Ever want to tell someone off, but held your tongue for the sake of peace? Well now you can wear your feelings on your neck with these fun potty mouthed accessories from Paris based vintage store Locher’s:
Today we have yet another exclusive with TV darlings, fashionistas, and sneaker entrepreneurs…
….Vanessa and Angela Simmons!
The saucy siblings certainly have their own stylish steeze and decided to share a few of their favorites with you!
In terms of personal style Vanessa says, “I would describe my personal style as classic chic with an edgy twist. You’ll see a lot of black in my wardrobe, but I do like color.“
She continues, “I have long legs and I’m tall so I like wearing dresses and skirts.” Angela adds, “It’s always hard for me to describe my personal style because I’m always changing it up. In my closet you’ll see a lot of different colors–I have a lot of dresses in gold but you’ll see me wearing yellows, silvers, pinks, purples, and oranges! I also like my shoulders so you’ll see me wearing a lot of strapless dresses and shirts to show them off.“
They continue, “When we kick back we usually love sweats and our Pastry Sweetie terry hoodies and pants. They’re sooo comfortable!“
In terms of designers, Vanessa says, “One of my favorite designers is Karl Lagerfeld and for shoes I love Christian Louboutin.” Angela says, “My favorite designers are Chanel, Roberto Cavalli and YSL.”
Of course they had to indulge their beauty must haves! Vanessa says, “I love Fresh’s products for their bath cubes and Sugar Lychee lotion (which I’ve been using for years). For make-up I love MAC and my favorite perfume right now is Versace Bright Crystal.” Angela says, “My favorite perfume right now is Juicy Couture by Juicy Couture. I still love smelling like a baby so Johnson & Johnson products are always in my cabinet! Plus they have a new line called Melt Away Stress that has a hint of lavender–it’s really good. I don’t wear much make-up, but I like Lancome Definiciles mascara.”
Lastly, the girls had a few thoughts on trends. Vanessa says, “I’m over Ed Hardy and trucker caps!” Angela says, “I don’t care what anyone says, I think Herve Leger bandage dresses are still killer. I love my black Herve Leger bandage skirt in black and my purple vintage dress.”
In closing, the girls encourage everyone to keep it real. They say, “Being in the public eye hasn’t really affected our style. You’ll still see us out in our sweats on busy days and glammed up at special events. We just like to have fun!“

Beyonce was recently spotted in London looking like she just emerged from the pool:
She topped of a pair of red peep toes and acid washed jeans with a slim fitting tank and Ray-Ban sunglasses. I think she’s going for the wavy hair look, but might not have read our post from yesterday–looks like she needs some Defrizz, hmm…
Check out the video below for an inspirational message from André Leon Talley and Isabel and Ruben Toledo:
André says, “Don’t give up even if it takes you 30 years…It doesn’t matter as long as you have within your universe something that sustains you every day until your goal is met….It’s not time that matters, it’s the quality of work, the quality of the vision, and the quality of the dream.”
I’m in it for the long haul, aren’t you? I’m locked in as Diddy would say!
