// July 21st, 2010 // 15 Comments » // Looking Good, Mai Closet

Here it is! Yay!!

The breakdown to each bombshell fit’ worn on our Season Premier episode!! This is one of Mai most favorite things to share because I have an UNBELIEVABLE Pretty Posse that works hard to put our visions together to build fashion the way I like it- FUN.

That said, let’s kick off with outfit 1 that you see upon the opening of Scene 1, sitting down with Alicia. If you’ve watched our last few seasons, I HEART PENCIL SKIRTS. Every woman should. They make you skinnier, teaches you to walk like a lady, and sends men drooling when you reach over the copier.  Read more...

Jersey Is the New Black…

Alicia and Me

Dearest Friends,

I just was able to watch the season premier of our wonderful next 20 weeks together on “How Do I Look?” Can I just tell you, I LOVE my show!  This week’s guest, Alicia, was the perfect way to kick us off into the exciting journey of our shows.  I mean come on, Jersey is the new black… and Alicia brought it with ATTACK!  This lovely lady definitely had some spunk and fight in her.  I mean, she made me break a nail from fighting over which pieces needed to go up the Eww Tube.  As difficult as it was to begin, I realized that our personalities are actually VERY similar.  She’s so bubbly and such a go-getter that in the end she came around beautifully.  In fact, upon her return to the “How Do I Look?” show, I was SO amazed by her updated fashion.  Can you believe this is her?!  Read more...

Mmmmmm…in the City :)

Ahhh… I’m feeling pretty fantastic right now. Why you ask? Because, friends… I’m just moments away from landing in mai most favorite city in the entire universe. New York!! Oh em gee- I couldn’t be more excited even though I slept all of 2 hours on this dang flight. Maybe it was because I was having sugarplum visions of what I was going to eat and see there in Manhattan. (Does anyone else have that problem?? Where it’s nighttime and when you should be sleeping you’re too busy envisioning what you’re going to be eating the next day for b, l, and dinner?? Foodmares I tell you…in my dreams I’m obese.) Anyway, every couple of months I make it a point to get some work done in NYC, and while there I catch up on all the fabulous shopping of the season and yummies that I’m googling back home. Ready to salivate? Here are a few hot spots where you’ll be sure to find mai tracks at this week!  Read more...

What do Dev Patel, Lindsay Lohan, Mel B. and I have in common??

// July 7th, 2010 // 3 Comments » // Fun

We all know how to make our July 4th smashtastic!  Ahhh, I love being featured on the same page as one of Mai favorite movie superstars, Dev Patel. I always love these things because I do wonder what the heck everyone else does. I just reported today at Extra that George Clooney’s lil boat excursion was poppin, literally with fallen fireworks. See why I stick to sundaes??

What did you guys do for July 4th?? Share with me traditions…I’m looking for a new way to make Mai mark on Freedom next year!!

Too fun.. Mai Music Fashion Magazine Shoot

// June 29th, 2010 // 5 Comments » // Looking Good, Videos

Recently I did a photoshoot for MusicFashion Magazine, shot by the gorgeous Larissa Underwood from Larissa Underwood Photography . It was soo much fun! I absolutely adore fashion shoots, and watching this fabulous lil video made by Miss Marie Choi, me realize every single woman must experience their own fashion photo shoot sometime in their life. In fact, I would prescribe it to take place at least once a year, just to celebrate the place in life you feel you’re in at the time. It can be such a fun, playful, transparent way of celebrating yourself, and it’s healthy to see outside yourself as the team of hair, makeup, wardrobe, and your photog bring a version of you to life.  Read more...

2010 Daytime Emmys- The Official Recap

// June 27th, 2010 // 6 Comments » // Mai News

First off, thank you friends for all the luv this past week. So hectic! Not only was it a flurry of beautiful birthdays for dear friends, (including a special Bollywood birthday performance I will be posting this weekend!) but it was a collaboration of finding our Vintage chosen yellow lovely lil gal to dress my Emmy night fantastic. I finally found some simple strappies by Guess that had to be altered a bit (OK, I tore off the bow since I think you’d agree I’m a bit bowed out here), and sleek teardrop diamonds by LeVian to finish the look. I know I know… I didn’t do Beyonce pony (thanks for the votes!) but opted for a chic chignon after seeing the dress needed a lil twirly twist. Special thanks to my Pretty Posse, once again, who puts the strut to my Cinderella moments.  Read more...
