This day of the week we will be celebrating talented, fierce, & fashionable women. Today happens to be Nicki Minaj. This talented singer/rapper has been hitting the radios of many. Her music is fun, uplifting, & just raw. I can’t get over how amazing she kills every beat she raps over. I’m sure not a lot of guys could hit notes & rap all in one song like she does.
One thing I love about Nicki Minaj is her confidence within her style. She stays looking fresh, & is innovative. She isn’t just like any other up & coming artist who has to put up a front when they first hit the scene. Since day one Nicki has displayed her provocativeness, & her sexy yet stylish fashions. Nicki Minaj has introduced to us (like Lady Gaga) the styles that are out there & are here to stay.
Here are a couple flicks that I love of Nick Minaj

Thanks to fashionista.com the: TOP 20 FASHION SCHOOLS – came out a little more than a few days back. And my oh my, why am I not surprised that 3 out of the 5 fashion schools are all located in NY!?
1. PARSONS, THE NEW SCHOOL FOR DESIGN (NY)
2. FASHION INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (NY)
3. PRATT (NY)
4. KENT STATE UNIVERSITY (OH)
5. ACADEMY OF ART UNIVERSITY (SF)
http://fashionista.com/2011/07/the-top-20-fashion-schools-in-the-united-states-the-fashionista-ranking/6/
It’s pretty interesting to see where each school has been ranked. I mean you usually hear Parsons all over Project Runway, & the Bravo Network, and I always thought it was solely because of advertising purposes since a lot of the filming for these reality competitions were filmed in their classrooms. Being that they are number one & featured on almost every fashion program is definitely a hit if you’re looking for an elite school for Fashion.
Out here in LA all we hear about honestly is FIDM. FIDM this, FIDM that, but where are they ranked!? 13. 13 out of 20, not too shabby I suppose! The school noted is the LA Campus, so what about the OC & SD location?
For all of you local Los Angelinos, or wherever you may be from in California.. The Academy of Art University San Francisco is ranked at the number 5 spot for this list. I’d say definitely look into this school.
I mean sure you can save about $10,000-$20,00 dollars in tuition fees compared to FIDM, but after reading about each school, AAU SF is the only Fashion School that SHOWS AT FASHION WEEK.
Opportunities like this are definitely a diamond in the rough. Can you imagine working on your last senior show…………..at NYFW !? How crazy is that?
Compared to some of the other listed schools, AAU SF has a fewer amount of students in their fashion program, which means you definitely won’t be “just another student” to the faculty.
I personally have never been inside of AAU SF but I sure have been in & around SF and is definitely an amazingly cooky city that everyone should experience in their young adult lives.
 Housing, how cool is that!? [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="700" caption="Student work walking down the runway at NYFW"]

These pictures make me want to transfer out to SF! What do you think?

So one of the trends this season I seem to love is the turban look. Turbans can be seen worn on the heads of many fashionistas via blogs & facebook pictures. But where did this look REALLY come from!? Sure you saw the first models at all the Fashion Weeks- but many people all around the world have been dawning this look years before we commercialized such a look.
Men & Women Middle Eastern Countries such as Afghanistan have the “turban” or “lungee” in their everyday outfits. Whether they are attending a tribal meeting, or simply keeping themselves cool in the hot heat.
A Sihk member from India also has their own turban known as the Dastar. The dastar is worn as it is a mandatory symbol of representing their class, caste, & religious beliefs such as virtues. Dastars can be assembled & tied in very many ways with elaborate pleats.
An old coworker of mine was so pleased & astonished one day as I kept asking questions about his dastar back in the fall. He came in one day with a lovely orange-saffron colored fabric adorning his head, & modestly shunned me from looking because he didn’t take his time as well as he should have. He even told me it’ll take 5 minutes tops- for him to assemble his piece, & that his hair was way longer than mine & he tucks it in perfectly under his Dastar.
Also letting his hair grow much faster under his cap. (is this true!?)
Here are some of my favorite turbans I’ve found on the inter web.
