Got Edge?
From the Desk of The Style Sage
When was the last time that you were called "Edgy?" How often do you take risks with your wardrobe? Are you hanging off of the edge, are you close to the edge or are you far from the edge? For instance, let's use Fergie and Rihanna as an example. It is amazing how they attended the same event, wore the same color (grey- the conservative color? Ooops! I'm sorry--gunmetal) and each was hanging off of the edge. Fringes, leather, sleeves, sleeveless, platinum, hoops, multiple chains, gold, smokey eye, pale lips, retro and sparkle. Take a look at Betsy Johnson!!! Amazing! Leggings, taffeta, black, fuschia, bright lips, dark liner and fun. Get Edge!

Vivica & Gabrielle
From the Desk of The Style Sage
Vivica Fox and Gabrielle Union attended the 'Children Uniting Nations' 4th Annual National Conference in D.C. There are no words for Vivica's shoes. However, there are plenty of words for her HAIR!! Actually, the headband. So, from the neck down...The SS approves. This was a formal event. What happened? I mean, really, the last picture of Vivica shows an amazing hairstyle. Maybe her stylist was on vacation. Yeah, her stylist was on vacation. On the other hand, Gabrielle did not disappoint. She looks quite elegant.

Louis Vuitton Fan
From the Desk of The Style Sage
Louis Vuitton is a classic and wardrobe standard, at least....as it pertains to Beyonce. The Queen Bee rocks the line from leisure to travel, luggage to accessories and she does it with style. Well, then again, she is B. The SS is in love with the handbag and shoes. Although, I have seen them in the boutique(s) and in magazines...it is fun to see an interpretation of another style maven.

Marc Jacobs and Anna Sui
From the Desk of The Style Sage
Who knew that Marc Jacobs looked sooooo amazing, beneath the shoulder length hair and eyeglasses?? OMG! I love this clip, because they appropriately covered the NY "fashion" atmosphere. It is apparent that things have changed. This video clip is courtesy of style.com.

Gucci: Fall Winter 2009/2010
From the Desk of The Style Sage
Ladies!! This collection makes fierce look like NADA! Other than the fact that you will have to be a size "I just came out of the womb" to wear the leather leggings.... the shoes and bags will fit! Yes Darling, I know Summer is barely scratching the surface. Nevertheless, I am so ready for Fall Winter 2009/2010. How about yourself?

R.I.P
From the Desk of The Style Sage
It is so ironic that my last sentence, from the previous entry, stated "live a little." Today, a heroic Security Officer fell victim to a senseless act of violence, in D.C. It just goes to show you that....Life is Short and this is Not a Dress Rehearsal.
Rest in Peace....Stephen Tyrone Johns.

Life is Short....
From the Desk of The Style Sage
I could not resist the Lexus IS 250C Campaign. Have you seen the new Lexus convertible? OMG! It is just too adorable, chic and stylish. I am sure that men will invest in this car; however, it can definitely be in a diva's car wardrobe. I just may test drive it, with the top down.....just because, life is short and Lexus has given me permission to live a little.

From the Desk of The Style Sage
Fall 2009 brings us a spectrum of fabulous colors to include the following families: Plum, Berry, Mango, Espresso, Navy, etc. Dior and Guerlain are cheering for the smoky eye, whether dramatic or not. The Dior model, below, is highly dramatic. This look is not appropriate for the office. This is definitely for an evening out, photo-shoot, playtime, special occasion, etc. I believe you get the hint. Honestly, I believe the lip color is a shade too dark. What do you think? The dress/halter top is nice.

The plum liner on the Guerlain model's lower lid is exquisite, with the cheek and lip combinations. Nice, subtle smokey eye.

Home Decor Inspiration
From the Desk of The Style Sage
Home Decor offers so many styles, colors, trends, silhouettes, patterns, fabrics, etc. In my observation, Interior Designers appear to be fans of placing flat screen televisions above fireplaces. At the end of the day, the philosophy is based on the roots of the fashion industry. Is this style a trend or a classic? Hmmmmm. Change is good, right? What do you think? Would you, eventually, want to change the location of your flat screen? Maybe replace it with an amazing mirror or portrait.

Race for the Cure
From the Desk of The Style Sage
The Nations Capitol was home to the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, today. Thousands of people walked and ran around the Mall to bring hope, awareness, faith, love, courage, strength, power and support...as it pertains to breast cancer. This disease impacts us in so many ways, whether directly or indirectly. This organization has raised the bar on awareness and each of us is held accountable to take action. What type of action, you may ask? It may be a self-examination, mammogram, sitting with a loved one during chemotherapy, assisting a friend with a wig, giving encouraging words to a stranger, sending a card or just smiling at someone with a bald head covered by a bandana. There are so many brave individuals battling this debilitating disease. I say to them and us all....There Is Hope.

Jason Wu Fall/Winter 2009-2010
From the Desk of The Style Sage
This collection is simply breath-taking. The color & silhouette combinations are brilliant. Technically, Summer 2009 has not arrived and I am already excited about Fall/Winter. Enjoy!

Ebony & Ivory
From the Desk of The Style Sage
I just love this look! Estelle's image is impeccable from head to toe. In any picture or video, I have seen, her hair is ALWAYS on point. I just love this dress. Black and white is so amazing, when it is asymetrical. There are so many ways to go outside of the box, with black and white. Honestly, as a child, I hated it! These were the choir staple colors. However, as I have gotten more wise (lol)...these colors are so classic, timeless, chic and wonderful together. She did not really go outside the box, with any accents of color (lemon, cherry, kiwi, etc.). Of course, those colors would have made the look more dramatic and this dress already pops. Ebony & Ivory can be worn from season to season. The Giuseppe's below would also give the look a little edge. I just love it!

There's No Place Like Home!
Are you ready for The Wiz? Yes, the stage play is on its way back to Broadway and Dorothy has been upgraded. Ashanti will play the lead role in this classic adventure of wisdom, love and courage. It will be exciting to discover who will be the Scarecrow, Tin-Man and the Lion. If I was to judge by the appearance of Ashanti, this will be a dynamic and creative show. As it pertains to sound, SHE BETTER SING!!!!

From the Desk of The Style Sage
Have you seen Mel B, lately? Mel attended an event sponsored by US Weekly and OMG! She looks F-AB-ULOUS! Check out her abs! What has she been doing? What is the secret? Oh! DWTS, sit-ups/crunches by the minute and no carbs. Wow! Practically naked and still stylish.

Jump! Jump!
From the Desk of The Style Sage
Ladies, the jumpsuit has returned and it is fabulous. I love jumpsuits! Actually, I believe they should remain an "edgy" staple in your wardrobe. Well, only if you are a risk-taking and rule-breaking kind of gal. These are a few that I have noticed to give you a peek into the upgraded "adult onesie." LOL!! Have fun, take a risk and break a rule. Jump! Jump!
