Reigns on Me...

So for some reason, I decided to change the pace up...I decided to personalize this blog a little more. I feel as though it's so impersonal, and perhaps that is why I haven't blogged as much. It wasn't because the thoughts weren't there, they were just underneath it all... xoxo♥

Fashion god: Mr. Lagerfeld!

Some of you may wonder why he is so effin great, or u may not care but MG* adores him. MG* recently found that Lagerfeld will be making a directorial debut about non other than Chanel. Although, we probably will have to watch it via YouTube, our popcorn is already set to the side for the upcoming flick. Now, if we could just figure out how to get those gunshoes, all will be well in life....♥

All I wanna do is [Bang Bang Bang] and take ya moneyyyyy!

We here at MG* have been ranting and raving about these masterpiece shoes. They are to die for!!! You may have seen a few celebs rockin' them lately but screw that, these need to be a part ofthat stimulus check Obama's tryna pass out in '09. These will be on the Xmas list if you were wondering...Until then, I'll be in my room with a sharpie and some cardboard making my "Will work for Shoes" sign. Who knows, I might be on a corner near you...besos.

(in case you were wondering who the white hair belonged to, that's the fashion god himself, Mr. K. Lagerfeld)

Nene of Real Housewives of Atlanta...

And the 2008 'Keepin it Real' Award goes to....

(drumroll please!)

Nene! At first I must say she was one to question. I mean those low cut tops, flamboyant attitude and mannerisms to match were, umm.... well let's just say they were "interesting". But she kept the entertainment going. And when it came to setting the record straight, homegirl took the cake and got Kim outta here!
("...how small of you...you look rediculous!")- Nene to Kim

and let's face it Kim's song, "Like a Tightrope" was like walking a tightrope over the firey pits of hell, Oh the agony!

"a post it?"

Even though Carrie Bradshaw will probably never look at a post it the same way again, Post Its are a college girl's best friend. Yes. Post Its are flyy.

Barack Obama 2008- Put a Ring on It

Put a Ring on It! Barack 2008 (shameless plug.)

put a ring on it!

In the words of the infamous...I liked it so I put a ring on it! haha! Yea Yea Yea so what she meant something else, that's how I'm doing it from now it.

Put a Ring on It!!

21 and I realized...

Soooo recently, MG* has celebrated all the homies bdays!! Yay we're legal right? But what does it mean when you're of age and you have not reached the things you thought you would have?!? Do you still reach for them or do you re-prioritize? Maybe its both; set sail in motion and reach to achieve.

'Thangs aint what they used to be huh?' Can someone please take us back to the days of double-dutch and Lisa Frank school supplies?? Cuz this grown up stuff is rocky. But hey, at least we can order life on the rocks now! hah!

Oww! Sandcastle Disco

Baby don't blow meeee awaaayyyy! Sandcastle Disco! Yea so, Solo delivers once again style must really run in the veins of the Knowles fam.

Bbaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllliiiiiiiiinnnn.....via Mobile!?!

Now this defintely is only for those on baller status. I mean everybody shops online, but how many shop via their cell phone?

Just imagine right after you send that text, you order that Ralph Lauren Polo Shirt you wanted?
Hmm...sounds good! Up until now that sounded virtually unheard of. But Ralph Lauren demands a little cellular power too. It's reported that the famous clothing empire plans to launch Mobile Shopping.

So now you have no excuse as to why you didn't get that Christmas/Bday Gift? Just one question, will this be on my cell phone bill?

Getting Personal...

Solange performing at Stone Soul Picnic.

So usually I blog about everything & everyone else. But, when I saw this YouTube video I straight lmao!

Like two weeks ago Washington, DC held its annual Stone Soul Picnic for all the locals- like me! Even though I was late as usual, I still rolled down there with some of my favorite buddies.(in the HEAT! damn it was HOT!) It was pretty cool b/c honestly its been a while since I saw ppl I knew, hung w/ my favs, laughed at ppl, etc. etc...I even saw a couple of performances (likeRaphael Saadiq!)...BUT I missed Solange and Jazmine Sullivan!! (sigh)

Thank God for YouTube! Becuz during Solange's performances some random guy just hops on stage!?! WTF? But Solo was cool about cuz I thought she was gon' pull a straight Beyonce and send him to the left, to the left! I know I would have...People are loco.

Garnier Fructis Flow: Memphis Bleek

All I can say is "Woooooooowww" in my Flava flav voice. Memphis Bleek aka Jay-Z's labelmate/protege/wingman/rapper is featured in the 'Garnier Fructis Flow' commercial?!? I think this is just a YouTube thing but if not I can't hate its kinda catchy.

Coldest Winter Ever Sequel!

Sistah Soulja, no relation to the 'Crank Dat prince', finally plans to release the sequel to the Coldest Winter Ever this Fall! The sequel to the bestseller is supposed to be called Midnight: A Gangsta Love Story. Hmmm...I'll write later on that title. I just hope the sequel lives up to the...prequel?? Uh, the first one.

The Coldest Winter Ever (C.W.E.) was the book!! (back in the day, I even got my book signed by the Sistah herself!- nerdy. i know.) Anyway, if you haven't read C.W.E. get with it! What ever happened to the movie??

Ashmalli did they have this in Guyana? aahaha!

MG* Spy!!

Orange ya glad you read Material Girl!! Sorry had to go there. Anyway it appears that orange is the new black. These divas were spotted around the globe rockin there orange fits. It's nice to see a new color 'en vogue.

*click on the pic to make it bigger. ; )

Cassie: No TALENT Needed

Even Lil Wayne sounds bad on this song. Apparently, NO Talent is the new black and Cassie and Angela Simmons are in style. But one of Russell's nieces (cue Kanye West's 'Put On' verse) is another topic. Cassie absolutely ruined this song and as a homage to true talent you will only hear real talent being played on this blog, if there's any left.

THE REAL TALENT Karina Paisan already recorded this song and killed it! LISTEN to Karina Pasian - Official Girl

I think I may wear black the rest of the week to pay my respect to the talented music. Somebody please find these two, they're needed in the music game right now.

Material Dolls!

LISTEN to The Pussycat Dolls - When I Grow Up (Megamix feat. Eve, Darkchild, Diddy, Lil Wayne & Fat Man Scoop)


'When I Grow Up'... I wanna be famous, I wanna be a star...well not really. But, I love this song. I mean the remix makes it HOT! It's funny cause is it me or does Diddy being on this song make you think of Danity Kane? It kinda makes me wanna compare the two groups. This song is the shit regardless, makes me wanna work out. Hahaha...yea.

Oh yea whatever happened to the girl that won the PCD contest to be in the group??

style smile :)

So I always wanted to rock a cummerbund. Yea, those things that go around the waist on a men's tuxedo. But I didn't want to wear it the traditional way. --->
Cuz um, besides being boring, that would be WEAK!!! So I kinda let the idea go until I thought of something better. I mean I really have been coming across some nice ones. Most cummerbunds come in vibrant colors and sometimes hot prints, because with a tux, this is usually the piece that ties it all together besides the tie. (like this hot couple-> lol!)

Recently in my daily search for HoT SHIT! I came across the most unlikely source for inspiration. Thomas Pink. No it's not some gay internet blogger it's actually an acclaimed clothing line that appears to be based out of London!?! Who knew? I didn't. Anywho, look what I found....pure Hotness!!
Why didn't I think of this? Well there you go. Look out for Materials Girls everywhere rockin' this smle style :)

OH YEA THIS OUR 125th post!!! GO US!!!

MG* Still Stylin' U!

What Up? What Up? Just felt like sayin that...hahah! Anyway, so if you're anything like us you are kinda hooked on 'The Hills'. I think we all have had a "Brody" or a friend like Audrina and a _____ like Heidi Montag in our lives! Well now the link between our realities will be alot smaller. LC has her own clothing line so now we too can walk around like the LC of our city.
*P.S. LC already has started her clothing line but it's news to us so we hope its news to yall!

check her out....

MG* Stylin on U!

We found this hot youtube video that shows us how to get one of the many looks of Mrs. Knowles-Carter, her elegant braid updo. We also found some other celebs rockin' a similar style. This look may be do-able, you should try it too!

MG* Update Ya!: J. Sullivan

This girl is headed for the top! Her song 'I Need You Bad' is already in heavy rotation and we hear she's a musical genius so we can expect more where that came from. Go Jazmine, you are an official Material Girl*
