Fashionable Mention: Iman in Balmain Pre-Fall 2015

Fashionable Mention Iman in Balmain Pre-Fall 2015

Here is a quick fashion nod to Iman who rocks the heck out of Balmain’s Pre-Fall 2015 collection. We had already posted regarding the fabulousity of these particular designs but when you add in the stunning grace of supermodel Iman it just takes things to another level. Moreover, we have said it once and we will continue to iterate that there is no way that this woman is 60!

Iman showcases the gorgeous Balmain creations in the latest issue of L’Officiel Netherlands which is appropriately entitled, “Sweet Sixty.” If we wind up looking that dang good in the coming years than we will know we are truly blessed with good genes like this sassy lady! Iman slays women half her age and does it all with elegance and sophistication. A true role model for any young girls aiming for the brightly lit stars.

Fashionable Mention Iman in Balmain Pre-Fall 2015-3

The color scheme and tailoring of the Balmain collection is simply bar none. We are loving the return of pleats which was a major hit and trend a few seasons back. Moreover, the use of florals in fall instead of spring is so airy and festive you begin to forget the dreary weather that is quickly approaching us all. Balmain is for the girl who is powerful yet feminine, bold yet oozing with finesse. If that’s you then you need to go ahead and submit to being a member of Oliver Rousteing’s army!

Biopic of Aretha Franklin With Singer/Actress Jennifer Hudson

Biopic of Aretha Franklin With Singer Actress Jennifer Hudson

Jennifer Hudson has had us emotionally charged in a good way for years whether she is on the big screen or during her fantastic live performances. Who can forget her amazing talents seen in the musical film Dreamgirls? Moreover, her chillingly touching tribute to Whitney Houston singing I Will Always Love You left one and all in a fog of entertainment bliss and adoration. It is clear… Jennifer Hudson has the gift of moving us through her use of music.

Nevertheless, it seems that the Oscar winner might once again engage in yet another musical project. This time it is in order to portray the legend herself, The Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin! We are hoping that Hudson gets the role nod because she definitely has the chops to pull off Franklin’s one of a kind voice. Really, what other singer than Jennifer Hudson could effortlessly belt out R-E-S-P-E-C-T?

Biopic of Aretha Franklin With Singer Actress Jennifer Hudson2

If given the role, could this mean another Academy Award for Jennifer? There is a very good chance because biopics on the famous tend to garnish much attention during award season. Think Will Smith in Ali, Angela Bassett in What’s Love Got to Do with It, Denzel Washington in Malcolm X and Jamie Fox in Ray. This is exciting news and we can’t wait to see the finished Aretha Franklin project on the big screen.
