Ladies (and Gents if any),Sorry for the no show last week and I have to say sorry for the no show this week too. I'm under serious pressure at work (yes, us self employed peeps can crack the whip on our own ass also). I'm busy prepping for a few pitches which potentially could be really great for the business so please forgive me. I plan to be back on form for next week Friday, giving you the

Hey, hey… the sun is shining and I’m in a good mood. Work will soon be over and the weekend will official be here, so start to unwind and read through this week’s FIERCE LIST which includes posts on ARISE African Fashion Week, the melodic Asa, H&M AIDS t-shirt collabo, statement necklaces and a decent cheaper option nail polish .Enjoy.Rx

It’s quite simple… for me it’s between Flawless and the Welsh 12 year old Shaheen whose voice puts some current UK acts to shame. Susan Boyle, whilst she does have a good voice, she has benefited from WORLDWIDE exposure and will probably do well anyway should she win or not. For Flawless they’ve been working hard at their dreams for years and having worked with them previously, I believe they

ARISE Magazine, the UK’s first magazine to celebrate global African achievement in fashion, music, culture, business and politics has signed a 5 year deal with African Fashion International (AFI), organisers of the Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban Fashion Week.

Fashion retailer H&M launched their 2nd year t-shirt collaboration with AIDS awareness project Designer against aids earlier this month.The collaboration was developed to reach out to young people using their favourite celebrities from the world of music, fashion, sport and arts, to raise their interest in finding out more about AIDS as well as more about what the project actually does.

You may sense me becoming a little patriotic in this post as well as my previous ‘I’ve Got My Eye on You’ post and you would be right in thinking so. I believe it can’t be helped as I’ve been discovering some fantastic Nigerian talent which needs to be shared with you all. You don’t have to be ‘African’ to appreciate these artists, as they’re sounds are so melodic you naturally find yourself

As seen all over the catwalk from Marni to Marc Jacbos, statement necklaces are in and their in and looking fab-ul-ou-so.Whenever I’m on an accessories shopping spree the obvious places to visit are the high street chain stores like River Island, Topshop, H&M and Accessorize and whilst every Tom, Dick and Harry may end up in the same jewels, it can’t be helped as some of these stores are actually

I think I mentioned earlier in one of today’s posts about going into the Greenwich Market boutique named Cherry Picked earlier and rummaging through the fantastic dress from Phyllis Taylor’s label Sika Designs. Well, the above dress is one of the items which got me asking myself whether I was brave (and stupid enough) to rob a bank, just so I could continue funding my shopping habit. The dress is

H&M overload? Sorry, but it can’t be helped as I have to tell you about their nail polish range.So according to my sources the retailer launched their new make up line earlier this year and I must say, my initial thoughts were that their products would be rubbish, but I now think I was wrong to jump to that conclusion.Last Sunday I was out my cousin in law’s house and I came across her Red H&M

Did anyone catch last night’s episode? It was as good as ever, had me sobbing in parts like when the old man’s wife died to which he replied “I’m not ready to lose her” and when the pregnant woman with twins gave birth, and then suffered from a ruptured cervix… too sad.I for one will be sad to see ER leave our screens, however I do actually plan to buy all 15 years worth of episodes on DVD as

Some will say they are not shocked at the recent cancelling of the opening nights shows, all I’m saying is ‘Jacko, just make sure you don’t cancel the show for September 21, or I will be hella mad’.According to reports, organisers of the MJ’s lucrative 50 date London residency at The O2 Arena which was supposed to start in July have axed the first four nights, putting blame on “technical issues”.

Chrisette Michelle is an American R&B soul singer and song writer, signed to the Def Jam label group. Whilst she’s already won a Grammy for Best Urban/alternative Performance in 2009 for her song entitled “Be Ok”, I’m blogging about her today for her current single “Epiphany” (I’m leaving) – which I’m loving right about now. Her sultry, soft voice can be likened to old school songstress Ella

Don’t know what ‘jeggings’ are? Not hard to work out… jean leggings. A term made up by some chuffed fashion writer no doubt, they are hot, fierce, hot. The fabric is stretchy enough you can wear them as leggings, whilst still looking like jeans; however beware – they’re very revealing and will show the ‘spare tyre’ I mentioned earlier (should you have a spare tyre of course). All the major high

So I was suppose to only be blogging about their Afrika Printed Cotton Spandex Mini Dress (in grey and white for £42) as I’ve liked it for a while (but still have a ‘spare tyre’ lurking around my waist which stops me from buying it, as the dress ISN’T forgiving at all), but then I started looking at other bits from their collection and couldn’t stop. It was like I was on speed mode.Now let’s

Guys, I’m tired so I haven’t reviewed any beauty products this week… forgive me? I could lie that I had, but that would be wrong so just accept it and I’ll try to cover two next week… (so she says…).

It’s seems yet another publication is in trouble due to the current economic climate. Style bible, i-D announced this week that its cutting back its editions and will publish six times a year starting from September. The magazine, which always features a model with one eye closed or covered on its cover, a visual pun on the title, said instead of folding like many of the other magazines have done

Nothing but world domination for etailer ASOS. If it isn’t enough that they are surpassing all their financial targets, despite the current climate, they’ve gone ahead and launched their new Black Label line this week and I’ve got to say, they’ve got some ‘siiiiiick’ dresses! A capsule collection of eight statement dresses in luxurious fabrics, my favourite has to be the Sequin Linear V Dress,

Ayo, is a beautiful German born artist, offspring of a Gipsy mother and Nigerian father who left Nigeria for Germany to study in the 1970s. Ayo’s nomadic lifestyle brought her to live between Paris and New York, two of the World’s greatest capitals which sum up her musical identity. Once you hear her music, you’re immediately aware it’s influenced by her rich cultural background.I came across

Jaime WinstonAt the shows, animal prints filled the catwalk walks. It was only two years ago it came back and now its here again, however this time it’s a little different with a new rule… its out with ‘natural’ prints and in with bright and bolds.It was evident during the SS/09 shows various designers decided on using the print in their collection. The label which stood out for me was Lanvin,

People, never wait to see if you can a) blag or b) get freeness for a concert you desperately want to go to, as it’s nine times out of ten bound to end up in tears as I’ve recently found. When the news broke Beyonce would be doing her World Tour, playing numerous dates at the O2 Arena, I made a mental note that I would buy tickets for this gig, credit crunch or no credit crunch. When the tickets

Another oldie, but I believe it’s necessary to flag up the veteran beauty products as not everyone has been lucky enough to have been graced with them. Elizabeth Arden’s original Eight Hour cream is a definite icon in the world of beauty. The fast intensive treatment moisturises and hydrates the entire body, literally. Use on lips as a balm, hands as hand cream it’s the number one staple beauty

I keep telling myself and everyone else that wants to listen I’m not Superwoman, but nobody seems to be hearing me; extremely annoying.Anyhow, I’m know my regular readers will forgive me as you’re all very kind… for the new peeps who’ve recently signed up, bear with me.

I’m no follower of football, however I soon did perk up when I saw Didier Drogbra flip out live on TV, after Thursday’s match which saw his team Chelsea draw 1 -1 (I think?) with Barcelona. As it seems, everyone present thought the referee did a shocking job and Mr Drogbra decided to let the nation know he too wasn’t happy.Funny…

So apparently the supermarket shopping chain Asda are to launch a range of bra’s priced at £4 to help ‘support’ (no pun intended) customers during the credit crunch. The George range, available in sizes A – F are interested to target women with ‘bigger busts’ after it was reported Marks & Spencer started to charge the ‘well endowed’ woman £2 more for their bras.Well I’d like to ask the George

As you get older, you realised there are some things you’re no longer able to ‘rock’ like you did back in the day. The piece of clothing this rule applies to me is the mini skirt. Whilst I’ve been working hard at the gym three times a week (at 7.30am I might add!), I’m no way looking like I once did at 21 years old, where I was able to wear the shortest of dresses and not look like one of those

Yes it’s an oldie, but its one of my favourite oldies. I mean, I’ve been wearing this scent since first year at university (well over 10 years ago!), but it still seems to stop men in the street (and fiiiiiinnnnne ones may I add), asking me ‘what perfume am I wearing, it smells divine’… Ok, they don’t use the word ‘divine’ but you catch my drift…Christian Dior knew what they were doing when they

Well I’m not sure if everyone else is, but I am. Did anyone see it? Was I the only one who thought it was bloody strange? Don’t get me wrong, I understand she’s probably doing this whole alter ego, a la Beyonce and Sasha Fierce, but come on, she didn’t need to bring her ‘friend’ onto the show?

For the trekkie fans amongst us (that’s not many then), you may recognise Ms Saldana for playing the role of Uhura in the 2009 release of Star Trek. At the ripe of age of 31, Zoe is starting to make waves as a serious actress. She starred as Anamaria in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl and also Britney’s debut ‘Crossroads’ and its now she’s beginning to be noticed, which may

I don’t actually think leather has been noted as a ‘key trend’ this season. I know trophy jackets have as well as big shoulders, but leather? I’m not too sure and to be honest, I actually don’t really care as it’s a necessity I blog about this jacket.Hot, fierce, hot… the picture says all of this don’t you think? I only wish my chest area wasn’t so big, as those of you who know me are fully aware

One of the most iconic designer bags in the world it’s not surprise there are so many variations of it doing the rounds on the high street and their not half bad.A bit of bag history for those who care to know… The quilted chain handle bag was created in 1955 and it is from the year of its birth its name derives. The Chanel 2.55 chain bag represents the epitome of style and the ultimate status

Yes I’m talking about hairspray. Why? Because it’s a good one which needs to be shouted about. For those of us who like to style our relaxed (or afro) barnet and are in need of a hairspray to do the job without clumping the hair in an unattractive way due to the stickiness of the spray, look no further L’Oreal’s Elnet is the one.Use a little bit of this and it holds your style in place with a

To say I love this show is an understatement. Any Facebook friends of mine will see by my current status that I think the show is sick, sick, sick!Just finished watching tonight’s episode and it’s got me waiting impatiently for next week’s instalment, which seems like two years away!

Only one thing to say… ‘They are really taking this too damn far!’. I couldn’t believe my ears when I heard Beresford Mack on Choice read this out within his (poorly written and read) news bulletin. The whole Jade Goody cancer story was extremely sad and its something which got me tearful, however I’m not sucked in by the rest of the Bermondsey residents in thinking the news of developing a

Happy belated Easter everyone! I decided I too should take advantage of the public holiday by having a break… didn’t see the point of killing myself to get the post completed for Friday morning as all of you would probably be reading this the following Tuesday, when you returned to work …Anyhow, this week I’m talking about Michelle Obama; this lady can do no wrong, fashion news from Ray Ban,

“I thought being smart is cooler than anything in the world” said Michelle Obama to a hundred North London schoolgirls last week. Just this sentence alone from her inspirational speech sums up why I (and probably the rest of the world who’ve gone ‘Michelle crazy’) love her. She has the ability to make things which maybe considered ‘un cool’ to some, appealing to others.We all know what she said

I promised I would treat myself to new ‘expensive’ sunglasses two summers ago, but do I have a pair yet? No. I’m quite annoyed with myself too because two summers ago, my good friend worked for Armani and said when I was ready I could come in and pick which ever pair I wanted and she’d allow me use of her discount. Fast forward to now and of course she no longer works for Armani and I am still ‘

Shingai Shoniwa (pronounced Shee-ng-eye) born of British and Zimbabwean descent is the lead singer for UK Indie band the Noisettes. (I can hear my Zimbabwean friend TM saying ‘braaap, braaap’ as I type!)The three piece band hit mainstream after one of their songs featured in a UK car advert. Their current single ‘Don’t upset the rhythm’ is currently No. 6 in the charts (it was No. 2 last week)

Works on some, not on others – so know which category you fall into and stick with it! As seen on Ms Bilson here, the abstract pattern trend, works perfectly on her small frame. I only wish I could have this dress… it may help to accentuate the hips which seem to be hiding somewhere in my thighs. This trend will set the right tone of ‘understated glamour’ with any daytime frock and evening gown,

This blog is dedicated to all things I find ‘fierce’ and up until now most of the posts have been regarding fashion. Well, for this week I’ve had to switch things up a bit and include my other ‘love’ … food.My girlfriends and I try to make sure we meet up at least once a month to catch up, cuss our men, give advice, chit chat and talk whatever nonsense we feel to.

Matte textured lips are long gone and high shine lips are back this season and what better way to mirror this look, than to buy YSL’s Gloss Pur. Priced at £19 and available in a variety of colours, (I’m loving No. 4 in raspberry); I urge all users to ensure they are wearing the fiercest of heels when displaying any of their shades on your chops, as this lip treasure is not to be used anyhow.

Please tell me you guys watch this programme? If you enjoy watching mindless drivel like Big Brother, Keeping up with the Kardashians, The Hills, Snoop Dog’s Fatherhood etc, then I’m sure you won’t mind adding this one to your viewing schedule.

Has this week’s good weather put you in the mood to spend money? It has done that for me and it’s not a good thing as one is attempting to be frugal. With most retailers Spring Summer collections in full swing, its hard not to be tempted to whip out the old credit card, but I ask you all to be strong (should you need to be), as you’ve decided to go down this ‘non spending’ route for a reason.

Was that episode gripping from start to finish or what! My cousin called me straight after with a distressed voice saying “I think I’m going to write to the BBC as I don’t think is right they drop such a bombshell of an episode on viewers like that, that was on par with a Christmas episode, I’m quite emotional right now, its no joke.” Whilst her little rant made me laugh out loud, she was right,

So I’ve been trying to ignore what Reiss are doing for SS 09 for over three weeks or so by NOT going to Bluewater for my regular ‘window shopping’ trips. I even made it to Bluewater last week and only visited Mothercare, Clintons and Urban Outfitters and left sharply, running past the Reiss store in a bid to not be tempted to go in. I was doing quite well. I had a bit of a weak moment where I

What I love about this trend is that it is one which is edgy, yet elegant at the same time. I’ve seen out in the stores asymmetric dresses (maxi and short), tops (for daywear and evening) various options in sequinned and silk… there are so many different ways to achieve this look.Using the collarbone to gain attention from your man oozes sex appeal on your part, in an effortless manner.

Don’t mind which colour I have them in as they come in electric blue and black too (blue version a really hot by the way), but I’m being a little conservative for those who think the blue version (see below) are a bit ‘too much’.I thought this high street footwear store had had its time, but on a recent trip up West End, I see they are attempting to claim their cut of the market and if these

Guys, sorry I like to give you the ‘real deal’ when it comes to writing about all products I feature on the FIERCE LIST and unfortunately I haven’t had the chance (or should I say time) to try the new bits I have in my cupboard, so I’ll make up for it next week, promise.

Well it seems, Ri Ri feels the same way as she’s obviously past giving a damn; check out the picture above.

Ok, so this week's FIERCE LIST has already been posted, but I totally forgot part of the 'extra love' I mentioned I'd be giving you guys, was by including the new video for Ciara's single 'Love Sex Magic' which features JT.This video is superb, I'm debating whether I like it more than Single Ladies.

This week’s issue has been laced with ‘extra love’ as I’ve been AWOL for two weeks. Due to no fault of my own, the first week me and the little lady were ill with a nasty flu, chest illness and the second week was due to the sad news of the death of my Auntie, so I’m sure I’m forgiven?Anyhow, this issue will give you a few extra minutes to pretend you’re working hard at your desk, when in fact

Apparently Kanye’s new girl, Amber Rose is relatively new to the scene and has started making impressions, but not necessarily good ones if this outfit is anything to go by. The girl ‘has got back’ for days… (as you can see in the featured picture above)… jeez, my boyfriend is yet to see this. I can assure you when he does, he’ll be packing his bags and moving to LA or wherever it is she resides.

I’m a bit of a granny (as you already know from my choice of trophy jacket above) when it comes to brooches, as I absolutely love wearing them. They can be as grannified’ (yes, it’s not a word in the Oxford Dictionary, but I don’t care), as they come - with pearls galore dangling off it. However, right now I’m loving Urban Outfitter’s Flamingo pin as it’s a simple design which won’t look dated

I’m yet to buy myself a pair, but I just can’t get enough of this trend. On first sight they may just look like an ‘ugly’ footwear choice, but I actually think they really work, especially peep toe shoes with jeans or short floral dresses, which is just perfect for Spring (when it finally arrives!).You can just about find a version in every high street store; Zara, Aldo, New Look, Topshop,

I was a big, big, big fan of the old school Polaroid camera and was soooooooooooooooo annoyed when they said they were going to be discontinuing it. I still have mine here (a little damage since lending it to someone… that will never happen again!), however it’s still functioning…Anyhow, the good guys at Polaroid HQ know that people like me are still in mourning about Polaroid being no more, so

For those who turn their nose down to back street salons, (you know the ones where they do a weave for £15 with the tracks clearly showing), may have heard about Mizani hair care products. My hairdresser introduced their products to me about a year ago and I haven't looked back since, as my hair has done a complete u-turn in terms of thickness and its healthy appearance. More expensive than Dark

Since Chris Rock sold out with his UK tour last year, its no surprise the rest of the American comedians are interested to cash in with the UK audiences they’ve previously ignored. I’m not having a dig out Cedric himself, I suppose I’m having a little dig at them all… I mean, it would have been nice to have the late Bernie Mac and co from ‘Kings of Comedy’ tour here wouldn’t it?Anyhow, he is due

Ladies, I won’t lie… writing this week’s FIERCE LIST has been a little bit of a mission for me, solely because I’m soooooooooo knackered. If it’s not the 4.30am starts with boss lady who believes its time to play and talk to Mummy, then it’s the long days juggling the other ventures, plus the main job of PR. However, as these factors have been a constant in my life for so long now, the only

What’s your opinion on this? Do you think the BBC was wrong to not promote Tuesday’s episode to feature an ‘all black cast?’ I must say, I happened to miss this one as I was busy bathing boss lady. Had I read about it prior in the newspapers, I would have definitely made sure I was free to watch it. (No worries, I’ll see it on the omnibus on Sunday)…I think people should stop shouting their

All I can say is find your way to the nearest store and feast your eyes on what one of my favourite brands (in joint place with All Saints of course), have in stock. They are simply on F.I.R.E! For instance, their silk dress orange on top, black on bottom (£145) = hot. Their accessories line makes you want to buy everything up for you would no longer need to bother with anything else. The

I first saw VV Brown perform a few months ago on The Sunday Night Project (I think) and whilst her music didn’t jump out at me, I was attracted to her style. She looked quirky in her fifties look with her long dead straight weave with the quiff thing going on at the front. Not many black chicks would even think to rock this hairstyle, however it works on her and I suppose that’s what makes me

Whether it be fringed bags, boots, dresses, jackets, jewellery, fringing is a key trend for Spring/Summer. With the trend being featured within shows of designers from Alexander McQueen to Christian Louboutin (yes please!), you are free to where the look in whichever way you please… I’m thinking retro fringing?Now, if you’re not sure where to start with this trend, how about picking up these

Considering my favourite and trusted pair of River Island skinny fit jeans decided to split in the upper thigh region the other day, I’m due a jean shopping trip real soon. I’m currently undecided if I should wait a few months until I’ve shed a few pounds and buy a pair of jeans (or two) in my new size, or just buy a pair now and then turn them into boyfriend jeans, when the weights off? If that’

Clean and Clear doesn’t need no hype from me as it does what the bottle suggests, leaves your face ‘clean and clear’. I’ve been using their Deep Cleansing Lotion since 1st year of secondary school and I have to say, the only times spot has graced my face, is when I’ve not used my cleanser due to me running out of it.Even if I’m not choosing to be frugal with my purchases, Clean and Clear Deep

This story made me laugh out loud when I saw it appear on BBC News the other day. Basically, Justice Secretary Jack Straw had been the victim of Nigerian fraudsters who sent out hundreds of e-mails in his name asking for money. (Nothing new here then!). The e-mails claimed he had lost his wallet on charity work in Africa and needed 3,500 US dollars to get home. The email with the subject heading

This week has flown by… its nearing the end of February and Christmas seems so long ago. Plus the sun has been shining a few days this week and 5pm is looking lighter so does this mean British Summer Time is soon coming?! I do hope so, as I don’t think I can take much more cold winds and snow showers.Regardless of what the weather says, in retail world Spring/Summer has arrived with all the S/S

Say what you want about Big Brother 3 reality star Jade Goody, but damn, this is sad, sad news. Goody was first diagnosed with cervical cancer August last year following an appearance on the Indian version of Big Brother. Since then she has endured months of painful chemotherapy and radiotherapy, however sadly it was announced the cancer has spread to her liver, bowel and groin and she has been

It was reported President John Evans Atta Mills, said on Thursday the government aimed to create a more potent drug enforcement agency that would collaborate more effectively with international drug enforcement agencies to arrest and prosecute offenders. He went onto say the Narcotics Drugs Control, Enforcement and Sanctions Law of 1990 would be reviewed to reaffirm government's commitment to

With every high street retailer featuring the current ‘tribal’ print trend within their collections, my friend RG and I were not surprised when we saw the mannequin in the window of high street retailer Warehouse, wearing an African inspired print dress (see picture above). Now, our initially thoughts were simultaneously irritation. Why you ask? Because this is something which we all know we’ve

Some of you will be saying “yay! I never stopped wearing them anyway”, whilst some of you will be screwing you’re expected to be tottering around in heels which are high enough to surely break your ankle. I say to you all, “wear what you want to wear”, but I will be opting for the killer heels. Not because Alexandra Shulman and her posse at Vogue tell me to, but because I’ve always loved heels.

So, I was all excited last month when I checked my diary to see I had put a reminder in that my mobile upgrade was due. I called my mobile provider quick time and when I eventually got through to a customer service representative, I explained I was due my upgrade and that I wanted the new Blackberry curve – I was clearly excited. The voice at the other end explained “yes madam, you’re right your

I’m not a fan of taking baths as I much prefer showers. The idea of sitting in hot water for more than 10 minutes turns me right off, however after my first 1 hour session of Tums, Bums and Thighs on Monday with the almighty instructor named Adjowa, a soak in the bath is something which I think my achy body needed.So fast forward to Tuesday evening, I’m in agony running my bath when I start

What can you say? Whatever the REAL story is behind the Chris Brown and Rihanna’s bust up, this is inexcusable. I know I joked around last week saying if anyone took my car keys out the ignition and threw them out the window I would slap them up too, but hey this is just not on.Mr Brown, I’m intrigued to see how you get out of this one.

Hope all of you have had productive weeks. I’ve had a sad one after attending my second funeral of the year for my beloved Uncle yesterday. Whilst I’ve spent most of the time crying over the fact I won’t be seeing him again (well in this lifetime), I’m rejoicing to the fact that he is pain free in a better place. I am also grateful boss lady and her cousin were able to meet him before he

How stupid are these two? Both were supposed to perform at the Grammy’s. Instead they both had to cancel their performances due to having a fight the night before, after leaving Clive Davis’ pre Grammy party.According to reports, they were in Brown’s silver Lamboughini driving through LA’s Hancock Park neighbourhood, when Brown pulled up to park the car. Rihanna apparently grabbed the car keys

Morgan Tsvangirai, Zimbabwe’s opposition leader has been sworn in as prime minister in a unity government with President Robert Mugabe.During last year’s presidential elections, Mr Tsvangirai won the first round, but withdrew from the run, citing violence against his supporters, however later agreed to share power with Mr Mugabe.I’m not a heavy follower of politics; but I wouldn’t be surprised to
