What's better than a Louis Vuitton monogram bag? A Louis Vuitton bag with your own monogram on it. That's the thinking behind the house's Mon Monogram service. The company has been allowing customers to personalize luggage and smaller items like wallets for a while, but you can now put your initials on its signature Speedy 30 or Keepall Bandoulière 55 bags. And because the canvas is given a special coating after your logo has been painted on, there's no danger of ever losing your good name.

The Look: Curly Hair

Ever the trendsetter, Madonna helped usher in something of a curl revival last fall, showing up to a screening of her film Filth and Wisdom with a center part and long, wavy curls. Imitations from Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears followed shortly thereafter. But cries of style-stealing aside, you could say that change is just in the air. "It might sound silly, but I think this election has proved that we are in a different state of mind," says hairstylist Ouidad, a.k.a. the Queen of Curls. "If you look at Hollywood, the big eighties days are back. People are enjoying texture again—almost being promiscuous with their hair and just letting it be sexy."

MILAN, February 27, 2009
By Nicole Phelps
In 1954, Maria Callas recorded a memorable version of Bellini's Norma at the Cinema Metropol, the theater where today Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana stage their fashion shows. With the legendary soprano for inspiration, their D&G collection was unapologetically operatic. Bustier dresses with lampshade miniskirts came in brocade, jewel-studded velvet, or tapestry-print chiffon, while a bustier top was paired with high-waisted jeans encrusted with big, colorful crystals. And because every diva needs a cape (a strong theme here in Milan), there was a version in ocelot-print ponyskin and another in gray fur with a collar that looked like chinchilla. The colors—ocher, burgundy, cadet blue, and black—were as lush and rich as the collection's furniture fabrics, but point d'esprit and tulle tutus in pastels worn with T-shirts printed with Callas' image lightened the mix.

As a foil to the sweetness, the designers threw in some tailcoats with trompe l'oeil frogging and gaiter pants. The models marched down the red-carpeted runway in sky-high platforms with curtain swags in their hair. You could picture some of these clothes finding their way onto the narrow shoulders of young starlets on the premiere circuit. Dolce and Gabbana's message was loud and clear: "The show must go on."

Posh Spice's Mug Sells More Mags Than Anyone!

The numbers are in!

Americans are way more likely to buy magazines with Victoria Beckham, Angelina Jolie and Lauren Conrad gracing the cover than Carrie Underwood or even Nicole Kidman! 

Posh topped the list as being Elle's best selling issue in 2008, moving a whopping 413,000 copies of the mag! Poor Carrie Underwood's cover only sold 253,611 copies! 

Saint Angelina's Vanity Fair cover sold over half a million copies, of course! But poor Hilary Swank only managed to move 27,000 issues! 

The most surprising of the bunch? 

The Hills actress reality TV star Lauren Conrad's cover of Shape sold 447,969 copies!! 

No doubt a good chunk of those mags were bought by L.C. herself!

saMAN Already Replaced Lindsanity???

Was Lindsanity LOLhan in fact truth-telling when she posted on her Twitter last Friday that "being cheated on does wonders to you"????? 

Spies spotted saMAN at the now-infamous Charlotte Ronson party at the Chateau Marmont last week "clearly with another woman — somewhat of a Lindsay look-alike, but with very dark hair." 

We smell trouble!

The source added, "They sure looked very cozy, if you know what I mean." 

A friend of Ronson's also reported someone named "Cindy" matching the description of the Lohan look-alike leaving saMAN's pad on Sunday. 

Could the source who snitched be LOLhan, perhaps????

We wouldn't put it past her!!!

Angelina Jolie is Poncho Pretty

Angelina Jolie keeps warm in a fur-trimmed poncho with matching Russian hat, on the set of her new movie Salt in New York City’s Staten Island on Tuesday (April 7).

Wonder if she rode the Staten Island ferry into work… Naaaaahhhhhh!

Angelina, 33, has been busy shooting the espionage thriller, in which she plays Evelyn A. Salt, a rogue CIA agent who tries to clear her name after being accused of being a Russian sleeper spy.
Salt is due out in theaters July 2010.

Speidi Doing What They Do Best

Well, we already know that Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are total famewhores, so it's no surprise that when caught out eating by the paparazzi yesterday, the wannabes used the opportunity to promote Heidi's "music".

Which is fine.

The only thing that really grosses us out is their face sucking.

Get a room!

Fat Guy In A Little Coat

Gossip Girl producers are fuming over Ed Westwick's hard-pAArtying ways!

A solid diet of booze and possibly other pAArty favors have been named the main culprits in Westwick's ever expanding waistline!!

Coke bloat, y'all! 

"Ed has been gaining a lot of weight — not just around the waist, but through the whole body," a GG snitch tells In Touch Weekly. 

Producers are appalled at the idea of heartthrob Chuck Bass morphing into a rotund Chuck Lard-Ass! 

"First, the costume department had to buy him new, bigger pants. Then, his shirts and jackets got way too snug. The costumers even requested that producers talk to Ed — they don’t want Chuck to be fat!" 

Ouch!

Halle Berry Stuck in Harper’s Bazaar Bubble

Halle Berry in the best looks to sparkle in this season for the May 2009 issue of Harper’s Bazaar. The 42-year-old actress talks sex, motherhood, and her (much-younger) man. Check out the beautiful bubbly photo spread and snippets from the great interview:

Tell me how you keep your mojo. I have a 33-year-old man. That’ll keep your mojo mojo-in’. 

Do you ever go on a food binge? I like Doritos. I’m usually watching The Biggest Loser eating Doritos.

You, Obama, and [your daughter] Nahla are biracial. What does that mean to you? Nahla will grow up in a completely different America. Obama is someone who’s more like her than not, who shares her history. Hopefully she’ll grow up in a world where it’ll be easier than I had it. I had a rough time. I was accused of stuffing the ballot box for my high school prom-queen election because they couldn’t believe the only black girl in the school won.

Leighton Meester Singing… Again!

the gossip girl star is at it again!

Leighton Meester wants to be a singer, and - in a page out of the Heidi Montag school of business - she has "leaked" a new song on the Internets.

The tune is called Birthday, and we actually like it. But, it's hard to tell if she sings well or had a little "help" in the studio.

What do U think???

R-Patz is Gross!!!!

Twilight star Robert Pattinson is featured in the new issue of Dossier Journal.

And…

1) He's pictured smoking - yet again. That's so not cool!

2) He couldn't be bothered to shower (greasy hair), shave (stubble) or get a manicure (hello dirty fingernails)!

Gross. Gross. Gross.

Shinjuku incident

The Shinjuku Incident

A simple Chinese immigrant wages a perilous war against one of the most powerful criminal organizations on the planet in this sprawling action drama directed by Derek Yee (One Night in Mongkok) and starring Jackie Chan, Daniel Wu, and Masaya Kato. In Japan, foreign migrants are shunned by mainstream society. Taunted by the Yakuza, they live in constant fear of being discovered and repatriated. Into this perilous world ventures Steelhead (Chan), a humble tractor repairman who has traveled to Tokyo in search of his missing girlfriend Xiu Xiu (Jinglei Xu), who vanished into thin air shortly after arriving in the city. It doesn't take Steelhead long to learn just what kind of hardships Chinese immigrants in Japan endure at the hands of underworld gangsters and foreign crime syndicates, and upon discovering that Xiu Xiu has adapted a Japanese identity and married up and coming Yakuza chief Eguichi (Masaya Kato), the two men form an uneasy alliance. Over time, Steelhead earns the respect of his fellow Chinese immigrants by establishing a place for them to gather. But the dark side still beckons to Steelhead, because after helping Eguichi dispense with a powerful rival, he is granted full control of Shinjuku's most popular nightspots. Resistant to the allure of the criminal lifestyle, Steelhead discovers a new love and opens a tractor repair business just outside the city. When Equichi begins using Steelhead's former compatriots as pawns to front the Yakuza's drug trade, the vengeful immigrant returns to the city determined to exact justice, even if it means destroying the future of the woman he once loved.

The Closing of the Gates of Grace

Tonight I watched as the Holy Spirit gave me a vision. 

I saw two massive gate doors – both on the right and the left of the earth. They were made out of gold with precious gems embedded in them. They were positioned over the earth in the spirit realm. On the other side of the gates was heaven. On our side of the gates was the earth suspended in space. Then I saw a mighty angel on each side of the two gates. They were standing as sentries guarding the doorway or portal from the two realms. They each had a large sword in their hands that was on fire and it seemed to spin around perpetually in every direction and it shot these flames out all around them. I was amazed and awed at their glory and size. They seemed as large as the earth below them. The gates were even larger in size than they were! Both the angels and the gates were glowing as bright as the sun, it seemed. On the heavenly side – light was streaming like a river flowing toward the earth. As I looked into the glorious light, I saw the Lord sitting on His throne in great majesty with many crowns on His head. He had an iron/bronze-looking scepter in his right hand and an old-fashioned-looking harvesting sickle in the other. 

Suddenly, I heard His voice. It sounded like a roaring ocean of water and wind as He spoke. I have never heard such a sound before. He said, 

“The time has come to close the gates of grace upon the earth. The nations have rejected Me and My Father long enough. Lift the coverings of protection off of those nations that have chosen Babylon over my Kingdom. I will no longer protect them from reaping what they have sown.” 

Then the two angels on each side of the golden gate leaves began to move slowly to shut the giant doorway/portal. I noticed that this was a slow process, because I saw the seasons change on earth and some years pass before it was fully closed. As it was closing, I was able to look closer at the river of light that was pouring upon the earth. In it was every blessing and healing grace, forgiveness, unconditional agape love, and the constant flow of angels carrying all these wonderful blessings to the earth. 
Right before the gates shut, I heard the Voice of the Lord say, 

“Come up here, my Bride, and escape the wrath that is about to be poured out upon the earth.” 

I heard a nearly deafeningly loud blast of heavenly trumpets from both those angels at the same time, and suddenly, I saw multitudes of souls – millions and millions of them – ascending out of the earth very fast in a flash of light. The river of light coming through the gates met them in the upper atmosphere of the earth and then reversed itself and all the souls and the river of light went back up out of the earth and into the closing gates back into heaven. 

Then I saw the gates finish shutting completely – at a much faster rate now after the souls from earth had finished going into heaven. Then, it became so dark that I could no longer see the stars even. There was no more river of light flowing down upon the earth. The earth was covered in what looked like white neon hexagon shapes in a web above the earth (please see my teaching “Visions from the Dallas Revival 1985” on my websight) It rapidly became opaque where I could no longer see the earth underneath. I just saw a brownish looking color –like a stagnant pond - where the oceans and land could be seen only a few moments before. Then, nearly just as fast, the whole earth seemed to be swallowed up in the thickest black darkness I had ever seen. It was like a black hole in the universe. It made the rest of the universe look light in comparison, if I could describe it that way. 

I felt so sick and hopeless as I saw this. Then, just like I had heard back in the vision in 1985, I began hearing the screams of millions upon millions of souls that I knew were trapped in that darkness below in the earth. The Holy Spirit then spoke to me and said, 

“This is now coming upon the whole earth as a snare and a trap. This is what the nations have chosen. As they have done, so shall it be done to them. As they have cursed, so shall they be cursed. As they have condemned, so shall they be condemned. The time of My wrath shall surely come. The nations shall drink of the wine of the wrath of My cup that I have mixed for them. Woe! Woe! Woe to the earth for the hour of her judgment has surely come! Babylon shall now fall and be consumed by the fire of my wrath.” 

Then I realized that these were still events to come in the future. But I also somehow knew that it was imminent. Once again, I saw the doors of the gates of grace still remained partially open. I knew that this was our present time now. I was so relieved to see the river of light flowing into the earth again. But, the doors were closing fast! They weren’t fully opened as they were even a few years ago. I knew that we didn’t have much more time. The Lord spoke again so loudly and powerfully: 

“Warn them! Time is very short! You must preach the gospel and work while it is still daylight. The night comes very soon, and no man can then harvest in the time of grace ever again. The doors of grace are beginning to close. REPENT! REPENT! REPENT O Earth before the river of light stops flowing! Then you will face Me, not as Merciful Savior, but as the Judge of all the earth. Who will hear and heed the final call of the silver trumpet’s clarion of Grace, Grace! My Spirit will not strive with sinful man forever. Come to Me now while there is still a little time left. I am coming soon for My overcoming Bride. Keep your lamps burning…Watch and Pray…I AM AT THE DOORS OF GRACE! They are closing quickly….Come into My ark of safety…come into the Bridal chamber and the doors will SHUT…I AM COMING FOR YOU, MY BELOVED!!!” 

I pray that we all take heed to God’s prophetic warning and be ready when he appears for His glorious, waiting Bride. 

Love in our Messiah..
