Solange has been setting the red carpet on fire everywhere she goes! [Queen B could stand to learn from lil sis!] Here, at the opening ceremonies for the 2013 Cananes Film Festival, Solange is dreamy and heavenly in a flowy chiffon gown by Stéphane Rolland. The fit, color, styling and movement... Perfection all the way!

No one in this world has displayed, offered and provided me with the level of love, sacrifice and support than that of my mother's. I would not be the person I am without her. I wish my mom, and all mothers, a very Happy Mother's Day!!!

Wow! I week ago this time I was just chillin' at home because I knew what was coming later! The 6th Annual Doggies on the Catwalk was the bark of the town with 22 models and over two dozen doggies! It was a wonderful evening filled with fashion lovers and lovers of dogs. A great mix. Thank  you Richard Dawson for these photos... had to do just one more photo gallery!

Fashion's Final Four: Project Runway

[caption id="attachment_20508" align="aligncenter" width="440" caption="Father Gunn delivers the workroom sermon. Amen."][/caption]

Ding dong Daniel's gone! That's ALL that mattered about Part 1 of the Project Runway Finale last week. Eleven seasons deep, you guys know the drill by now... Tim Gunn visits the finalists on their home turf, have a pow wow (literally-Patricia!) and then they present three looks out of the twelve piece collection to the judges. You never know if the judges will send one designer home or move them all to Fashion Week. [Again] so happy that no one wanted to see more from Daniel, AUF!! 







Surrealism was one of Daniel's inspirations for this line... Really? In what parallel universe? You know that I can rant and rant but I'm going to stop. AND Project Runway do NOT even think about bringing him back for All Stars or I will stop watching.







Stanley bores me to death. If only his creativity matched his skill. Maybe if he removed the butt plug and threw back a few he'd live a little.







Over the course of the season I developed a soft spot for Patricia. I love that she's an artist who makes fashion. I'd be surprised if she wins Project Runway but then again, after that pageant whore Anya won season 9, anything is possible with the show.







“Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” Coco Chanel... YOU need a mirror Michelle!!! Girl, you seriously need to edit edit edit... and while you're at it, throw a splash of color in the mix. I bet Michelle was an emo in highschool. Don't get me wrong, I like this collection and I feel Michelle has the most promise. I like the edgy, punk rock, post-apocalyptic elements in her aesthetic but it always seems to be lacking one thing to complete. Maybe it's prozac? Who knows. Just bring it Michelle.
