Beyonce is all Hipster in Motherhood with Isabel Murant High Heel Sneakers
Bey is out here walking, and I’ve never seen (or maybe noticed) this relaxed “hipster” like style she has been rocking.

Beautiful Super Model is a Full Man | Andrej Pejic
This is so crazy to me, Andrej Pejic, is not a transvestite or had any work done. The long pretty haired girl in front of you is a natural born man (and still is). His face just looks this way. And he has grown his hair long and he walks around in heels. And get’s…

Kanye West Fall 2012 | Paris Fashion Week
So this is kanye’s second showing in the world of high fashion and I want to start by saying I commend him. For a person not educated in fashion design this is a huge undertaking that everyone can’t accomplish. BUT as he grows he is still lacking in creativity. Most of the design’s I’ve seen…
