Jennifer Lopez Set to Release ‘Glowing’ Fragrance

Patrick Kavel — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:34:23 +0000

Fans of Jennifer Lopez are buzzing about the entertainer’s latest ads for her new fragrance ‘Glowing’. In the sexy ads, Lopez poses naked with her arms strategically placed to preserve her modesty.

‘Glowing’ is Lopez’s 18th fragrance and in the saturated fragrance marketplace, that’s quite the accomplishment. Each of her fragrances has been a hit and the expectations are high for ‘Glowing’.

In speaking with WWD she said, “Glowing is such a clean fragrance. That’s what I’ve always been out. I like soapy, clean smells. This is a very woodsy scent. So it’s not exactly what I created 10 years ago — it’s the evolution of that. At the essence, it’s still natu

Are you wondering how those 11,000 Jason Wu for Target items ended up on eBay in a matter of a day? Its because of people who did things like buy out the entire Jason Wu stock in a midtown Miami store.

Ugh, this sucks. Pissed off customers looked on as a young couple filled their carts with all of the Jason Wu items in the store, and then checked out at guest services. The user who posted the video to YouTube wrote that the pair told the other shoppers they were planning to resell the pieces.

Happy National Sweater Day, Folks!

Stella Danks — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 02:39:05 +0000

Never heard of it? Maybe its because its a Canadian holiday. But really, there is such a thing as National Sweater Day, and its supposed to be a day to wear all those sweaters that grandma got you for one reason or another.

And its not just to make grandma feel better about herself. National Sweater Day works in partnership with the World Wildlife Fund to take action against climate change. Every person who wears a sweater is also asked to turn the heat down in their home a few degrees. Ac

Its a little bit cheeky and a little bit rock and roll. WOWCH is a super cool grown ups brand that has started making for kids. All their tees are American Apparel made and the collages are painstakingly applied to order in Brooklyn NYC. Picture these little tees on your hipster with some cool bright blue skinny jeans or if you like the striped tee wear it with some grey or even yellow denim!

Father’s Day Gifts: MSP EDIT

Zara Slattery — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 02:48:03 +0000

Oh yes. That happy day when all the women in your family give you boxer shorts. And the young men, give you grief.

Fathers Day; when you wonder if youve done a good job, and maybe even pat yourself on the back because you know you have.

And its the day when you wish someone would give you the keys to a BMW X5, yet your eldest son forgets to send you a card. Hey, dont sweat on the small stuff.

Maybe, your mates will be celebrating Fathers Day with you, or your young family. Whatever it is there are plenty of gifts out there to buy that very special person in your life be it, mate, pal, brother, father or son. And these gifts dont need to break the bank.

Gentlemen Prefer Bottoms

STAR TURN: My Life With Marilyn has put Michelle Williams squarely in the running for a best actress Academy Award.

Have you seen Michelle Williams transformation into screen icon Marilyn Monroe? Run. Don’t walk. It’s breathtaking.

Playing the eponymous role in the just released My Week With Marilyn the actress is astonishing in portrayal of Monroe. It’s simply impossible to look away from the screen as Williams embodies the voice, the wiggle (she learned it by walking with a belt tied around her knees) and the fragile charisma that made Marilyn one of the most beautiful women of all time.

Impatient Waiting for Target from Jason Wu

Zara Slattery — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 03:16:00 +0000

At the moment the entire fashion world is waiting for the latest collection of Jason Wu to hit the stores. The collection got the name of Target. We know by now that it has been inspired by Jean Seberg and also by French New Wave films. This is why it is no wonder that we will find blouses having Peter Pan collars, nautical-tinged dresses and also pleated skirts. Naturally the designer didn’t forget about the handbags and the accessories either.

According to the designer, he didn’t want any replicas of the main collection. Instead he opted for offering entirely new clothing that comes with its own personality and voice, being inspired by his personality. The

3 Outfits to Wear This Weekend

Stella Danks — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 22:33:48 +0000

Saturday is (finally) here again and youre alternating between opening your fridge and opening your closet. Fridge looks okay. That orange juice isnt that old and it will mix okay with that razz vodka you have cooling in the freezer. But your closet, thats not so okay. Youve worn everything in there at least 6 times and youre pretty sure that youve been photographed in all them. So what are you going to do? Raid your roommates closet? No, her stuff is as stale as yours. Nope, youre going to take a quick trip to the mall and put together one of these kickass outfits. The best part?

new year, new changes

Stella Danks — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:48:20 +0000

Happy New Year everyone! As Im sure youve noticed, my posts here have really dropped off. Its partly due to all the many life changes that have been thrown my way. Plus, Ive been wonderfully occupied with the Style Institute, mentoring and training some amazing women who are launching their own personal styling businesses. Change comes in unexpected ways but if we embrace it, it opens up our world to new opportunities. Thats why for 2012 Im going to do things just a tad differently here.

My whole philosophy for personal styling is based on three core concepts that get to the heart of who we are: mind, body and spirit.

Wedding Graduates: Claire & Christopher

so good

Before I was a Wedding Graduate, I was a Wedding Dropout. Before meeting the man who is now my husband, I had previously been engaged for two years to someone else. Looking back, I’m finally able to admit that my first reaction when I realized he was proposing was sheer panic. However, when the man you love is kneeling before you with tears in his eyes, asking you to accept his offer of everlasting love, “Um, I don’t think this is a good idea,” just doesn’t seem like a possible response. So I s

Why it Doesn’t Pay to Pick a Wedding Vendor Solely on Price

Zara Slattery — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 00:13:47 +0000

In our business (tent and party rental) we’re reasonably priced, but we’re not the cheapest in our area. We get a fair amount of calls throughout the year that are simply price comparison calls—“Hi, can you tell me how much you charge for a 4060 tent? Ok, thank you.” We appreciate that brides and grooms want to get the most for their wedding budgets, but most wedding products and services are not always apple to apple comparisons.

Planning a wedding does entail an enormous amount of research and decision making, but putting in the time and asking the right questions early on means there will be few, if any, surprises when the big day comes—and the final invoices arrive.

Here are 5 things to consider when shopping for a wedding vendor:

1) Product Quality

In our case, tent and party rentals, the tent is the most expensive product we rent. It’s also th
