I'm personally an '80's baby and thus the reason I can probably take a splash of color! One huge trend in my hometown NYC and all over Celeb World right now, is the fitted, skinny jean. But not just the normal run of the mill blue jeans, colorful animated pieces that say, This is me...Look at Me...LOL. Anyways, Here are some celebs who do it for more, and below is where you can get it for less! Rihana was spotted in May, not dating Chris Brown, as they exited a hotel together.

Celtics complete surreal turnaround with dismantling of Lakers

To fully appreciate the 17th championship that the Boston Celtics clinched with Tuesday's 131-92 rout of the L.A. Lakers, you have to remember where we were at this time one year ago. On June 18, 2007, the Celtics had recently completed a 24-58 season, the worst record in the Eastern Conference and the second-worst in the league.

Tonight in the Staples Center it was do or die for the Lakers, down 3-1 to the Boston Celtics. Game 5 would be a test of Los Angeles' mental fortitude and desire to win after one of the greatest comebacks (or collapses, whichever you prefer) in Finals history in Game 4; Los Angeles had a 24-point lead in the first half, even taking a 18-point lead into the half before faltering in the 2nd half and allowing the Celtics to put their backs against the wall. Game 5 was a must-win for the Lakers, and...
