Tracing all the pieces.

I promised a collage for the ballsy, deviliously beautiful Leighton Meester, so I am delivering.
She really takes a fancy to short, provacative dresses, which makes sense since she definitely has the legs for it.
I usually tend to find black dresses boring (during award shows, I sometimes want to rip my hair out and scream bloody murder," WTF IS WRONG WITH ALL THE STYLISTS IN HOLLYWOOD!!!!!!!!"). I am, however, loving her LBD choices. I find them to be extremely interesting and definitely over-the-top sexy (in a good way).
And can I say, she has probably one of the best shoe collections I have ever seen on a celebrity? Nicholas Kirkwood, Christian Louboutins, Givenchy? Hello!
My only tip for her is to take off all that clownsy eye-gliter. I have no problem with makeup, but she's one of those naturally beautiful people who can pull off naturally beautiful. She doesn't have the face that needs to be covered all up with (what my dad calls) "processed crap"; that is only reserved for Lady Gaga.

RIP the Hero in us all.

Like many, I still can't get over the death of Micheal Jackson. It has made me absolutely speechless. There is no words to describe how great he was or how wide the hole he left in our hearts. (I was actually hoping for a comeback this year. I betted on myself that he'd make a new debut, even greater than Thriller. (Just like that "darling" Britney Spears... *cough*).

I personally did not know him or know his personal life, but what I do know is that he touched us all. May everybody remember him for his accomplishments and not his mistakes.

I quote from my dad (when he learned the news):

"Yeah I know... (although) he made some mistakes, he used to be my hero."
And this is from a midage Asian dad... can you imagine the power he had over us all?
In his memory, here's from the unrivaled music video Thriller:

Billie Jean:

Beat It:

P.S. Not to leave on a sour note, but I was reading on Yahoo about what "people thought of MJ's death" and there were some crude things there... here's my opinion and what I left on the comments section:

"No one could have ever matched Micheal Jackson. No man can deny that the man had talent. His unique voice and lyrics reached to millions and opened doors to many more. He was the cause and gave the effect. God Bless Him... God Bless All Who Knew Him... There Will Forever Be A Unfilled Hole In Our Hearts. Rest Dearly in Peace, MJ.
P.S. And all you shitheads out there who try to joke about this matter, GO TO HELL. Everytime you say something nasty about him, or anyone for that matter... Try putting youself in their position. With all the media and his health problems, let's see if you can deal with it all. Everyone makes erros in life; it's obvious that no matter how great or how much of a role model/hero he started off as, he definitely made some unnecessary mistakes. I'm not saying that because of all his internal problems, it gave him the reason to "molest kids" (which is still not 100% proven in fact), but there is a difference between stating the facts and being crude about it."

No Jenny is Little.

Taylor Momsen is becoming a little style rockstar... She went from this sweet little princess to this takes-no-mercy goth diva, in like, a night! Nevertheless, I actually adore her newfound style. Completely disagree when people say she dress "too maturely for her age". It's impossible to be dress too mature for your age (just like it's impossible to dress too young for you age). If I had the money, all my outfits would be just liker Taylor's... no doubt.

Fab style comes with fab legs.



Possibly, the reason I like her so much is that my style is very similar to hers. Graphic shirts tucked into skirts. Menswear jackets paired with dresses. Standout details. Vintage style. Oxford-inspired shoes. Or all the clothes I wish I had in my closet.
Side Note: Did you know she was half-Chinese (like me! Only 50% more)? Doesn't look too much of it, but last name sure does.
