I’m sorry to go completely off the topic of fashion and luxury, but this video had me rolling. Diddy hosted a party for the album release party of Dirty Money’s “Last Train to Paris” at the London Hotel in NYC. Kevin Hart was in the middle of one of his funny rants sitting around the tub with Fabulous, Trey and a bunch of model chicks when the naked chick in the tub’s massive weave caught on fire!!

Number one, Kevin Hart is hilarious. Number two, nobody tries to help the poor chick. SMH. LMAO.

Carry on…I’ll be back shortly with some of my Christmas gift giving ideas. xo

Lanvin for H&M released a Fashion Show Short Film just hours ago, adding to the hype of the highly anticipated Lanvin for H&M collection which is set to release on November 20 in North America & November 23 in the rest of the world in over 200 countries. The woman’s collection consists of 30 pieces of clothing and 15 accessories including hats, sunglasses, handbags, footwear and lipstick. I cringe at the thought of the line and chaos this is gonna cause amongst the fashion hard ups.

Below are some cute images of what to expect from the video. Be sure to peep the video featuring model Natasha Poly. It’s genius marketing at its most fabulous. Its makes me want it all, hence exactly why it’s so genius. xo

Yesterday, I re-tweeted a tweet from Elle Magazine linking a post via WWD which speculated, that according to their market sources, “It looks like H&M has snared one of the hottest labels in Europe – Lanvin – for its next designer collaboration.”

Well, it’s official!! H&M has confirmed that its next designer collaboration will indeed be with Lanvin, one of the most influential brands of the 21st century. The collection will go on sale on November 23 in around 200 stores worldwide and will include both womenswear and menswear, designed by Lanvin’s artistic director Alber Elbaz, and menswear designer Lucas Ossendrijver. Wow! If their past collaborations are any indication, I can only imagine the long lineups & anticipation leading up to the opening of those doors on November 23!! Who wants to volunteer to stand in line?????

Lanvin is the latest brand to collaborate with H&M, with previous collections designed by the likes of Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney, Comme des Garcons and Sonia Rykiel. In a new twist, the Lanvin for H&M collection will be revealed to the world through a special film which will be launched on November 2. The film will be available for all to see online at www.hm.com. Following the film’s debut, it will be just three weeks before customers have the chance to get their hands on a cove-table piece of Lanvin for H&M.

Since joining Lanvin as artistic director in 2001, Alber Elbaz has transformed the Paris-based label, founded in 1889 by Jeanne Lanvin, into a fashion powerhouse bursting with ideas and creativity. Alber Elbaz has pioneered there some of the biggest trends of the past decade – ribbon, bows, pearls, raw edges, sumptuous colour and metallic embellishment among many others. Alber Elbaz has a mastery of cut and an instinct for cloth which leaves a very personal signature on his work, ensuring that all Lanvin clothes are instantly recognizable. Since the introduction of a new menswear line in 2006, Alber Elbaz has also transformed the male wardrobe, bringing a relaxed elegance to men’s clothing which is as special as the womenswear.

I don’t post many random videos and it’s rare I get blown away by talent besides the obvious heavy hitters, so I felt inclined to post Ryan Leslie’s making of Addiction…then realized my boy Marcus Troy beat me to it just yesterday (Great minds think alike…wink wink). Ryan truly is the shit, refreshing for music in this day and age. I became a fan when I saw the video below a while back on his NS4Life Website and have been following his work for over 2 years since the earlier days of Cassie. I met him a couple years back at Bungalo 8 in NY, super cool dude. His story is compelling.
