Über Goodies: Man Down - Rihanna

Über Talk: R.I.P. to LRG Co-Founder Jonas Bevacqua

Jonas Bevacqua, age 34, was found dead in Los Angeles earlier today. He is best known for co-founding LRG (Lifted Research Group) a popular hip hop clothing line.
There has been no known cause of death just yet, however sources are saying he may have passed away in his sleep.
LRG’s ties with the hip hop community are strong, with many prominent names shown modeling their fashion in a series of ads. Alchemist, Smif-N-Wesun, Drake and legends such as Pete Rock, DJ Jazzy Jeff and De La Soul have sported LRG wears in advertisements over the years. The brand also had close ties with star athletes such as Memphis Grizzlies standout player Rudy Gay and New Orleans Saints running back Reggie Bush. New Young Jeezy signee Freddie Gibbs also joined the fray, modeling some LRG gear for the company’s 2011 summer campaign. - D.L. Chandler of MTV

Überchic's hearts goes out to both him and his family.

DIY: Studded Sneakers

 I've seen the studded Chuck Taylor's for sale forever but never wanted to pay the hefty price tag (I save that for the real knock out shoes!)  Hello DIY!

All you need is:

• A pair of Converse Hi Top Chuck Taylors
• Pyramid Studs with prongs (iron ons won't quite cut it)
• A flat head screwdriver, butter knife, or any tool with a flat surface

Just poke each stud through the canvas and flatten the prongs with your tool and...VIOLA!

I ended up using 27 per sneaker.  I plan on adding another row or so, but by the time I finished putting 54 in, I literally lost some feeling in a few of my fingers.  So now that I have the feeling back I can go in and add in a few more!

Fashion: The Worst Of May

So the theme of this worst-dressed list is.... MOM! MOTHERS! MOMMA! MOTHERFFFUU... Okay, maybe not that.

JLo in Hakaan

Moms.... Sometimes they need to be reminded that "No one needs to know that you're not wearing your panties today...."

JLo in Jenny Packham

Sometimes their 5-year-old daughter yells at'em: "Mom... Stop wearing my dress! Seriously.. My ballet recital starts in 5 more minutes..."

Sarah Jessica Parker in Valentino

Sometimes they make their mother proud by wearing granma's art craft project.

Halle Berry in Halston

Moms... sometimes they just wanna embrace their c-section scars...

Heidi Klum in Vivienne Westwood

Moms... sometimes they're just.... f**king Heidi Klum.

January Jones in Preen

Sometimes they just happen to have a f**kin' black hole on'em tummy that sucks their dress into it.

Jennifer Aniston in Vivienne Westwood

Like every other moms out there, they gotta breastfeed'em babies...sometimes in public.

Sheryl Crow in Alberta Ferretti

And sometime they're just....Sheryl Crow?

Awwwww... MOTHERS. Sometimes, no. Most of the times they had to talk about a lot of stuff with their daughters. Things like:

Lucy Hale

"Sit down honey. We need to talk about something. Have you ever heard of the terms 'sensible shoes'? Don't worry honey, mommy's here. I'll guide you.."

Chloe Sevigny

"Skirts up, young lady!"

Jennifer Lawrence in Altuzarra

"How many times have I told you: NO CROTCH IN PUBLIC!"

Jessica Szohr

"Okay. Where the hell is my bedsheet?"
 

Liv Tyler in Stella Mccartney

"What did I told you about wearing a sequel of Kate Winslet's unfinished marker pen dress?"

Rihanna in Max Azria

"Oh, you look so sweet my little munchkin, my baby doll, kuci kuci kuci mumumumumumumumumuuu... Now before you go out, what about giving ur mommy a big wet kiss on the cheek? There you go... Now don't forget to wear your napkin before you eat and come back home before dinner okay?"

Solange Knowles

"When life gives you lemon, you KNOWLES what you should actually made right?"

Miley Cyrus in WTB

"WTB? More like WTF!"

Okay, maybe only a drunken-ass, alcoholic mother would say that but WTH?

Fashion: The Best Of May

It's the end of the month and I'd like to sum up the fabulousness.

Kate Hudson in Versace     

She wore this lemon-y yellow dress to one of the premiere of 'Something Borrowed'. Well the color is a little bit washed-out but I kinda like the dress on her and the back of the dress looks pretty.

Miranda Kerr in Herve Leger by Max Azria   

This is not pretty or interesting or stylish whatsoever. This is just hot.

Emmy Rossum in Monique Lhuillier  

At first I thought this dress she wore to the Beauty Culture event was Mcqueen. I don't know. Maybe it's the design. Anyway, I love the fitting and the color and she really looks pretty here.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Max Mara    

I hate you all Victoria's Secret bitches! Always know how to make me think the simplest, non-color dress as stylish. But this is actually kinda chic. Love her fierce hair with that leopard-print clutch but hate those shoes.

Katie Holmes in Madewell     

I know! Katie Holmes? In a best-dressed list?

I love the second pic. It's so "Oh I'm so fucking fabulous and I hope people noticed that instead of me looking tired and weary all the time cause I'm married to a scientologist freak and I have I have to keep my eyes on my kid all the time. Sigh. Kids nowadays. I let'em outa my sight for only a second and they start picking up penis-shaped gummies."
Well I hate those boots but overall this look is kinda chic.

Rachel Mcadams in Louis Vuitton  

Someone is having her very own Monroe moment here... Well, I love the dress on her but her lipstick was a very poor choice. And that hair is a little aging too.

Gisele Bundchen in Emanuel Ungaro     

Fabulous bitch.

Ginnifer Goodwin in Herve Leger    

As much as I hate her, I think this dress is kinda awesome. Love the detailing.

Anna Paquin in Herve L. Leroux

J'adore perfection. Hey it's the best dressed list. What do you expect me to say?

Emma Stone in Lanvin    

I know how shiny pink dress have a tendency to look tacky and stuff but this pink, paired with that pink pout of her is really striking against her pale skin and blonde hair. Perfection.

But..... The Best Dressed of This Month goes to...

Miss Penelope in this striking liquid red Armani Prive gown she wore to the  Munich premiere of POTC On Stranger's Tides. Why I love it? More like, why I shouldn't?

Worst of May later.
