Michelle Obama: The Next Jackie-O?



Michelle Obama's first official portrait as First Lady of the United States was released by the White House on Friday. Michelle has been nicknamed The First Lady of Fashion due to her fashion choices on the campaign trail and at the inaugural ball which have received mostly positive reviews by the media and general public. People are also liking that Michelle has supported up and coming young fashion designers by wearing their dresses to important events (however they still hold a hefty price tag!) and has even been spotted in J. Crew.

In this portrait, Michelle appears in a Michael Kors black shift dress with pearls. The portrait was taken in the famed home's "Blue Room." She looks good! Could Michelle Obama be the next Jackie-O? She's on the road to being a First Lady fashion legend.

SJP Hints At 'Sex & The City' Sequel


We are liking Sarah Jessica Parker's look at the Oscars last week. (Okay, a little prom-esque but if you can't get crazy formal at the Oscars, where can you?) The actress wore a Dior Haute Couture silver gown to the ceremony last Sunday night.
While on the red carpet, Parker, 43, hinted at a 'Sex & The City' movie sequel in the works. When asked about the likelihood of a sequel to last year's film adaptation of the popular television series, she said: "It looks very promising. I do not know anything yet, not one single thing."

She also added that the movie's producer/director/writer Michael Patrick King is hauled away somewhere writing a script for the new movie. The last movie was such a huge hit, we're sure all the Sex & The City crew will be back for me, they'd be crazy not to, there are loyal fans out there everywhere!

Angelina's "Blah" SAG Dress


Let me preface this by saying, yes, she is Angelina Jolie, she can wear anything and still look stunning. We get that. We're not completely dissing her here. That being said, I was not a fan of her outfit at the SAG Awards! As Michael O'Connor (fashion guru) told us, blue is in this year! Angelina got that part right! Otherwise, I felt like she looked very matronly, sort of like a "mother-of-the-bride" type get-up she decided to wear on the red carpet. No jewelry either?! Her simple look didn't do much for PCM. She's been playing it pretty safe lately on red carpet events. We haven't seen too much skin from Jolie. What are your thoughts?

What's the update on all the kids they're having? When asked by Access Hollywood if they’re ready for more, Brad said, “We average about two a year, so I guess we’re overdue, aren’t we?” Angie concurred, saying, “Yeah, I agree! If they come our way, we’d be happy to have them all. We love children.”

Bow Wow Teams Up With Starbury

Superstar rapper and actor, Bow Wow, has signed on as a major player in the Starbury movement. Starbury, an American brand of sneakers and clothing created by NBA all-star Stephon Marbury and endorsed by Cleveland Cavalier Ben Wallace, is a pioneer in stylish and affordable athletic and lifestyle footwear and apparel. Bow Wow, who’ll be releasing his seventh album New Jack City Pt. II in March, recently negotiated a deal with the trailblazing brand to design a new line featuring clothes, shoes and sneakers for men, women, boys and girls. The collection, which will be both affordable and in line with the latest fashion trends, will be available for sale beginning in November 2009. Consumers will be able to purchase the merchandise at http://www.starbury.com/, http://www.princebow.com/ and http://www.amazon.com/.

Bow Wow is the first entertainer to join forces with the Starbury team. Starbury wanted to partner with Bow Wow in part because of the efforts that he has made to give back to the community throughout his career. On why he embraces the Starbury philosophy, Bow Wow says, “I think families should have a real choice. I want my fans to be able to wear nice shoes and clothing and to also have money in the bank. The smart consumer can have both.”

Bow Wow will help Starbury continue their mission of transforming the paradigm regarding quality and pricing. “At Starbury, consumers do not have to choose between fashion, style, quality, and affordability. They get all four,” says Marbury. Starbury expects other athletes and entertainers to join their movement in 2009. They hope to change the world through their efforts to provide high quality, yet reasonably priced clothing to the masses.
