Kanye and Kim Kardashian's Vogue Cover Revealed.


*Update

Kanye has been obsessed with getting Kim on the cover of Vogue, and it looks like he's finally gotten his way with the April 2014 Vogue issue. As if they haven't already totally saturated the media, Kanye and Kim (and even baby North) have temporarily taken over Vogue. I mean, look at that hashtag. I'm certain this issue will sell out.

Oh, and there's a behind the scenes video too featuring little North looking just like her dad. Check it out below:

Ye-didas.


Kanye's recently been on the interview circuit telling anybody that will listen about how he's been "marginalized" and shut out of the high fashion industry. From Sway in the Morning, to The Breakfast Club, to Shady FM, we've heard you loud and clear, Ye. They are not messing with your black ass. He'll also tell you about how Nike fudged him over and only allowed him to create two Yeezy's and how he didn't get any royalties out of the deal.

Even with all the buzz around his design aspirations and disgust at the high fashion world, Kanye has inked a deal with Adidas. They recently made a formal announcement:
“For 2014, we welcome to the Adidas family one of the most influential cultural icons of this generation, Kanye West. Well known for breaking boundaries across music, film and design and partnering with our history in street wear culture and leading innovations in sport, we look forward to creating a new chapter. Details to follow.”

I'm personally excited for the collaboration because even though Kanye can be a cry baby at times and rub everybody the wrong way, he's still very talented and passionate about what he does. It's rumored to be a 10 million dollar deal with royalties included, so maybe we'll start to see a much happier Kanye in the near future. Lets hope so, cuz Lord knows we don't got the answers.

Peace.

Wake Up Mr. West.


I am so tired of being disappointed by Kanye. I have always been a fan, even when he was snatching awards and running off at the mouth about his superiority because I liked his passion. And...he cracked me up. It seems like lately though, he's been a different kind of Kanye. One that has been tap dancing on my nerves.

First it was his Yeezus album and taking Jesus on tour with him. And now here he goes with some other garb. He was spotted leaving Barneys of all places, in this confederate flag coat, and I can't help but wonder why Kanye even gives a damn about the Confederate flag. He isn't from the Confederate South (not that it would give him a pass.) He isn't making a political statement; because what kind of statement would that be? Is he attempting to change the perception of the flag by encouraging black people to embrace it? Probably not. And even if he was, why would black people want to embrace that?

I honestly believe Kanye is just wearing shit to piss people off and get the internet talking (which apparently is working.) It's just that opinionated ass Kanye, of all people, shouldn't be endorsing a flag that literally represented the oppression of black people. This is the same person that was on TV talking about "George Bush doesn't like black people." My nigga, do you?

Kanye my friend....you're doing too much. Get it together.

What do you guys think about the latest Kanye publicity stunt?

$250 For a Plain Sweatshirt Though?


When Kanye's not being a parched drama queen, he's seems to still be a fashion designer. After much curiosity from the fashion world, he's released a line with A.P.C. titled the "Kanye West Collection." Clever name, right?

There are only 7 pieces, all solid basics like t-shirts, sweatshirts, and jeans. Sounds simple enough, but this is Kanye we're talking about. Allow me to drop the bomb on ya: the cheapest item from the Kanye West Collection is all of $120. And that is for a plain dark navy or white short sleeved tee. That t-shirt would have to be threaded with unicorn hair for me to even consider buying it. Certainly not prices for most people, but for those that can afford it,  it looks simple and clean.

Kanye Rocking a Red Ski Mask at Maison Martin Margiela's Paris Show.


Kanye recently made fashion headlines, as always....again, at Maison Martin Margiela's Fashion Show in Paris last week. This time it was all about this frayed red beanie/ ski mask. Now I can't tell if it was bought that way (I haven't seen any that look so DIY'd) or if one of his stylists were feeling adventurous and a little scissor happy. Nevertheless, he's wearing it. And what better place to wear it than a Margiela show, given their love of extreme headwear.

I will say this though: With all the extreme comments I've been reading about Kanye and his outlandish fashion choices, I can't help but want to defend him. Are you going to see me wearing a frayed ski mask on my head? Most likely no. BUT it doesn't look absolutely ridiculous, it looks Kanye. I am so not surprised anymore. He loves fashion just like the rest of us, and this is how he chooses to express himself. It doesn't make him weird, he's just adventurous....and I can't really be mad at that. I mean, it's just a red ski mask.

But anyway, he paired the red mask with an all white outfit, a black overcoat draped like a cape, and tan Visvim mocassin sneakers.

Most Fashionable People of 2012.

A$AP Rocky
I've realized that people try to play A$AP on the fashion tip. Take note
of this young man because he has it. Not only is he talented musically,
but he always looks dope. I feel like he takes major fashion
risks and executes nicely. He also is the only person I allow
to wear his hair like that. :)
Rihanna
'Nuff said
Solange
Hello Solo my doll. I probably featured Solange on
The Pretty Mustache a million times in 2012. Her love of African
inspired prints was fun and fresh. And her natural
hair styles were perfect compliments.
Kanye
I mean really though, nobody else does what Kanye does. As a black
man AND a rapper..shit, as a human, he really stretches the
boundaries of  what's normal...and I love him for it. 
Miroslava Duma
This is my girl right here. It never fails, she keep it trill
and always looks like a certified dime fresh off the
runway. I do not want to see her closet. I would
be too upset with my life.

Beyonce
We all know Beyonce is that chick, but I never pegged her as a fashionista
 until 2012 where she kinda came out of nowhere killing it. Baddie Bey,
on the Instagram circuit, really showed a new side of herself.
Mama likes.

Art Basel is one of the largest and most prestigious art shows in the world, and subsequently, it attracts art lovers everywhere and whole bag full of celebrities and artists. Celebs like Pharrell, Bey & Jay-Z, Cassie, Kanye, and more.

And of course there were lots of fabulous parties and music shows from the likes of Trinidad James, Danny Brown, and Azealia Banks. Catch me there next year gawking at some fabulous new innovative art piece. With music, art, and fashion, it's like the ultimate good time.

Happy Halloween: Celebrity Costumes of 2012

Diddy and his son Quincy

































To celebrate Halloween on The Pretty Mustache, I thought I'd make a fun little post of the celebrity Halloween costumes I've seen so far this year.

From Prince, mermaids, cats, and Che, they looked absolutely ridiculous and adorable all at the same time. That's pretty much the best description you can have if you ask me.

Are you dressing up this year?
Personally, I'll be at home giving young children cavities while enjoying a glass of wine, ya bish.
I'm about that life.

Check out Kim K., Kanye, Christina Milian, Cassie, LaLa, Chris Brown, and more below:
