~Madonna For Dolce and Gabbana Spring 2010~

"I sometimes think I was born to live up to my name. How could I be anything else but what I am having been named Madonna? I would either have ended up a nun or this." -Madonna


Madonna has done countless photo shoots and starred in endless campaigns but this campaign for Dolce and Gabbana Spring 2010 maybe my favorite. Why? She looks real and natural, not overly done or buried under special effects. And she's never looked better. I love the authentic Sicilian feel of the photos and I swear if I didn't know better I would think these pics were taken in one of my relatives houses in Sicily rather than shot by Steven Klein in NYC. Dolce and Gabanna definitely accurately represented their Sicilian heritage for this campaign... And this "LaBella Puppetta" is loving it...xoxo


The images are to be published in Italian Vanity Fair this week...

It's shocking to me that this picture of Iman rocking, Rodarte in New York Time's magazine "T Magazine", isn't in the dictionary next to the definition of "Timeless'...seriously...shocking.

~The Real Divas Are Back...Take Notes Gaga~

"I was always a singer and a dancer, and I always wanted to be an actress. For me, it's all just one thing." -Jennifer Lopez

If you thought I was excited last week about Mz.Beyonce's new video "Video Phone"...you were right. I was beyond excited. There are certain women in the music industry that just have that "thing", the "it" factor. They know how to make a compelling visually appealing music video and they really know how to put on a show. Bey is definitely one of them. She oozes glamour and sultry sex appeal. She learned this however from the divas that came before her. This week is ultra exciting because not 1, not 2, not even 3...but FOUR showstopping divas are back...and 1 rookie who is well on her way to becoming a outright diva... It was a great week for women in music videos...

**LINK LOVE** For always providing the hottest videos I am sending big kisses to WSHH

I'll start with the "rookie". Miss.Keri Hilson released her video for "I Like" and it's quite apparent that this young woman has a bright future ahead of her. Not only is she talented but she has that "thing" I mentioned above...that natural glamour...a style that's all her own and it's fabulous.

Keri Hilson "I Like":


Now we have Mz.Alicia Keys. I can't even say enough about Mz.Keys. Her voice is the TRUTH. Her stage presence is incomparable. And I'm happy to say she has blossomed in more than 1 way. She has come into her own style, she's rockin fab makeup looks and she has that "grown woman" vibe about her and she's is wearing it well. I am loving the looks in this video. Peep her beautifully painted back and the beyond-hot purple bodysuit...

Alicia Keys "Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart":


Toni Braxton. Yup. That's what I said. I said "Toni Braxton". She's back!!!! And she sounds AMAZING and looks PHENOMENAL. She links up with the oh-so-hot (for right now) Trey Songz on her new single and video "Yesterday" and the result is...WELCOME BACK TONI!!! I am lovin her looks in this video...all of em. She even out-glams the 20something y/o blond in the video...by a mile. Her wardrobe, hair/makeup, body (can't believe she 2 kids!!) and voice are all ON POINT! Show em how it's done Toni...

Toni Braxton "Yesterday":


Now we have Janet "Mz.Jackson If You're Nasty" Jackson. There are no words... The rest of the women on this list and every other female out there tryin to do it all owe Mz.Jackson a huge THANK YOU. Whatever it is that they're trying to do, Janet did it first. And did it well. Much like her late brother Michael Jackson, Janet's career was and is groundbreaking, rule breaking and changed women's place in music and video for the better. She ALWAYS looks beyond FIERCE in her videos and on stage. Her dance and vocal skills are INSANE. And it doesn't look like there's gonna be an end to her reign anytime soon. She is most definitely in my "Glamour Whore Hall Of Fame"...

Janet Jackson "Make Me":


Last but certainly NEVER least...

JLO, Jenny From Tha Block, Lola...whateva you wanna call her Jennifer Lopez is in my mind the actual definition of "Glamour". Seriously. Her picture should appear along the definition in the dictionary. People love to criticize her abilities. Whatever... People love to criticize anyone and anything so I'm just gonna ignore them and shamelessly profess my undying admiration for la Lopez. Yup. I love her!! She reeks of glamour. Ofter reminiscent of old Hollywood...my favorite kind. Her videos contain more fab fashion, hair/makeup and accessories than an entire issue of Vogue.

Yeah, I said it. Get over it and yourself...

She sure as hell doesn't disappoint me with her video for "Fresh Out The Oven". Wearing the HOTTEST Louboutins of the season, sporting siren-red lipstick and wearing the latest trends and accessories her video is a fashion magazine in motion and I'm mesmerized by it. After you watch the video look below for some coming attractions of tomorrow night's J Lo performance at the AMAs. From the pix (provided by the fabulous JUST JARED) it looks like she is about to SHUT IT DOWN...I heard something about "fireworks"...damn... She's gonna takeover the show in true La Lopez form...

I have also provided her new single "Louboutins" Yup, it's called "Louboutins"!!!! It's my new theme song...so f'n fabulous.

~"Cinema Italiano" Kate Hudson And The Super-Star Filled Cast Of "Nine"~

Follow my blog with bloglovin´

"You may have the universe if I may have Italy." -Giuseppe Verdi

"Nine" the much anticipated film by Rob Marshall about Italian film director "Guido Conti"and his many complicated relationships. The movie, set for release on Christmas day, is filled with star power. Daniel Day Lewis portrays Conti, and my #1 idol and inspiration Sophia Loren has a starring role as well as Penélope Cruz, Marion Cotillard, Nicole Kidman, Judi Dench, Stacy (Fergie) Ferguson, and Kate Hudson. The late, great Anthony Minghella is listed as a screenplay writer.

That is a whole lot of star wattage.

Some set photos have been released and I think it's safe to say, this a is a very fashionable movie... Very visually pleasing to "Glamour Whores" like myself. And of course the fact that it set in Italy is icing on the cake for this authentic Sicilian girl.

From the photos and the sneak peek video (which I will be sharing with you:) I honestly feel like "Nine" is my now one of my very favorite movies...that I've NEVER seen. It's the best I've never had... The hair, makeup and wardrobe is PHENOMENAL. I am such a sucker for glamour...and this movie oozes glamour. I can't take it...

I'll share the video first...

Kate Hudson performs "Cinema Italiano" in the film and I have to ask... Who knew?! Who knew Katie could sing and dance like that?! And she did it while looking utterly AMAZING!! I have dabbled with being a Kate Hudson fan for years but after this...sign me up for her fan club. Bellissima Kate!!

Amazing right?!

Ok, now the photos... The glamour almost jumps out at you. I just can't take it...





Can't wait for Christmas Day...

~RiRi and Iman Keep It Original At The Glamour Magazine "Women Of The Year" Awards~

"True originality consists not in a new manner but in a new vision." ~Edith Wharton

On Monday November 9th, Glamour Magazine held it's annual Women Of The Year Award ceremony. The award ceremony was held at Carnegie Hall followed by a sit down dinner at "South Gate" restaurant in NYC. Rihanna was the recipient of the “The Back-On-Top Superstar” award and was presented her award by the legendary Iman. Rihanna, a rising fashion icon, and Iman, a certified fashion icon, did not disappoint. Both were clad in stand-out gowns. For the past two days I have read numerous "Love it or Hate it" polls on fashion/style blogs/websites all over the web about Rihanna's Stephane Rolland gown and Iman's Jason Wu gown. Now, do not take this the wrong way but...I don't give a damn who loved or hated Iman's stunning gown, all I know is that I LOVED IT! I think it was fun, gorgeous, feminine and original. I also feel that Iman is the only one who could pull it off...



Rihanna wore two gowns. A Stéphane Rolland couture gown for the awards ceremony and a Jasmine di Milo gown for dinner. It was the 1st one that has people buzzing. Everyone has an opinion on it...except me. I can't make up my mind. One minute, I love it and think it's fabulously fashion forward and the next minute I change my mind and hate it.



The 2nd dress however was just STUNNING. Period. No confusion.



So...I'm going to do as all my fellow bloggers have done and get your opinion on Riri's Stephane Rolland gown...

I want to give a shout out to "Red Carpet Fashion Awards" for some of the photos used in this post. They are my one of my very favorite fashion sites and you should definitely check them out.
