Beyonce is know as a musical diva but who would have thought that Ms B. would drop $14,000 shopping in London yesterday with her mom, Tina Knowles! That is probably chump change to the multi platinum artist. Go ahead "B" and have yourself a shopping spree, You deserve it! I wonder what she brought? 


So all my fashion divas and gurus, what would you buy if you had a $14,000 but had to spend it in an hour and a half? 




Alexander Wang + Music = Viral Masterpiece





I am loving Alexander's T by Alexander Wang campaign featuring Santigold & Spankrock. The sleek black and white vignette was genius. This was a great viral campaign. I am also loving the T by Alexander Wang collection, very sleek and classic line. Side Note: I can't wait to see Santigold perform at the Afro-Punk Festival in BK!

We all know that Kanye has a passion for fashion but who would have thought that we would finally see  Kanye debut a womens' line in New York this September. The rumored fashion line is deemed to be full if high fashion and controversy. What is known for sure is that British knitwear designer Louise Goldin will be help with the development of the unnamed collection. This has the fashion and the music scene going crazy but can Mr. West pull of the collection of the season?  Kanye has some experience with fashion line when he debut a limited edition of luxury scarves, which were a hit.

The big question is Will you check out Kanye's New line?
