Today's Quote:
To all my dear Ladies out there - On this beautyful, sunny day, which happens to be an International Women's Day (March 8th), I'd like to wish you lots of happiness, love, success and a gift of true friendship with another woman. Stay healthy and beautiful...
International Women’s Day (IWD) is marked on the 8th of March every year. It is a major day of global celebration of women. In different regions the focus of the celebrations ranges from general celebration of respect, appreciation and love towards women to a celebration for women’s economic, political and social achievements.
Started as a Socialist political event, the holiday blended in the culture of many countries, primarily Eastern Europe, Russia, and the former Soviet block. In many regions, the day lost its political flavour, and became simply an occasion for men to express their love for women in a way somewhat similar to a mixture of Mother’s Day and St Valentine’s Day. In other regions, however, the original political and human rights theme designated by the United Nations runs strong, and political and social awareness of the struggles of women worldwide are brought out and examined in a hopeful manner.

Oscar dresses - some better than others. Here are the top three choices. What made them top choices? Couple of important factors: style and creativity, how well the dress matched the hair and accessories, overall appeal.
TOP SPEECH: MONIQUE!!! Go Girl! That was really good!
Do you have a bad feeling about the man you are currently involved with? Do you find yourself wondering, “is my man cheating behind my back?” The signals that your man may be cheating are dependent on his own personality but if you knowing the outward signs of a cheating man can make your decision to confront him easier.
Here are the tell tale signs that your man may be cheating on you.
1. Sex life changes unexpectedly – He either wants more sex, no sex, or suddenly wants to try new and unusual things.
2. He starts changing his appearance – He is much more concerned with how he looks all of a sudden. Changes in clothing and grooming can be a sign. As can joining a gym and getting in shape.
3. Sudden attitude change – He picks fights for no reason and generally has a bad attitude towards everyone and everything.
4. Change in work hours – He is always working late or has to go in on weekends. He may also not be available for phone calls like he used to be.
5. If you check his caller-id you may find unrecognized and frequently called phone numbers on his cell phone.
6. Finding fault in everything you do to justify his actions in his own mind.
7. Staring arguments for no reason simply to be able to leave home to call or visit that other woman.
8. He suddenly has new friends that you never knew about.
9. Strange new behaviors that he never used to do – Taking a shower when he gets home. Doing the laundry at odd times or just doing the laundry when they never used to. Smelling of strange perfume or alcohol can also be a tip off.
10. Increased computer and internet usage usually in a secretive manner.
11. Increase in mileage on his vehicle or increased purchases of gas.
12. Just a gut feeling that something is going on. Womens intuition is a very real thing.
If your man is guilty of two or more of these signs it may be time to take some sort of action. The first thing you really need to do is establish that what he is doing follows a consistent pattern. Keep a journal of his suspicious activities to help prove that he is indeed involved with someone else. The last thing you want to do is confront him with little evidence. Doing so will not only push him away if he is innocent but if he is having an adulterous relationship he’ll just work harder to hide it or leave outright.
But once the answer to your question of “is my man cheating” has been answered you can make your own decisions as to how to proceed with or end your relationship before you get hurt any further.
Divine color (#05), Divine model, top selling lipstick…. - That’s the summary of anew campaign and product by Coco Chanel. FYI: When I checked yesterday all the major department stores were sold out of Chanel Rouge Coco in Mademoiselle #05 Lipstick. I finally found it somewhere in Brooklyn…
What’s so special about this lipstick anyway? Let’s start form the “Back to Origins” idea:
Chanel introduces a modern interpretation of classic creme lip color as an homage to the rich life and legacy of ‘Coco’ Chanel.
New lightweight lip colour glides on for easy application, and features a Hydratendre complex to help soften, soothe and condition lips, even boosting their ability to hold in moisture, for a plumper, smoother and healthier-looking appearance. If you’re still not happy, I’ll tell you that the color lasts a long time at the same time your lips feel moisturized and soft. There are lots of beautiful shades to pick form. Maybe the reason why I love #05 so much is because it will look amazing on brunettes, blonds and red heads. It’s one of those colors that complements your color and complexion no matter what it may be. (Price - about $30)
+ Who doesn’t love beautiful Vanessa as the face of Chanel campaign? It’s the simple, yet sophisticated French beauty that is the highlight of Chanel Rouge.
Vanessa and Johnny Depp - Is there a hotter couple out there?

On December 18, 1979, the UN General Assembly adopted the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), the world’s only treaty specifically addressing women’s rights.
The following year, President Carter signed the treaty, which is commonly referred to as an international bill of rights for women. Thirty years later, the United States stands alone as the only country that has signed the treaty, but never ratified it. A total of 186 countries have ratified CEDAW. Other than the United States, the only countries that have failed to ratify CEDAW are Iran, Nauru, Palau, Somalia, Sudan, and Tonga.
While CEDAW has helped to improve the lives of women around the world, gender-based inequality and discrimination remain far too prevalent. As Secretary of State Hillary Clinton noted in her 2009 International Women’s Day message, “no nation in the world has yet achieved full equality for women.”
In some countries, up to seventy percent of women have been victims of physical or sexual violence by men. Every day in conflict zones around the world, thousands of women and girls are raped, mutilated, and forced into sexual slavery. Even in the United States, two million women are injured and 1200 killed each year due to violence by husbands and partners.
By ratifying CEDAW, countries commit to take steps to provide equal rights and opportunities to women in all areas of life. For example, treaty parties pledge to provide women the right to vote and run for office, access to education and credit, and to enter into legal contracts.
By failing to ratify CEDAW, U.S. efforts to promote women’s rights are undermined severely. We are unable to credibly demand that other countries live up to their obligations under the treaty when we refuse to accept those same commitments ourselves.
Today, the prospects for U.S. ratification of CEDAW are better than ever before. The Obama Administration supports CEDAW ratification and has called the treaty an instrumental tool in the continuing struggle for women’s rights. However, achieving ratification and strengthening America’s efforts to promote human rights for all will require a more active and assertive role by the President.
It’s time to finish what we started thirty years ago.
Please take a moment to remind President Obama that thirty years is too long - it’s time to ratify CEDAW today!
As Day 1 eased us into Autumn/Winter 2010, with a variety of easy to wear, basic collections and day 2 began in much the same way. Creative director of Cynthia Steffe, Shaun Kearney, took inspiration from modern Brooklyn style with military uniformity and a hint of romance, with a modest amount of puffed sleeves and sequins. Leather kilts, roll collared knits and chunky flying jackets seemed like a retrospective of London style, with over the knee socks and fur parkas giving it a youthful, if not St Trinians, edge.
Yigal Azrouel went for something a little more mature, with a collection of smart, but not strict, tailored pieces, with subtle details like faint pinstripes and leather inserts. His dresses were clean and architectual, and the stand out pieces were by far the seperates - neatly pleited trousers, leather jackets and a new range of handbags.
Suprisingly, Michael Angel followed Azrouel in this grown up and understated vein. Renowned for his digital prints, Angel looked like he was evolving his look, with mature draped mohair jackets, alpaca skirts and angora dresses. Virtually pattern free, the collection revolved around taupes, beiges and the occasional cobalt blue - while the stand out piece was a peek-a-boo cobweb style dress.
Project Runway’s Christian Siriano stuck to old fashion glamour, with pencil skirts and leather jackets, blouses and sixties-ish cocktail dresses, but without any flourishes or stand out features, it’s clear he’ll need to develop his niche beyond feminine staples.
In stark contrast, Nicole Miller went for a more edgy and street collection of knitted skullcaps, leg warmers and biker jackets. Pretty chiffon dresses were tucked under sporty leotards and wrapped up in shiny resin raincoats.
Doo.Ri was equally dark and moody - opting for navy and black as colours of choice. A daring trouser suit opened the show, draped in black netting, and was followed by flashes of burnt orange with eveningwear beading and a deep midnight blue trench coat. While individual pieces had moments of brilliant, the overall collection seemed to lack an immediate focus.
General consensus deemed that Preen’s show was the highlight of the day, with it’s cutesy bustier dresses, cropped turtle necks and oversized blazers. Sophisticated silks and cashmere coats finished this adult and polished collection off perfectly, and Preen cemented it’s place in the New York fashion psyche even more.
Citing their inspiration as ‘crazy English guys who used to climb Mount Everest in the twenties in tweed’, Rag & Bone opened with a snug fitting waistcoat over a checked shirt, followed by tweedy jackets layered over green hoodies and white shirtdresses. Accessories included legwarmers, backpacks and stack heel boots.
Venexiana was all about the dress - from full length gowns to cocktail dresses, silhouettes were form fitting and chic, or OTT and voluminous. The stand out piece was by far a gold strapless gown with black lace underlay that would look at home on any red carpet.
The day rounded off with Naomi Campbell’s Fashion for Relief Haiti show, which raised money for survivors and expectant mothers in the area. Joined by designers Donna Karan, Georgina Chapman, Diane von Furstenberg and Daphne Guinness, as well as models Sarah Ferguson, Helena Christensen and Kelly Osbourne - the biggest news of the night was Agyness Deyn’s double fall on the catwalk! Fortunately she took both of her falls well, and simply took off her vertiginous heels to complete her walk. What a professional!
