Get the Look: Happy Halloween!!!

Happy Halloween Everyone!

If you don't have your costume yet? AND you have a party or two to go to tonight, don't stress.  It's time to raid your closet for some easy last minute costume ideas!

Idea #1: K-Pop Star (Korean Pop Star)




Get the Look:
For the Guys: Revive an old suit, with some bright colored shirts and chains Or decorate an old varsity jacket with fun different sized pins and sport lense-less nerd glasses. Take some gel and hairspray, then fluff up your hair with a blow dryer and brush.
 
For the Girls: Run to your closest drug store and grab fake lashes, liquid eyeliner, and bright pink lip gloss apply all three, liberally. Then find a Madonna style wig with a long ponytail, re-vamp an old leather jacket with studs and patches and rock sky high heels to complete the look.


Idea #2: EVERY American Pop Diva (...lately...)


Get the Look: 
Buy a cheapie bodysuit from American Apparel, add a wide belt, tights and find a messy long wig (that looks like you've been dancing all night). Slip on some high heeled boots and you're done!

Whatever you choose to wear/ do for Halloween, have fun with it!... no regrets about your costume, because that's what drunken Facebook pics are for! ;)

Happy Halloween! <3

As I search the web for the freshest beat out there, I came across this wonderful good-ness. 


It comes from a more rare place, but the beat that is electrifying your very core is one not to miss.

Fresh Beets: Kravitz Design?

Lenny Kravitz - singer, song-writer, multi-instrumentalist musician, Grammy winner…interior decorator?

Is there anything this guy can’t do? Kravitz founded Kravitz Design in 2003 and the NYC based firm specializes in residential and commercial design, branding and more. Lenny Kravitz takes his eclectic taste and lifestyle into innovative, unique, and dynamic designs. Some of his clients include Swarovski Crystal, Morgans Hotel Group & The Setai Group. I think his designs are quite amazing.  
                   www.kravitzdesign.com



“Design has always been a great interest of mine. Even as a child, it was very important as to how my room was arranged and what items were in it. When I started having my own homes, I found that many of the furnishings and accessories that I was envisioning for the space did not exist. So I began to make them myself. As I got deeper into that practice, I became addicted to producing pieces that were in my head. Years later, after doing several of my own homes, I realized that I needed to stop and focus on trying to design for other people. Kravitz Design was started shortly thereafter. Something that was a personal passion has now grown into a company that is organically expanding.”
-Lenny Kravitz

Pop Music and Chanel

Everyone recognizes the Chanel logo, the two intersecting C's have always represented opulence and high status. However, has anyone looked at it and thought "Pop Music"? Probably not, but you're a big fan of pop (like me ;)), after this post the name Chanel should have more relavance in your life. Claiming to own over 70 ipods, the artistic director of Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld is more than dedicated to music.

Lily Allen starts at 1:37


Being one of the most famous pop-producing-Brits, Lily Allen was a chic choice for Lagerfeld to include in his Spring '10 show.

Florence Welch


Ever since "The Dog Days are Over" peaked on the Billboard Charts, Florence and the Machine has become a household name. Apparently her name crept into the abode and ears of Chanel's head designer. (Chanel Spring '12)

Inspired by Amy Winehouse starts at 1:26


Piqued by the iconic Beehive hair style, the hairstylists of Chanel in 2007 created an Amy Winehouse/Bridget Bardot inspired "do" on their models.

To conclude, Chanel is more than a brand or sign of wealth, it is a statement of what is significant today in entertainment and music.

"ONE NIGHT ONLY": Avicii @ Original Studio 54

Last night (Oct. 18, 2011) New York City's legendary Studio 54 reopened for one last time since in closed in 1986. This start studded event was a time warp with guests such Cameron Diaz, Emma Roberts, and even Donald Trump, and who better to DJ the night than our boy Avicii. This event, sponsored by SiriusXM, was decked out in over-the-top, authentic decorations, just like back in the day. Tearing up the floor were drag queens, old school Studio 54 goers, and yours truly. Guests were sipping champagne served by hunky waiters in blue tighty whiteys until the wee hours of the night. The energy of this night was unbelievable and the music was bumping. Avicii played his original tunes, like "Fade Into Darkness," along with a few new ones. Avicii tweeted
"Studio 54 that was phenomenal, thank you for letting me be a part of history! Special thanks to for a great event!"
Wether or not you were there you could still listen in with Sirius XM's live stream of the night from the comfort of your own home...but it could never measure up to the real thing!

In case you missed it, check it out here:
