Do America a big favor this year and cast your VOTE, even if you never did before. America really needs some "newness" added to it. Reagan seemed to have created the ultimate monster(s) in America much to everyone's dismay but not SURPRISE! Enough Already.
Let's stop thinking about how people look for one minute and then maybe we can focus on the important things. Like "Survival". So. Let's show the rest of the world how fashionable we really are and start a whole NEW trend in the development of frankness and honesty in Politics. Barack Obama offers us that possibility and option. But it ain't goin' happen if we American's don't do our part and respond to the need for true CHANGE in the way we do things.
Click on Barack's photo and you can find out everything you need to know about the Guy and then VOTE for him.

Los Angeles, CA: For those of you too young to know or remember the 80s or the 70s. Well no doubt, the Singers and Artist from that era would have had you jumpin' to that time's Music. The "Sunset Junction Street Fair" is an Annual Event held right on SUNSET BLVD., in Hollywood every summer, in August, for the past 25 years. This years Street Fair was originally supposed to be headlined by ISSAC HAYES. But as everyone knows, we lost "Chef" (South Park) the day after the great Bernie Mac's demise. So. Some other folks stepped in from Mr. Hayes era to pay homage. People Like headliners: Sam Moore of "Sam & Dave" (Hit: Soul Man, Hold On I'm Comin'), whom Issac Hayes wrote many of the Duo's early hits. Jean Carn (Hit: Free Love) of the famous Philadelphia, Gamble & Huff team. There was Billy Paul (Hit: Me & Mrs. Jones), Michael Henderson (Hit: My Valentine & Can't We Fall in Love Again w/Phyllis Hyman), Jeffrey Osborne (Hit: Back in Love Again) and the incredibly talented & gorgeous, Stephanie Mills, star of the Wiz on Broadway. Plus dozens of hits. Stephanie "Rocked the house". Or should I say, "Rocked the Streets". It was amazing to see so much talent in one setting. We even had a few in the audience. Garrett Morris of the old SNL was there cheering on his buddy, Billy Paul.
So! If you ever plan on visiting Los Angeles in August, try looking up the schedule for the shows before hand, online. It's always on the weekend, both nights. Saturday and Sunday. And it's a great place for kids or adults. Theres tons of all sorts of ethnic food, rides, merchants and fun that stretches almost 20 square blocks. Here's the link to the Fair's Website and hope to see you next year!

  We’ve had a busy month at loosing some of the “rich girls” of society
who got lucky by marrying the “right guys”. Leona Helmsley and Brooke
Astor who both took their dead husband’s money to the next level. My
kinda women. Leona obviously a survivor who after that big scandal
about how she treated her staff, still continued to rule with her iron
fisted face and talent for saving a penny. Unlike Leona. Brooke Astor
ruled her organization with a short leash. But. Rivaled her benefactors
with great scrutiny and decision making whenever contributing to their
cause. Quite the management expert. All in all, Brooke Astor was always
dressed to the nines upon appearance and presentation of herself. She
really kept Paris and NYC couture designers afloat with all those
expensive “Suits and Dresses”. She wore them all so well, back in the
day. Leona Helmsley? Well. That’s another story. Though she always
played it safe with her wardrobe. By no means was her style that of
Brooke Astor. Yet. They both taught their counterparts and colleagues
what a girl can do with a few bucks given the right opportunity.

Here’s the “ Spring 2008 Fashion Week Schedule”
for New York City’s, Fall 2007 Collections. Of course this is for
Spring 2008 and it should prove to be a good one. Since a lot of our
American designers are really cutting edge these with days, with their
own stores, private collections, ready-to-wear lines, QVC and so on.
The collections maybe still significant to sales and this collection
should prove to be no different. So. Get in line for your viewing. Or.
Do like lots do and sneak your way in. Whatever, however you get to
partake. It’s never a bore. And yes! Don’t forget to bring your armor.
The girls are getting more and more agreessive as I’ve been told. Thank
God moi doesn’t have to deal with that bunch anymore. Have fun everyone
and “….have a fashionable good time”.

What would the Oscars look like without diamonds? Or the Golden Globes? What would Hollywood be like without diamonds? How about Paris Hilton without diamonds? Ever wonder if fashion would be as hot if it weren’t for diamonds? Let’s face it, there is a reason diamonds are said to be a girl’s best friend – they are utterly versatile and go with any outfit.
Diamonds are so versatile that you see them in diamond-studded tiaras on the heads of princesses and debutants. They can look just as good on a bride or a sweet sixteen. And, if you must go for the hip-hop or punk look, there’s definitely ways to add them to your wardrobe without looking like you’ve committed a fashion faux pas. Even men can wear them without giving up their macho elegance. You can put them in your teeth, on your purses, your shoes, your ears, around your neck, in your hair, and even on sewn into your gowns.
You just can’t do that with just any old fashion accessory. After all, when was the last time someone stuck a pearl in his or her teeth and made hip-hop history? Some things just aren’t stylish! Diamonds don’t have that problem. They go with any fashion scene out there. They pair well with other gems and always pump up any fashion. Wherever you go and whatever you choose to wear, there is a diamond accessory that can make your add the exclamation point to your personal style.

How STOICAL is this photo? It takes so little to be famous these days. Example! "American Idol" , "America's Next Top Model", "Survivor", "The Next Best Thing" .... and it goes on and on and on and on... this IS our NEW reality! When are we going to get a break. Society has begun taking young people who basically stand for absolutely N O T H I N G (simply because they haven't had much of life's experience) and elevated them, like Paris, to International icons. This brings to mind one thing. That. It is not only America that is starving for "Icons", "Stars" & "Heroes". But. The rest of the world too is bored, idle, confused and even desperate. There is also something also to be said for young people being such easy prey of this dire need to fill this VOID. Hence, Paris Hilton. She really shouldn't take any of the "blame" for societies desperate attempt to find interesting subjects or subject matter to help fill this gap afflicted by so many, many dull people. The lack of recognition & celebration of our modern day true "Heroes and Sheroes" goes on without question. This is why Paris Hilton gets top billing. No one seems to understand what a farce it is to make a fuss over someone that is sooooooooooo, soooo, well, ..........UNIMPORTANT!
Seems like we don't know WHAT the hell to value anymore. Or who? This is why people like "Paris Hilton" become such an easy subject to talk about. Better yet. Prey! She's able, all by her lack of self, conjour up media frenzy & attention. Certainly, we now know that the "Press" is always waiting for the next desperately shallow and boring candidate, seeking free promotion for whatever they don't do, cannot do or want to do. It's just all getting out of hand. As I said. This is no fault of Paris that the world is missing a champion! She just happens to be available most of the time. We await the next targeted celebrity wannabe that hungers to find world status. But. It still is sad though, to think, that people have resorted to making a person like "PARIS HILTON", a person of public interest.

Ok? Which one of those bitches squeezed "baby oil" on the floor helping to cause "Miss Rachel's mishap. That tumble was very, veeeeery shady. The poor thing hadn't taken but two steps and there she was, facing the horizon. Anywho? Let's not forget the pressure our poor Miss USA was under with Mexico's notables, heckling and booing her based on our government's policies. That was indeed, very unfortunate that she would have to have undergone that added strain of having to strut across that stage, looking pretty and smiling while being ridiculed. Not to worry though. Rachel will get over it. Mexico will too. But will the Press ever let Rachel or us forget it?
Riyo Mori a 20-year-old dancer from Japan, was crowned Miss Universe 2007 dressed in a black base gown, trimmed with a diamond set-in chiffon print that flowed very nicely on the stage. Sort of a combo of Pucci and Giorgio Sant'Angelo. All together an interesting evening.

The world has lost yet another beacon of Love and Peace, Yolanda King at the age of 51. Yolanda died suddenly of a suspected heart attack while visiting family here in California where she lived. This is certainly been a rocky month for me mostly because I also knew her. I had the priviledge of working with Yolanda as her costumer on a film and she was such a pleasant person to be around. Wishes go out to the King Family once again so soon after the loss of Mother, Coretta Scott King. The light of the world flickers silently without wonderful people like Yolanda, Mother Coretta and Father Martin.
