Riccardo Tisci Creative Director Of Fashion House Givenchy Has Collaborated With Nike To Create The Air Force 1 RT Collection.

My Pick Of Zara Shoe Collection...








All Of These Shoes Are Less Than 200.00 Dollars And Are Available At Zara.com. I'm Really Loving The Gold Detailed Slide On's So I'll Definitely Be Purchasing Them For Summer. I Say Summer And Not Spring Because We've Been Having A Horrible Winter In New York And I Doubt This Snow Will Melt Before May.

Cereal For The Runway!




Anya Hindmarch Decided To Wear Her Morning Cereal Rather Than Eating It. Love The Detail And Pop Of Color These Handbags Offer. These Totes Should Bring Out The Fun Side In Any Fashionista Because How Could You Take Your Self Seriously With Tony The Tiger Stitched On The Side Of Your Tote. What Are Your Thoughts?

I Know I Was Going For A Lighter Look With Not So Much Black But Finding Clothing That Fits A Nine Month Pregnant Women Isn't An Easy Task. Thank God For Next Boutique. Next Always Has Great Pieces That Flatters Me Well, Not To Mention the Helpful Staff.

Khole Decided To Make A Huge Stament Yesterday In NYC And What Better Way To Do That Than Wearing A Faux-Fur Coat With The Word's "Fxck Yo Fur" Sprayed On It. I Suppose She Was Trying To Catch Our Attention And She Defiantly Accomplished That.

Black History Month: African American Inventors



Madame C. J Walker Was An Inventor, Business Woman And Self Made Millionaire. She Developed  A Cosmetic Line That Consisted Of  Haircare And  Beauty Products Which Was Extremely Popular In 1905. She Went On To Name The Line Walker Systems And Her First Product Was A Scalp Treatment. 


Jan Ernst Matzeliger  Invented A Machine That Attached The Upper Part Of The Shoe To The Sole And Patented The Machine In 1883. His Machine Could Produce 150 - 700 Pairs Of Shoes A Day Cutting Shoe Prices Across The Nation  In Half. He Was A Workaholic And Worked Himself In To An Early Death. If he Could See How Far We've Come From His Invention Mr. Matzeliger Would Be Proud.

My Love For Givenchy Boots.






I'm So In Love With These Givenchy Leather Knee-High Sheath Boots. I've Wanted These Since The Fall But At A Price Tag Of 1695.00 It's Not AVery Practical Purchase But I Still Maybe Able To Sneak These In To My Budget. These Boots Are An All Year Wear With Jeans, Skirts, Shorts, And Dresses. Did I Mention I Was In Love... LoL

Getting Ready For My Baby Shower

With A Waist Line Well In To The Unmentionable Number And A Rather Large & Round Belly Nothing Fits. I'm Trying To Look Sheek, Polished, And Stay Fashionably Pregnant But I'm Having A Hard Time Finding Clothing That I Love Fit Me Correctly. I REFUSE To Wear Maternity Clothing Throughout My Pregnancy And I Don't Plan On Starting In The Homestretch Stage. It's Almost Over So I Have To Go Out With A Bang. Here Are Some Of My Inspirations. Let Me Know What You Think.






























So I'm Back...

I Have Not Updated In Quite Sometime But I've Been Very Busy With Such Little Time To Blog. I Worked Ridiculous Hours At Work, Moved In To A New Home, And Have A Bundle Of Joy On The Way. Whewww I'm Tired Just Typing That.. LoL I'm Currently On Maternity Leave From Work And My Baby Girl Hasn't Made Her Presence In To the World Yet So I Do Have A Bit More Time To Give My View Of Fashion. So Allow Me To Reintroduce Myself My Name Is Kristina And I Love Fashion With A Passion.
