Mariah arrives in Italy - 11/11/09

Ciao Italia!!
Mariah arrived in Milano today to promote her new album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. She kept the same outfit she wore last night for the appearance on David Letterman, which isn't typical of Mariah. She switched the brown tights for a burgundy leather coat, that she has worn before in 2003 during a visit to France. Take a look.

I really preferred this outfit with the tights. What do you guys think?

Mariah tapes David Letterman - 11/10/09

Before taking off to Italy on promo tour, Mariah stopped by the CBS studios to tape an appearance on the David Letterman Show. It's always a fun show when Mariah stops by so I can't wait for this one!
For her appearance, Mariah went all brown in a 3/4 sleeve V-neck knit dress with brown tights and brown version of Gucci's Lockhart Ankel Buckel Boots. (Yes, it is ankel buckel! lol)
The Kiki di Montaparnasse wraps the look with a nice accentuating effect.
V-Necks really work for Mariah!

Mariah on the set of H.A.T.E.U. Video - 11/05/09, 11/06/09

Mariah seems to be pretty busy these days shooting the video for H.A.T.E.U., the upcoming single from her new album The Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. She was seeing on the Malibu beach on Thursday wearing 2 one-piece bikinis, one black, one white.

She wore a deep plunge one-piece bikini with Christian Louboutin heels. I believe this is a black version of the one presented in the Marc Bouwer Spring 2010 collection.
Later on, she was spotted wearing a white Herve' Leger Spring 2009 bikini.

She really likes this type of strap, sort of like halter. I look at this bikini and it reminds me of the dresses she wore during the "The Adventures of Mimi Tour".

Today, she was spotted in New York wearing Herve' Leger Bateau-Neck Bandage Dress with tights and Gucci Lockhart Buckel Ankel Boots.

I am so loving those boots... They look extremely comfortable and warm.


She then changed into leather jacket and that works: the jacket, the dress, the tights, the boots... it totally works here creating a very sophisticated look.

I can't wait to see the video!

Mariah at the AFI Fest "Precious" Screening - 11/02/09

Remember the Rainbow era when Mariah wore ripped off jeans and crochet tops? Or the Charmbracelet era when she had those suede hoodies that she wore for Promo Tour? Or the bomber jackets from E=MC2?
So I think right now Mariah is going through an all-black phase with this new album.

Here we see her wearing this beautiful Zac Posen Resort 2008 mermaid dress.
I really like this dress as the patchwork on it favors and accentuates the waist. I'm glad she went for a longer version of the dress. The accessories were minimum which drew attention to her hair and make up, both of which were flawless!

Mariah "rocks" Fashion Rocks - 10/24/09


First of all, did anybody else think that Mariah would sing for Versace based on her friendship with Donatella or that was just me?

Second of all, if you sing for a designer's runway show, wouldn't it seem obvious that the singer would wear her/his clothes?

I can be wrong, but this dress seems to me very much like Dolce & Gabbana signature corset dress.
I honestly think the dress is beautiful and I thought it looked very cool when she walked across the stage and it seemed like the she was floating because of the dress skirt. I just wish she would have gone up a size.

I don't want to go too much into the details of the performance but when I heard the intro of Fantasy I went CRAZY!!! Touch My Body & Obsessed LIVE... O-M-G!
I wish she would have changed her dress into something lighter for Touch My Body and Obsessed, like the number below from Calvin Klein Fall 2009.

Overall, I think she looked great. Kudos for trying the wavy hair. Rio de Janeiro is very humid and she usually goes with a curlier do. I think it worked and she looked awesome!

Mariah arrives in Brazil - 10/22/09

I had waited 6 years for this day and when it finally happened, I wasn't there! :( I didn't even have time to send my letter for the fanbook,which I regret completely. Thank you so much for bringing your shine to my country Mariah!

Back to work, Mariah arrived in Rio wearing nothing that resembles extravaganza. She looked very comfortable yet urban chic in striped top, black leggings with lace open toe boots that added a whole different edge to this look. Remember that she had just flown in from JAPAN!!! I think she looks great!
One interesting fact is that she wore that same blouse back in December 2006 while shopping at the Dior store in Rodeo Drive.

LOVE YOU MIMI! THANKS ONCE AGAIN! BRAZIL LOVES YOU!

Mariah arrives in Japan - 10/15/09

I think it's cool when an International artist goes to another country and tries to make him or herself appealing to that culture. I guess the word wouldn't even be appealing, but fitting, or respectful, I guess.

Mariah arrived in Japan to promote her new album wearing Herve' Leger bright red dress with black coat and Gucci platform heels. That is a very nice red on her.
The advantage of wearing Herve' Leger is that you can always show how great you look, by looking sexy, revealing your curves and look classy. Mariah shows just enough skin here to look elegant yet sexy.
I like the wavy hair to the side and what I also am liking are those Tom Ford Raquel sunglasses!

Mariah signs MOAIA at Evan Records - 10/14/09

Mariah arriving at Evan Records in Korea for a CD signing session to promote her new album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel.
She arrived wearing all black ensemble with leather jacket. I do like her hair here, but what I really like is that pair of Giuseppe Zanotti heels!! O-M-G!

Mustn't it be wonderful to have a designer modify a pair of shoes exclusively for you? If that ever happened to me, I'd love me some Gucci sneakers... But Mariah is at that level that she can just snap her fingers and POOM! There you go...
I love these booties, but I guess I like her peep toe version better.

Mariah at Nick's Birthday Bash - 10/10/09

It's been a while since the last time we saw Mariah in Herve' Leger.

Well, she rocked this long sleeved number with front zipper for Nick's 29th Birthday Party at The Bank with Gucci platforms. I think she looked great and bandage dresses are known for really showing off a woman's figure. I'm not disappointed at Mariah at all. Her body looks amazing.

Of course, the hemline is higher than the version that went to stores.

I only wish she would have picked another color, even though I think this dress only came out in black.

Mariah at the NYFF - 10/03/09

Mariah attended the New York Film Festival earlier this month for the screening of Precious. She walked the red carpet dazzling in (what seems to be an) American Apparel U-neck mini dress. She enhanced "the rarity" by "stepping in her Jimmy Choos" and "yeah she got it all cute".

I think she looks absolutely great. The ensemble is sort of predictable, but it still works.I really like the fact that she didn't wear black tights and showed off her legs. Her hair looks amazing.
The only downfall for me: the bra showing... :(
