NIK, THE WRESTLER…

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under FASHION

America’s Next Top Model runner-up Nik attended the Cocoa-Cola new aluminum bottle launch at the Yard in New York.

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under FASHION

If you’ve been coming to the cube regularly, you’ll know that we’ve featured Adrienne Bailon, of the Cheetah Girls, more than a few times. Usually, it’s because she looks fab.

THE ALMA AWARDS’ MANY EVAS

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under FASHION

Eva Longoria Parker hosted the 2008 Alma Awards. During the awards show, she exercised her right to be fabulous many, many times, with 10 wardrobe changes. I don’t blame her; that’s the way I want all my days to go. I get so dissapointed when people don’t change between appearances on the same day. [...]

Ms Keri Hilson covered the latest issue of Trace magazine, and she covered it fabulously.  The multi-talented musician has mesmerized us all by her talents and beauty.  I’m loving her fits in each shot, especially the multi strand necklaces.  The single glove is a nice touch.  I wonder if the cuff and glove combo is [...]

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under FASHION

Recently the Black Film Festival went down here in Los Angeles.

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under FASHION

Just the other day, I was on Twitter talking about a resolution for folks with a certain type of toe crust. I had noticed more than a few ladies walking around with ashy/crustiness around their cuticles.  I’m always walking with my head down, as it’s usually stuck on my iPhone, so it wasn’t hard for [...]

I’ve been over on Net-A-Porter dot com caressing my Vaio screen and drooling over Anya Hindmarch handbags.  I initially saw the camel leather Moretti shoulder bag in a look book. I loved the color of the bag, as well as the chain detail of the strap, so I had to see what else the designer [...]

WOULD YOU WEAR THESE?

Author: MARLEAUX | Files under FASHION, Would you wear?

I would.  Well, if I could.  The Rodart pump looks like they were hatched from some acid filled alien’s nest on an undiscovered planet.  They’re ‘don’t f*ck with me’ chic, which is in tune with the style of one of the occupants in my head. This chick, Marleaux, she likes to use her accessories to [...]

In Jack Black style, the comedic actor arrived at the Tropic Thunder premiere in a lightening blazer. Yep, his blazer resembled the sky during a lightening storm. Tropic Thunder, maybe? I’m not surprised, since he arrived at each of the Panda Express premieres wearing panda t-shirts.

No, this is not a rhetorical question.  I really want to know WHAT WAS SHE THINKING?  Initially when I saw this picture, I thought she went to a concert in honor of the Rocky Horror Picture, and decided to dress the theme. But there are two things wrong with this scenario: 1) If you go [...]
