Pacifique’s Ocean

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

Getting away to tropical paradise is not something us normal folk get to do everyday.
Heck, we’d consider ourselves majorly lucky if we got a chance to do an all-inclusive in Cancun, let alone somewhere like the Maldives or St. Bart’s.

Wanna Smell Like Naomi??

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

Blackberry bashing, drug use and airport arrests aside, Naomi Campbell is a damn fierce model.

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Parisian cosmetics giant Guerlain is jumping onto the ombre bandwagon, too.

Patrick Dempsey just keeps rolling with the fashion punches.
First, the Grey’s Anatomy star was tapped by Versace to be their male model for the new menswear collection. And now he’s the face for Avon’s signature men’s fragrance.

David and Sybil Yurman want to be emanating off the necks of women everywhere, not just hanging off them.
