I'm drooling over the 2011 Gucci Spring Collection of decadent clutches, handbags, shoes, and tote bags. No matter what you're seeking, Gucci has created a line for the masses that caters to every style. The 2011 Spring Collection is inspired by the late 70's with bold colors such as red, jade, cobalt blue, and gold saturated in most of the shoes, purses and belts. There is one handbag in particular that caught my eye: the blue denim day-handbag. It is stitched with tan leather along the zip line and arm handles which compliments the denim very well. This is an ideal handbag for the spring/summer season which can be worn with khaki's, jeans, and summer dresses.

Beyonce: Why Don't You Love Me
Hands down Beyonce is one of the fiercest women in the game. As Jay-Z says, "Got the hottest chick in the game wearing my chain." It's no surprise that she makes an appearance on the Billboard Top 100 consecutively single-after-single. I particularly love this joint because of the creativity, risk, and style that this video encompasses. You gotta love the red pumps, red lipstick, and nostalgic 60s-inspired attire. I admire her confidence, sassyness (yes, sassyness), and overall attitude about life. Check it.

Fashion Forward Friday
According to the latest articles in prominent Fashion magazines such as, Vogue, Glamour and Cosmo, the five hairstyles to rock this Spring are the low bun, Jane Birkin Bang, punky short cut, side part, and the swoop. If you’re like me, you like to start trends and create your own style, not imitate them. However, these hairstyles will be rocked this spring, so be on the look-out, ladies.
The Low Bun: Guido Palau, who created the look for Nina Ricci’s spring show, recommends starting with a center part. Next, pull hair into a low ponytail, making sure to cover the ears. Then twist the ponytail into a loose knot. Remember, a too-tight style will look overly austere, so keep it loose for a touch of bohemian flair.
The Jane Birkin Bang: “Bangs should be heavy, slightly longer on the sides, and kept below the eyebrows. Layers are long and flowing, with a slight angle below the chin. Blow-dry your bangs with a brush, then spray hairspray on a comb and comb through to make them look solid and thick.” – Kattia Solano of Butterfly Studio Salon.
The Punky Short Cut: If you’re ready for change, go with this one, a short hair cut is always a sure fire way to say, “Here I am and I have confidence” as it exposes more of your beautiful face. “The most versatile way to get this look is an undercut with length on top,” “To style, use a texturizing spray when wet, followed by a wax-based styling product once hair is dry.” – Pasquale Ferrante, co-founder of ION Studio
The Swoop: Loosely pin your bangs to the side, either with bobby-pins or a barrette. Use a dry shampoo to add texture or gel for hold and shine.

Dolce & Gabbana's Animalier Eyewear: Naomi Campbell
The stunning Naomi Campbell is the face of Dolce & Gabbana's Spring 2011 Animalier eyewear campaign. I'm not a huge fan of animal print; however, Naomi makes anything look appealing. Here are some glamour shots from the Animalier photo shoot and a video clip for some eye candy.
