Good day people! How is everybody doing today?

This up and down weather is messing with my emotions and I believe I'm even getting a cold.... THANKS A LOT "SUMMER"! All is not lost though. Fall, my favorite season, is around the corner and I'm very excited!! It's my favorite season weather-wise and fashion-wise.... I get to wear the dopest jackets this season, and for those who don't know, I LOOOOVVVEEE JACKETS!! Another reason to look forward to the upcoming season (fashion-wise), is for the new movie "The September Issue" that's being released soon (and hopefully in Canada). I'm just itching to watch it! It's an in depth look at what goes into making the crucial decisions in the September Issue of Vogue Magazine. That, and a look at the work Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour puts into the magazine! Before this film, Anna has never allowed anyone on the outside to see what she does at the magazine.... That alone has my interest!

*See the trailer for the movie here:

Special shout out to my homie Blake Carrington who will be the opening act for the Cool Kids concert tonight at Lee's Palace... Sorry I won't be there to see you but I already know you're gonna SMASH it!! Also, if anybody is looking for something to do tomorrow night, look no further than Blake's "Summer Body Fit" party at the Dazzling Modern Restaurant & Bar. The music will be brought to you by Dj Rych Kydd and Dj LRS and the cover is $10.... I know I won't be missing it!

I have to take this opportunity to acknowledge my Dope & Fresh Lady of the Week... the infamous Karla Derass of Karla's Closet [ http://karlascloset.com/ ]. This lady is sooooo well put together it's ridiculous! I'm telling you, give me 20 minutes in her closet and I'll be GOOD!

*Peep some of my favorite fashion pictures of her:

One other thing before I bounce, and this one is on a somber note... This past Tuesday marks the 8th anniversary of Aaliyah Dana Haughton's death. Who else was remembering her in belly tops and baggy pants, dancing and singing across numerous stages and in videos, telling us she was 'Hot Like Fire' and 'One in a Million'?? Man oh man.... R.I.P. Aaliyah.
