Lady Gaga is beyond the realm of the real world. But I've come to realize that this is her artform. This is how she chooses to present her music to the world and I cannot be mad at that. At her core she is just a normal woman with big grandeur ideas that she's able to present in full blown production on stage. So with that being said Lady Gaga has been chosen as Versace's "Face" of their 2014 Spring/Summer campaign. Lady Gaga has been known to pull out a Versace gown or ensemble since she came on the scene. And since she and Donatella are very good friends being in the ad campaign for Versace wouldn't be a hard task. 

Lady Gaga looks absolutely stunning in this purple gown by Versace. And if you're looking at the gown saying she's worn this before, you would be absolutely right! She wore this gown to the AMAs 2 weeks ago before the announcement of her being apart of the new Versace campaign. Many people say she's channeling Donatella herself with the tanned olive skin, minimal makeup, and long blonde wig. Either way Lady Gaga looks absolutely stunning and here in lately she's been toning down the theatrics as far as her normal dress. Recently she's become one of my style crushes. Love Lady Gaga and ArtPOP is my new obsession. I really like the album.

Congrats on the new ad campaign with Versace Lady Gaga!

Make Me Chic is my favorite company to shop online! They have great shoes, excellent handbags, jewelry, clothes, and other fabulous accessories. I was first introduced to them through a YouTuber named Selima77. I started visiting their site and saw that they had a wide selection of products to choose from and I loved the eclectic nature of their selection.

With that being said I needed a new bag and I wanted something that was different from the other bags I had and had some pizazz to it when you saw it. Basically I wanted it to POP! And POP it DID! LOL I bought a vibrant orange clutch and this BAD stiletto shoe necklace. I'm a stickler for my shoes, LOVE LOVE LOVE me some good sturdy well made high heel shoes.

Here's a Couple Photos of the Clutch and My Fabulous Necklace:

The Clutch Description via the Website: The best in minimalist chic! This clutch features a textured body, turn lock and structured envelope design. Measures approx. 14" in width and 9.5" in height.









The Stiletto Necklace Description via the Website: Take a step in the right direction with this large rhinestone stiletto heel necklace! Features a metallic chain holding an oversized pump with rhinestones decorating the heel that will make you the main attraction for the night.




















Both of these items together cost me....$51.49! The necklace was $15 and the clutch was on sale for $28!

Large Rhinestone Heel Necklace GOLD (No Longer Available), Red (Available) - $15.40
Heres what the red version looks like:

I'm really disappointed. I've been wanting to purchase from this company for years.  I finally had the money to purchase a pair of wedges from them and I was soooo stoked! I went to the site bought my shoes and then waited about a week in a half for them to arrive. They cost $30 and I had free shipping! When they came I was happy but when I got ready to put them on I looked at them and they looked small for a pair of size 11 shoes. I tried them on realized they didn't fit and I instantly got upset! I really wanted these shoes for a dress that I ordered and I couldn't believe that I couldn't fit them.

So I decided to conduct a little test with the shoe. I said "Hmm let me see if the shoe is sized wrong or is it just my feet?" 


FYI - I have fat feet. Usually the shoe game for me is limited. Because of my wide feet it makes it difficult to order from just anywhere.

Anyway I decided to have my mom try on the shoes. She's a size 9 by the way and the shoes fit perfect! I'm upset. I felt like if they are not true to size then they shouldn't advertise that. It should explain the "sizing". Some sites explain that they get their shoes from Europe and they are sized differently over there by the country they are made in. What did we learn from this? Buying your shoes online can be a crap shoot. And just because it says its your size be prepared to accept that is not true. Not all shoes are created equal.



















It's Rating Time People:

Shoe Size Rating: 2 out of 10
Shoe Quality: 10 out of 10
Experience (As far as shipping, customer service, etc.): 100 out of 10
Price: 100 out of 10 (Prices are REAL GOOD!)

If they were true to size and absolutely fit me, this blog would be different. I'm truly upset. Honestly I wanted those shoes and now I'm like sorely disappointed. I just can't give them a higher rating than this and I really want to!

If you have a smaller feet than a size 11 and would like some good quality, affordable, trendy shoes then check out ZooShoo.com! They have some selections that are just out of this world! I hate that I can't participate in the awesome experience of this site, its great product selection and its beautifully affordable prices; but it is what it is.

Reality Queen NeNe Leakes has decided to venture into fashion as her next business venture. Honestly I think its a good fit. NeNe has always been fashionable (especially her shoes GOD I love that woman's SHOES! LOL) so its no surprise that she has decided to venture out into Fashion. Actually I'm glad. I think that it is a lucrative business opportunity. The magazine discusses Mrs. Leakes ever present style. Take a look at the pieces she chose for her photo shoot (By the way these are not from her line they are designer clothing. They are just chronicling her style). They are fun, flirty and she's even incorporated some of that jazz era flapper girl style with modern trends. 

She posted a tweet on twitter and here's what it says:
"Get a sneak peek @ my style in Today's Black Woman!" "Look out for my clothing line coming soon."
In the magazine she mentions her love of the color black and cocktail dresses, But I just have one suggestion: Mrs. NeNe I hope that you make your line as diverse as possible. I know for you its about extremely high heels and sleek form fitting dresses (although I have seen you in jeans and a t-shirt before I'm just saying #nodisrespect, #noTnoShade) but you limit your market when you just cater to a certain demographic. It is my hope that you would broaden your line into casual everyday wear but still on trend along with the cocktail dresses, evening gowns, fierce shoes and so on and so forth. Take a look at what the Kardashians did with their line at Kohl's. Affordable clothes for every size (well almost) and they are on trend and very fashionable. Another example of a good affordable fashion line for all walks of life is Jennifer Lopez and Mark Anthony also featured at Kohls. They really provide the public with a wide variety of clothing that is wearable for every occasion. And it is my hope that you will do the same!!!!!


Congrats on the new clothing line and your ever blooming career. And of course your new start on your second time around with Mr. Leakes. Good Luck and I hope you will carry a size a 11 for me in the shoe department. If you make shoes, PLEASE HAVE A SHOE LINE!!!!!





By the way you look absolutely STUNNING IN THAT COPPER DRAPED DRESS IN THE MAGAZINE PERIOD! GORGEOUS!!!!!

Michelle Phan is a YouTube Beauty Guru that has garnered attention for her awesome beauty tutorials and cosplay transformations. I've been subscribed to her channel for years but I had no idea how big her fanreach was. She has over 4.5 million subscribers and over a billion page views. For 2 years Ms. Phan has been working on her own makeup line with L'Oreal. And now its finally available! em Michelle Phan is her incredible makeup line em is a Vietnamese word meaning you which she uses as a term of endearment to her loyal and ever growing fanbase!



em Michelle Phan is available exclusively online HERE! Her products are gorgeous take a look at some of the products that I really love:

#1: Life Palette

The Life Palette has 36 refillable shades of eye, lip and cheek color. Each palette is $75 USD and they have interchangeable pots so you can mix and match and create a set that you love and enjoy. She has several sets that represents different looks: Beach, Career, Love, Party, Night Life and Day. Each set represents a different occasion, different look, so all you would have to do is pull out one palette do your makeup, slip it in your purse for touchups and retouches and you're ready!
#2: Foundation

Foundation is like the #1 issue for minorities. There are never enough colors and they are broad enough to ensure that you don't look too dark or too light. So mostly we either mix and match or try to find a foundation that is close to our skin tone. Well I think Michelle Phan has figured out that problem. At $30 a pop these HUGE foundation compacts are affordable and they have a broad spectrum of colors to choose from. Although I would suggest you still mix foundations. They can provide the perfect coverage by mixing. Believe Me! Now below you're going to see my foundation picks from her site:

My face has both warm and cool undertones. During the winter its a little cooler so I like to wear a foundation that has more of a red undertone. In the summer oddly enough my face is a little warmer so I like to tone it down with a foundation that has a olive/yellow undertone to it. And then lastly sometimes I like to mix the foundations to give my face the perfect shade of even tone brown skin. So here are the two shade their very close in color actually:

Mocha 23
Chocolate 24





















Waterliner Eyeliner It Was Too Cool to Pass Up!!!!

SWATCHES of the
Waterliner eyeliner
for Dark Skin
Everything from her foundations to her eyeshadows is made with every ethnicity in mind. Her site is very interactive she has tutorials, full length customer reviews, even SWATCHES, its a fun site and Michelle is an awesome person. She's fun perky and makes everything seem effortless. I think everyone would benefit from this Guru's makeup. em cosmetics caters to all ethnicities and I'm so glad because many small and large cosmetic companies don't. But because Michelle has such a diverse fan base it was easy for her to find the various colors for every skin type and color and incorporate that into her line.

I'm telling you I'm going to in and buying some of these cosmetics for my birthday and I can't wait! Enjoy some of Michelle's tutorials and other videos involving her wonderful cosmetic line em Michelle!

In October, Mariah Carey will be debuting her third line of nail lacquer with OPI and this time she's got a doozy. Mariah Carey's debuting 18 Limited Edition Colors including a Top Coat made of Pure 18K Gold & Silver Leaf Flakes! Can you believe that? DIVA is the only thing to describe that hunti, LOL. Now I know what you're wondering: How Much is This Luxurious Top Coat Going to Cost? Well according to the OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director Suzi Weiss-Fischmann:"The luxe polish was inspired by the singer’s “extravagant style,” and allows for people to “embrace their inner diva without breaking the bank,NOT GONNA BREAK THE BANK?!! Let me tell you guys how much this ONE polish will cost...$30! 

For ONE BOTTLE of Polish!!!! Okay to me that is breaking the bank. But if you want to get it you can. It will available at Ulta in October. There some colors available now at Drugstore.com and Walgreens. But here is the full collection:


All I Want for Christmas
(is OPI) ($9)

All Sparkly and Gold ($9)

Baby Please Come Home ($9)

Cute Little Vixen ($9)

Emotions ($9)

I Snow You Love Me ($9)

Loving the colors for Mariah's new line of polishes but honestly I can do without the $30 bottle of polish. I'm sorry its just too over the top for my tastes. I can't and won't spend that much on a polish. I hate spending $9 on OPI now! Seriously I grit my teeth every time I pull out my card and purchase 3 polishes and it cost me $27 + Tax. Anyway Mariah Carey x OPI Holiday Polish Collection will be available sometime this month! Look for it in ULTA!

Now I've always been a very well rounded girl when it came to fashion. I like my shoe game to be tight and my clothes to offer edgy, subtle sophisticated, realness. Does that make sense? LOL! So I'm no stranger to a good pair of sneaks (jordans, creative recs, nikes, the list goes on and on).

Well Ms Teyana Taylor a very well known sneaker head has turned the sneaker world upside down with her additions to the well known and diverse culture. Teyana Taylor teamed up with Adidas Originals and was asked to create a pair of sneakers that reflected Harlem. And boy oh boy did Teyana deliver!!!! She came up with the concept of Harlem GLC (Good Luck Charm) a line of sneaks that are not only original but still on trend with the colors and prints that a high fashion designer would love to use. Check out the first pair she released earlier this year in February:



Closeup Professional Pics:







Here are the ones she's releasing November 29, 2013 "Blackout" GLCs:




The sneakers are BAD! Teyana and her team are GENIUSES! I dig the creative way to utilized the back of shoe with the black bands. But the only drawback I have is that they are $140 a pop! Thats a lot of dough for some sneaks. I understand they were custom designs, by a celebrity, and are a part of the Adidas originals. And I know what y'all are saying: Tiffany you just confessed to owning several pair of high end sneakers yourself. Before y'all beat me up let me explain. Every pair of Jordans, Dunks, Bigs, Creative Recs or what have you that I own were bought for me. I have never spent a dime of my own money over $100 for a pair of sneakers. So I am not, nor have I have claimed to be a true sneakerhead I just appreciate the culture, thats all.

Teyana Taylor I'm sorry to say I don't follow you on Instagram or Twitter and I had idea about shoes but I gotta say these are awesome. Big UPS to you girl. You mad style and you got some big props from me!!!!


RATING TIME!!!!!


OVERALL: 10 OUT OF 10 - Great concept, great design. Its got the vibe that every sneakerhead secretly and publicly wants: Originality with a hit of celebrity luxury.
COST: 6 OUT OF 10 - Only because its not an affordable price but given the high end value of the shoe is actually affordable for people who have $140 to spend on some sneaks. Me...sigh, I'll just admire from a distance!
SHOE DESIGN: 10 OUT OF 10 - She kept the true nature of a sneaker. But jazzed it up with beautiful bronze colored snakeskin metallic leather that was brought out by black accents. Along with the faux studded tongue and very creative black band heel.
