When you think of vampires you think scary, Halloween, blood, and death. But there is a sexy side to the vampire nation. When have had some of the sexiest vampires ever and that’s what stands out now. It isn’t about how scare a vampire can be but how seductive they can be. Here are the seductive ones in my opinion.

A WILTED ROSE

laylay — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 00:33:16 +0000

I understand if you have the body then show it off but damn. If you show it off at work do you have to show it off everywhere else too. Amber Rose does wear some cute things sometimes but she’s on my worst dresses list because she always has on the same thing: NOTHING! She’s either in leggings (my favorite clothing item), short-shorts, catsuits, or she wears in a super short Kelly Bundy dress. And she needs to leave that where Kelly did… in the 90′s. Like some others have said she’s a rose that wilts in fashion.

GIVING YOU A LEG UP

laylay — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 00:03:41 +0000

My favorite clothing item is the leggings. I love wearing my legging with my high heel, my high top sneakers, and my low top chucks. Being a plus size woman I wish that there was a bigger selection of leggings but I work with what I can get. Torrid is the place to go if you’re a sexy size woman look for some cute ass leggings. I’ve been to these other skinny women clothing site and they always have so much more. You manufactures need to make all those small size leggings in bigger sizes because if you do I guarantee that you will not double your money you will triple it.

TARAJI P. HENSON, YOU GO GIRL!

laylay — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 22:37:24 +0000

Washington, D.C., native Taraji P. Henson has had an amazing transformation. In my opinion she is one of the best dressed actresses of our time. Here are a few pictures of hers that I really like. Taraji’s pixie cut and flirty fuchsia dress gave her the sass she needed to work the carpet.

Shiny and bright, Taraji chose a full head of Hollywood curls to complete her look.

A vision of style perfection, Taraji did everything right for her Academy Awards debut.

With a play on the futuristic trend, Taraji works this seemed, silver mini.

Style is about expression, and Taraji is saying something in this black and white, ruffle back, strapless dress.

Showing off her curves in this corset style black dress.

Always classy and sexy in a bright orange one-shoulder fitted waist dress. Perfect!

A wonderful ruffled halter dress with a free bottom.

In a late 50′s style grey dress with a black belted.

One-shoulder corset style top but a A-line bottom is perfect for her.

WHAT COLOR IS YOUR PASSION?

laylay — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 20:52:27 +0000

The most emotionally intense color, red stimulates a faster heartbeat and breathing. It is also the color of love. Red clothing gets noticed and makes the wearer appear heavier. Since it is an extreme color, red clothing might not help people in negotiations or confrontations. Red cars are popular targets for thieves. In decorating, red is usually used as an accent. Decorators say that red furniture should be perfect since it will attract attention.

The most romantic color, pink, is more tranquilizing. Sports teams sometimes paint the locker rooms used by opposing teams bright pink so their opponents will lose energy.

Red is the color of fire and blood, so it is associated with energy, war, danger, strength, power, determination as well as passion, desire, and love. Red is a very emotionally intense color. It enhances human metabolism, increases respiration rate, and raises blood pressure. It has very high visibility, which is why stop signs, stoplights, and fire equipment are usually painted red. In heraldry, red is used to indicate courage. Red brings text and images to the foreground. This color is also commonly associated with energy, so you can use it when promoting energy drinks, games, cars, items related to sports and high physical activity.

Light red represents joy, sexuality, passion, sensitivity, and love.
Pink signifies romance, love, and friendship. It denotes feminine qualities and passiveness.
Dark red is associated with vigor, willpower, rage, anger, leadership, courage, longing, malice, and wrath.
Brown suggests stability and denotes masculine qualities.
Reddish-brown is associated with harvest and fall.

HEIGHT!

laylay — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 20:22:51 +0000

There are quite a few women out there who have large size feet. I know because I’m one of them, I wear a size 13 women’s shoe. There aren’t many places where a women like me can get trendy high heel shoes. High heels in my size, at a moderate price, and that aren’t 5 or 6-inch transvestite shoes.

I love my heels and I’ve met many women who have big feet and love to wear their heels. I want to be able to give other women like me that chance to wear trendy high heels, instead of having to wear those short, ugly old lady heels. I want to start my own online store.

My store will offer all women the chance to wear the height they want, at a price they can live with, and stay in the trend they like. My store will offer size 7 to 14 in the latest trends to strike the runway. Every women feels great when they put on a pair of heels, now they may not feel the same in a couple of hours but they will still look good. When you look good you feel good, that’s a proven fact. My store will also have the latest trends in purse and accessories. All types of purses such as totes, clutches bags, and handbags. My accessories will include necklaces, rings, earrings, belts, bracelets, and hats. My store will also carry the latest sneakers in women’s size 7 to 14.

For some reason my persentation won’t come up, so check it out here: HEIGHT!

BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME…

After six years at Central Saint Martins, Scottish designer Christopher Kane launched his eponymous label with sister Tammy, a textile designer who runs the business end, helps with fabric development, and serves as the studio’s fit model. Kane’s spring 2010 collection was a disappointment to me. It look as if he took someone’s picnic cloth and wrapped it around the skinny ass model. Hopefully we will see better things from him in the future.

THE REAL DEAL IN BETSEYVILLE!

laylay — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 19:29:10 +0000

Johnson snagged a spot on the fashion map in the sixties and seventies for helming culty brands and heading up chic boutiques. She started her eponymous line in 1978 with ex-model Chantal Bacon. The two opened a boutique in Soho and sold Johnson’s dancewear-inspired creations, tapping into a punk-cum-Warholian aesthetic. Decades later, she’s still producing frilly retro dresses and kooky-sexy separates. While countless brands describe themselves as “flirty” or “sassy,” Betsey exemplifies both. The CFDA award-winner has licensed her name to watches, lingerie, and a Samsung cell phone, all of which can be found in more than 50 colorful, joie de vivre–filled boutiques. Some of her clothes I can give or take but I’m in love with her bags.

AN ALBUM AMONG THE GREATS

laylay — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 00:48:30 +0000

Artist: LeToya (Luckett)
Album: “Lady Love”
Record Label: Capitol
Release Date: August 25th, 2009

Former Destiny’s Child member, LeToya Luckett brings us her sophomore album “Lady Love”. Lady Love is a story about the different phases of love. From infidelity to finding the right one, Lady Love is an all around solid album. LeToya was that “H-Town Chick” but now she has ventured off and created her own sound incorporating many different styles. Her melodic voice wins you over from the beginning.

The intro song “Lady Love” is an up-tempo track introducing the fun and flossy side of Ms. Luckett. LeToya boast her ego and letting him know that she’s all he needs.

“She Ain’t Got…” is the official “whoop a bitch” anthem of 2009. LeToya confronts her man about the chick he has been seeing on the side. The beat is BANGIN, this is a definite club banger for the kids with a pop edge. She demands answer with her power voice on this track.

After you have got “fired up” LeToya slows it up and tells a story in “Not Anymore”. Feeling underappreciated and tired of putting up with all the bullshit, it’s time to just let it go. The track puts me in the mind of an old Motown original with its soulful lyrics and boom clack drum line.

Sick and tired of dealing with the same issues falling in love and being hurt, “Lazy” is a mid-tempo track worth listening too. Lady Love is just tired of love and she just can’t deal with it anymore…

LeToya ask for a man just to treat her right and do her right cause she is ready for love and more than willing to give her all in “Good To Me”. Asking the lady’s, “If You See A Good Man Throw Yo Hands Up!” with the power of a superstar. LeToya blows at the end of the track showing that she a force to be reckoned with.

Luckett throws around some questions to her man in “Over” wonder if he would lie or not about what she already knows. Over drums and piano LeToya sings her heart out trying to let her man know that if you lie it’s over cause I already know.
“Regrets” was Lady Love’s first choice singles and I can see why. This track is infectious. LeToya lets her ex know that he f*&ked up and everything that he had is gone. This is also one of the best tracks on the album. This 2nd single features Ludacris…

A side we never seen before, LeToya takes us to the bedroom with “I Need U”. This sexy track is a definite for a night at home with the boo. LeToya seductively sings over a guitar ask for her man to come be with her.

It’s hard sometimes to explain to someone that you not ready for a relationship. “Take Away Love” is for all those who are trying to break it off with someone that just doesn’t get it. Estelle helps LeToya out on the jazzy track.

Life goes on after you, the “After Party” is a grooving’ track that ends a relationship. The 3rd best track on the album this is a sure FIRE track.
LeToya really “Drained” me with this track. It sounds like a song that should have been on Brooke Hogan’s album. Sounds a little bit auto-tuned and the beat is so cheesy. NEXT!

Lady Love redeems herself BIG TIME with “Tears”. She asks herself why she keeps crying over this man.

The Ups and Downs of a relationship are featured on “Love Roller-coaster” featuring MIMS. This track is fun and radio–friendly. The beat is a head bopper and LeToya’s swag comes out on this track.

Last but not least, Lady Love decides throughout all the stress and drama she “Don’t Need U”. The perfect way to end an album is on a positive note. Giving strength to those who have been put down in the past.

“Lady Love” delivers an all around sound that describes so many situations people go through in love. Not just that “H-Town Chick” anymore LeToya has budded into a fantastic artist. Providing fans with variety and depth. LeToya Luckett has matured and grown as a solo artist and provide an album that can be listened to the whole way through. There’s a song for every situation your going thru with your shorty, boo, significant other, or lover.
