VIDEO STYLE: RUDE BOY

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Celeb Looks Revealed, FASHION, Video Style

Designers from Rihanna’s video Rude Boy revealed.

By now I’m sure everyone has seen the latest video from Rihanna, Rude Boy. The video is reminiscent of artwork from the Pop Art era and contains explosions of color – very different from the usual dark and grudge-glam feel of Rihanna’s previous videos.

The video was style by Rihanna’s go-to stylist, Mariel Haenn. Haenn talks about why this shoot was her favorite:

This shoot was one of my favorites, not just because I’m working with all my friends but because the creatives allowed us to pull the most ridiculous of things. Neon Pink Indian headdress anyone? Or maybe a head band with dollar bills? Bustier made of vintage records, sure why not. We got to custom make a few looks in there which is always fun.

Most of the Rude Boy’s costumes were custom, designed by Christian Louboutin, Mariel Haenn, Jeremy Scott, Boxing Kitten and Rihinna herself.

For the Drummer Girl look, Rihanna wore a one-sleeve dress made of vintage albums.

Rihanna fringe shorts from the rudeboy video, designer revealed

For the look featured throughout the video, Rihanna wore a black & sheer cropped top, fringe shorts and leopard, lace-up boots. Rihanna designed the fringe shorts, which features the colors of the Jamaican flag. Christian Louboutin designed the leopard, laced-up OTK boots. They’re an altered version of the Christian Louboutin Supra Fifre boots, which were released last season in black.

Stylist Mariel paired Rihanna’s gold catsuit with a leopard hat and pair of black & gold booties. The booties are the Raphael Young Eagle One A.

Mariel Haenn created the zebra-print cat suit by drawing on a flat mannequin, then having a textile painter transfer the image into fabric.

Gabba Gabba! crew). Mariel designed the necklaces using printed fabric applied over foam tubing.

Yes! The Chrissie Morris Sunbeam Cutout heels have finally hit the scene, worn by Savannah Brinson, Labron James’ live-in girlfriend. Recall, I recently posted the decadent heels, which contain stingray, python and suede and retail for almost $1,400.00. Great choice Savannah!

WATCH THIS: NOOKA ZUB ZENH

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Watch This

If you love watches, but looking for something different, Nooka watches are where it’s at.  The watches not only have a modern design, but also an interesting time keeping display.


Nooka Unisex Zub Zehn Glow In The Dark Watch

Zub ZenH’s analog display includes a time display of dashes and circles.  The number of dashes within the top two rows represent the hour, the third row represents minutes and fourth row represents seconds.

Each watch is made of a molded polyurethane band, polyurethane case and a plastic bezel and is water resistant up to 99 feet.  They come in a rainbow of colors, as well as a white glow-in-the-dark option (seen at top).  The bands are also available in a wide and slim watch band option.

They’re affordable, priced between $109.00 and $150.00, perfectly price for gift giving. Now all you need is my address? ;-)

BEST DRESSED: ISSA ASYMMETRIC

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Best Dressed, FASHION

I’ve been absolutely obsessed with this Issa Asymmetric dress.  The dress looks like a 2-in-1 dress, with the top of the dress containing one long sleeve, with a slit starting at the elbow, and a cap sleeve on the opposite side.  The asymmetric top of the dress is draped across the tummy.  And the bottom of the dress contains a monochromatic animal print.

My single grievance with this dress is the open-slit sleeve.  Issa is known for draping and kimono sleeves, but the designer should have resisted the over design of the sleeve on this piece.  The sleeve would have looked great closed and fitted. Doesn’t take a miracle, just a tailor…

Ideally, I would love to see this dress styled with monochromatic accessories trimmed in gold.  No necklace, just eye-catching earings, gloves and/or cocktail ring and simple, but stunning pumps.

Wonders who’ll be the first to rock this on the red carpet.

The dress retails at Net-A-Porter for $675.

PATRICIA FIELD X KEITH HARING

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under FASHION

keith haring capsule collection by patricia field

In conjuction with the 20th anniversary of Keith Haring’s passing, Patricia Field has released the Keith Haring by House of Field collection.  The capsule line features pieces inspired by the late artists’ defining work.

Keither Haring started as a graffitti artist, who went from drawing on the black, unused ad spaces on subways, to an iconic artists of the pop art era.  He was most known for his bright colors and bold lines.  His works could be considered “art in motion” as figures seemed to move and pop of the medium, as if in 3D.

Haring’s most notable characters are the “Rading Boy,” which became his calling symbol early in his career, as well as the “Three-Eyed Face.”  Both figures are heavily used throughout the collection by Patricia Fields.  The pieces are priced from $72.00 (a scarf) to $840.00 (a corseted gown).  Most pieces cost an average of $150.00.

So far my favorite are the Patch jeans, Radiant Boy dress, Three-Eyed scarf and the clutches.

GOOD BUY: KITSON OUTLET

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Fab Baby, Good Buys, Hot Heels, Sale

A few weeks ago I took a trip to the Santa Monica Promenade at 3rd Street to visit the Apple Store. Of course a visit to the SMP isn’t complete without at least browsing the various shoe stores along the 3 block shopping area. In doing so, I spotted the Kitson outlet, located within the old Border’s bookstore location.

I hit gold! There were tons of shoes available for approximately 50% off. Among the wide selection of brands were L.A.M.B., The Reports (Report & Report Signature), Dolce Vita and Emilio Pucci, just to name a few.

I was initially smitten with the Elizabeth & James Linda caged pumps. The open toe, caged booties pumps are made with stingray leather, which give them a textured feel. There’s an exposed zipper up the vamp of the shoe. And it all sits on top of a 4-inch heel, which is my maximum heel height for a non-platform.

And unlike most 4-inch heels, these were incredibly comfortable on my feet. I had foot surgery a few years ago, so higher heels sometimes give me problems. I was strutting around the store wearing them with ease. I could easily wear them while I’m out running errands. Not really ideal for a full day at the mall, of course. My dogs are usually barking after a full day of shopping in my Vans…

The shoes were priced at $197.00, which is a GREAT BUY compared to the current price of $350.00 listed at Nordstrom’s, Bergdorf and Cusp. Shopbop also has them on sale for $245, which is a good buy, but not a great buy. I was very tempted to buy, but London cooing in her stroller brought me back to reality.

There was no way I was going to spend $200 on myself. Yes, I’m going through the “buying for myself is being a selfish mommy” syndrome, along with the “I want to buy my baby EVERYTHING” syndrome. I’ve eventually snapped out of this (stay tuned), but not on this day.

So we strolled on over to the baby area at Kitson. There I found some Ralph Lauren Espadrilles in various colors. They were too adorable to pass up this time. I had previously seen them for $40.00, but here they were priced at $15. BOUGHT!

They only had a size 3, so London will have to wait until Spring/Summer to wear them. I’ve since bought her a few outfits to pair with them. I’m sure she can’t wait…

FASHION GRADE: IMAN

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under FASHION

Model Iman attended the amfAR New York Gala co-sponsored by M.A.C Cosmetics – the yearly event that officially kicks off New York Fashion Week. She wore a strapless teal gown that featured a pleated bodice.

The dress was perfect for Iman’s statuesque frame – it would have swallowed a shorter person. I love how her silhouette was perfectly displayed, even though the dress’ skirt flowed behind her. It seemed almost as though her long legs were displayed under a minidress.

Her snow storm-proof hair was pulled back into a pony at the nap of her head, leaving her face, long neck and sleek shoulders to be the focus.

What grade would you give Iman’s look? <– Considering that it was a snow storm, anyone attending would get an “A” in my book.

NICKI MINAJ’S LOOKS REVEALED

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Celeb Looks Revealed

Nicki Minaj Visits Late Show With David Letterman to perform shaking it for daddy wtih Robin Thicke

Nicki Minaj was seen entering and exiting the “The Late Night With David Letterman” studio for her performance of ‘Shaking It For Daddy’ with Robin Thicke. On her way in she wore teal leggings, a character tee and fur coat. But her accessories are what stands out the most.

On her feet were the Guiseppe Zanotti fuxia platforms. The haute heels include pink, patent leather straps connected with an exposed zipper and feature a black lacquer platform and heel. The shoes were seen on the Giuseppe website (pricing unavailable). On her arm was the Louis Vuitton Manhattan GM bag in monogram canvas, which retails for $2,190.00. And on her face was a pair of Schubert Sunglasses in Black Diamond by A-Morir, which retail for $200.00.

On her exit from the studio, she added a pair of Robin’s Jeans Gypsy Stud jeans to the previous look. The jeans included a layer of gold pyramid studs exposed through ripped/shredded holes along the front of the jeans. I LOVE these. It’s a new and edgy take on the destroyed denim trend. The black pair currently retails for $442.00at Couture Candy.

For her performance with Robin Thicke, she wore a nude slipdress and bodysuit, with an applied pleat overlay. Paired with the dress wore the Giuseppe Zanotti Peeptoe Snake Platforms. The 5-inch heels include a snake and nude patent stripes on top, and both a hidden and exposed platform that totals 1-inch. And a detail of snake print hanging out, under the peep-toe, like a high-priced tongue wagging at us. The shoes retail at Bloomingdales for $695.00 and a closed-toe version is available at Barney’s for $650.00.

BEYONCE & ALICIA PUTS BOXING KITTY AND CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN IN A LOVE SONG

I came across photos of Alicia Keys’ upcoming video “Put It In A Love Song” featuring Beyonce at Neon Limelight. I immediately recognized the bold prints of Boxing Kitty. The brand is known for fearlessly mixing and matching multiple African-inspired fabrics, which result in unique pieces that have a vintage flare. And for even more individuality, designer Maya Lakes adds pictures of religious figures on the backs of some of her dresses. And not only are Boxing Kitty’s pieces of dresses, shorts and rompers unique, they’re also stylish, retailing for under $200.00.

And I’m sure you noticed that Alicia Keys wore some Haute heels. For her solo part of the video, Alicia Keys wore the Christian Louboutin Fernando heels in yellow. The strappy booties feature a 4 3/4 covered heel with a 3/4 platform. They’re a new take on the classic high-heeled sandals. The Fernandos are price at $925.00 and currently retail at Saks Fifth Avenue in black, nude or white. For her duet with Beyonce, Alicia wore the Christian Louboutin Ulona platforms. The shoe features multicolor suede and leather geometric print across the 1-inch platform and 5.5-inch heel and has gold-tube straps. The Christian Louboutin Ulana Platforms retail for $1,695.00.

TAKE A DIP IN THIS: TOPLESS BIKINI

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under FASHION, Take a dip in this

VICTORIAS SECRET TOPLESS BIKINI

I gasped when first saw The Topless Bikini from Victoria’s Secret.  My first thought was who would walk around with half of a bikini?  Well, those with enough hair extensions to cover the tatas, apparently… But the description provides that a removable bandeau top exists, which totally makes sense.  Kudos to Victoria’s Secret’s marketers for coming up with such a controversial title for this product – it definitely caught my eyes.

The Topless Bikini or the bikini bottom is actually perfect in a number of occurrences.  It’s the ideal swimsuit for moms with “the fire below” (Wendy Williams’ reference to post-pregnancy stretch marks on the lower abdomen).  It’ll cover up those evil scars, but still let you wear a two-piece bikini comfortably.

It’s also a perfect addition to any beach-vacation wardrobe.  Mix and match swim wear for new looks on the beach.  The topless bikini bottom only comes in black, so feel free to add tops with color and prints to stand out.

And for the shy girl that wants to have some fun by visiting a nude beach or going skinny dipping, this suit is the perfect introduction to your wild side.  Display the girls, while keeping the main goodies covered.

“The Topless Bikini” retails for $68.

I’ve seen many pairs of haute heels in my time on this here Earth, but these Chrissie Morris Sunbeam Cutout Heels are, simply put, jaw-dropping. And of course, like most jaw-droppers, the shoes aren’t cheap. They’re priced at $1,385.00 and understandably so. The 4-inch heel is covered in stingray and the straps are python, trimmed in suede. Decadence at it’s best, and I love it!

FASHION FAIL: ROBIN GIVENS

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Wackness, What ware you thinking?

Robin Givens also walked the orange carpet at the Miami game. Her “look” lead me to a few questions.

1. Does the concept of stylishly-wrinkled exist?

2. Clogs?

3. Does Robin shop in the kiddie department?

4. Clogs?

5. Can we successfully start a petition to ban Robin from all Army Surplus stores?

6. Is it laundry day for Robin?

7. What’s the material of Robin’s jacket?

8. Clogs?

9. What 80’s movie inspire her choice for blue mascara?

And lastly…

10. Clogs though?

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Affordable Style, Celeb Looks Revealed

Fergie usually turns to high-end designers to dress her feet, but this isn’t always required because she’s got her own, shoes that is… Along with Jennifer Lopez, Fergie also attended the Miami dolphins game. Fergie stepped out in her own Fergie Traffic Shootie . The shooties (shoes + booties) include a 4 3/4 heel with a one inch platform and buckles welcoming each opening of the shoe at the toe and ankle. The lacing of the shooties gives them an oxford feel. I’m not crazy about the Traffic Shootie, but I love seeing celebrity-designers rocking their own items, especially affordable items. The shooties retails for $129.95.

WEARABLE OR TERRIBLE: GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI BEADED BOOTIES

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Wearable or Terrible?

Giuseppe Zanotti Women's E00155 Open Toe Bootie

Giuseppe Zanotti is one of the most popular red carpet shoe designers around right now, designing both wearable and cutting-edge styles. But sometimes Mr. Zanotti goes a bit overboard and he walked the plank with these Giuseppe Zanotti Neon Beaded Booties.

The shoes include a 4.25 inch heel, delicious yellow suede and hand-applied, multicolored Swarovski crystals and beads, all combined with a very busy strappy/bootie silhouette. They’re guaranteed to turn heads, but don’t scream “haute” to me. And for $1,595.00, the shoes must speak the right words. But tell me, do you think the shoes are wearable (despite the price) or simply terrible?

Known as the girl who beats to her own drum, Amber Rose bypasses what I assume to be an open door to the Louis Vuitton vault (via Kanye), for an eye-catching item designed by the new go-to designer, Alexander Wang. The vest bag, which wouldn’t look like anything more than a fanny pack on anyone else, suits Miss Rose’s casual look perfectly. The Alexander Wang Bianca Vest Bag retails for $850.00.

Check out a few more bags from Alexander Wang’s bag collection, already a must have for young celebrities who crave Alexander Wang’s sexy and edgy style. All available at Shopbop.

Coach is one brand that has been able to stay versatile over the years. They still do their bestselling signature canvas bags. But it’s the unique bags that usually catch my eye. Like this Bonnie Metallic Tote. The tote is covered in leather chain-linked mirrors and contains a Marc Jacobs inspired chain for versatile carrying. This isn’t your everyday tote, as it’s super flashy and eye-catching, but who says a tote has to be boring? Live a little.

The bag retails at Coach for $1,200.00 and is also available with sage and white trim.

FERGIE IS AHEAD OF A THE GAME

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Celeb Looks Revealed

There’s one thing about being a celebrity that I love.  It’s getting your hands on exclusive items before the public.  Not only do they get to debut the next season’s clothes as it’s walking the runways in Bryant Park, a season before the release of the clothes.  But they also get to preview designer accessories, which the celebrities wear around town months before the shoes are seen on the designer’s website, let alone available to buy at your favorite “it” girl boutique.

One celebrity especially fits into this clan of lucky few, and that’s Fergie.  Back in March, Fergie was privileged enough to be able to wear one of her favorite brands, Jimmy Choo, long before they were even released.  I recall looking high and low for each show at the time.  I especially adore the red sueded booties.  Both are from Jimmy Choo’s pre-Fall collection.  The booties aren’t yet available in red, but instead in blue bottle.

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under Affordable Style, Celeb Looks Revealed

I’m not one to say things like, “so and so must read my blog,” but after I posted the Boutique 9 Joleen sandals, they became Meagan Good’s latest favorite pair of shoes.  But since they’re hot, and only a little over one hundred bucks, I’ll take the credit for this one.  Just kidding.  But I am happy to see Meagan bringing attention to another affordable brand.  The natural colored sandals are available at endless, while the black pair are available at zappos.  Get them while they’re hot.  Her last pair of Bebe’s sold out in days.
