Coco & Breezy “20/20″ Collection from Corey Davis on Vimeo.

“Coco && Breezy were originally constructed on a planet called called “EARTH”. Their bodies were constructed of ,artistic ideas , futuristic qualities and characteristics that didn’t resemble the “Normal Human Being. During public appearances others stared and laughed at what the average human being couldn’t understand or dare to be; “DIFFERENT”. This very difference is what made these “20/20 YEAR OLD” girls decide to build a space ship that would soar to the other side of the universe wear DIFFERENT meets Fashion. They left “PLANET EARTH” in Year 2010 and returned 10 years later in “YEAR 2020,” During their trip they discovered a new, uncharted “PLANET called C && B” ”PLANET C && B” is a world that consists only of fresh air and extreme sunlight where normal eyes cannot stand to view without being covered. On Planet C && B the aliens do not have eyes due to the extreme sunlight and have lost the ability to see the great wonders that exist on “PLANET C && B”

C && B created “EYEWEAR” pieces to cover the eyes of both the regular and “DIFFERENT. ”20/20 Eyewear” gives a new vision to those who are blind to future of fashion design. Do you dare to visit “PLANET C && B”? See you there ! “

Blake and Beyonce's Fashion Face-Off

Blake and Beyonce’s Fashion Face-Off

Posted on 12 Apr 2010 at 12:21pm

It looks like Blake and Beyonce unconciously had a fashion face-off. Both debuting at big events – Blake at a movie premiere and Beyonce at a concert – it’s hard to say who wore the the dress the best.

Beyonce is always dazzling in everything she wears, although this dress puts major emphasis on her bosom, creating a very flattering lift for that extra “pop” look.

Blake on the other hand rocks the dress in a way that makes her legs look amazing and thins out her waist to give her hips that great “umph” for a finale.

It’s touch to say who has the upper-hand in this fashion face-off but one thing’s for sure…they’re both very bad chicks.

Let Me Strut My Stuff

Let Me Strut My Stuff

Posted on 01 Apr 2010 at 7:45pm

A girl can always dream about attending a fashion show, well this time it came to life. From a step and repeat, to the black runway, and the flashing lights the show satisfied my every need. Blinking was not a option. I had no desire to miss a moment of it. The young designers, Coco and Breezy alongside Ugo Mozie and Quinn Aston showcased a luxurious collection to the masses.

 

MEET THE DESIGNERS

New York At age 10 Ugo Mozie was discovered while eating lunch at his Englewood elementary school cafeteria and booked his first major gig with Sean Jean at the age of 14. In December 2008, at the age of 17, he partnered with then, 17 year old Quinn Aston to form Aston Mozie’. They both graduated from the same high school early and moved to New York. He quickly became friendly with influential people in the music and fashion industry such as Kelis, Legendary Damon, and Estelle. Ugo’s designs have been seen on celebrities such as Dawn Richards, Dirty Money, Tristan Wilds, Jermaine Crawford, and Dorian Standberry. Ugo’s motto is “It’s me who I look up to…. It’s me who I compare myself to; it’s me who I am influenced by.” 

Coco and Breezy are 19 year old identical twin accessory designers from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Coming from a city not known for its contributions to the fashion world, the twins accidentally fell into designing. After being outcasts for years growing up, they began to rock store bought shades to block themselves from taunting peers. On a whim, they decided to create their own custom eye wear, which created an overnight uproar and Gemela Amor by Coco and Breezy was born. Soon the two found themselves in publications and online blogs such as: W Magazine, The Source, VH1.com, and Concreteloop.com. Their glasses have been worn by some of today’s hottest celebs such as: Kelly Osborne, Steve Aoki, Vanessa Simmons, Ashanti, and Dawn Richards. Coco and Breezy represent the new generation of iconoclasts who are redefining youth culture. Totally happy in each other’s company, they live in a world all their own -We’re just visiting!connection

Gone Too Soon: McQueen

Gone Too Soon: McQueen

Posted on 13 Feb 2010 at 3:02am

Although New York City Fashion Week is well underway in Manhattan’s Bryant Park, much of the fashion world is mourning the loss of designer Alexander McQueen. Following his death, a number of celebrities and fashion icons have spoke on the impact McQueen had on the fashion world and just recently rapper Kanye West blogged about the designer. “McQueen … So devastating,” said Kanye West in his blog. “He was a genius … He was so important and special…We lost an angel!” McQueen passed away on Thursday, February 11 from what was allegedly a suicide attempt.(Honeymag.com)

When I first started writing for the site, his collection was one of my very first articles. I was blown away by McQueen’s collection in RTW SPRING 10. So in honor of his legacy, here is a video and a couple of photos to keep his memory alive. 

Please seek help in a family member or friend if you feel at your lowest. This news is terribly devastating. Our prayers to his family.

 

Tattooed Eyeballs – They’re the Rave in Prison

Tattooed Eyeballs – They’re the Rave in Prison

Posted on 13 Jan 2010 at 11:56am

Looking your best while in prison is a hard task and standing out is something you may or may not want to do. But if you’re looking for that hottest inmate look eyeball tattoos are apparently the way to go.

Prisons have always offered body piercings and random rudimentary tattoos but the newest jailbird fashion has got the felons looking to go for the exotic and…well…”eye catching” look of eyeball tattoos.

Recently, two inmates wanted to stand out from the crowd and opted to get the whites of their eyes tattooed red and blue. Talk about patriotic, huh? When asked why, one of the inmates, David Boltjes, responded, “Why not?”

Though they didn’t explain exactly how they managed to get that all-around sci-fi look around their irises without going – ironically – blind, but they definitely revealed how painful it was. Though most would probably make that assumption on their own.

Is this going to be the opening for the new tattoo world or is it just a phase? One thing’s for sure…right now it’s just painfully shocking.

Music & Fashion: Swizz Beatz & Christian Louboutin

Music & Fashion: Swizz Beatz & Christian Louboutin

Music and fashion go hand-in-hand.

Word has been going around that music producer Swizz Beatz has been working with French designer Christian Louboutin on a sneaker to be released in 2010. No word on the cost of the sneaks, but we imagine it will be equal to a pair of Louboutin’s women’s shoes which currently run around $800 a pair. Swizz Beatz isn’t the first to work with a high-end fashion designer to come out with a sneaker. Kanye West made headlines when he collaborated with Louis Vuitton to create a sneaker. Mark Ronson also teamed up with Gucci to release a sneaker. It looks like Swizz Beatz is up next.

Check out these Louboutins worn by music producer, Pharrell Williams. Men will become fascinated by Louboutins as much as women have.

Boots season is here and taken to a higher level than ever.

Thigh high that is. They started from the ankle, to the knee and made their way to the top. A multi purpose item of clothing, thigh high boots are intended to keep the legs warm and make a fashion statement. Head to any shoe store, and invest in these stellar works of art.

 

Too Much Is Never Enough

Too Much Is Never Enough

Posted on 30 Dec 2009 at 1:39am

As we waltz our way into the new year, the key is to do it in style.

Around the holidays, outfits are meant to sparkle, dazzle, and turn heads. Lets all take advantage of these happy times with excessive amounts of jewelry. A simple black dress added by a few necklaces, bracelets, and rings will turn up the dial on the ensemble. I love accessories, and for me too much is never enough. So even if you do not have plans for New Years Eve yet, celebrating in style is the right way to bring in 2010.
