Stephanie Mills!!!

Stephanie Mills

Medley

Thanks to my Mom and my Aunt Stephanie Mills has to be my all time favorite Female singer (besides Mary J. Blige). There are no words to describe my feelings towards Stephanie Mills. I would wake up on Saturday mornings to her voice feeling my house with such force, I had no choice but to become a fanatic. Below are few of my favorite songs!!!

"You And I"

"Starlight"

"Secret Lady"

"What Cha Gonna Do With My Lovin"

"Keep Away Girls"

Teena Marie!!!

Teena Marie

Medley

Too many words that i just can't type about the one and only Lady T!!! She is another one I would listen to as a child on my yellow Big Bird record player. She was an angel sent to earth to bless us with her many talents and when she opened her mouth to sing any of her many hits she was truly blessing her fans with pure talent. She will be missed!!! Below are a few of my favorites!!!!

"Cassanova Brown"

"Ooo La La La"

"It Must Be Magic"

"Irons In The Fire"

Anita Baker!!!

Anita Baker

Medley

Another one of my favorites. I have been listening to Anita Baker as long as i can remember. Her Voice is one of a generation before mine, but I connect with her sounds as well as her music with the soul of her fans before me!!! Below are some of my favorites!!!

"Angel"

"Fairy Tales"

"You Bring Me Joy"

Phyllis Hyman!!!

Phyllis Hyman

Somewhere In My Lifetime

Just thought I would share one of my favorite songs with you all from one of my favorite singers of all time. Phyllis Hyman was truly a talented force that could never be replaced!!!

Brilliance From Trussardi 1911!!!

Trussardi 1911 has to my favorite collection of the SS 2010 season for men. Luxury RTW at its best is how I would describe designer Milan Vukmirovic vision for this collection. While other designer took the fishing and hunting inspiration extremely literal he display these trends in ways, separating Trussardi into its own class of high end menswear. He also looked to the Native Americans and there culture to produce some of the best menswear and accessories i have seen in a while, which in his brilliant way mixed with the modern plaid and military camos produced a collection that needs very few words!
