Jazmine Sullivan's new video- "Lions, Tigers and Bears"

Check out Jazmine Sullivan’s new video for one of my fave songs on her album "Fearless" titled "Lions, Tigers and Bears"..... am I the only one who feels prompted to say "oh my" after the title? oh Just a thought...



Cute vid- I love the use of color... and the graphics. I also love how a certain characteristic was highlighted in one of the people in each couple showing... umm I guess what they used to make their decision... or perhaps what they lack hmmm. There is definitely a Wizard of Oz Essence to this video. DO YOU AGREE?? Speak on it!

Bag Swagg: Long Champ

I'm sooooo in love with Long Champ bags!!! I love the quality and texture of each and every one of the bags that I've seen thus far. Here is an exert from their website explaining the essence of Long Champ;

Spring/Summer 2009 ready-to-wear collection

"How can one define the Longchamp woman? She's elegant, contemporary, her silhouette is chic. She's got what it takes. Parisian in her heart, she has character and style all the way through. Her attraction lies in focusing on essentials, those masterpiece basics that are the pillars of refined wardrobes that bring on the greatest sense of freedom. Trench, small summer coat, Capri trousers, the eternal white blouse with its new interpretation and the ultra fluid knitwear are the foundations of fashionable style as precise as the stroke of a charcoal crayon. Inspiration for Longchamp's new collection comes from discreetly luxurious urban lifestyle. It's intelligent and easy-going. Cottons and linens mixed with light wool or silk give a ‘back to the natural sources' feeling to this season's fashion, where freedom and comfort reign. Black and white in matt finish, string, beige, indigo or chambray all feature in this master color palette, matched with terracotta, navy, electric blue or chocolate as well as the reptilian prints that sign this season's bags and luggage. The Longchamp fashion dress codes blend into this essentials-only wardrobe: the bamboo is a sure marker of the collection, punctuating a shoulder or a collar, whereas the LM motif covers a trench coat and three-quarter coat in linen canvas. True to the collection's look, the Longchamp woman refuses to go over the top: she focuses on pure, feminine lines, pagoda sleeves, high waists, cuts that are slightly bowl shaped or trapeze style. Attentive and demanding she sees to every detail: frills on the collar of a painter's blouse, the collar, patent leather buttons, white tabs and cuffs on a deliciously translucent blouse... Small twists that playfully texture knitted tops, bias-cut jersey tank tops, or the ultra soft shawls that sometimes come with a touch of humor knitted in. This is a major fashion collection, designed to penetrate the city and life. Day in day out."

T.I- Road to Redemption

*Sigh* So as we all know or should know by now, in two short months rapper T.I will start serving his jail sentence. I guess that's why his "non girl friend/ baby momma" Tiny has been spotted all over town with him recently. T.I has am 11 p.m curfew and must serve 40 hours of community service each week. This wouldn't be America if his last days weren't televised. Check out the clip below- Road to Redemption 45 days to go:

Inaugural Balls

Drum roll please......... the moment we've all been waiting for..... here is the 44th President of the United States of America and the First Lady:



The first words of Our new President were- “First of all, how good-looking is my wife?” OMG!! How cute is that??????????? Up and coming designers 26 year old Jason Wu designed this ubber cute white chiffon dress. I love the choice of color and the top portion of the dress, the bottom and fabric... not so much.

Of course B-Diva was "chosen" to sing our first couples first song which was "At last" by Etta James. That song was perfect in more ways then one. Here's a video of the action;


Vice President and Second Lady Joe and Jill Biden looked fantastic as well:

The Obamas hit up 10 Official Balls. The stars were def on deck :

My President Is Black!!

My President is Black!! The day has finally come... Barack Obama is officially the 44th President of the United states of America!!! Unfortunately I couldn't be in D.C for this historic moment but I've been web hunting for all the pics that I can find!! Enjoy these for now..

Obamarama!!!

The Obamarama continues!!!!

This Laser-engraved, the Obama version has outsold the McCain case 4 to 1, say the sellers. Jason Feinberg designed this Obama action figure/doll and donates $1 from every purchase made towards Obamas campaign.

Eve is patriotic all the way down to her thumbs! Her Obama nail art is actually kinda cute.

Would you buy or try any of these items???

Notorious movie review

Where Brooklyn at???? Lol well if you can't tell I'm still coming off my high after seeing the "Notorious" movie. As I expected the theater was packed to capacity!! I saw people i went to high school with and some from junior high school- talk about awkward lol. The lines were almost out the door and to sum it up in one word- Bananas!! Smart girls always buy tickets in advance so I had no problem when I arrived.

I grew up in the Biggie era so of course the events, locations and songs in the movie were familiar to me. I felt that the movie was somewhat in bits and pieces though, you can tell that you weren't getting the whole story. Some characters were portrayed very differently from how i remember them (*half the cast*). All in all i enjoyed it and i recommend that you go out and watch it as well, if you haven't done so yet.

P.S- "You can't change the world if you don't change yourself"
