Something New For Jason Wu

Now some may say that the young designer had nothing left to prove of his self after creating the masterpiece that Michelle Obama wore at the Presidential Inauguration ..



I for one, beg to differ! With the success that came after designing the dress for the First Lady, Wu sought to show a new fan base what he could really do. & this year at the Fall edition of New York Fashion Week, he did just that.








After his harder edged Pre-Fall collection with a color palette of mostly all black, Wu brought things back to a more simple & feminine side. The Fall collection shown at the Mercedez-Benz Fashion Week on Feb 12th featured delicate pieces with touches of masculinity here & there. The cocktail dresses had to be my fav!

" Prison In Febuary, & I Aint In No Rush! "

As you all know, rapper Lil Wayne made headlines a while back when he pleaded guilty for a gun possession charge. Under his plea deal, Wayne will only serve a maximum sentence of a year in the New York City jail system & as little as 8 months with good behavior.

Wayne & the rest of Young Money, as well as his huge fan base, have been anticipating his incarceration for some time now. He made it his goal to leave the fans with something to vibe to while he was away. He recently released the Young Money family's album debut of We Are Young Money, along with his mixtape No Ceilings & his album The Rebirth.

This past weekend, the rapper kicked back his feet & popped bottles with friends at a going away party to celebrate one last time before he hits Ricker's Island. Of course in attendance were Nicki Minaj, Drake, Tyga, Shanell, & Baby. Other faces in the crowd were fellow Hot Boy BG, Sean Garrett, and Wale.



With so much anticipation leading up to today's sentencing trail, you would think that Wayne would just want to suit on up in the orange jumper & just get the time served. But to every one's surprise, the rapper didn't get sent off behind bars today. Instead, he received an extension on his sentencing hearing until March 2nd. Why?, might you ask - dental surgery. & I'll leave this one at that!

inconsequential desires

i want to be a timeless piece of literature
that conveys the importance of you;
in order to assure you of my dreams,
and to reassure you of my desires.
i want to remove every barrier in place,
and eradicate every doubt that is present.
i want everything placed before us to grab hold
and follow us, leaving a trail behind.
i want to show you your reflection;
exposing the true beauty within you,
revealing what has been there all along.
. . .
i want, so much
. . .
i want my thoughts to be yours,
and have yours to be mine;
or i'll settle to just always be on your mind.
i want you to feel present and near,
even when hours and miles separate us.
i want endless days and never ending nights,
so that the two of us will never have to part.
i want to be able to say that there's a reason we met;
a reason that is much greater than just you and then me.
i want the reason to define what we have
and to stand for where we've come from.
. . .
i'm breathless
. . .
i want .. i want, so much
. . .
i want to forget the past, and only remember us.
i want goodbye's to never fall upon you and i.
i want the good, the bad, and everything in between.
i want to embody everything that completes you.
i want your emotions across my face.
i want all of your burdens to lie upon my chest.
i want our souls to intertwine.
i want your heart to combine with mine.
. . .
& yet, only now am i realizing that
i want too much
of something that isn't wanted in return
. . .
something that i don't need
. . .

Just Because.


i dont think you feel me, like im feeling myself!
