BREAKING NEWS about GUCCI not the Mane ...

Variety has reported that Ridley Scott(famous director) is in talks with ANGELINA JOLIE & LEONARDO DICAPRIO (no explanation needed!) -- to star in the movie about GUCCI (NOT the rapper!) GASP! It's going to be a film about the Gucci fashion dynasty during the 70s and 80s! Filming is set to start in 2010! This may have single-handedly made my WEEK!

Sidebar:
ANGELINA would be playing the role of Patrizia Reggiani, who was sentenced to 29 years for plotting the murder of her husband -- Maurizio Gucci (possibly Leo DiCaprio) who was shot and killed in Milan in 1995! Yes honey -- DRAMA! Can't wait for the movie!!!

Knockin' Boots?!

Reader, Alexis (everyone say heyyyyy Alexis!) -- recently asked me if I knew what boots Angela Simmons was wearing when spotted in Los Angeles with her boo earlier this week... I absolutely LOVE these boots! Not only is she channeling one of the hot trends of the season "rocker-chic" -- they also look super comfy! They appear to be the leather version of the VERA WANG TRUDY BOOT....

The Comeback...

"If you had had a perfect existence up until
now, where everything had gone exactly right,
you might not have a strong determination
and desire to change your life. It's all of the
apparently "negative" things that happen to us
which give us a huge desire to change things.
That huge desire that arises within you is like a
magnetic fire, and it is very powerful.

Be grateful for everything that caused that fire
to ignite a massiver desire within you, because
that fire of desire will give you strength and
determination, and you will change your life."

~ The Secret ~

...and with that said...I AM BACK -- StylisticallySpeaking is going to be bigger and better than ever -- I've missed you! WHAT UP?!!!
