Sophie Theallet

Sophie Theallet, a Council of Fashion Designers of America (CDFA)/Vogue Fashion Fund Award Finalist put on a fantastic show.  Ms. Theallet is one of the lucky designers who has benefitted greatly from First Lady Michelle Obama's support. "The First Lady has helped my name to be known," the designer modestly admitted a few days ago. Take a look at some of the pieces from her beautiful collection.

Flawless in Pink

After a much needed vacation, Michelle is back at it. I'm not going to get into the speech or the blatant disrespect on the part of a certain individual in the audience. Right now, it's all about the outfits, and Mrs. Obama and Mrs. Biden look FABULOUS.

I'm still shocked over the resignation of White House Green Czar Van Jones. How he can be persecuted for comments made years ago is beyond me. His absence is a true loss for the administration.

CNN's TJ Holmes and actor/author Hill Harper discuss "The Conversation", Harper's new book on Black relationships. Harper seems to be suggesting that both men and women should abide by the Laws of Attraction to find a compatible mate.
Check out the interview above.

Insanity



Normally, I wouldn't dare post anything Fox News related on this blog, but when I saw this video I felt it was relevant to share. For anyone that is familiar with Glenn Beck and his asinine commentary, it is very clear that he is beyond misinformed. If you find yourself watching even a minute of his show you will probably witness one of his many tirades or meltdowns.

Whatever the case may be, Beck now believes that he is an art historian/critic and took it upon himself to explain how a few public art pieces are linked to Communism, Fascism and Progressives (as if the three have everything to do with one another). This is exactly how false information is spread. I'm sure this man has little to no knowledge about art, yet he speaks as if he does. To witness the insanity, check out the video above. Also, be sure to check out Christopher Knight's commentary on Culture Monster.
