The only thing I dislike about Bey is that she’s not being real with her girl Gwyn Paltrow; allowing her to start a ‘music career’ *cringe*

Jay Z goes pop....
… Ok, well, no not really.
Jay Z’s label, Rocawear, is opening a pop up shop in Nolita today! Oh, how I wish I was in NYC *sad face*
Mr Carter seems to be taking Rocawear in a different direction with the pop up shop and a new online marketing campaign.
According to Refinery29, ‘Rocawear will invite celebs, tastemakers, and the like to hang out and tape testimonials at the...
Bwakakaka RT @idillionaire: Hey couples who write on each other’s Facebook walls, NO ONE cares how much you love each other, so cut it out!

[STYLE CRUSH] Meet Julia Sarr-Jamois
Recently, one of my twitter friends posted a picture of a fantastically beautiful woman wearing navy & neon, tagging me to let me know that her style seemed right up my alley.

[DAY JOB] Happy Father's Day (for yesterday)
So I write for this little title called ELLE South Africa and I contributed to the ‘We Are all Daddy’s Girls’ article. Here’s my contribution below. Seems long, but worth the read, I think.
There are times when I wish my daddy issues had manifested in a typical Khanyi Mbau-esque search for a father figure. At least then I might have a Lamborghini to show for my efforts....

[MAG FAB] True Love... de ja vu
So I went to pick up my July edition of True Love today and was like, ‘huh? Don’t I have this mag already?’, only to realise that it was the new month’s mag, with a very similar looking cover to the previous month’s edition.
The colour palette of the June and July magazines are similar, except that June features First Daughter Dudu Zuma and July has the...

[MAG FAB] Beyonce, in Essence
Yes, yes, Queen B reigns again. Mrs Knowles Carter covers the July 2011 edition of Essence magazine and wrote her own cover story. She also stars in a shoot celebrating her Houston, Texas roots.
On the rodeo: It was like the biggest family picnic; there was laughter and music everywhere and everyone dressed in their Texas finest. I love watching all the people. We’d eat fried Snickers,...

[GIRL CRUSH] Zoe Kravitz covers ASOS
Zoe Kravitz, arguably my favourite celebu-spawn, covers the July edition of ASOS magazine. Here are some highlights:
On her It Girl status: All that ‘it girl’ shit makes me kind of uncomfortable. I’m only at the beginning of my career, but I feel successful in that I haven’t sold out in any way, shape or form. I feel good about the choices I’ve made, and I don’t feel like I’ve let go of any of...
