We Love You, Michael!!!!!!!!!

SHOP MICHAEL JACKSON’S STYLE NOW!

Yesterday, people of all ages from around the world celebrated and mourned the tragic and unexpected passing of the King of Pop. Radio stations filled the airwaves with the familiar sounds of MJ’s famous beats. Everyone listened to their old favorites with a new ear and deeper appreciation for the genius behind the hits. A grief counselor called a radio station that I was listening to on the ride home from work. She was surprised at how much Michael Jackson’s passing was affecting her emotionally and was close to tears remembering the time she got to touch the hand of the most talented entertainer that ever graced a stage. For so many, Michael’s name is a household one, and his death had fans feeling as if they’d lost a close friend.

I will always admire Michael’s signature style and the way he could pull off such over-the-top-looks so effortlessly, as if a jacket, pants, glove, and shoes completely covered in sequins were as ordinary as a t-shirt and jeans. But what I envy most was his ability to establish these looks as his own. The glove, the hat, the armband, the jacket. That’s Michael. He will always be an inspiration to those aspiring to discover and establish their own personal style. As a tribute to the iconic celebrity’s innovative flair, I created a style guide of all things Michael, with some literal and some more modern takes on Michael’s trademark adornments, which represent the self-expression of a beloved pop legend. I love you, Michael!!

Bad Girl Essential: Slashed Leggings

SHOP SLASHED LEGGINGS NOW.
We all know trends get recycled, and slashing your pantalones up to make a fashion statement is nothing new. But this does not mean that the stripped, ripped, and thrashed black leggings of 2009 aren’t supes sexy and chic-ly risque. I have yet to see a non-celeb rocking “slashed-up-to-there” leggings (which makes me want to get a pair even more! Trendsetterrrr!), but I’m sure this fad will spread faster than the swine flu, especially among the teens and early twenty-somethings who are growing tired of their plain old leggings. Zzzz!

Shown: 1. LnA Olivia Thrashed Gathered Bottom Leggings in Noir, 2. LnA Ripped Zipper Leggings in Flat Black, 3. David Lerner Ripped Leggings, 4. Leyendecker Kerouac Ripped Leggings.

Best Webcams for Desktop Computers

Shop Webcams Now.

If you have friends and loved ones who live in far-off lands (a.k.a. you don’t see them as often as you’d like to), I highly recommend investing in a webcam, if your computer doesn’t already have one built-in, that is. It makes everyday chatting with friends more fun, too. Trust me, it’s a hilarious good time. I did some research on the best cameras on the market and came up with a Top Desktop Webcams buyer’s guide, with cams for your desktop computer ranging from about $26 to $130.

The Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 is overwhelmingly listed as a top performer, and I’ve got it on my list at a really sweet price. If you want a less expensive cam that’s listed among the top budget webcams, go with the Logitech QuickCam Communicate STX. Learn more about webcams, view prices, and snag one of your own on my Top Desktop Webcams guide. Happy chatting.

Webcams from left: Logitech QuickCam Orbit AF Auto Focus System, Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000, Logitech QuickCam Communicate STX, Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000.
