Throwback [Deborah Cox and RL]


We Can't Be Friends (featuring R.L. from Next) was the third single from Deborah Cox's album "One Wish." It is definitely one of my top ten favorite songs/videos and it was shot by one of my favorite video directors, Little X.

Shout out to my karaoke partner for this song! LOL

Beautiful Nightmare [Shakira's Loba]

I'm wagging my tail and panting heavily.

btw: A "loba" is a shewolf. There is an English version but I liked the Spanish better.

I see those Balmain sandals made a cameo.

Throw It in the Bag (REMIX)!

Sky High. Thigh High! [BOOTS]

Fall 2009 collections were littered with thigh high boots of every variety. Here are a few to whet your appetite.
black leather and suede wing-tip boot by Marc Jacobs

Suede and mesh boot with metallic laminato trim by Christian Louboutin

gold brocade boot by Louis Vuitton

perforated faux napa boot by Stella McCartney

these are my favorite.

Sadly this trend will not work for chicks with thick thighs.
