Fun Facts About The Color Black:

A black cat crossing your path is
considered bad luck in many cultures, except in England, where spotting a black
cat is considered good luck.

The color black is associated with
sophistication and power... tuxedos, limousines, judge's robes, and priest's
attire are all typically black.

The color black is so widely regarded as
sophisticated in fashion that the term "the new black" is often used to describe
and give merit to a color trend.

In the west, black is the color of
mourning but the custom of wearing unadorned black clothing for mourning dates
back at least to the Roman Empire, when the Toga pulla made of dark-colored wool
was worn during periods of mourning.

One old wives' tale claims that if
a woman is buried wearing the color black, she'll come back to haunt the family.

Originally this was simply going to be a post about the uber sexy Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano Comte Noir edition, but as I researched it I realized it was beyond being just a car. This ride is a state of mind... A lifestyle. And certain accoutrements are mandatory. Let me tell you what you need...


I'll start by introducing you to the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano Comte Noir:

German tuning house Graf Weckerle took the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano and gave it a suspension upgrade, boosted its horsepower from 620 to 835 and...wait for it...put titanium and aluminum wheels in a fleur-de-lis pattern on it to create the "Comte Noir" edition. Yeah...I said fleur-de-lis wheels. This machine is beyond sexy...

Like I said...You can't stop at the car. You'll also need:

The Burberry Studded Leather Knight Bag:

Nicholas Kirkwood Lace Panel Ankle Boot:

The Noir Cat Woman Claw Ring (on every finger!!) In Gunmetal:

Amalia Mattaor "Dancing Bag":

Balmain Leather Pants:

Black Diamond Hoop Earrings:

Chantecaille Le Stylo Liquid Eyeliner Pen in Black:

Tom Ford "Jennifer" Sunglasses (classic...):

Jennifer Behr Spiked Turban Headband:

And of course...

The American Express Black Card:

Like I said... It's a lifestyle. As Hov said... "Black cards, blacks cars, all black everything..."

“Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them and you have their shoes.”
-Jack Handey

There are certain people it is taboo to criticize or make fun of... Jesus, the handicapped (can we even use that term anymore...I can't remember), burn victims, cancer patients, Oprah, ugly babies ...you get the gist. Well my list of of "How dare you speak ill of ___" includes SJP, yeah that's right...she's above judgement in my eyes. Well...normally...

"High heels were invented by a woman who had been kissed on the forehead."
-Christopher Morley

It has been a very good couple of years as far as shoe design goes...and it just keeps getting better. In the past few years shoe designers have taken shoe design to new heights, they have made it a bona fide artform. Kirkwood, Louboutin, Dior, Chanel,Camilla Skovgaard, the list is endless. I could go on and on... However I will limit it to 2 collections that I am overly impressed with today...

Casadei, the Italian luxury footwear brand has named it's Fall 09 collection "The Red Carpet Collection" and it's so very appropriate. If any shoe was born for the red carpet, it is any one of the shoes in this decadent and sexy collection. The colors, fabric, studded heels, pleats, buckles, and feminine details of these shoes are simply classically stunning.

Suggested Lip Color:
Stila Silk Shimmer Gloss in Kitten



Now for the 2nd collection...

The 2nd collection that has left Glamour Whore speechless (Thank God I can still type;) is actually a collaboration. 3.1 Philip Lim and Christian Louboutin teamed up for The Spring/Summer 2010 3.1 Philip Lim collection. The result? Omg...omg...omg...omg...OMFG. Get what I'm trying to say? See for yourself...

Ok, so I know I said I was only going to write about 2 collections...I lied. I'm sorry, it's a terrible thing...lying. But....I'm a shoe junkie. My name is Glamour Whore and I'm a shoe junkie. I need a 12 step program. Actually, no I don't I like being addicted....

Anyway, collection # 3 that has me dreaming about spikey stilettos is...

Kirkwood for Rodarte Spring/Summer 2010. (1 of my favorite shoe designers AND one of my favorite couture designers...together...*sigh*)


Suggested Lipstick:
MAC Black Knight...of course.
