Model Spotlight: Dominique Armorer

Noteworthy! I was not able to find a lot of "press" but from what I have read, International Fashion Model, Dominique Armorer is known to rip the Caribbean runways. According to Coco Velvet International Fashion and Model Mgmt., Dominique was first discovered in San Fernando, Trinidad & Tobago (yasss bish!) — my daaalin' daddy's home country, which is why I had to spotlight Dominique *wink*

In any event, it's no secret that diversity is lacking on fashion runways and in magazines, so I make it my business to shine a light on talented brown beauties that we must pay attention to: Did you hear that mainstream media folks? I'm talking to you! 

Following is Dominique's model stats: Height- 5'10" | Bust- 34 | Waist- 24 | Hips- 34 | Dress- 4 | Shoe- 9.5 | Hair- BLACK | Eyes- BROWN

Beauty Must-Have: Blue Mascara

Psst! Did you hear? Blue mascara is a beauty must-have for spring - it's darn electrifying!

Blue mascara is my go-to evening eye-enhancer; it's a fierce color splash for sure! And to accomplish the look, I use Maybelline's Great Lash product in royal blue. Additionally, I meticulously line my upper eyelids with liquid black eyeliner for a dramatic look.

KANYE WEST -- Spring 2012 Ready-To-Wear: The Editor's Picks and Commentary!

All Photos via style.com

Mr. Kanye West recently debuted his highly anticipated collection at Paris Fashion Week—a women's line—and the critics sure have a lot to say: "Kanye should stick to rapping." "Kanye's collection is disappointing." Kanye should have done a men's line first." "Kanye's collection is ghetto and far from trendy." The harsh comments went on and on.

Personally, I think Kanye made a good first attempt. I will also go on to say that there is nothing wrong with celebrity designers, as they are just like us ... people with passion for an array of different things. And, what's wrong with that? But however, I will agree with style.com in which they wrote that "conquering his new medium [fashion] is a work in progress." Fair to say. Anyways, Kanye has a cool personal style with trendsetter potential; I am looking forward to what's next in terms of his fashion venture. Below, see my favorite looks from Kanye's collection, I find them to be hip & trendy and bondage-like sexy. All looks got attitude!
