Elle's Workout Yoga DVD

If anyone has tried this DVD out, I'm interested in your feedback as I've been using Jillian Michaels' Yoga Meltdown DVD, which is fantastic.

It has 2-30 minute power workouts with level 1 & level 2 poses. Level 1 includes sun salutation sequences & planks while level 2 is more of power poses ie the wheel.

Which Perfume Scent Is Right For You

[Elle] also has an interesting write-up about perfumes in the Nov US Edition, including a bit about Thierry Mugler's "Angel" perfume which has recently made a come-back, my mom's favorite perfume ATM.

The Story of Chanel No. 5 Perfume

[Elle] has a story about the long-lasting Chanel fragrance & its' designer Coco. Kind of interesting as is any book or movie about the famous fashion haus.

I've collected a few fashion books & this is one of them which I really enjoyed it.

Cheryl Cole in Print

I love how singer Cheryl Cole wears her print, with her bracelet over her cuff.  Her heavy eyeliner & lighter makeup suits the print really well.

U don't have to get all of your stuff from top designers, let's face it.  Not everyone can.  U may need to find something in between that has quality & is affordable.  U could look to BCBG, BEBE, Guess, or yes,even sample stores.

I'm actually not a "label" person.   I like Gucci, Hugo Boss, Versace, Jessica Simpson & Betsey Johnson; AMY MARIE. But, I only stand behind labels that are worth the dollars.

L'eau D'Issey by Issey Miyake Is a Fantastic Scent for Men

Designed by a Japanese fashion designer, I would give this men's fragrance 5 stars.  L'eau D'Issey has a musky breezy scent with lemon mint undertones.  That's how it smells to me..

[Askmen.com] has an article on how to pick a cologne.  Not all scents smell just as they do in the bottle, as I'm sure you know.

Bow Ties Are In Baby!

From clip-ons to pre-tied, with texture or as the norm, bow ties are back and [GQ] will tell U all about them.

This bow tie no. is by Marc by Marc Jacobs.

Swizz Beatz Has His Style Goin On For October's GQ Mag

Swizz Beatz has it going on with his candy-stripped bow tie by Band of Outsiders, shirt by Thom Browne NY & suit by Boss Black.

The Perry Ellis Portfolio fedora & Paul Smith Spec sunglasses complete the look.

A Good Man Deserves A Good Watch


If U can't afford a new car for your man, a watch is always a nice gift.

The watch on the left is a Breitling and the watch on the right is a Cartier.
