YET ANOTHER CELEB PERFUME

Camuto Group and Parlux Fragrances, Inc.("Parlux") announced yesterday the signing of a global licensing agreement with, Jessica Simpson, to launch her very first signature fragrance. The fragrance line will debut in July 2008, in the U.S., with an international roll-out shortly thereafter.

According to Jessica, "I wanted to partner with a company that would be able to express my personality through a fragrance. After meeting with Parlux, I'm extremely excited to start the development process with them."


Seems like everyone and their mama has a fragrance line. Lets not forget who actually started the whole celebrity perfume line. Nope not Jlo, but Elizabeth Taylor with her White Diamonds perfume. ; )

Wasn't A Fan

Okay so I love Beyonce, but this I hated! Am I the only one who felt like oiling Beyonce like the Tin Man in the Wizard Of OZ? I'm all for metallic but this was a bit too much. She also stated to various reporters on the red carpet that she could barely stand in it because it was so heavy. Ahhhh Beyonce, try better at the MTV Video Music Awards in August. FYI: You had a killer performance, as usual!

BANGER OF THE WEEK: ALICIA KEYS

Alicia Keys looks great at an event last week in this simple black dress. Alicia has stepped up her fashion game over the past couple years. Got rid of the braids and wacky outfits and now opts for a more sophisticated look. I'm loving the look!

SOLID GOLD!

Celebrities including Rihanna, Lily Allen, and Hilary Duff have all been rocking chunky gold earrings. I love gold jewelry for the summer time. It's a great way to dress up any outfit. I found some great earrings from www.forever21.com, all under $5.00.

BEAUTY FIND: FLIRT COSMETICS

A few months ago I read Vanessa Manilo signed on to create a line for Flirt Cosmetics. I didn't really pay any attention to it, until I walked into a Kolhs a few days ago. The cosmetic line is pretty cool, they have so many different shades of blushes,eyeshadows and lip glosses. They even have this really pretty All Over Gold Shimmer Mousse designed by Serena Williams. Great for putting on legs and arms for a night out on the town. Also the best part of their blush and powder is their packaging. Sometimes when I apply blush it wears off throughout the night. Flirt blushes come in a compact that flips open to reveal a pop up mirror and blush brush. VERY CONVENIENT and so easy to reapply. Also Flirt cosmetics price ranges are very reasonable. Powders, and lip glosses are $12.00. The blush and lipsticks are $10.00. They have great colors for summer time. I picked up one of their blushes called "Pink TuTu". You can learn more about Flirt Cosmetics at www.Flirtcosmetics.com

A website for the new store will be launched later this month, followed by 10 to 15 in-store boutiques at already existing Forever 21 stores. By fall, a stand-alone Twelve by Twelve shop will be opened at the Beverly Center in Los Angeles. So this should give you Forever 21 lovers something to look forward to!

RIHANNA CHANNELING OLD SCHOOL MADONNA?

Watching Rihanna perform at the MTV Movie Awards this past Sunday automatically gave me flashbacks to Madonna movie " Who's That Girl". The latex outfits and puffy skirt is all reminiscent of old school Madonna with a modern twist. Rihanna's album drops today. I'm pretty sure Rihanna is going to rule Summer 07'.
