Craic Crush: Nicholas Kirkwood Pumps
Like most shoe lovers I have been a fan of Nicholas Kirkwood and his innovative designs for quite some time now. He never stops creating beautiful footwear that pushes the envelope and looks significantly different from most other designers. While I am not a fan of a chunky heel (please don't bring back the 90's) this one just works. It could be because of his pairing with fame designer Erdem that these shoes really work. The soft, abstract, murky beautiful print paired with the black and clear acetate heel makes for a stunning masterpiece. The pump contains a 4.5 inch heel with a 1 inch concealed platform. Get your own pair at Net-A-Porter for $1,395.00. I hope to see celeb fans like Sarah Jessica Parker, Britney Spears, Kelly Rowland and Miranda Kerr rocking them on the carpet! What do you think of Nicholas Kirkwood and Erdem's creation?

An Open Letter to Christina Aguilera..
Aguilera's promo pic for her new album |
Dear Christina Aguilera,
Do you remember when you were on top of the charts? Do you remember when you were buzzed about for your big beautiful voice? Me either. It seems like these days you cant catch a break girl. Your albums have become consumed with concepts as opposed to amazing material...I mean you gave me 50 songs (highly unnecessary) from the roaring 20's then about 12 crappy ones from the "future" While you copy so many of the current chart toppers...why don't you do this..copy putting out an amazing album like them. You don't need gimmicks. What you do need is a stylist girl...a good one. I don't know what trusty gay you have surrounded yourself with that tells you "bitch you are flawless" and to "just have a kiki" but honey they gots to go! Lets see the girl behind the clown. Clean up your hair and makeup regimen, introduce some color into that wardrobe, gravitate to daring and more interesting silhouettes and drop that single already. With that said, I have enclosed four looks for you. I hope you will take them into consideration. I am rooting for you girl! I hope that your Max Martin single is a smash hit. I really do. I will dance to it all night! Pinky promise. Just before this oh so important time in your career...look at your girl Britney Spears..who once again is doing it better (way better) then you. XO
Forever your girl,
Scotty

Now this is how its done ladies! Elegant, sophisticated, glamorous, modern and sexy all wrapped into two delicious packages. Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale rocked the red carpet in Berlin yesterday for their film Total Recall. Biel chose a sleek sequined Elie Saab gown with a Fendi clutch, while Beckinsale opted for a lovely long sleeved white Naeem Khan dress ( Sorry Countess Luann, I guess she beat you to it) with Christian Louboutin shoes. Both ladies looked divine in their own right. I declare a tie! What do you think?

Christina Aguilera is Purple Imperfect

Demi Lovato called and she wants her hair back. Christina Aguilera appeared at the NBC press junket for The Voice in Los Angeles rocking her new purple hue do. At 31, the purple locks make the singer look tired and behind the times. Not to mention but is that a legging? Ugh. With over ten years in the business you would think that she would have it figured out by now. Aguilera needs to be on point more then ever. With a new album upon us and a new single (produced by major hit maker Max Martin) dropping later this month, it's time the singer tones down her loud style and keeps the focus on her loud voice. No one needs another Bionic flop. What do you think of Xtina's purple tresses?

Everyone knows that 2012 is the year of sensivble stripes! If you dont then you are way behind...in any case many people are scared of stripes in fear that they will look bigger but on the contrary stripes can actually make you look a lot slimmer. When used correctly they can actually hide imperfections; acting like an optical illusion. Have fun with stripes by pulling key colors from the pattern into the rest of your enesmble; even mixing patterns like the first example. What do you think?

No matter what decision the 42 year old singer makes about returning to Idol...there is no doubt that she will be "Goin' On" with her career! Jennifer Lopez treated us to a sneak peek at her new single featuring Flo Rida "Goin'On" which will be featured on the Step Up 4 soundtrack (groan I know Step Up 4) She then went into her equally sexy smash "Follow the Leader" with Wisin y Yandel, who will be opening for her this summer on her tour with Enrique Igelsias. To hear the song in its entirety and watch her AI performance watch the videos below! Cant get this song out of my head!

Calling all NYC gays!! Summer is upon us and that means one thing...the return of Summer Camp! There are very few things I need in life; tan, vodka, tank tops and hot guys. Thankfully Summer Camp at Sky Room has all of the above. Hosted by friends Shawn Paul Mazur and Marti Gould Cummings; every Sunday from 3pm -10pm you can enjoy some of the best music from DJ Martial 33 floors high. Now, how do you stand out amongst NYC's hottest gays? Well thats simple..say it in a tee. Message tees are everywhere this season and why not say what you are really thinking or say what you want that hot muscle stud accross the room to hear, without saying a word.
It's NYC why not show a little skin? So for those of you who want to show a little more then just arms...here is a tip on how to make the perfect tank out of those old tee shirts. Start about 5 inches from the bottom of your shirt and cut in a circular diagnol direction towards the color to perfect the perfect "skank tank" Thank you Marti Gould Cummings (who is also on hand at Summer Camp on Sunday's) for coining the phrase.
Can't wait to see you there! For more on Summer Camp at Sky Room check out the Facebook invite or check out Next Magazine's coverage of the grand opening this past Sunday!

10. The essential flat is key for vacation. Ditch the plastic flip flop for something a little more fun like this turquoise fringed sandal. Top Shop $90.00

12. No need to bring a ton of shoes when you have a statement shoe like this tan and emerald La Silla sandal. Start with that and you can build your outfits around it when packing. Style Bop $1,070.00

18. Where better to store your beach towel?? How about in this great tan and white striped beach bag that comes with a little pouch to keep your cash and id in when running to the bar for another mojito! A little tip go for bags that are cotton or canvas..much more comfortable then those stiff straw ones. Old Navy $20.00
19. I love jewelery that looks like it has a story. Choose something a little more interesting and that works with a multitude of items like this Brown Tiger Stone eye ring. I love gold especially in the summer when it picks up that sun kissed color. Wallis Fashion $7.00
20. Don't be scared to go a little bold. Add a pop to your neutrals with this power shield necklace. Its the perfect piece for any of the above outfits. Asos $31.00

You may notice that all of the jewelery is on the lower end...nothing worse then having all your goodies stolen from your hotel room! Just some food for thought. Dorothy Perkins $27.00
I hope that everyone has a happy and healthy...(so healthy) Memorial Day! Enjoy! X
Eva Longoria: Lean at Letterman

Eva Longoria looks stunning at the taping for David Letterman where she is promoting the series finale of Desperate Housewives. In a slinky Victoria Beckham cut out neck dress with contrasting back straps and zipper detail, the star certainly brings the va voom to the mean streets of NYC. Don't even get me started on those shoes! Victoria Beckham should be sending her more dresses and a muffin basket as we speak with the press that she will get from this. Although, I am sure she doesn't need it, I am sure the $2,250.00 dress is flying off the shelves as I type. What do you think of Eva's late night look?

With so many of my friends getting engaged lately...I thought what better time to put together a little bridesmaids piece. Not only is it one of my favorite movies, its also a hot topic for every wedding party. What will the bride make us wear?! Well brides listen up! Yes it is your day but don't you want your friends to look great too? They are a reflection of you after all. With that said, try to go for cuts that will flatter every body type. Chiffon is a great fabric to use for this, not only does it move beautifully when walking down the aisle, it can hide a lot of imperfections. Try to glam it up when putting your ladies together. Think of the first Sex and the City movie and how gorgeous Charlotte, Miranda ( I know even Miranda) and Samantha looked in their contrasting colored gowns. Tis the season! What do you think ladies?

Sometimes showing a little less can go a long way! Take a look at this adorable new trend of collared dresses. Prim and proper doesn't have to mean stuffy though. Flirty cuts and colors keep you looking young and fresh. Take these four looks for example and for more ideas look to your favorite celebs like Lauren Conrad, Nicole Kidman, Naya Rivera and Diane Kruger. What do you think? Will you be buttoning up anytime soon?

CHERYL COLE IN "CALL MY NAME" |
I was so inspired by Cheryl Cole's new video for "Call My Name" for her new album "A Million Lights out June 18th! The song, produced by the famous Calvin Harris, will have the dance floors full all Summer long. This will definitely be the song that will make her a US sensation...watch your back Rihanna! The sultry video has Cheryl strutting down the streets in nothing but a printed Altuzarra Finch blazer, leopard hot pants and multi colored neon Brian Atwood pumps that will take your breath away. Keeping the neon trend going, we then see her in a neon bikini top and neon animal print harem pants while she busts out some major choreography! Now while many of you wont be going out in hot pants or perhaps showing all that skin, I have got you covered. Check out four ways you can get the look without baring all. Make sure you are mixing colors and prints but never going overboard. The trick is to pull a couple of colors from the print but not all of them! If you are simply color blocking, look for accessories to tie the look together. What do you think of Cheryl's video look? Let me know and watch the super hot video below!
