**flyness alert! : iman

happy friday everyone! i'm going to get better at posting more now that midterms are over *wipes forehead* lol.

i hope everyone is having a fantastic day thus far. but i just had to stop in and give y'all this amazing look that supermodel Iman fantastically downed at Alicia Keys' "Keep A Child Alive" HIV/AIDS benefit dinner (sidenote: know your status, get tested!)

she looked absolutely beautiful in this one shoulder shimmery cocktail dress. *once i find out the designer, i will be glad to share it with you!* i'm actually in search for a little black dress myself, and while i know this one is probably out of my budget, i would love to rock something just as fly.

hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

ciao bella,

**flyness alert! : robin givens

happy friday to all! i hope that everyone's day has started productive and eventful. as i stated before, my blog is going to be focused on fashion, music, dance & art *and of course side bars every now and then from yours truly* and i just love when i see ensembles that i would SO have in my closet.

check out robin givens at an event sponsored by Marshall's for Domestic Violence Awareness month. she looks fantastic from head to toe! i know i'm california dreaming, but maybe i should look into going to grad school out west so i can wear fab outfits like this on the regular. i have got to find out who her dress is by and what shoes she is wearing ASAP. love the look!

**flyness alert! : sanaa lathan

So check this ensemble out : Sanaa Lathan was spotted at the Hollywood premiere of "The Law Abiding Citizens" starring Jamie Foxx *which comes out October 16th, a must see!* and she looked FAB. Grey is one of my fave colors, so it's just right that I highlight this awesome ensemble that I would totally rock in a heartbeat. for all my fashionistas out there, this is a look that we will definitely have to imitate! :)

love&peace,

Love or Lust? You Decide.

i <3 christian louboutin. but seeing as i am a broke college student, i can only window shop for now. i was surfing the net & saw rihanna rocking the HELL out of these shoes. please believe, i would wear these everyday if i didn't go to a school that was inhabited with hills. at retail, these pigalle 100 studded beauties are $995. yep, that's only a semester's worth of tuition, and maybe a little bit more.

hello autumn.

so it's the first week of october, and after all of the rain, the sun has decided to finally come out and shine on lovely syracuse.

i've been in a whirlwind these last couple of weeks, but now that everything has slowed down, it's time to buckle down and focus on achieving these dreams, accomplishing these goals, and working on getting that degree *on time!*

along the way of course, there will be some fun - i'm finally going to make a list of goals for myself for this semester (one of them to hit that dean's list come december)

so take this journey with me as i watch the seasons change, and the change of seasons within myself.

i've decided to focus more on music, fashion & dance for this blog, so i'm in the process of thinking of a new name.

same sunshyne, different day.

love & peace--

Meet Passion <3

I love when one of my followers on Twitter tweets about an artist they have found on YouTube. And it's rather encouraging when the artist is singing about positive things. Meet Jeremy (aka Passion). He has a number of videos posted on YouTube singing covers of R&B songs, but if you take a trip to his MySpace page, he also has a number of original songs that he has composed himself that are inspirational pieces. I love discovering new music, and since it is #musicmonday on Twitter, I thought that it would only be right to share this with my friends.

Below is one of his original songs "Lemondade". Check Passion out on his MySpace page and YouTube channel.

Don't Call it a Comeback....

I'm so glad that there is now such a quick turn around for episodes of television shows to be put on the internet. I watched both part one & two of Whitney Houston's interview with Oprah (via necolebitchie.com) and I must say that Whitney is story is both compelling, heart wrenching and inspiring. It is truly amazing how God has worked in her life and it just further encourages me to keep living my dreams and no matter what road that we may travel, God will always be there to protect us and lead us not into that temptation. And even when we may fall into those traps, He is always there to deliver us from the evils of this world. I am soo glad that Mama Whit-Whit is back!!!

Check out her new video, "Million Dollar Bill", which was produced by the talented Alicia Keys. It's sooo classic Whitney, i love it.
