The 7 year old fashion wonder boy


I came across this video clip that featured 3 very short segments on beauty and style clips, and the first segment featured an amazing little boy who just happens to be a fashion prodigy. Meet 7 year old Geordy, the fashion wonder boy, as he styles models with designing legend Isaac Mizrahi. Watching Issac and this little boy together bouncing off ideas from each other was very cute and actually quite cool. After seeing that segment I realized 2 things that were very obvious, 1.) There is no way in hell that kid is gonna end me being straight , it’s clear already (which is fine) and 2.) He is going to be a HUGE star in the fashion industry when he gets older. As for the other clips? I could care less about the other 2 clips because the segment with Geordy is all I cared about. Enjoy!

Stephanie Seymour for Chantelle


New York - French lingerie brand Chantelle wants to spread the notion of something that French women seem to instinctively know - a good bra with the right fit empowers a women’s sense of femininity, and that equals more confidence.

To help raise the profile of the company, last year they signed on supermodel Stephanie Seymour as the face of the brand. Her curves are well known: Seymour was once a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model as well as a model for Victoria’s Secret. Read the full story

Diamond thong the highlight of Singapore show


A model is carried on the shoulders of two other models as she displays a diamond-studded thong during Viva La Eve by Triumph at the Singapore Fashion Festival April 3, 2008. The thong, valued at S$168,000 ($121,106), is decorated with 30-carat diamonds.SINGAPORE (Reuters) - A diamond thong worth S$168,000 ($122,000) was the highlight of a lingerie fashion show in Singapore on Thursday.
The Triumph Luxurious Diamond Thong had 518 brilliant-cut diamonds, totaling 30 carats, studded into the front of a black lace thong in a floral pattern. The skimpy underwear that left little to the imagination also had 27 white gold tassels hanging off it.

Danielle Luminita, a brunette model from Romania, was carried down the runway on the shoulders of two male models wearing only the diamond thong.

“It is very comfortable, it’s not heavy or scratchy or anything,” Luminita told Reuters backstage.

A spokeswoman for Triumph International, the lingerie company that commissioned the thong, said that the thong would be dry cleaned before going on display.

“It’s a signature piece, obviously we aren’t going to sell it,” she said.

The gayest makeup ad ever


You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video
This is the gayest makeup ad I have ever seen and I love it! Love it! Love it! Heatherette is a fashion company and design house run by Traver Rains and Richie Rich. It is located in New York City. It owes its roots to the designer, Richie Rich’s, status as a “Club Kid” in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

I’ve always been a freak for their clothes and now this killer new M.A.C. makeup line they just released is giving me nightmares because my so called budget for things like food and gas is now ruined. I looked for hours trying to find a way to get a hold of that stunning new shade of “lipglass” it’s called Minx but it’s totally sold out on the M.A.C site..oh it would be soooo perfect on my lips. I’m also loving the Starlet Kiss and Sock Hop lipgloss too.

4.8g / 0.17 oz
US$14.00

M.A.C has always had some of the best eyeliner in my opinion. Unlike most store bought eyeliner I love how rich and colorful the colors look on my lids. I have a tube of M.A.C Blue Pigment Eyeshadow Color Powder that I purchased over 3 years ago at the MAC store in Macy’s in NYC. I have used it as an eyeliner, eyeshadow, and even lipstick on special occasions that call for blue lips, lol. It’s been used at least 100 times and look, it’s still looks full and practically new. This is what makes M.A.C so worth the little extra money you have so spend for it. All I ever need was just a little and it went such a long way.

10 Beauty Sins


Sometimes looking good is just as much about what you don’t do as what you do. But if you chew on your cuticles or use a hair dryer every day, it’s time to hit the confessional. You’re committing a beauty sin!

Who among us has not committed at least one of these? Now is the time to repent!

Beauty Sin No. 1: Chewing on Your Cuticles

It may seem like just a little nibble, but torn cuticles lead to hangnails and that can lead to an infection. Jessica Vartoughian, owner of Jessica Nail Clinic in Los Angeles, told Cosmo the trick is to keep the skin around the nails moisturized. She recommends rubbing a thick cream or oil onto your cuticles daily and massaging them with an exfoliator every few days.

Beauty Sin No. 2: Changing Your Hair Color Too Frequently

It’s fine to change your hair color or tint occasionally, but if you dye your hair too often, it will make the strands weak — not to mention the identity crisis you’ll get when you go from blonde to red to brunette in a matter of weeks. Pantene celebrity colorist Rita Hazan told Cosmopolitan that darker shades are less damaging to your hair since you aren’t stripping away natural pigment. A permanent dye can be used safely once every four weeks, while an ammonia-free, semi-permanent formula can be used once every three weeks. Just remember to get an excellent conditioner and use it frequently!

Beauty Sin No. 3: Going To Bed Without First Washing Your Face

Falling asleep with eye makeup on does not only give you puffy bags when you awaken, can also lead to infection. New York City dermatologist Patricia Wexler says layers of foundation, concealer and blush clog up your pores and keep your skin from breathing. Even if you don’t wear makeup, you still need to wash your face before bed to rid it of oil and dirt. Here’s an idea: Use pre-moistened face wipes.

Beauty Sin No. 4: Getting a Fake Tan

Do we even have to say it? Those ultraviolet-A rays that are emitted primarily from tanning-bed bulbs are also known as “aging rays.” They will actually penetrate connective tissue, which leads to premature aging. And if that’s not enough, UVA rays have also been linked to skin cancer. Just get your tan from a bottle. It’s safe… and believable.

Beauty Sin No. 5: Using Too Much Heat On Your Hair

Put down the hair dryer, curling iron and flatiron now and no one will get hurt. These instruments of hair torture will not only dry out your hair, but also leave it dull, frizzy and weak. Joico artist Anthony Morrison, owner of the Londoner Salon in Los Angeles, told Cosmo you should use a medium heat and speed setting when drying your hair and keep the nozzle a few inches away from your head. When using a flatiron, slide it quickly down your hair, and release the curling iron after five seconds. Protect your hair with a moisturizing shampoo and heat protector spray.

Beauty Sin No. 6: Reprehensibly Dark Lip Liner

If friends are asking you how you enjoyed your hot cocoa and you didn’t have hot cocoa, you’re probably wearing lip liner that’s too dark. Stop it. You look silly. Go find a lip pencil that matches your lip color.

Beauty Sin No. 7: Appallingly Squeezing Your Zits

Bicoastal dermatologist Karyn Grossman explains that picking pimples not only pushes the bad stuff out of your skin, it also pushes it in deeper, resulting in prolonged redness and increased risk of scarring. She recommends using one-percent hydrocortisone on a pimple three times a day for up to five days to decrease inflammation.

Beauty Sin No. 8: Dreadfully Dramatic Contouring

Using deep contour shades to give the illusion of a sculpted nose or a sharper cheekbone looks divine on the pages of fashion magazines where choreographed lighting diffuses the gradations of tone. But in real life, you’ve got to blend those contour shades to near invisibility. That or look like a human outline.

Beauty Sin No. 9: Spidery Eyelashes (over clumping)

Eyelashes are a fine and delicate feature, so honor them as such by using mascara only to subtly enhance. If your impulse is to over-apply, you’re going to have to teach yourself to hold back. Spidery, clumped-up, wild-looking lashes are only attractive to other spiders.

Beauty Sin No. 10: Reckless Vibrancy

If you fancy vibrant cheeks, keep your lips understated. If, on the other hand, you’re aching for vivacious lips, cool it with the blush. It’s the difference between appearing sophisticated and clownish.

Celebrities With Fantastic Hair


zoe_saldana.jpgOMG breaks down a killer list of 31 beautiful celebrity coifs. The list includes, Kate Winslet, Hayden Panettiere, Selma Hayek, Dita Von Teese, Reese Witherspoon, Angelina Jolie, Vanessa Williams, and much more. The list ends with Beyonce which to me is not very fair since she almost always wears weaves, and lace front wigs. I know she has beautiful hair underneath all that stuff, and I love her wigs and weaves, but I don’t think she deserves to be listed as a celeb with great hair since it’s not hers. I’m also not sure about Reese being listed on there either . I mean, she has nice hair, but I don’t see whats so special about it.

Anywho, I love this site OMG because it gives tons of great photos and up to the minute celeb trash that keeps me reading for hours!!! Check out the list and see for yourself.
