From LaQuan Smith and Melody Ehsani---Designer LaQuan Smith took to his Facebook to give us a sneak peek of what to expect at this year's Rip the Runway. Victoria's Secret model Selita Ebanks is the latest celebrity to wear his hot pink tennis dress from his Spring 2011 collection. It makes me wonder if this dress was the official "uniform" for the hosts as Nicki Minaj wore a modified version at last year's Rip the Runway. She paired his LQS creation with patent nude pumps and jewelry from Melody Ehsani:

Rip the Runway 2010: Tai Beauchamp Talks Body by Victoria, Alesha Renee for CoverGirl
Let's talk about makeup and bras. Honestly, the only other reason why I tuned in was for the beauty tips. I wasn't expecting to see Tai Beauchamp (@taibeau) talk about Body by Victoria but I'm glad that she did. It was one of the highlights of the show. She reminds us why Body of Victoria should be a staple in our wardrobe:
"The perfect outfit needs an even better base and the wireless by Victoria is just that - the perfect fit. It's lightweight, it's supportive, there's no wires, there's no tugging, and no embarrassing lines. Smooth, sleek and sexy but better yet, doesn't even feel like it's there. From the catwalk to your closet, Body by Victoria has got you covered."
Then of course, Alesha Renee talked about the products from the CoverGirl Beauty Bar, like the LashBlast Length Mascara, Smoky Shadow Blast Shadow Stick in Onyx Smoke, Shine Blast Lipgloss, and Queen Collection Compact Foundation.
Speaking of CoverGirl, they have a new LashBlast mascara titled LashBlast Fusion. Instead of delivering just length (like CoverGirl LashBlast Length) or just volume (like CoverGirl LashBlast), it delivers both. CoverGirl Global Creative Design Director Pat McGrath previewed LashBlast Fusion backstage at the Anna Sui show at F/W 2010 NYFW.
LashBlast Fusion isn't scheduled to hit the stores until April but of course, CoverGirl is having an exclusive online presale. Take advantage of free shipping with any of the e-tailers listed on the CoverGirl FB page from March 12th to April 5th.

Nicki Notice: Nicki Minaj's Black Giuseppe Zanotti Studded Booties at Rip the Runway
As I recently learned, these are the Giuseppe Zanotti Song Lyric Booties that Nicki Minaj wore tonight. I found an e-boutique in Boston - Giuseppe Zanotti Design. I didn't see them on the site - they just had the heels, ballet flats and the clutch but not the boots. You'll probably have to contact the boutique about specific details.
Check out some more choices from Giuseppe Zanotti:
