We had the opportunity to chat with the talented beauty & style guru MonsiieurAlex . In a community dominated by the often ( sometimes overzealous) female it’s refreshing to see a unique, informative and tasteful point of view from a gentlemen. His makeup tutorial’s display the use of quality makeup while still withholding the natural essence and masculine vigor. This goes to show such topics should never be taboo and gender specific. MonsiieurAlex’s helpful tips and reviews can be useful towards everyone. Read our interview with MonsiieurAlex below: Q: At what age did you discover your passion for beauty, style and fashion?

Happy Never After
The power of the series lies in contrast. Saint Hoax uses polished, recognizable imagery and overlays it with bruises, swelling, and expressions of exhaustion or fear. The result is deeply uncomfortable, but that discomfort is central to the work’s purpose.

Sassy Dismembered Barbie Jewelry by Margaux Lange
Each piece is carefully constructed, with doll hands, legs, or torsos arranged in deliberate, often symmetrical compositions. The craftsmanship is precise, allowing the jewelry to feel intentional rather than gimmicky.

Every Brand Mentioned in Sex And City
From Chanel to Clorox. A video titled Brand in the city took the time to find every brand ever mentioned in the series, and compiled it into a nine minute video. Maybe Brands and the City should have been the original title. Only a sexy super-fan would have taken the time to create this,but oh and aren’t we all super-fans. No judgment passed. Product placement never sounded so sassy. Enjoy
