Totally Rad
We’ve noticed in store windows and magazines that the 80’s look is back in full force. At first we were telling ourselves that leggings, skinny jeans and big shirts were a little different this time, but a game that The Limited posted on Facebook confirmed what we already thought – the 80’s are back.
Glamour.com is asking how much a manicure is near you. We’re always big on the lower prices that salons offer during the week, but can’t always catch them because we’re busy typing blog posts, dear reader. Have you noticed a difference in prices from different salons, dear reader?
Cosmo has put together their top Halloween costume ideas, including a Kanye and Taylor swift couple costume, the Kardashian Clan, and Lady Gaga.
Lastly, here’s a video featuring the top 100 videos on YouTube – in under 4 minutes. Happy Friday!
Fame Kills
While her tour with Kanye – Fame Kills, maybe be canceled Lady Gaga is still busy. She is working on releasing a new line of headphones. As this article from Teen Vogue states, Gaga thinks that her headphones are unisex, but we think that’s up for debate.
NBC10 has a slide-show featuring Where the Wild Things Are styles. Most of the outfits avoid furries territory, while some of them veer towards the dark side.
The Princess Diana Exhibition, Diana: A Celebration opens today at the Constitution Center. Make sure you check out some of this style icon’s memorable pieces.
NBC10 isn’t sure if they think leather is trashy or sassy. They also recap Teen Vogue’s Young Hollywood party. It doesn’t come anywhere near Perez Hilton’s coverage featuring correspondent Coacha’s red carpet interviews of the same event. Coacha tops NBC10 because Coacha has no idea who anyone is. Happy Friday!
What a Drag

This past weekend, Gay Pride took over NYC. Marking the 40th anniversary of the riots at Stonewall, where police beat up a group of gay men at bar without a liquor license. The event took place on the same day as Judy Garland’s funeral – a woman who into addition to following the yellow brick road, had a huge gay following.
One of the men, dressed in drag fought back, marking one of the first times that gays resfused to be seen as submissive, but rather chose to fight back. The celebrations this past weekend were a world away from police brutality. The police lined the street on horseback to ensure that no one bothered the gay population that dominated Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood this weekend – more than usual, and the drag queens look gorgeous.
Also this past weekend, BET hosted it’s awards show. A bunch of stars came out for the night, and many paid tribute to Michael jackson. The O’Jays performed a tribute in addition to Ne-Yo, Jamie Foxx and Maxwell. I’m glad they performed – even Maxwell who got bad reviews. They put in a better effort than my spin instructor this past weekend who wouldn’t play ANY Michael Jackson. It was just really upsetting. In addition, those on the red carpet at the BET awards looked amazing, including Beyonce, Alicia Keys, and Kanye West’s on again off again girlfriend, Amber Rose.
Lastly, this writer at Glamour magazine needs help picking a floppy hat. I got one this past weekend for the beach. I’m super excited to wear it. Apparently picking a hat isn’t usually as easy as my experience.
We Ain’t Sayin’ He’s A Gold Digger … But Really, Kanye?
Like these sneakers?
They’re from the newly priced Kanye West for Louis Vuitton line, which features sneaks starting at $840. The ones pictured here are $1140, not including tax (or shipping if you’re planning to order online). The shoes will be available in June.
Apparently Kanye’s unaware of the economic recession going on in America these days and thinks the average consumer will drop over a grand on shoes. We can’t fathom this actually happening, but if you’re planning to save your nickels, let us know.
Our rant about Converse sneakers suddenly seems misplaced. Consider this our official apology.
