If there was anything I was ultimately looking forward to, it was Roberto Cavalli’s collection for H&M. Following in the footsteps of Viktor & Rolf, Madonna, Stella McCartney and my personal favorite Karl Lagerfeld. The collection launched last night and features some of Cavalli’s signature styles and accents like the gold and animal prints on affordable pieces. Check out the video below, those people weren’t playing!

Following in the footsteps of Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez has finally officially announced her pregnancy. As if we all didn’t know already, come on J.Lo! She told the crowd at her last stop on her tour in Miami. Immediately after she announced it the crowd went into a frenzy and husband and tour partner Marc Anthony bent over and started kissing her belly.

Aww how sweet. No word yet on what shes having. Congrats to the happy couple!

In my top five list of most anticipated albums of the year Alicia Key’s November release ‘As I Am’ definitely secured its spot near the top. What I expected I did not get. The album is a solid collection of pure R&B tracks fused with oldie melodies and strong instrumental vibes. It channels some of the greats. However, her vocals seemed strained throughout the project.Aside from strained vocals, the album is, well quite boring. Most of the tracks are enjoyable at most including her lead single ‘No One’ and my personal favorite ‘Lesson Learned’ which features the vocals of John Mayer. I am a bit disappointed in the album as a whole though. I find myself skipping and selecting through tracks, something you shouldn’t have to do if the album is solid.

However, despite its boring melodies, strained vocals and blatent attempts to capture ones attention the album has its positive notes and is one of the best R&B albums of the year. I am convinced the album will see its success though. This is definitely one for the grown and sexy.

Other notable tracks include ‘Wreckless Love’, and her follow-up single, ‘Like You’ll Never See Me Again’.
