Meet The Anthony's: JLo, Max, and Emme!

Proud parents Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez show off their beautiful bundles of joy on the much anticipated cover of this week's People Magazine. The editors of People oohhh and ahhhed over the tiny twins and discussed everything from JLo's weight gain to how she found out about the pregnancy.

The magazine hits stands on Friday, March 21st, and I have to admit I'll be first in line to get my lotto ticket (you never know) and my magazine.

Shoe Fetish: Chanel Patent Leather Mary Jane!




When I say that I love Beyonce...I'm not playing! The girl is serious when it comes to her shoe game, and these Chanel Mary Janes are proof that if you can't hang with the big girls, get off the porch!

You too can pick up a pair of these mod beauties for a mere $800 plus.

She Did That!

FabStyle: Brea "BStar" Stinson

I had the pleasure of meeting this fab SiStar at the Armoire Couture Fashion Expo a couple of weeks ago and I fell in love with the jacket she was rocking! So, you know I had to get all the information, including where I could find one. She informed me that she was the designer of the jacket as well as a stylist to the Stars (no wonder she looked so fabtastic!)

Ms. Brea is definitely a Get 'Em Girl and her BStar designs are Get 'Em Girl Approved! You can check out some of her styles on her myspace profile: myspace.com/breabstar as well as on Get 'Em Girls, Kerry Hilson and Chrisette Michelle (speaking of which, I'm so loving the new Chrisette Michelle single "Be Okay"...check it out, we already told you it was hot in the Delicious Life...now stop playing and pick it up!) For information on purchase one or both of the jackets shown in the pictures below, please contact Brea "BStar" Stinson at: info@bstarinc.com.

I have on a dress momma!(shout out to Alice, thanks for showing me a great time)




Last night I attended Patty Laurent's birthday party and I had a BALL! For those of you who don't know Patty is one of the top black female party promoters in NYC. The party was sponsored by King Magazine and Alador & Smith clothing. Patty had requested that all guest dress to impress so for the most part women were in fabulous dresses and men were looking handsome in their blazers. Trey Songz, J. Holiday, Maino, Taj (SWV), Nik (American Next Top Model), Megan Good, Thomas Jones along with friends and family members came out to celebrate with Patty. D Nice, DJ Goldfinger and DJ Cassidy along with the Lotus bartenders kept the party live and flowing. J. Holiday serenaded Patty with his own rendition of "Happy Birthday" followed by a couple of his album cuts. Trey Songz added the icing on the cake with an impromptu performance of "Can't Help But Wait." All in all I had a great time and I actually wore a nice dress for a change. HAPPY BIRTHDAY PATTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUEEN ALERT: Mary J. Blige Exclusive




We were fortunate enough to get our hands on an exclusive copy of Mary's eighth studio album entitled "Growing Pains." THE QUEEN IS BACK! If you have been riding with Mary since "What's the 411?" now is not the time to get off the train. This album will make you dance, sing, cry and testify. For all of you Mary fans who want the scoop on "Growing Pains" read below for the track listing and a synopsis of each song.

1. Work That- If you have seen the new Apple Ipod commercials than you have heard this song. Ladies stop running from the Queen you can be becoming and work what you got!

2. Grown Woman w/ Ludacris- "Now who you talking to baby I'm Grown!" Mary said don't let the Seven jeans fool ya.

3. Just Fine- the lead off track for "Growing Pains" perfectly sets off the tone of the album; fun and fresh.

4. Feel Like a Woman- Ladies we all know there is some days you want to be rescued. You do not want to compete, argue or be in control you just want to feel like a woman.

5. Stay Down- throughout the good and bad, stay down. The drama will not last forever.

6. Hurt Again- We've all been there. You start catching feelings for someone, you want to tell them how you feel... but past relationships have made you vow not to get hurt again.

7. Shake Down w/ Usher- This is a stick up! Hold me tight and don't put up a fight. Mary and "Ursher" are robbing you for your love.

8. Till The Morning- Mary takes us back to the Rooftop Skating rink with this fun free spirit song. Grab your skates and your best dance moves and come party till the morning.

9. Roses- It's just one of those days, we all have them. Mary said sometimes she just needs a hug, because everyday ain't all roses.

10. Fade Away- when the tears are falling, wouldn't it be nice if we all had the power to fade away for a moment; invisibility would be great.

11. What Love Is- Mary sings about her definition of love on this heart felt ballad.

12. Work In Progress (Growing Pains)- Yes Mary has grown from the young girl in the alley singing "Real Love," however she is still a work in progress.

13. Talk to Me- "Ain't no telling lies, ain't no holding back, ain't no tip toeing we to0 good for that!" Mary belts out. Any day, anytime, any hour, talk to me if you want to make things work.

14. If You Love Me? You got to remember the way that you got me, because that's the way you remember the way to keep me. Spend some time, make me smile; enough said Mary!

15. Smoke- Holding on isn't healthy, but it's killing her to let go! Get the smoke out of your eyes girl..lol

16. Come to Me (Peace)- Stay and come to me, I'm here to make peace.

Don't forget to go out and purchase "Growing Pains" next Tuesday, December 18th. The Queen is back!

CRUSHIN': "GROWN MAN"




Dear Idris,

My name is fabgirl and I'm an Aries. My love for you is like peanut butter and jelly...it's authentic and it will never go out of style. I never could grasp the idea of drinking someones bath water until I first laid eyes on you. If I could describe you in two words it would be "GROWN MAN." From the "Wire" to "This Christmas" I have admired you. When I see you, I hear Lu-fa (Luther) ..."If this world were mine, I would place it at your feet." Back in the day, all I could offer you was some red kool-aid, but times have changed I have a cookbook out and we can discuss politics and music over turkey bacon and sweet potato biscuits anytime you want. So until we meet ...(and we will meet) Stay sexy...



xoxoxo, FabGirl
