Can Somebody Buy Me These?


My Lover made these...
His name is Christian. Christian Louboutin...

For anyone wanting to but me these please do inquire about the shipping address!

Stanks!


You look like a horse!


Ahahahahaaaa!
I hope the designer of these shoes wasn't serious when he made these and put his name on it! (Psssst... his name is Rick... Rick Owens! You clown, you!)
He must think women look like horses to wanna make their feet look like a Clydesdale's!

Honestly, they would've been fine without the black sheet! Right?




Let's do a little experiment to see if he was on the right track... Ahahahaaaa...

Parental Advisory: This post may contain content that may not be suitable for a young'n's eyes. If they see this while you're looking, don't you blame me!

Mmmkay...
As we were saying... the experiment! Ahhh, yes!

And we shall continue...

Here it is...



LOL! We gotta keep it classy up in here!

And for those of you who think I'm hatin', that is sooo not the case!
To each it's own!

Lol!

"Turn the Lights Out and Listen Tuesday"- MGMT- Electric Feel

How do I love thee?
Let me count the ways...
MGMT is definitely on that good ish! I call it
The Good Ship, Lollipop! Well, that's the only explanation I could come up with! I really love the feel that this record gives me... it's just something kind of smooth. It's quite the random thing, too! Those characters from Chuck E Cheese were playing the instruments! Watch it! You'll see!
Appreciate this video by itself for the simple fact someone actually dug deep into their imagination to produce such a unique style of video to compliment this track. Brilliant!
I should've been up in this video with Adel Abouelala! Yo, that would've been crazy! You need us to stand there doing random things?! Done! Yeeeeeah...
This track is far from the noise you hear on the radio... I guess the radio doesn't like good music most of the time. Humph!
Do enjoy!
Now, get it on your iPod... You're welcome!

illMonic presents MGMT!

Fierce & Fun Fashion Friday: Do We Not Love This?

I mean, really...
How sexy is this bathing suit?!
REALLY SEXY!
Although, Christian Dior came out with this piece back in February 2009, let me tell you that I'd rock this joint every dag on summer without shame! And you know what? I'd pose just like this on the beach with that same bracelet and pair of sunglasses! Trust, I will not even care who looks at me funny like, what the "f" is that girl doing?! Whatever, dude, I'm sexy! Don't even hate!
You know, looking at this, it's not very much going on as far as the details, but it's just the right amount of a little bit that did the trick. Hmmm... I wonder what the back looks like. I hope it's not a thong... Nah, I don't think they'd do that to this nice piece of brilliance...

My rating? 3 snaps in a mutha f-ing circle!

Get it!

It's the Fonz! Fonzworth Bentley, that Is!!!

Whaaaat?! When did Fonzy come back out with another album? I mean, where have I been?! Wherrre?! Yo, I'm diggin' this record of his- featuring Mr. Anthony Hamilton!
It's a bit banal compared to what we expect and know of him to but he's on point with this one here! Just a little bit of sugar is nice! Yeah, he's still dressed to impress and I must say that I dooo love his style! Quite weird that he started off as Diddy's umbrella boy, but hey! You get it boy! This is one smooth track right here! Welcome to my iPod, Fonzy!


Introduciiiiiiiing... JADE!

This is my oldest niece, Jade!
This little girl cracks me up!
Just thought that I'd post it because I was completely tickled by her...
Watch the way she runs out like it was an emergency! Ahahahahaaaa!

Sorry for the briefness of this post, she gave me quite the long list for my new job as the Clean-up Crew! Lol!

Love you, my little sugar muffin!

Turn the Lights Out and Listen Tuesday: Maze and Frankie Beverly- Happy Feelin's

This is one record I could ne-verrr get tired of. If you want a classic, this is definitely one that never loses it's groove. I love it when musical geniuses find each other and create such bliss to my ears! I could hug this record! Awwwh! Couldn't you? I could! Right? I know!
Vibin'.
This track right here is smoooooth and promotes much of what we need with all that's happening in the world right now. Just for a moment, let's throw it all to the wind, baby! Forget about that article due, classes tomorrow, forget about work! Get you a nice glass of _____- whatever your poison... Dim the lights... get your man or lady and enjoy yourselves. Or who even cares if you dance by yourself?! That's normal- I know I do it!
Vibe... oooooh, that's nice, right?
Yessss...
Yessss...
I know...

You're welcome.

Get it!

Beware! Lock Your Car Doors! Dummy on the Loose!

So, as very few of you may be aware, after a 2 year hiatus, I flew back to my old lover, New York, to visit my sister and her family for a few days last week.
On the first day that I arrived, I took my sister's car and went to get a few things from Shop Rite with my mother. All done. As we began to walk to the car, my mother remembered that she needed to go to Money Gram (which was in Cigar Aficion). We went. As we exited, she decided that she wanted to walk to the shoe store. We went. Afterwards, I remembered that I needed to go to 99cents City (which was really disappointing because it was no longer a city filled with just 99cent items- it was filled with items costing 99cents + $2, $3, $4 and $5!!! What the heezy?! Then it should no longer be called 99cents City! It should be called 199cents City! Or how about 299cents City?! How about that?!)
Pety letter to the owner:
Dear 99cents City,
How could you deceive me this way?! HOW?! LIARRRRRR! Oh, and you suck!
-illmonic

Anywaaaaaays...
My mom said, "You go and I'll bring the car over!"
I said, "Mmmkay!"
I paid for the stuff and my mother and I started to walk back to the car.

DUN! DUN! DUNNNNNNN!

This is where it gets crazy!
Mmmkay...

Background Information:
My sister just got a new car- it's pretty cool. I like it! But, for some reason, (sorry Jesca! Love youuu!) she always has something on her floor! ALLLLLLLLways!
Ahahahahahahhaaaaa!
That's funny!
Today, or that day, rather, it was a newspaper.

Moving on...

We start walking back to the car and I approached the passenger side. My mom walked around the back. I opened the door, hopped in and I was deeply touched! I saw that my mother removed the newspaper from the floor when she moved the car. I don't know how she could've seen it from the driver's seat, but yeah! Awwwwh!
But, wait... where in the H-E double hockey sticks did that pink jacket come from?!
And wth put these seat covers on the chairs?!
Who the heck's carrr is dis?!
OMG!
I DON'T KNOW!
GET OUT! Shut the door! I said to myself as I tried to escape from the UNcrime I had just committed! And this is New York! Whaaaat?! OMG! Somebody is going to see me! Oh, sugar and spice! RUNNNNNNNN, GIRL! RUNNNNNNNNNNN!
But, I had on some flip flops! I can't look cute running in some flip flops! C'mon son! Luckily, I saw this kid that had on some Jordan's and I said, "Son, can I borrow your Jordan's?"
He gave me the look. That let me know to keep it movin'...
I did!
I skedaddled my happy little self all the way up to my mother who was looking at me like Iiiiiii was the crazy one!
Apparently, she walked around the car I had gotten into and back to my sister's car!
Ahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa!

Oh, that wasn't her car?! Oooops! My bad!
Next time lock your car lady! I could've taken that pink jacket!

Ahahahahahaaha!!!

The End.

I'm not ashamed of myself.

A day in the life of Monic'... You're welcome! :0)

DISCLAIMER: A very small part of this post was, in fact, fabricated. But, I could've asked a kid to borrow his Jordan's... except for the simple yet, very real fact that I don't wear sneakers.

Ahhh, well!

Get it!

I have fans?! Whaaaat?!


So, I must admit that I didn't know so many people actually read my blog! Not many of them have subscribed but, I cannot tell you just how many people have inquired about my MIA blog posts! Golly, geeee whiz! Shucks, ya'll I didn't know! I have been thinking that it may be pointless because hardly anyone reads my pieces. So, I guess that's one of the reasons I haven't posted. Truly, I thought just a few close friends that paid attention, but, yo! I have so many people that read! They haven't subscribed (hint-hint!) as of yet, but, yes! I have people that read! Wowza! Allow me to apologize for the delay... I am now back in full swing!

Thank you all for reading and nagging me!
Sincerely, it means the world to me!

I love you! ( Insert big cheese smile here)

Are you kidding me?! Oh... you're not? Ooops! Sorry... I didn't know you were serious!

So, this was featured in Japan's 2010 Fashion Womp, I mean Japan's 2010 Fashion Week by a fashion designer that shall remain nameless for the obvious reasons...
Introduuucing...
Innntroooduuucing...
Hmmm...
Well...
You, know I don't know what the heezy this is... maybe we can put on our thinking caps and try... I mean, really, really try to figure out what this is! Because I just don't know!
I'm mad and irritated now.


Thinking caps onnn!
Shooooop!
OMG...
Let's converse about this image for a few moments...
I guess she is going to keep smiling like that because she thinks she's cute...
Really?! Oh dear goodness...
Wakka-wakka...
Ahahahahaaaaa!
WHAT is dat on her head?!
I mean, what?!

I think somebody needs to go shopping for another thinking cap...

Fierce & Fun Fashion Friday: Do We Not Love This? (Double Feature)


OMG! Shut UP!
I could cry!
Yo, Christian Louboutin is one bad mutha!
He is a straight genius! You could tell by his website that he's on something we've never heard of! But, whatever it is... Keep sipping! Go check out his website! Pure entertainment and incredible style! I love him! I really do!

Fierce & Fun Fashion Friday: Do We Not Love This?

Awwwh! Look how cute this is!
Now, some of you might question me for cosigning on this one, but I find it to be quite fun even if she isn't fully dressed! But, who cares! You could walk around the house like this! Good going Patricia Van Der Vliet for mixing stripes with polka dots! Hey, I'm all for it! For the Sex in the City 2 release I wore a mix of print and stripes with black high heels! Loved it!
Now, don't get it twisted, mmmkay? I didn't say rock an outfit with two different types of plaid, mmmkay? THAT is a straight up fashion violation and you should be issued some kind of penalty for walking around looking like a dummy- just like those chicks that wear Uggs with short jeans skirts in the dead middle of Florida's Summer! ARE YOU CRAZY?! Huh?! Are you? Are you crazy?! Apparently, and the friend you're walking with doesn't really like you because they let you walk out the house looking like whodunnitandwhy! Did you not get the "It's 97 degrees outside today, so wear flip flops" memo?!
(Inhale... exhale...)

Anyway...
Moving on...
I love this... I would skip around the house in it, too!
Don't judge me!
GET IT!

This particular performance wasn't as good as when I saw hear perform, but it's enough to have you guys appreciate it! Please listen and listen hard! This is a serious situation right here!
Get it, Corrine!

Sex and the City 2

First of all... it was great!
Not as amazing as the first but it was nothing less than what I expected.
It opened up with vocals stylings of Jay-Z and Alicia Keys' New Yorrrk which was of course suiting for the movie. What followed immediately after that was quite the shocker- Standford and Anthony got hitched!
Whaaaaaat?!
Yeah! Iiiiiiii knnnow!
Now, that made me gasp considering they hated each other's guts for yeeeeeears!
Then, of course it had it's hilarious moments...
sad moments...
and moments that made you pout your lip and moan, "awwwh."
For me, I've missed the drama, the fashion- I've missed the gals! But let's be honest- it was more fashion than anything else. It really felt like they were forcing everyone's story into the movie and somehow (although he made a brief appearance in the beginning of the movie) Steve was left in the dust. Lol! Not that he had anything crazy going on anyway!
I could be hard on this movie because I am, in fact, a die hard Sex and the City fan.
Perhaps, it's selfish of me to criteek this movie as much as possible because I'm sure this is the last run for the ladies. I wanted more! MORRRRRRRRRRE!
Ok...
So, let's get dirty...
Liza Minelli kills Beyonce's Put a Ring on it. I mean, she really held it down! Get it!
Aiden pops up outta nowhere as the ladies take a trip to Abu Dhabi on a business trip, on behalf of Samantha Jones. What made me mad was the fact that Aiden kept picking Carrie up and spinning her around like he lost his sense! He knew she was married! Jerk! But allow me to point an index finger off of each hand- one at Aiden and the other at Carrie! Yes, the went out to dinner and yes they kissed! OMG! I know!
Ooops! Sorry for the spill...
Let's talk fashion...

Monic's Official Fashion Wishlist:
The breathtaking Christian Louboutin Sparkly gold heels.
Oh, yes... I do love my shoes... I could hug Mr. Louboutin for making these.
Excuse me while I cry...











I won't say too much, except for expect another update once everyone has seen the movie.

Fun Tool!

Turn the Lights Out and Listen Tuesday: Adele- Chasing Pavements

You know, the very first time I heard this song it was in the morning on VH1. It was one of the videos played by new artist, Adele... incredible. I would recommend turning the lights out once you've watched the video a few times. She hardly fits into the Old School Classics category I've been posting on Tuesdays, however, she is an artist with a stronger substance than most artists out today. I love her voice- the way it crackles a bit with her little accent. Awh! It's quite soulful, in fact, I literally drown in this track specifically because I can relate to the words and the feelings the gestures inflict in this video.
Oh, how I love the concept of this video... I could hug it! It's crazy because it shares with you the paradise experienced between the two lovers in the midst of disaster. Perhaps, it suggests the moments someone experiences before something incredibly terrible happens- "my life flashed before my eyes!" In this case, it seems their souls are the ones reflecting since their lives have already expired. Jeeez, truly I hope they (the lovers) were still basking in the happiness they lived after the were killed. But, wait! The deception! That cheating lint licker of a woman! She gives good women bad names!
In any case... this is a great song... get it on your iPod ASAP! AND! She has another track I love off of the same album entitled, 19, released in 2008. That's a must-have! Get it!
Enjoy!
