In Downtown Los Angeles yesterday (Aug.29.2010) was the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards hosted by late night-er Jimmy Fellon, broadcasted on NBC and of course, with so many stars I was more interested in knowing who is wearing what on the red carpet. So let`s get to it! Here are a few images I found of stars in their best.

How To Care Your Louis V Bag






After coming in from a prestige pool party and seeing majority of the women there wearing a Louis Vuitton Monogram top-handled bag including myself, I thought why not write about it. Then I thought what exactly about L V Mono Bags would I write about. Then out of nowhere, I thought about Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter 2007 – 2008 campaign with the sexy Scarlett Johansson. Now if you are a true Louis Vuitton lover or a Scarlett Johansson lover then of course you’re going to remember that sexy campaign. With Scarlett’s seductive, sexy platinum blond hair and the inspiration of the 1950s look, she sure made it look easy.

Louis Vuitton is one of the biggest names out in the fashion world and everyone has a Louis Vuitton bag from Usher, Jessica Simpson, Ashely Tisdale, to Beyonce and many more of your favourite celebs but when it comes about caring your Louis V Monogram , you have to make sure it stays in tack because with time, the canvas may slightly fade. Here are some instructions provided by Louis Vuitton to keep you Monogram bag beauty and looking new.

Ashely Tisdale Louis Vuitton Monogram Alma Bag


To preserve the beauty of your product as long as possible, we recommend you follow these few instructions:

- Avoid exposing your bag, small leather good or accessory to sunlight, the silk-screen printing colors may fade. Bright and light colors are particularly sensitive to light, due to the pigments used.

- Store your article in the felt pouch provided to protect it.

- Prevent your bag from humidity and keep it away from direct sources of heat (radiators, inside of cars in summer).

- Avoid prolonged contact with any material that may transfer its color pigments onto the coated canvas (magazines, other leathers...) particularly onto the white canvas: any color migration on the light canvas is definitive.

- Light coated canvases are permeable to grease and make-up. Although they are easier to soil than the other canvases, they are easy to clean: you can wipe the coated canvas with a light and soft cloth.

In the event of a problem, please do not hesitate to contact any Louis Vuitton store.

Kendra Francis Is Miss Independent


To my dear fellow friends who have been following me on my venture I apologize for not being consistent for the past week or so updating you people with the fashion world. My apologies! I had a few special events occurring; like the celebration of my sons first birthday and a family reunion. (Must I say it was wonderful!) Oh yeah, I also had to get myself a new laptop. Well that is enough of that. Let us get to the juicy stuff.

So while I was browsing the internet this afternoon, doing the usual checking my emails and following up on latest trends; I came across an email about Toronto’s own Fashion Designer Kendra Francis, and what is more better writing about our own.






Kendra Francis, standing at a 5’11”, with a gypsy spirit, and her flawless beauty was one of the finalists on Project Runway Canada in 2008. She grew up in a European neighbourhood in Malton. Born in a family of tailors and seamstresses, Kendra was bound to have such talent. Making her first dress at a young age of 13, she continued her passion for fashion. Travelling to New York, she tried modeling but it just was not something she loved of course after that experience she made her way to Europe, and after that journey, she came back to her hometown Toronto to study fashion at Ryerson University. After her 4 years, she finally launched her luxury apparel fashion label, FRANKE, in 2001 and she opened her own boutique. Also works as a stylist photo shoots, commercials and music videos. (Talk about a go-getter!)



Kendra’s designs focuses on the balance of fluidity. With her clean lines and refines silhouettes; with a philosophy based in a belief that “Fashion should enhance one’s personality”, not detract from it. Exploring and expanding her style from less material and more skin, to elegant, to chic; inspired by just about everything, and everywhere around her. This stunning, super stylish female is one of Toronto’s hottest and respected designers and as she represents our own Toronto with her great talent, she is also representing for the smart, talented, beautiful, independent ladies around the GTA, and I have to say - I am proud to say she is one of our own, and she is a true woman! Kendra Is Miss Independent!
