Ring Me Up!


Not only do I love that they've mastered Lady Gaga's "Telephone"... but I'm really into the very fact that they all look amazing. The best one is sitting at the piano.

Janelle Monae


There's not much that I can say about the iconoclastic artist Janelle Monae that hasn't already been said. I do miss the days when people would tell their own stories. Thanks to Monae, those days aren't too far away. One thing goes without having to say....that this photograph of her is beyond breathtaking.

Why Don't You Love Me?


Looks like Beyonce is back again with a new all american concept for her lastet single "Why Don't You Love Me". What do you think"?

I Will Always Be...



I've encountered a gift from the love of my life, Esparanza Spalding.
Is this your music?

No Homework Done!



It might be my obsession with Super Mario, or it could just be the fact that musician, Zack Kim is just terrifically talented. Whatever it might me... i just know that I need to get this "soundtrack" onto my iPod ASAP!

Man Up!





Did we discuss these already? I don't think we did. As of late, we've getting quite a few inquires about the footwear we used for Priscilla Renea's shoot... and why wouldn't we... these zebra printed platforms by TopShop are INSANE! So if you plan on finding them anytime soon.... I suggest you head out and get them!

Because I'm a Lady!

Sometimes you may feel that singer and style icon, Lady Gaga can be a bit strenuous to the eye... but you must admit that she takes a magnificent photograph. Lady G has teamed up with photographer Hedi Slimane to prep for her album "The Fame Monster" that released today. I can only say at this point that I may need the paramedics to revive me once the album is released.

Don't Shatter My Heart!



As you may have read last week, I had the pleasure of working hand in hand with Marian Ingram on set with Priscella Renea for her shoot with Fanzine Magazine. After furthering my research on Capitol's new artist, I happened to discover that the chick is really dope for a 20 year old.

The stove is hot!

I've Got a Crush On You: La Roux


Normally when it comes to musicians... it's their image that catches my attention before their placement in the industry does. Most times, their craft does follow their style, which is why I'm so excited about sharing my discovery of British duo La Roux. Thanks to up and coming vocalist and friend, Giselle, I was exposed to the androgynous styling of Elly Jackson.... who is the lead singer of the band. I'm now super elated to see that more artists are moving against the grain and allowing their "silence" speak volumes!

Sting Like a Bee....



This is and interesting experience... no matter how many times I may have seen Beyonce on stage, it's always been such a dramatic performance. To see her in action during a dress rehearsal is quite humbling since I'm so accustomed to seeing her cover the stage in it's entirety. Even though I grew up listening Destiny's Child and called myself "a fan", I must say that this is a fairly new side that I'm being exposed to.

Back From 1901



I'm completely obsessed with Phoenix's new single 1901. I almost feel like I was born to live in their "era". Moving moments are the best to experience.

House on the Rock



Even though we've been seeing Michael Jackson tributes everywhere. Runway Wonderland has yet to truly pay our respects. I found this exhilarating footage of MJ being as bad as he was on stage and being that I'm huge music head... I'm really into the vibe of his background vocalists. It reminds me of what Kanye's background crew. Dope

Who Is Corinne Stevie?


Once again, the time has come for Runway Wonderland to promote the incredible linings of the underground world. Last month I was exposed to Miami based artist, Corinne Stevie who's music stands firm against a commercial crowd. My first  experience with Stevie was vibin' to a hook that touched on time travel, which just happened to be on my favorite topics to explore. Outside of her ability to capture me with music, Stevie impressed my concentration by her lyric-matching image. Seizing the opportunity, I managed to cook up an exclusive interview with the artist herself.

Who is Corinne Stevie?
Corinne Stevie is a person who is really in tuned with herself... creatively.. spiritually and all. I'm the good,the bad and everything in between.

Your music bleeds its own individual persona, what drives you to be such an artist?
The world around me, and of course the friends and family who have encouraged me from the beginning. I started creating art in the beginning because i enjoyed it and it made me happy, but then I noticed it made others happy as well. I feed off of good energy, competitive energy, lazy energy just a lil bit of it all. I've learned to embrace my whole self.

Who are your 3 major musical influences?
Right now i would have to say ,Santigold, weezy, and this Aussie producer named TIMESHARE. He's incredible, cause he really pushes me up to the next level with his production.

What about fashion? How important is it to you and your image?
Fashion is very important, but not really... but it all depends on my mood. Sometimes I wanna catch your attention and somedays I like to go unnoticeable. 

Who are your style icons?
Grace Jones, Miss Jack Davey, and Art school boys

What are you rockin' this season?
A lot of vintage thrift store vintageclothing. As far as footwear I got a pair of yellow doc martins late last year and I got some really simple shoes to paint. But i'm definitely mixing up styles, genres and eras all the time.

Do you remember your first experience with music?
Yes I was in the fourth grade and my music teacher wanted our class to write a rap about education for a contest. So I wrote my lil rhyme and I didn't really think nothing of it. But then the next thing I know i won first place. I had to stand up in front the whole school and read my rhymes it was crazy because I was really nervous but I did it anyway and got my prize. For some reason I never forgot the last line of the rap it went something like "Get your education and your degree". Education has has always been an important thing in my family thats why I'm completing school before I really get into my career.

What do you want peple to recognize you for?
I want to be recognized for bringing the passion back into music and art. I also wanna be recognized for just pushin the limits and doin my own unique thing. I wanna be recognized as one of those people who really know how to express themselves in an interesting way.

Describe an ideal day for Corinne Stevie?
An ideal day for Corinne Stevie is a super busy one. Student by day and Free lance Illustrator, Muralist, and Musician by night.

What makes you happier; people knowing you for your talent or the territory that comes with it?
The sunlight makes me extremely happy, but I love it when people can appreciate what I do.I don't care for the territory stuff.

It's Just Sugar!


Anyone who knows me well, will tell you that though I'm standing over 6 feet tall and growing facial hair, I'm still the biggest 6 year old on the inside.
Particularly when it comes to sweets, I tend to hold no control over what happens next (to me or the people in the vicinity). Seeing this video by
The Mary Jane Girls as a kid most likely has a a lot to do with my uncontrollable cravings. However looking back at the video now as an "adult",
someone definitely should have major cavities biting into all those sweets. Even though I'm not one to speak as I either have a bag of Skittles or
Swedish Fish attached to my palms on a daily basis.... this chick had about five tons of candy in a span of 3 minutes. That just can't be healthy! (lol)

They Call Me Gaga




She's strange in the coolest way possible. I find it quite interesting that she fantasized about women during sex with her ex-boyfriend. 
Ladies and gentlemen... we had a hit single on the bahalf on a chick who was bluffin' with her muffin. Who knew?
Her performances are getting a little disturbing, but I just assumed that she just might be tired of performing this particular song.
