Expect to hear a lot more Michael Jackson music in the coming years.

Sony has signed the late King of Pop’s estate to a recording contract that guarantees $200M and could be worth up to $250M, TMZ reports.

The deal stipulates that there will be seven projects over the next 10 years that includes never before released Jackson music. Read More »

With the world premiere of This is It and recent trips to costume shops, I’ve got Michael Jackson on the brain.  And when it comes to the King of Pop’s style, one thing stands out: that single, sparkly glove.  While donning a sequined glove is a very literal way to pay tribute to MJ (not to mention impractical – won’t your other hand get cold?), sequins are EVERYWHERE this year, and there are much more creative ways to show your love for the moonwalk master.

Or, you know, just for fun, fabulous style.

Thanks to those innovative designers lining 5th avenue in NY, sequins have taken on a totally new look in 2009 and  have become suitable for both day and night.  A cute, sequined cardigan could add sparkle to your morning lecture, or add a dose or personality when you’re heading to work.  On the other hand, a pair of made-for-a-rockstar sequined leggings are the perfect party pants.  Or, if you are more interested in adding a subtle dose of shine to your everyday outfit, you could opt for sequin shoes or the perfect sparkly accessory.  No matter how you want to wear them, there is a sequined item (or many, many fun shiny things) out there for you!

Well, not right now, but soon. Like, every Thursday.

1. Honeycrisp Apples may replace Pumpkin Spice as my favorite thing about fall. They are that. freaking. good. So good that they almost make me want to go to University of Minnesota (where they were created) and cheer them on instead of the Badgers. OK, maybe not but I will give them props for this fabu fruit.

These apples are seasonal so you MUST get your hands on them while you can. I know, I know, I’m freaking out over an APPLE but trust me – one bite of this crispy deliciousness and you will feel the same. They are the perfect afternoon snack or late night sweet-tooth-craving crusher. I can’t believe I am typing this, but these bad boys call my name more than those chocolate chip cookies lurking in my fridge. Crazy? Yes. Delcious? You bet. Just try one with some peanut butter or almond butter for a protein packed snack of amazingness. I dare you.  Read More »
