Food-Inspired Jewellery is a Fashion Fiesta


Mixing food and fashion can get messy really quickly unless the food is tastefully incorporated into jewellery.  The art of wearing your lunch is a fashion trend that will get you noticed.  And trust me there is no such thing as bad publicity in fashion where the object is to get noticed.  And beyond getting noticed, setting the trend in your circle of friends with some of these appetizing accessories might just be worth exploring.

These miniature food-themed jewellery are often made from Polymer clay, a scultable PVC material which contains no clay at all.  Easily categorized as a choking hazard for the underaged, these brightly coloured jewels inspire gourmet ready names like tasty trinkets, chilli charms, cupcake brooches, and burger bracelets.

A quick glance at the pink chicken wing necklace on Nicki Minaj shown above challenges anyone to pull this bold look off and not feel like a chicken wing, takes some courage I tell ya.  So if the pink chicken wing is too rare for your taste, how about some of the vegetarian flavours, like the sliced avocado earrings or the green apple finger ring?  Yup, fruit-inspired jewellery are healthy and haute, so put cherry-topped whipped cream ring on your finger and start strutting.

Bon appetit fahionistas. Bon appetit!

BET Awards 2012, The Finest Dresses

The 2012 BET Awards concluded this past weekend at the Shrine Auditorium, Los Angeles with some of the notable stars showing in elegant dresses flashing long legs and flaunting assets.  For Beyonce, Mariah Carey and Brandy there is no question they are enjoying motherhood, giving how fit they looked.

Beyonce was dressed in yellow, the hottest colour of the night, with a long slit baring a lot of legs.  Her friend Kim Kardashian wore white, colour-coordinating with Kanye West, a tight fitting, very low back gown, but she pulled it off elegantly.

Nicki Minaj who does not skip an opportunity to flaunt her booty busted animal print tights for her bottoms.  Mariah Carey and Brandy were relatively conservative in their ensembles but very graceful nonetheless.

The Nicki Minaj Bold Beautiful Fashion Style

Her style is bold and beautiful to her fans.  The same style has been described as over the top.  Regardless of how you describe Nicki Minaj's fashion style, she turn heads and sells albums.

Born to parents from Saint James, Trinidad and Tobago as Onika Tanya Maraj, she moved to New York City Borough of Queens at age 5.

For Nicki it was the turmoil in her early life that will drive her to success. Her Dad, a chronic drug abuser piled torment on the family.  In one of the family lows, he set fire to their home in a botched attempt to kill Nicki's mom. "I've always had this female-empowerment thing in the back of my mind because I wanted my mother to be stronger, and she couldn't be. I thought, if I'm successful, I can change her life" was how Nicki will sum it all up in a powerful sentiment how you can draw strength and inspiration from adversity.

She attended La Guardia High School of Music and Art where she developed her craft. She took on backup singing roles for some local New York artists to get in the game and then she started writing her own material.  When Dirty Money CEO Fendi listened to her music on her Myspace page, he signed her immediately to his label.  This will later lead her to Lil Wayne who will showcase her talent and style in various collaborations and the rest is history.

Last year while in Playa del Carmen, Mexico I heard her Super Bass single off the Pink Friday album played so many times it grew on me, you can listen to it here. Nicki Minaj has collaborated with some of the best out there including Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Rihanna and Justin Bieber.
