Official Video: Beyonce Countdown

So how excited are we about the release of Beyonce's new music video for my favourite song COUNTDOWN! After releasing a snippet of the video the other day, the internet and media sites have been going absoloutley crazy about the video. Especially because everyone is so curious to know how the bootylicious Beyonce is going to look with her baby bump. I was personally really looking foward to the fashion. Because, we all know that even though Beyonce pregnancy will not stop her from dancing, looking fabolous and keeping as entertained.

Here is a breakdown of some of my favourite looks!

If one things for sure, she is one bad mama jama (pun intended). Here is the video. Enjoy!

Kanye Debuts his S/S 2011 collection at PFW

Kanye West is a Producer, Songwriter, Rapper, Fashion Icon and he can now add Fashion designer to his list of credentials. Yes, that right folks, Kanye West has launched his first ever women's s/s 2011 collection which he debuted at Paris Fashion week yesterday. Kanye's 'Ready to wear collection' consisted of plentlty of plunging necklines, sequins and gliter , Zipped Trousers and lots and lots of fur! Including a fur backpack which I absolutely loved.The colour palette of the line ranges from whites, nudes, blacks, sliver and Kanye uses teal and orange coloured pieces to inject some colour to the line.

The event took place at the Lycee Henri IV venue in Paris. Stars on hand to support Mr West's debut to the fashion world include Misses paparazi herself, Lindsay Lohan, Ciara, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen and Jared Leto.

Kanye used gold plated necklaces marked with name "Yezzi" on them to accesorise each of his outfits.

Lets take a look at some of the ensembles from the collection...
Whites+ Nudes
Denims +Sequin Blazer+Oversized Graphic Print Jackect
Rectangular shaped Plunging necklines
Ziptastic Trousers + Fur tail
Fur Backpack + Nude Bodycon with visible Zip
All Black Everything + ...
These stunning white strappy heels

Kanye has just released an album with hip hop mogul Jay Z called "Watch the Throne" and is currently working on various other music and fashion projects. Although, some fashion critics have already labelled the collection as not cohesive enough ;I think that this show marks the start of a long career in fashion for Kanye. I think the most exciting thing about his coming collections is that Kanye doesn't follow rules, infact he does the opposite. So it would intresting to see how he puts his own spin on mainstream trends which will hopefully allow him to reshape and remould the fashion industry. GO KANYE!

The Colour Purple: Mac Lipstick Review

Kelly Rowland

Leighton Meester

All summer long i have been desperately seeking a new shade of lipstick. At first I wasn't sure what I wanted. All I knew at the time was that I wanted step outside of my comfort zone (which generally consists of reds,pinks and nudes) and try something fresh. You see, what I love the most about lipstick is it can take you from day to night in a few seconds. So eventually after raiding make up counters all over London and researching different lipstick looks i came across the colour purple...And i fell head over heels in love!

Celebrity fans of this shade include the ever so talented Alicia Keys (see picture left), Gossip girl's very own Leighton Meester (see above) and Ms X factor herself, Kelly Rowland (see above ). I made my way over to the Mac store in Westsfield's shopping center to play with different tones and shades of purple until I found the perfect one for myself. But there was just so many to choose from. After testing all the ones i liked, the two in particularly stood out for me were Rebel and Up the Amp. What I love about theses two shades is that they are so different. Rebel is a very deep, seductive purple whereas up the amp is more flirty and girly shade of purple.

Up the Amp

I couldn't decide between these two different shades at Mac so I thought I'd treat myself to both.

Style Crush: Kanye West

Mr West is in the BUILDING!!!
More GQ then OGLove him or hate him for his outspoken personality and awkward sense of humor (generally he is the only person in the world who understands his own jokes). There is no denying that Mr West is one of the most stylish men in hip hop. Personally, I love Yezzy's confidence, and admire his fearless ability to take risks with his fashion choices. So on that note lets have a quick look at the style evolution of Kanye West.
Through the wire. Here is Kanye post op. When Kanye first came on to the music scene with his College Dropout album it was very rare too see him without his Louis Vuitton backpack and his gold Jesus piece necklace.
3 albums later....

808 heatbreak: Kanye trades in his bright sweaters for a more clean cut look. From this point on, Kanye's style is all about tailored jackets, crisp shirts and trench coats. However, Kanye manages to maintain his rockstar edge and quirky style with accessories like this heart brooch or this bright pink watch (see below).

Kanye is Looking hella cool in his ray bans and leather jacket which he then polishes off with a classic converse shoe.
Yezzy after leaving the Elie Sabb catwalk show in a tuxedo minus the bow, cause his that cool!
The Lou Vuitton Don
So now that we have taken a look at the growth Kanye's style and comes to no surprise that self proclaimed "Lou Vuitton Don" is the face of the Louis Vuitton's menswear campaign.
Mr West has traded in his backpack for the duffle
Take notes fellas and remember to appreciate where you got your style inspiration from. Scream loud and scream it proud: "YEZZY TAUGHT ME!"



And if your still hungry for so more Kanye? Here's the 1st single from Kanye West's joint album with rap mogul Jay Z. Enjoy!
