Aspirations

I believe our aspirations change over time, I know mine do! As a child, I wanted to be a ghost when I grew up to scare my brothers because they always scared me (in a teasing way of course). When I was in high school, I knew for sure that I wanted to become a lawyer - until junior year when I discovered the stage. Now I knew that I was going to be the next Angela Bassett - WRONG! I fell out of love with acting right before I graduated with a theatre degree! And today, as an adult, I know that I would love nothing more than to work for myself. Sorta Kinda Enterprises fulfills that desire; if only...

But as my best friend, colleague and brother stated so eloquently the words of George Micheal - "'You gotta have faith, faith, FAITH!"

An uphill battle, definitely. But I wouldn't want to have any warriors other than Serosh and SK Wilbur. They make it fun! So for all of you with aspirations that go with the wind, as long as you have partners and make it fun - it ain't so bad. Enjoy this life you live :).

Results of the Recession

Sometimes, what we see in the star circuit is a resemblance of what is happening in our normal yet fabulous everyday lives. People are getting married and makin'/havin' babies everywhere! Adult film star Jenna Jamison and Charlie Sheen with his wife had twins; Last Call's Carson Daly had his first child and Nicole Richie and tennis star Roger Federer are expecting. And let's not forget the marriages and engagements - Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen got married (that's a whole 'nother blog!), That 70's Show's Danny Masterson and his girlfirend are engaged, and the list goes on...

Whoa! What's going on??!!

I think we can chalk it all up to the recession. The idea of going out to have fun equals dollar signs for a lot of us, so we result in "recreational activities" at home - hence the baby makin'. And when you have no choice other than spending time with your significant other, you learn all the things you love about them faster and are ready to make the leap!

Tell me, have you noticed the change in your circle? I know I have. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with it. Have babies, get married, it all equals joy. Just make sure you do it fashionably :).

Follow Up and New News!

So, I thought it was put to bed but my mamma always said "see what happens when you think". LOL! Now, my fellow diva Oprah must be reading my blog and thinking "I'm gonna do what I want!" So she did. On Friday, her and her pals discussed briefly the Chris Brown and Rihanna relationship. I would just like to say that domestic violence is a HUGE fashion no-no. For all the divalicious ladies; it means that we are confident, beautiful and will not settle for or allow another person to be physically violent toward us. And for those of us divas that are intertwined in that life, it is time to get out. You are way too fabulous to settle for it...

BREAKING NEWS...!!

After rave reviews and high demand at the MacDella Cooper Foundation charity event, SK Wilbur will be launching a new line of denim cocktail dresses for Spring 2010. Creativity had been lost in the sauce of trying to find manufacturers for the launch of the knit tops as work can sometimes do. Now, he is back and better than ever! This will be highly anticipated in 2010 so make sure you are all on the look out!

Until next time...

Dishing Dirt - Or Something Like It...

Okay guys, this week I am dishing dirt (more like talkin' 'bout folk) on what's on & poppin'...

Chris Brown & Rihanna:

I am sure we have all "had it up to here" with the news on these two. Let's put this baby to bed: I wish it weren't so and I will pray and hope that the both of them will be better in the future. On a fashion note - LOVE Rihanna's hair and I wonder how Chris will feel when he's 80 with all those tats... hmm...

The 81st Academy Awards:

Congratulations to the cast and crew of Slumdog Millionaire who cleaned up with eight (8) awards one of which was best motion picture of the year. Whoever has not seen it needs to run to a theatre near you and do so! What a great story...

I have to admit that I didn't see most of the movies that were nominated for awards but I did see The Dark Knight. Not having anything to compare it to I think that Heath Ledger deserved the best supporting actor award... and now on to the fashions!

Three of my favorites of the night:

Marisa Tomei in a Valentino

Anne Hathaway in Armani and...

Kate Winslet in Yves St. Laurent

Fabulous ladies!

And lastly, Britney is back everybody. Isn't it exciting news? ...I think. She looks great (healthy and fit) and she even has an endorsement deal with the shoe giant Candies. I do have to say that the singles she has released thus far from her latest album, Circus, have been hits in the dance scene. Glad to see you back Miss Missy!

That's all I've got for now boys and girls. Until next time - Love Life, Love Fashion!
