GOLDIE IS DEAD: Kennis Music's Keke Ogungbe Sympathises With Goldie's Family


I'm still in great shock, this is unbelievable. I got a call from my friend in Nigeria, saying that Goldie passed way shorty after she returned from US where she attended Grammys . I doubted him at first, made some more calls and browse the net, to be sure it wasn't one of those jokes. unfortunately, it wasn't.
Born Susan Filani,Goldie as she was fondly called changed her name to Susan Harvey on arrival from England.According to her profile,Goldie is from Ekiti State in South West Nigeria.She is in her 30s. She was signed to Kennies Music before she passed away.
 Oh my God, is this how people die? May her soul rest in perfect peace. below is the short state from Goldie's management.
 "On behalf of Kennis Music, I'm sad to officially confirm the shocking and untimely passage of Nigeria's pop star, Goldie Harvey.
With a deep sense of loss, we announce the shocking death of our darling music star, Goldie Harvey. Goldie, 31, died on Thursday after she complained of a severe headache at her Park View residence shortly after her arrival from the United States where she went to witness the Grammy Award.
She was rushed to her official hospital, Reddington, Victoria Island, Lagos, where doctors pronounced her dead on arrival.
We consider this period a gloomy moment for us and the entire Nigerian music industry in view of the circumstance Goldie passed away, the abundance of talent she has exhibited in her but eventful music career and the various opportunities her trip to the United States of America would have availed her.
She is survived by her father, step- mother, brothers and sisters.
We deeply sympathise with her family and fans all over the world and very grateful to all and sundry, especially, the vibrant Nigerian media for their concern and prompt reportage.
We shall keep everybody informed as events unfold as we are still devastated by the sudden loss." Meanwhile, the remains of Goldie, who hails from Ekiti State has been deposited in the mortuary of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja, Lagos. Goldie represented Nigeria at the Big Brother Star Game in 2012.
Her latest effort, she described as three nawti singles from her forthcoming African Invasion album are “Skibo”. "Miliki" and " Got To Have It," are presently enjoying heavy rotations on radio and TV stations across the continent.
Burial arrangements will be announced by the family.
May her soul rest in peace.

Rob Pruitt for Jimmy Choo Resort 2013 Collection


A contemporary fantasy emerged last October when Jimmy Choo unveiled the first capsule collection by artist Rob Pruitt, whose illustration and fantasy creates a brand new era of fashion.  The display of spectacular colors in dégradé (seen here on the Choo Anouk pump) is just the beginning of a cruisewear phenomenon.  Pruitt's collection includes ombre leopard prints, booties of sparkly zebra stripe and special handbags muraled with panda bears.  “The panda is an international symbol that reminds us both to tread lightly and to appreciate the adorable”, explained the master of graphic illustration, displaying obvious affection for the endangered animals – so much that he created the dynamic Angel/Devil panda clutches, featuring more than 11,000 Swarovski crystals in black, white and bordered with color; did we mention each is applied by hand?  The astonishing, minaudière clutch bags are dressed with a leather lining and limited to 14 pieces each worldwide.
 
Rob Pruitt modeled the collection's shoe soles after his recently established abstract paintings.  Gaining popularity in the 1980's, the artist gratefully welcomed the idea of hot, bright graphics on cruise footwear, handbags and daytime accessories from t-strap jelly sandals, zip-around wallets to a leopard print luggage tag.  A truly memorable capsule, Rob Pruitt cruisewear is a walk through a museum of astonishing art, invention and of course, the iconic luxury that is Jimmy Choo.  
 

Kim Kardashian's Maternity Fashion Trends




It is no secret that the Kardashian sisters' name is synonymous with upfront designer trends and glitzy, shimmering style. Now that Kim has begun flaunting the first of what is sure to be hundreds of maternity looks, expectant mothers everywhere can be inspired by the fashionista's black leather leggings and head-turning apparel splashed with a party's worth of sequins. All glitz aside, Kim is often seen these days in sportswear that includes leggings and oversize button-downs a favorite on the Spring 2013 runways. Slightly sheer, flowing blouses such slip on easily over a bandeau top or solid color camisole. Add chunky enamel bangles or gemstone jewelry for a glamorized touch to this basic daytime ensemble. Mother-to-be Kardashian is also fond of embellished blazers and trendy motorcycle jackets, which she wears over various leggings (from shiny leather to plain black spandex) and pairs with spike heels or soft black sneakers as of late!  Kim keeps her outerwear from interfering with her growing belly by wearing it open, adding a lengthy pashmina or thick knit scarf that falls past her waistline. Ruffly dresses she has worn in the past weeks show off the legs of this day-to-night diva, all while helping to camouflage the midriff area.  A-line dresses are best for wearing short without the “squeeze” of tight-waisted pencil skirts. Tight, slinky minidresses have finally been traded for Kim's newest trend appeal: Blazing, vivid color. A flowing, royal blue gown and fiery red dress were bright yet opaque, making her appear slimmer. One of her recent, all-black looks includes a great wraparound trench that is a season essential for any figure.
