and this is one HECK of a tea party...

the ingenuity of wade j. robson has astonished me for several years and he shows no signs of stopping himself.

shout-out to @cityfitch for putting me on to this amazing opening performance from so you think you can dance, season 7. =)

shoe-gasm double feature: nicholas kirkwood & christian louboutin

so as you may have discovered, i'm obsessed with shoes - specifically heels.


both pairs of these shoes make me say OMG (word to usher) and i want a pair of knock-offs as soon as possible (that is until i can afford the real ones)

the first feature is from my fave shoe designer, christian louboutin. ciara was spotted rocking these "let me tell you" ankle boots (retail $2195) while she was out to dinner with the bffers kim kardashian. aren't the just FAB?!

the second pair comes from a new name to me, nicholas kirkwood. kimmy k. was spotted wearing these rodarte corroded brass pumps (retail over $2100) on that same dinner date. check 'em out....

so in conclusion, *and usually i wouldn't say this* but having a "sponsor" would be beneficial at this point and time in order to rock these fierce felines on my feet. fellas, i'll wait...not too long of course ;-)

my latest, greatest inspiration: rip teddy pendergrass

i'm sad to report that we've lost another r&b legend - mr. "close the door" himself, teddy pendergrass has gone on home. with classics like "my latest greatest inspiration" , "TKO", "when somebody loves you back" , "come on over to my place" and many more, pendergrass was a voice of a generation of what real love feels like. so many artists of my time have sampled his music, and with me being the music aficionado, i knew their inspiration had come from something excellent. mr. pendergrass, thank you so much for your soothing melodies, sexiness and paving the way for the world of r&b music. you will surely be missed.

RIP<3

dont call it a comeback : the karate kid

i know there have been several installments of 'the karate kid', but this looks like a version that will definitely do well in theaters. starring jaden smith (son of will and jada pinkett smith), he moves to bejing with his mother, tarji p. henson and finds that he has to be able to protect himself in the tough streets of china. jackie chan serves as his instructor and my oh my, it looks like jaden does his thing in this movie. he has truly grown since 'the pursuit of happyness' with his daddy in 2006, and by the looks of it, this role was physically demanding. i'm sure papa smith threw some pointers about athleticism that he learned from 'ALI'. check out the trailer below.

the movie is due out some time next year.
