The Scoop: Emporio Armani "Diamonds" Launch in Milan.

DIAMONDSSSS ARE A GIRL'S BEST FRIENDDDDD.

As if you didn't know that already, Beyonce Knowles has painted quite the reminder in her Emporio Armani scent "Diamonds" AD campaign. I am in LOVE with that commercial, I sing along every time it comes on TV, lol. Beyonce first launched the fragrance here in the states back in August in NYC. She headed back overseas yesterday with Mr. Armani himself in Milan, Italy to launch the fragrance at Rinascente's flagship in Piazza Duomo.

The Scoop: Venus Williams - The Graduation + Festivities + Clothing Line Party.

IT'S A CELEBRATION, BATCHES.

Venus - Ms. Williams if you're nasty has graduated from the Art Insitute of Fort Lauderdale today. She celebrated with her graduation party/clothing line launch at hotel Victor in Miami. Graduation was a very special accomplishment as it took Venus several years to actually get that piece of paper. Of course, you know with all those "minor" things in the way like Wimbledon tournaments and endorsements left and right. I'm not 100% sold on the line, as I've yet to see a celebrity line that I've really been impressed with (other than Gwen Stefani's L.A.M.B. and Sienna Miller's Twenty8Twelve line) But hey, I'm pretty sure people will be buying it since it's affordable. You can find EleVen at your local Steve & Barry's retail store.

The Juice: Iman Goes International.

PIMPING ALL OVER THE WORLD.

Supermodel - Fashion Icon - Style Guru - Business Woman - Iman is adding yet another slash to her name tomorrow night. Yes my dears, Iman is the next celebrity face to grace the TV screen via the Home Shopping Network. That seems to be the way to go these days. (Remember I told you about Mama Tina Knowles on HSN too?) Iman will be debuting an exclusive collection of jewelry & accessories which she is calling, "Global Chic". The line is inspired by Iman's own travels around the world to different countries such as: Africa, Bali and India. There will even be pieces from Iman's personal collection of jewelry.

When asked about her thoughts about the importance of accessories Iman responded with, "Whether I am off to a business meeting, the PTA, a romantic night out with my husband, or at a red carpet, high-voltage event, I rely on stunning jewellery and accessories to give me fashion 'extras' to highlight my looks," Iman explains. "It is important to know fashionable accessory trends, but it is more important to know how to properly incorporate them into your world and your lifestyle. You are never fully dressed without them."

Preach Iman. She speaks the fashion truth! I couldn't have said it any better myself. Make sure you tune into HSN tomorrow night at 8pm for the premiere of Iman's Global Chic line. If you can't catch the live broadcast, the items will also be available for purchase on the HSN website, www.hsn.com. I can't wait to the see the collection! Might have to add a new Christmas present or two ;)

THE SCOOP: SEAN JOHN WOMEN LAUNCH

SEAN JOHN WOMEN IS BACK.

As you may have seen or heard, Sir Diddy has finally decided to do it, do it for the ladies - again. Yes, Diddy plans on giving his women's collection another shot. Sean John had difficulties launching their women's collection previously. Now Mr. Combs is preparing for several major launches before the year is over and done with. The collection is now available in Macy's and other retail department stores.

This past weekend, Diddy hosted the launch party for his new Sean John Women Collection in New York City. The spokesmodels for his campaign are the beautiful Lauren London, Cassie, and Asia from the Search for the Next Pussycat Doll show fame. (Sidenote: my favorite is Lauren, she is just stunning!) The party served up quite a few celebrities and familiar faces in attendance such as: DJ Coco Chanel, Jaslene from Top Model, Irv Gotti, Anthony Anderson and Janice Combs (Diddy's mom) and his sister Keisha also showed up to lend support.

THE PARTY

(Sidenotes: Who did that to Jaslene? I love the girl, but now she's really livin up to the those "drag-queenish" comments. And i love Mama Combs but she needs to start dressing age appropriate. She's long overdue for a "dress like you're somebody's mom, not their sister" makeover.)

THE AD CAMPAIGN

(Sidenotes: The AD's could have been better. Nothing stands out with these ad's. But I like the jackets nonethless and the ladies looks gorgeous.)

THE JUICE: CAVALLI COUNTDOWN AT H&M.

CAVALLI IS COMING TO H&M.
NOVEMBER 8

Bold. Glitzy. Glamorous. High fashion.

Yup, that's Cavalli honey! As if you didn't know already! Well, if you've been hiding in your closet you haven't. But with me being a huge Cavalli fan, I haven't been able to calm myself since I heard the news of the collab back in the summer months. I just know that Cavalli's Holiday line for for H&M is going to be nothing short of amazing. I mean look at the AD's! They're polished in true Cavalli style! If this is just a preview of what's to come with this collection, then i'm already obessesed! Sign me up for Cavalli rehab, right NOW.

I'm in love with the bold animal prints on the party dresses & gowns - which I think you can never have enough of in your wardrobe! The shimmery gold dresses are pretty fab as well. These looks are definitely red carpet worthy but at AFFORDABLE prices for us everyday fashionistas who love to be flashy! What more could you ask for? Get ready to scream HOLLYWOOD and fight off the paparazzi with this collection.


Flashy.

Haute.

Fierce.
