little sight seeing. Some pics in front of the famous Versace house. Did you know that Gianni Versace purchased this building in 1992. This home is the location of Versace's un-timely death in 1997. It is now called Casa Casuarina and converted into an exclusive members only club.




A cup at Wet Willies...Call me a Cab!!!


After our 1st day out on the town.
We made our way back to the hotel to
get doll'd up and hit the club!



1st we decided to hit up a bar for some 2 for 1 drink specials. Which, happen to be directly across the street from The Mansion (our destination for the night). And, besides it was early.... so we started a game of pool. Keep in mind, none of us knew how to play except for Riel.



Amateur! lol


After, a few games of pool. Aunt Neecy and Lynn suggested that the girls and I go to the club as a trio. And, they would just take in the sights outside. We all decided to hit up The Mansion. The aunties weren't thrilled with the crowd, and the line was around the corner. Initially, we all were hesitant about Mansion because of the looooong line. I DON'T DO LINES!!! I hate standing in a line to get in the club. So, the bouncer from the previous bar, claimed he had some connects and he could get us in. It took him about 10 minutes to make a few moves and speak with a few people. But, low and behold, he got us in!!!
So no line for US! See, what perks you get when your beautiful. lol *wink*


                              
Only in Miami......
Acrobats and a big azz Panda bear on stage.
It was interesting, yet Fabulous!!!



We hit the beach the next day!
With NO SUN! Ugh!
I was highly agitated with the weather.
I was totally looking forward to getting a tan.






I have a ton of pictures to post concluding our mini vaca.
 So stay tuned for my next post. I will post the remainder of the pics.

Smooches : )
