You Know You Want It: Kylie In YSL

We hate Kylie Minogue! Okay...we heart Kylie Minogue. However, when I saw this picture Kylie posted to her Twitter of her fab shoes, I wanted to hate her!

We can't hate her too much.

I'm A Little Bit Rock 'N Roll...

Back by popular demand this season is the rocker look.
The concept of rock chic is that of a woman who is in touch with her strength. She isn't afraid to be defiant. Contrary to first impression, she is feminine. She is woman.

The September Issue: Movie Review

You know I HAD to see The September Issue. The documentary is about Anna Wintour's seemingly effortless journey to produce the coveted September issue of Vogue. Anna has been one of legend and mystery...until now. NOW, we finally get to see her do her magic.

Without giving too much away, this is what went down:

Anna was beautiful back in the day.

*

Anna isn't really icy. She just doesn't say much.

*

One of the long time editors, Grace, knocks heads with Anna.

*

However, this is how they show love to one another.

*

Grace use to be a model before becoming an editor.

*

Andre Leon Talley is great, as usual.

*

He doesn't like to workout, but he loves to work Louis Vuitton.

*

Thakoon was Anna's pet. Lucky dude!

*

The camera guy is fat, but we will let him be fat. (Don't tell Anna)

*

Anna pulls rank a lot on Grace. Grace is mad most of the movie.

*

Photographers are more flighty than models and celebs.

*

Sienna Miller looks "tough" in the face.

*

Anna's daughter, Bee Shaffer, doesn't think fashion is THAT serious.

*

Just because a photo is beautiful, doesn't mean jack...to Anna.

*

You probably shouldn't be attached to photos as an editor.

*
Thakoon is humble, and cute. Like a Pop Tart with sprinkles...or something.

*

I believe Anna carries 3, maybe 4 phones.

*

Sienna Miller is a bit of a brat. I mean, she's cool if you want to hang out with her. But considering you really aren't known for much but dressing "chic" and screwing Jude Law (and that married guy)...I mean...let them do something to your hair.

Fashion's Night Out

In a global initiative to promote retail, restore consumer confidence, and celebrate fashion, U.S. and international editions of Vogue coordinated an evening of extravaganzas in their respective world fashion capitals called Fashion's Night Out.

Here's a few pics of what went down in NYC.Rachel Zoe doing a book signing at Bergdorf Goodman

I'm Still Alive!

To my readers, I apologize...again...for any gaps in posting.

See, my Summer was suppose to be SUPER busy. However, my load was lightened. Then, I had full intentions on dedicating all that extra free time on Style & Regalia.

So, I took a few weeks to rest. I mean, actually rest. Then, my laptop died. It's not completely dead. It's just that I'm out of town (my mother bought a home in BF New Mexico. So I'm here helping her settle in). I can either pay a ridiculous amount of money to have it fixed. Or wait until my stepfather (a businessman and computer geek) can come (he's still in L.A tending to his business) and fix it for free.

What? That money can go towards that new leather moto jacket I want.

Problem is EVERYTHING is on that laptop. And this laptop I'm on (my mother's) is SLOW. So I can't even do half the normal stuff I did on my laptop.

Also, being that this is New Mexico, there is very little inspiration. It's very laid back here. At first, I was going to make lemonade out of lemons and do street style of the women of NM.

Another road block.

1) The women here, well...I'm not going to talk about them.

2) The software for my camera is on a disc...back in California. So I can only load pics to my laptop...that's in a coma.

Slightly depressed, and uninspired, I haven't posted anything. I had to go out and buy speakers for my iPod so I can listen to music out loud....because I always listened to music on my laptop. This laptop has volume issues. My iPod plays aloud, but when you're listening to Rush, it's needs to be LOUD.

Anyways, I am still alive and dedicated to fashion. I'm just bitter right now.

By the way, this is a photo I took BEFORE my laptop died. I had to go on Facebook and copy the picture onto this computer.

Beyonce: Show Your Helping Hand

Beyonce looked great in her monochromatic ensemble as she showed her support at the Show Your Helping Hand press conference in Chicago.
Beyonce is the spokeswomen for the campaign (that's in conjunction with Feeding America) whose mission is to stop hunger in America.

One in eight Americans struggle with hunger. 12 million children in this country don't always have enough to eat. The problem worsens during summer months when these children aren't in school (that provides them with the majority of their meals). Let us not forget that this country is in recession, and budget cuts are cutting free and reduced lunch programs for students. This means that those children won't even be getting THAT food.

There are ways to support this campaign. If you buy specially marked boxes of Hamburger Helper, you can go on the Show Your Helping Hand website and enter the code found on the side of the box. For every code, Hamburger Helper will donate 18 cents to Feeding America.

And if you're like me and don't eat Hamburger Helper, you can always buy a crap load of boxes (they tend to be very cheap at the market) enter the codes, then donate the actual product to your local food bank.

Remember, giving is not only humane.
It's also chic!

Welcome To My House

My House is not my house. It's a sexy new nightclub in Hollywood. Designed by Dodd Mitchell (a genius) the club takes on the appearance of someones smoldering and enticing mansionette.

ZEVS Strikes Chanel, Gets Arrested

Progressive French artist ZEVS was arrested in Hong Kong after liquidating a Chanel logo on the facade of Chater House in Hong Kong.

ZEVS has been among the prominent figures who pioneered the French street art scene, and this isn't the first time he's liquidated logos in the name of art.

His work is simultaneously unsettling, ironic, humorous and fancy. Despite his strong following, there is debate on whether or not his actions (like at Chater House) are indeed vandalism.

ZEVS has an exhibit of his work opening this Thursday, and it is unknown if he'll be released by then. Hong Kong isn't exactly the place to be coloring on the walls.

Get This Look: Jessica Biel

Like the look Jessica Biel was sporting at a Vanity Fair/Louis Vuitton party in Beverly Hills?

Everyone has this quick look in their closets: Fitted blazer, short skirt, and a killer pair of peep toes. This outfit can be stretched so far and for so many events.

To get this look:
