"Three Grandmasters" by Shaolin Park

RESPECT is due where RESPECT is earned and this is just that.
Corey Beanz, Marley and Guap are three guys coming out of the "757", like myself, and together they make rap group Shaolin Park .
I have yet to actually meet the group but am crazy impressed by the work they have put together so far.
This is their first video off their Adult Swim mixtape The Healthpac.

Janelle Monae, happy feet.


Janelle Monae, dancing her happy, singing ass off in her new video Tight Rope feat Big Boi.







Of course, she is staying true to her Black & White ensemble that solely consists of suits, bow ties, oxfords and stud earrings, in which my opinion put her on the commercial map. Cool, I guess. Musically, she goes. Refreshing compared to the pop, raunchy ass r&b were accustomed to these days. Her first album, The audition kept me company when I used to sew on the daily.

Titty Tide.

Kate Moss is not only one the most popular names and faces in the fashion industry but the BADDEST. this little white lady gets me every time.






















this pictures were taken by photographer Mario Sorreniti for the Spring/Summer issue of Vogue Hommes International. The issue payed homage to beach bodies and artistic nudes. go figure.





The water shots, particularly the first one, reminds me of my favorite MOB shirt.
"Octopussy" ,oh and those space jams, OG.
xo, poelle.

"When you smoke herb, it reveals you to yourself" -Bob Marley


she's back.

Personally, I have been super excited about Kelis's "comeback".
I feel like she is the originator of being original and is YEARS before our time.
Some say she tries too hard but I'm convinced her "fly" is effortless.
She's in a lane of her own.





My whole life is acapella.

Rehabilitate, Live and Learn.




wonderland.

While doing my regular fashion blog skims,
I found a picture of this women.
I embrace the lions mane. roaar!

I did my research and found out this womans name is Julia Sarr-Jamois, editor of Wonderland magazine. She modeled in her teens, dropped out of college to pursue an internship with I-D magazine, and has since become the fashion editor at Wonderland magazine. At the age of 22, Julia is taking the fashion world by frenzy because she's something the people are used to seeing. People as in the majority of fashion professionals of course. I can relate to her style, being passionate about vintage and I think she is absolutely beautiful.
Someone I can look up to in the fashion game.

VOGUE- the black barbie issue

In July of 2009, Italian Vogue put out an issue with all black barbie dolls that I was completely ignorant of. Barbie is a worldwide icon that reaches the mass of children so an issue like this is something like a big deal and nothing short of genius.




"Barbie has been an icon for whole generations which is why I really wanted to give a strong sign in step with the times, and dedicate [this] issue to Black Barbie." -Italian Vogue Editor-In-Cheif, Franca Sozzani.




Reading through different blogs about the issue [mostly comments], I saw that people felt that they[vogue] shouldn't have singled out JUST Black Barbies but instead use the variety of races. Also, some people commented on the fact that they should have used real models instead of the dolls. I personally believe that people just ALWAYS have something to say. I was astonished at the fact they styled these Barbies to a T, each one representing something different in fashion. The fact that the Barbies were black was the icing on the cupcake. It was something never done to this extent, and I can appreciate the thought, vision and work put into it.


here is the link for the complete issue.
