International FYIs About The Color Blue:

*In Mexico, blue is the color of mourning.
*Blue, blue-green, and green are sacred colors in Iran, where they symbolize paradise.
*In Aztec culture, blue symbolized sacrifice.
*In Greece, the color blue is believed to ward off "the evil eye." Those who believe in this Greek superstition often wear a blue charm necklace or blue bracelet for protection.
*In India, paintings of the god Krishna often depict him as having blue skin.

It's been awhile since I've mentioned/featured Mz.Amber Rose, although I make no secret of the fact that I adore and admire her unique style. Yep. I like her. Get over it.

Mz.Rose has kept a pretty low profile lately. A pic or two of her and her male companion/accessory Kanye pop up now and then but for the most part she has been under the fashion radar lately. Until last night. Last night Amber lit up Atlanta (sans Ye) sporting an "electric blue" shade of lipstick that had her all over the internet this morning.

***PIX COURTESY OF NECOLE BITCHIE***


I know what you think I'm gonna say....that I "love love loved it"...right? Sort of. What I actually love, love, loved is that she wore it. However....
IF SHE WAS MY CLIENT... I would have suggested a much more flattering shade of blue for her hair color and skin-tone...such as:
Limecrime's (yes, my favorite:) "Oh No She Didn't"


I feel that Amber could really do this unique lipstick justice and vice versa. I also see it as a much better shade of blue for her complexion/hair color...

Have a look at the color in "action" courtesy of a fab a post from Limecrime's creator Doe Deere's Blogzine:


P.S Peep the FAB tat on Raquel Reed's leg in the pic above...love love love it.

I would like to thank the AMAZING Necole Bitchie for the pix of Amber Rose. Please visit Necole's fab blog to see many more pix and get the hottest (and more importantly...ACCURATE) news before anyone else.

~Femme Metale~

"I lick the gun
When I’m done
Cause I know
That revenge is sweet
So sweet"
-"G4L" Rihanna "Rated R" (Album)

At least once a week Riri wears something that makes me say "OH MY GOD" in a high-pitched nasally voice reminiscent of "Janice" from "Friends". Which means I really, really, really like it... This week she didn't disappoint. Her outfits for her "Rated R" album release parties (Yes, plural. She had 2 parties...DIVA) damn near put me in a coma brought on by intense jealously. And I knew who designed the ultra-fab metal spike embellished ensembles the minute I saw them. "The Blonds"...whom I believe to be the most underrated fashion designers. They are FABULOUS and people need to recognize (said in my "Tasha Mack" voice)...

Peep the shoes also...AMAZING.



Rihanna isn't the only "Femme Metale"...

La Lopez also loves the metal/stud/spike trend... You can find the following items @ http://www.noirjewelry.com/



This is a bold trend and to really do it justice you have to be all in...no half steppin. So take it over the top with these studded nails that Keedah from "Diary Of A Style Addict" created...

Nice job Keedah...xoxo

"5 Questions For...Dani Founder and Editor-In-Chief of "FerOHHHsh"

Follow my blog with bloglovin´

"Create your own visual style... let it be unique for yourself and yet identifiable for others."
-Orson Welles

It's Tuesday. Well technically it's Wednesday but in "Glamour Whore Galaxy" it's still Tuesday because I said so:) Anyway... Tuesday is "5 Questions For..." Day. I am really starting to love Tuesdays.

This week I picked the oh-so fabulous Dani, Founder/Editor-In-Chief of "FerOHHHsh".



I picked Dani and am so glad she graciously agreed for many reasons. I'll give you a few:

1) She's just damn impressive. She is a certified cosmetologist and also a fashion stylist. Meaning...she has hair/makeup/fashion skills and knowledge. A triple threat. Gotta love that...

2) I am addicted to her blog. http://www.ferohhhsh.com/ A must read for any Glamour Whore. Some people write about fashion and some people LIVE fashion...she LIVES fashion and it shows. Her blog is enthralling and you need to read it regularly. Because I said so. Hurry up.

3) She love love loves nail polish. And I so look forward to her "twitpics" of new colors. Check out her latest nails...they are a brilliant BLUE and FABULOUS...by following her on Twitter @Coutortured

4) She's great at "DIY Fashion"...I appreciate that because me and "DIY" do not equal success.

5) Mz.Dani is the most "Blogger-friendly" person I know. I hate to say it but some people aren't that friendly towards their fellow bloggers. Like it's a competition or something... Get over yourselves. Dani is the opposite, she encourages interaction, is generous with advice and calls attention to other's blogs and posts.

6) Ok, this reason is very important. Pay attention. A month or so ago, Dani's very close and much loved friend Ellen was in a horrific car accident. Ellen is a vivacious, beautiful 26 y/o woman that is very near and dear to Dani's heart. She is a coma, although stable and improving everyday despite the fact that her injuries are rarely survivable, she is a very strong woman. Ellen's family set up a website and donation page, as her injuries are incurring astounding medical bills...prayers are also seriously needed and appreciated.The website is called "Ellen's Prayer". Dani is trying to come up with fundraising event ideas. Anyone and/or resources (a fab event idea, a venue, sponsorship, etc) you can email Dani at Dani@ferohhhsh.com

So now that you know a few of the reasons that I am thrilled she agreed to this...

"5 Questions For...Dani Founder and Editor-In-Chief of "FerOHHHsh"

1) Do you have a signature scent? And if so... What is it and why do you love it?

I actually have two, currently. Narciso by Narciso Rodriguez...definitely my go-to. I remember when it first came out, I was working in Nordstrom at Smashbox, and the girl at the Lancome counter introduced me to it, and I had to have it. It smells amazing, I get so many compliments. Second is a cheapie that I've been wearing since high school (I'm dating myself, now lol) Auric Blends perfume oil in Egyptian Goddess. This is my real signature... but it was a lot more rare back then. I never used to tell people what it was, but now its recognizable so the jig is up, haha. To this day whenever I wear it I get stopped at least once and told how amazing I smell. And it's super cheap, like $6 for a rollerball that lasts forever. LOVE. I'll wear this until the day I die.



2) False Eyelashes... Love em or Hate em?

If by love em you mean "never leaves the house without em" , then love. And I most usually wear two pairs at a time. My favorite are the demi wispies, they're perfect for a sexy eye look, and they look good on everybody. The trick is trimming to fit your eye, and also perfectly timing the glue...it has to be tacky. I apply glue to strip, wait exactly 30 secs (I time with my phone timer), and then apply. I wear them so often, it takes me like a minute to apply, faster than applying mascara. If you're newer to it and can't seem to get it right, aside from those tricks it helps to cut the strip in half and apply in sections. Then line with black liner to hide the lash surgery, lol. You can also do this if you wear two pairs, only cut the first. once the sections are placed, add another full strip on top.




3) If you had to nominate 3 beauty products into the "Beauty Product Hall Of Fame" what would they be?

Oh boy...only three? I'd have to say Lancome Effacernes concealer, Aquaphor, and Shu Uemura eyelash curler. the Effacernes is lightweight, covers everything, and melts into skin. Aquaphor is versatile - chapped lips, ragged cuticles, eye gloss, condition/darken eyelashes, soothe, moisturize, you name it. And the eyelash curler? Helloooo pretty eyes- with or without mascara.



4) How do you keep your skin so beautiful? (You really have gorgeous skin!!)

Thank you! I actually did a post about it here (http://www.ferohhhsh.com/2009/10/beauty-411-ferohhhsh-faves-for-flawless.html)

With the barrage of products out there, it's easy to get confused and do more damage than good. I love beauty products as much as the next person, but when it comes to skin, LESS IS MORE! My routine is really simple.... I wash my face with Aveeno Moisturizing bar, and moisturize with Bare Escentuals Rare Minerals Purely Nourishing Moisture. I switched to mineral foundation. But more importantly, I PAY ATTENTION to my skin. I don't suffocate it in product, and I only do whats needed. Some days, I may need eye cream so I'll use it. Some days I don't, so I skip it. i only exfoliate when necessary... might be 2x a week, might be 2 times a month! Some days I don't even need moisturizer. Some people don't know realize it, but using a bunch of products that your skin doesn't need can actually have an ADVERSE effect. Seriously, it's hard to leave it alone when you're a product junkie like me, but its worth it. My skin has never looked better.




5) What is your biggest beauty pet peeve on others?

Ok, this is easy - I can't stand when girls wear the lightest, whitest, flesh toned lipstick that they can find. otherwise pretty girls, flawless makeup, pretty hair, CORPSE LIPS. It's not sexy, you look like an idiot. Just STOP. can anyone really find me ONE guy who thinks this is an attractive look? I have a friend whose wife does this, and it's a shame because otherwise she is one of the most attractive girls I've seen....I just want to hold her down and scrub her lips.
This goes double for those who line their corpse lips with the darkest brown liner that they can find. I've had to refrain from bitchslapping a few of you. One day I'm going to lose my restraint...consider yourself warned.

*****Bonus Question*****

*Favorite scent on a man? I'm going to date myself again here...but throughout the years, through all of the scent innovations...nothing gets me like old-school Fahrenheit. YUM ;)



Great answers! Thanx so much Dani:)

Be sure to bookmark FerOHHHsh and follow Dani on Twitter . Also, please stop by "Ellen's Page" and say a much needed and so appreciated prayer.

For project inquiries/proposals or just plain good beauty/fashion advice you can email Dani at Dani@ferohhhsh.com

It's none other than the lovely and always glamorous Kim Kardashian...

Troy Jensen, a phenomenal makeup artist and someone who's talent and imagination inspires me on a daily basis, transformed Kim Kardashian into a bewitching "Twillight-ish" enchantress. At first I was rather surprised at the fact that this was a picture of Kim Dash, but then I thought about it, and with her fabulous features combined with Troy Jensen's limitless talent anything look is possible. It's a definite departure from her normal look though and I admire her for doing it...well done Kim and Troy.

"Don't tell me the sky's the limit, there are footprints on the moon!!" -Anonymous



My very wise 16 year old cousin Sarah Bear brought that quote to my attention and I love love love it! I have found two unique individuals, photographer James Johnson and fashion stylist Tashi Monroe who are truly rising stars and their possibilities are limitless. They have natural talent combined with a passion for what they do and a hunger for success and the cherry on top is that they are just all around cool people. Let me introduce you:



"Photography is truth.” -Jean-Luc Godard



James Johnson (JJ to me, Mr.Johnson to you!!)

Camden NJ raised James Johnson actually started out in music production, at which he was/is quite talented. He was introduced to photography by Devin Wade, also a extremely talented photographer and James's mentor. Once James held that camera in his hand and took that 1st photo...he was hooked. In the short time he has been working in photography he has already shot fashion shows,catalogs,editorials, models,and music artists, including Young Leek and fellow rising star model Joslynne Hood. His passion is endless, his talent is natural and his style is unique. He is a friend I adore and a photographer I can't wait to work with. Check him out...

Meet Mz.Tashi Monroe:



"Zest is the secret of all beauty. There is no beauty that is attractive without zest." -Christian Dior









Mr.Dior was quite right and Tashi has zest, a zest for fashion and a zest for life. Her energy is electric and infectious. Her style is one of a kind, the epitome of original. Although she is an amazing stylist she also has her hand on the pulse of all things hot. If you want to know about an up and coming music artist, movie, trend etc...she's the chick you go to. She would be an absolute delight to have on set and the has the vision and talent to bring whatever concept you throw at her to life. Her love of retro and vintage combined with her knowledge of what's hot right now puts her at the top of my "Must Work With" list!! If you don't know her, you need to...Read her oh so fabulous blog:
