👒Fight Like a Lady { a TFC Repost}

 

What's in her Fight?

Does she know her worth...does she know her plight?

How does she know, without seeing? 

Could it be nerve, could it be might. It seems to boil down to some sort of insight...

If the world ends, who survives?

A lady's mystery is profound and rare. 

The type that captivates lives.

🎥Barbie FOREVER!!

For those of you who know...I grew up with BARBIE!!!😆🤣

The sad part is, I have yet to see this movie {don't ask me why}...BUT from my research, this is a MUST SEE Movie...and I WILL! *Soon*

Anywho, these videos are great forms of art imitating life, furthermore inspiring the idea of  creating your own world.

For TFC, Barbie represents a sense of life independence 

until reality HITS!

We love and live in reality, tho fantasy can be calming 

ground *you feel me??💡*

These clips are to share the design aesthetic of Barbie Land and reflect on well wanted nostalgia of such brilliant toys we love {Ken & Barbie}. S/N: remember "My Size Barbie?"...I was her for Halloween in the third grade.😍 

To my 💜, the best toy ever created is Barbie...she lives FOREVER!

Barbie has a fashionable makeover! {by London designers}

My sisters and I were extreme Barbie fanatics as children. I still get nostalgic seeing the modern Barbies. We always say 'Man, why couldn't our Barbies have had style like this back then?!' {which were the 90's...maybe generations before us said the same thing lol}. I'm happy little girls get to play with such fashionable Barbies tho. 

Check out these dolls designed by London designers: Nasier Mazhar, Fred Butler and Sister by Sibling. Get the scoop here!

It's a Collaboration!!: Tokidoki + Karl Lagerfeld new figure coming soon! {Watch This!!}

I thought this was something kool to share. Karl Lagerfeld is at  it again. He has another collectible figure coming soon. The figure Mr. Black that was released March 1, 2013 and this little figure is all over Lagerfeld's Paris boutique.

Mr. Black

This collaboration is between Tokidok + Karl Lagerfeld. I'm not sure if this is the second or third {more so third}, because I found another figure but all my research is led me to international sites with no translation option..copy and paste in google translator #aintnotbodygottimeforthat! lol



 

They only released 150 pieces of Mr. Black, so I guess we have to see what comes about for the new figure. It's is kool way for designers to extend their fashion sense!

Watch This!!

I think {not for certain} the next figure is going to be Lagerfeld AND the cat. Hmmm!

Louis Vuitton Windows Are Dino-mite

If rumors about Marc Jacobs possibly not renewing his contract with Louis Vuitton in 2014 wasn't enough to create buzz for the company, the house's new window installations sure will. Taking a break from the typical brightly hued works of an eccentric or iconic artist, seven stores worldwide {including Paris’ Champs Élysées, London’s New Bond Street, and New York’s Fifth Avenue} are displaying dinosaurs!! That's right, the windows are hosting jewel like reproductions of prehistoric skeletons of Velociraptors, Dimetrodons, Stegosauruses, Tyrannosaurus Rexes, and Triceratopses {just to name a few} with mannequins wearing Vuitton’s Pre-Fall ’13 settled peacefully upon the creatures. 

I love it!! According to Style.com, the displays were inspired by a trip to the Natural History Museum in Paris’ Les Jardins des Plantes.
