This slightly risque Lola Chandelier echoes the design of a lingerie corset, with Swarovski crystal detailing and a lace-up front. I think the pendant lamp, which is available in black or stainless steel, could work in the right room, but I don't adore it. What do you think?

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony were in Miami last night to cheer on the Dolphins as they beat the New York Jets. Marc opened the game by singing the National Anthem, but Jennifer's currently the one releasing new music. Her single "Fresh Out of the Oven" came out last week under her alter ego, Lola, though you guys aren't exactly loving it.

I'm always seeing straight and slim cuts, but myrinda is rocking a nuevo silhouette. Brave girl! I love the bagginess of her trousers and how it's balanced out by a super girlie ruffle blouse.

In my mind, there are two Marc Jacobses: the slightly nerdy guy who appeared in Sonic Youth videos, and the slick, slim cool-guy megadesigner he is now. And maybe it's just me, but I kinda miss the dorky Marc who loved the more obviously offbeat. Fortunately, there's a bit of both Marcs in his latest fragrance, Lola ($65-85).

Hi Casa,
I love, love, love the wallpaper in the picture on DearSugar in this recent Sunday Confessional post. Do you know what kind it is or where I can get it? I have to know!

Although I've got pets on the brain almost nonstop, sometimes new ideas strike me when chatting with pals. Take yesterday, when my friend (who moved to southwest London with her rescued Cocker Spaniel) complained to me that Lola loves the Thames but constantly tries to edge closer to get the birdies. Not only is she worried her dog will jump in, but it's hard to walk because it seems like Lola forgot all her training and now has a mind of her own.

I like any chance to add a theme to my outfit, for example on St Patrick's day I like to wear green, and on Valentine's Day I like my ensemble to show some love.
A subtle way to acknowledge the occasion is with funky heart jewellery so I've rounded up some cute pieces currently available.
There are a few funky, bright coloured pieces like the Lola Rose cluster bracelet (pictured) which make a cute daytime accessory.

A mention of Chris Rock's name doesn't exactly conjure up thoughts of heartfelt documentaries, but that may change soon. Premiering at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival this week is a project close to his heart. Inspired by his daughter Lola, Good Hair exposes his discoveries while trying to answer the question: "Daddy, how come I don’t have good hair?” If you've never heard it yourself, labels of "good hair" and "bad hair" are often provided by strangers, stylists, and even loved ones in the Black community based on the texture, thickness, and the styling ease of one's hair.

Are the fairy tales we grew up with (not to mention our parents and grandparents) too scary and politically incorrect for our children? According to a nationwide survey in Great Britain, The Baby Website found that one in four moms forgo classics such as Sleeping Beauty and Little Red Riding Hood over The Very Hungry Caterpillar or The Gruffalo.
Traditional fairy tales were first popularized in the early 1800s with the publishing of The Brothers Grimm's Fairy Tales in 1812 and Hans Christian Andersen's Complete Fairy Tales and Stories in 1835.

Nevermind that "all you got" is pretty awful. It's the effort that counts, right? I have no idea why Lola Perazzo, performing the "Thriller" dance on the awesome '80s talent show "Stairway to Stardom," didn't make it big.
