Shoe Styling by Dekkori

Posted by WNO |


Are you one of the people who have those pair of shoes that you want to wear but simply can’t find anything to wear it with? or just can’t quite get with the style? Well, here is a quick and chic solution! I want to introduce you all to DeKKori a brand of shoe styling accessories and accents to change the style of any shoe completely to something a little more high fashion and modern. Prices ranging at about $60- $200, which to me is fairly reasonable because you can use these shoe accessories more than once on many different shoes, in many different ways and no one will take notice. The shoe accessories have been featured in many publications such as Vogue, Paper Magazine, Marie Claire, Zink, and W mag. One of my favorite editorial shots was with FC Mag (picture below).

Can you spot the Dekkori shoe accessory?


Trust me when I say accessories are the future, so let’s take one at a time and build

our wardrobe to the best of its ability!

Dreams!!

Posted by WNO |



Dreams…
**As I sit back, relax
Steam a blunt, sip a Becks
Think about the sexy singers that I wanna sex**

CallMeKarrie could never be a Kat Stacks or Karrine Steffans but I’d be lying if I said there aren’t a few celebs I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on. With the latest rounds of Ho Chronicles and Diary of a Jumpoff hitting the blogosphere, a girl can’t help but fantasize. There’s nothing wrong with fantasizing, right? (Here comes my WNO disclaimerà) No one’s advocating lowering your standards and dropping your vickies just because of a dude’s income or status… HOWEVER there are some sexy celebs that make you bite your bottom lip & think “he can get it”.


Click Here to Read More!!!

I’ve talked about some of my celeb crushes in other post, but since we are fam (aww!) I have decided to give you guys a front row seat to CallMeKarrie’s fantasies (the PG13 version of course). With the help of my fave Pretty Girls, I have compiled a list of the leading men in my dreams. In memory of my homie Biggie, I’ll start with rappers & singers.

First on my list is Tyrese (yummm!!!... and I guess technically he could go on the actors list as well but because his voice is one of his characteristics that make my heart melt, I’ll keep him right here). I am like a dude when it comes to aesthetics and Tyrese definitely fulfills that need (that chest, those teeth, oh my). Not only does Tyrese look good, he has a sexy personality as well. Fellas, if you are not already doing so, you need to follow him on Twitter (@Tyrese4Real). He gives great tips on how to please a woman.

Next up reppin’ for the rappers is Young Jeezy (I think he’s just Jeezy now but whatev). Jeezy was submitted by my Pretty Girl Committee as the “Thug Fantasy”. We may settle down with the good guy but every girl wants to get it in with the bad boy and Jeezy’s song “Tear It Up” makes him the perfect bad boy candidate.
Other sexy music celeb honorable mentions include:

  • Trey Songz
  • TI
  • Travis Barker
  • 50 Cents

Next, we’ll move on to the actors. The guy that seems to be topping everyone’s list at the moment is Idris Elba. I have witnessed his sexy up close & personal. Not only does he look good, his British accent is definitely a turn-on (did I tell yall how he kissed me on both cheeks and tweeted from my Blackberry **swoon**).

Other sexy celeb honorable mentions include:

  • Lance Gross
  • George Clooney
  • Mekhi Phiffer
  • Omar Epps
  • Bradley Cooper

Now we will move on to the ballers. The sexy bodies these athletes have make it very easy to lust over them. In this category, I have to give the first honors to Chad OchoCinco (If you don’t like Chad… GIRL, YOU TRIPPIN!!! Lol). He’s crazy & sexy and I LUV IT! I can’t get enough of this dude, he even got me voting for him on DWTS (and his dancing isn’t even that good, lol). The Pretty Girls & I have decided to have an old school Brandy & Monica – The Boy Is Mine battle for Chad the next time the Bengals are in town (or when I roll up on him in MIA, whichever occurs first).
Other sexy athlete honorable mentions include:

  • David Beckham
  • devin thomas
  • darren sharper
  • Chris Paul

This last category is my fave. I’ll refer to these guys as sexy intellectuals, lol. I almost feel bad for putting these fine gentlemen on my trivial list, but I absolutely love smart guys and they’re hot so they deserved to be recognized. In this category, I give my top honors to Dr. Marc Lamont Hill. He’s a Columbia professor, Fox News political contributor and FINE! What more can a girl ask for. I’m a self-proclaimed nerd and nothing excites me more than a good looking, successful, intelligent, well spoken man (queue Beyonce’s Dangerously In Love).

One of my Pretty Girls described actor/author Hill Harper as her “Bookworm Lover”. After reading his book The Conversation I can’t blame her. There is nothing sexier than a man who is willing to put in work to find, keep, and please a good woman.

I hope you guys enjoyed this brief but intimate trip into the mind of CallMeKarrie. I know there are many, many sexy guys that I have omitted but I’ll save those for another time. Imma have to start a separate blog, WNO After Dark or some ish like that to really give yall CallMeKarrie – The Raw Uncut. Until then, please leave a comment and let me know about all of your celeb fantasies.

Karl Lagerfeld Dabbles with Coke!

Posted by WNO |



Just ran into this on one of our favorite sites Colette. Karl Lagerfeld and Coca-Cola teamed up to design a bottle that was targeted to get more women to purchase the drink.. W-N-O definitely gives it the official stamp.. What better way to get women to think about being sexy and healthy, than to solicit the help of one of fashions best known icons to design your bottle! Ladies pick up your Karl Lagerfeld inspired Coke Here.

New VESPA 150cc i.e. ECO-SMART ENGINE FAMILY

Posted by WNO |



Check out the new Environment Friendly Vespa's....


NEW YORK, April 1, 2010 – Italian manufacturer Piaggio, recognized for ground-breaking technology and legendary style, has equipped its 2011 Vespa S 150, LX 150 and LXV 150 models with new 150cc electronic fuel-injected engines that are even more miserly at the gas pump than the previous generation. Consuming 15 percent less fuel than its predecessor, the new powerplant wrings up to 85 miles out of each gallon of gas, all the while delivering an endless supply of fun and riding thrills. In addition, the new engine design also provides stronger, smoother acceleration in stop-and-go traffic, an especially important performance trait for metro commuters.


Green Isn’t a Trend – It’s a Commitment

While fuel price peaks and valleys have introduced thousands of consumers to the benefits of scooter ownership, choosing to swap some driving miles for riding miles isn’t just a trend when gas costs spike. For environmentally conscious consumers, it’s a lifelong commitment. The addition of the new 150cc injected engine family within the popular mid-range category adds even more reasons for consumers devoted to reducing fuel consumption, carbon emissions and congestion to make the switch to two wheels.

MSRP for Vespa 150 i.e. models starts at $4,399 for the 2011 Vespa S 150 i.e.
