A Lookback At Summer At Its Best: Chanel Iman and Kanye West

I saw this picture-perfect... picture... of model Chanel Iman and Kanye West taken at 2011 CFDA Awards at Lincoln Center (NYC) back in June.

I'm absolutely loving the grace of this young girl's flowing dress and her calming facial expressions... like a natural-born princess. Also check out Kanye's classic white blazer, bleached jeans , and Stubbs & Wooton shoes.

Gotta be on-point, those two...

KANYE WEST At 'Fashion Designers of America' Awards, Dressing 2 Impress...

Kanye West just never fails to impress me with his keen sense of style. This is a dressed-down look worn superbly. White blazer, white tee, washed blue jeans, black loafers by Stubbs & Wootten.

He nailed it. Simple. Only the colorful jewelry is a subtle but noticeable plus.

KANYE Ballin' In his 2011 MAYBACH Landaulet (Open-Top)

                     

Kanye just has to be the pinnacle of attention.

Check him out in the 2011 Maybach Landaulet, ballin' in Paris. If you don't know what a Landaulet is, it is an open top car only for the rear area. The chaffeur remains enclosed, though. Check out the car as I saw it on UpscaleHype. Too hott for words.

And who's that chick?? Is that one of the girls Kanye was tonguing down in Paree lately?



GRAY Can Be The New BLACK: See Kanye West Gray-Style

Good morning, check out Kanye West's gray style.

I'm a GRAY-lover. I have a variety of gray clothes from gray Chuck Taylors to my favorite gray military jacket. It's a CAN-DO, a wear-anywhere. It's a shade lighter than black and you don't have to worry about whether your choice of clothing is too dark. Gray is safe. Right in the middle. It can be the new BLACK this spring.

Kanye was wearing a nice gray hoodie (perfect for any cool weather) and black suede Ann Demeulemeester (long name) sneakers. His whole look could do no wrong, EXCEPT... IT COULD LOOK MUCH BETTER if he could do a few more crunches. It's Kanye's own spin on GRAY STYLE. What's your gray style?

Designer TORY BURCH Custom Designs Tux for KANYE WEST

Kanye with Tory Burch

...And might I add.... the suit is HOTT!!

Tory Burch designed a suit for Kanye West that's well beyond expectations, since she only designs women's accessories. Could it be the beginning of a collabo with Kanye West to produces MEN'S Tory Burch Collection??

I would like to see that. Wouldn't you?

(Doesn't Kanye look like a WAX FIGURE in this photo? LoL)

KANYE WEST Trades All-Black For All Colors at Coachella Festival!!

Kanye surely was showing "ALL OF THE LIGHTS" in his outfit. Check out Kanye's India-inspired tunic paired with immense gold jewelry and colorful wooden bracelets at the 2011 COACHELLA FESTIVAL. This look may be seen on a significant number of men this summer.

This look was pretty cool, as is MOST of Kanye's outfits. The look also SCREAMS 'Spring Time' and it's also very inviting and open than wearing the usual all-black or dark-colored attire. See more pics of the FASHION-FORWARD Kanye:

Another TUNIC wearer was singer Ryan Leslie:

...And LIL B wore an even more colorful one... HMM...
*sideways look*

Paris Fashion Shows Shut their Doors On KANYE WEST??!

Never thought they'd do it, Never thought they'd do it, Never thought they'd do it...

(in Rihanna "Man Down" music)

I'm still waiting to hear more about these shocking news. Reports said earlier that due to Kanye West's controversial video "MONSTER," high-end fashion shows BALMAIN, LOUIS VUITTON, and ALEXANDER McQUEEN have temporarily shunned the artist from attending! We're talking about brands that Kanye is loyal to!

Then.... the rep for Alexander McQueen readily came forward and said, "Kanye sometimes attend shows uninvited. We poiltely told him this time that we could not accomodate him." Way to clear that up, otherwise Kanye would be a DIVO and stop wearing McQueen's clothes.

*Sidenote: Someone at the McQueen camp gave in and let Kanye in through the side door.

Well.... attending high-end fashion shows uninvited is characteristic of a DIVO or DIVA. Maybe this will humble Kanye to just pick up the phone and give someone the HEADS UP.

KANYE WEST In a Cool White Blazer for Spring 2011

Good morning on this rainy morning in Detroit. I can finally feel the spring air and just wanted to show you a glimpse of what Kanye was wearing the other day. He looked great in two different looks with the same white BOTTEGA VENETA spring blazer for $1,980.

This is my PERFECT EXAMPLE of Mix & Match.

A look like this for men can be rocked this spring; as long as you stay within the neutral colors, you guys should have NO problem looking like you have a truckload of clothes but only a few fashion pieces to select from, know what I mean?

Updates coming....

KANYE WEST In Leopard Jacket x HALLE BERRY On A Motorcycle

Two people I found went OUT-OF-BOX this weekend.

As I have said over and over again, LEOPARD seems to be the "color" of choice for men this year. So check out Kanye West in his Givenchy leopard bomber jacket at Paris Fashion Week.

(Does Kanye look like he put on some weight in his face?)

Also, check Halle Berry dressed as a BONA FIDE BIKER, riding on the motorcycle with her boyfriend in Cali.

KANYE WEST IN Paris Fashion Week In Cool "Oliver Peoples" Shades

Good morning... Kanye loves his fashion shows; He puts on a show himself whenever he attends one. And the highlight of this post is his OLIVER PEOPLES Daddy B Sunglasses for $325.

These glasses are a good investment because they can be worn with anything, anywhere...

See Kanye's whole outfit; jacket by BALMAIN:

KANYE WEST: Balmain, Burberry, and Chicago Bulls

What do Kanye West, BALMAIN, Burberry, and Chicago Bulls have in common? He "visited" them all in one day. He was first spotted in NYC doing some ish that he usually does; he wore a Burberry Prorsum Green Shearling Coat from the Fall 2010 collection, a BALMAIN sleeveless hoodie (seen in above pic), and SMOOOOTH black Raf Simons sneakers, for $697 (below). OH-wait a minute-- he's also wearing vintage Cartier sunglasses.

THE LOOK IS HOTT. Thumbs up. Well... except that the white shearling might be a bit much; it's not for everyone.

Kanye later changed it up a bit by wearing Air Jordan Retro sneakers when he stopped by Chicago to catch the game (Chicago Bulls beat Miami Heat). Check out more pics:

Dat's wassup... stepping into the Maybach... ayy DRIVER, don't hit the door on that lightpole!!!

DRAKE & RIHANNA Steams Up The Stage Lookin' Hott & Stylish At 2011 All-Star Game

I really, REALLY do think that Rihanna and Drake would make a great couple (well, I'm kinda in the running for RiRi so Drake watch out *LoL*); they're very natural and flirty.

Rihanna celebrated her 23rd birthday yesterday at the 2011 All-Star Game, so it's like she performed at her own party, and tens of millions of people celebrated with her. WHAT A BIRTHDAY TO REMEMBER! Rihanna performed all her #1 hits: "Umbrella," "Rude Boy," "Only Girl," and then..."WHAT'S MY NAME" with Drake! All the flirting, laughing, touching... wish I was on that stage *LoL* but anyway... I'm just here for the fashion.

Rihanna wore an interesting short skirt with strategically placed ruffles that would accentuate her curves and swing with every motion she made. I also liked her sensual bejeweled bodice that was just a dream, especially with her long, flowing red locks looking like a flowing fountain of cool Kool-Aid *LoL* They both did a great job, as Rihanna ended with Kanye West performing in an all-red ensemble (pics coming in a later post) that seemed to have shrunk him *sideways look.*

That's enough talking. See more pics!

Hmmm.. HOTT. Not feelin' the red pants though, Kanye... but I like your vest and shoes.

KANYE WEST Owns The Sidewalk, Strollin' In Haute Couture

Kanye West is no stranger to me when it comes to fashion, especially in haute couture and ready-to-wear collections. Kanye West is often seen in high-end designer labels like Louis Vuitton, Givenchy, Maison Martin Margiela, Rick Owens, Lanvin, Hermes.

OOHHH, this dude wear these things like DAILY UNDERWEAR, no problem!!!

Well anyway, Kanye was seen in this pic strolling through a city (possibly NYC) wearing a BALMAIN jacket, which is reportedly an altered jacket coming straight from the BALMAIN women's collection! He must've liked the jacket so much to cross over like that. But the jacket isn't half bad. It's rocker-style with chains and zippers all over it.

Kanye's also wearing luxurious leather pants, an army green BALMAIN hoodie (talk about one of the world's most expensive hoodies), and rare Ann Demeulemeester hightop sneakers. This entire look has to be over $10,000. EASY.
