What a weekend! Our heads are still spinning from MTV Tr3s Fashionista, an upcoming style special that taped last Friday for a premiere on August 16th at 2PM EST. NYC was the place to be el viernes pasado — you couldn’t move an inch without bumping into a hot model (ANTM winner Jaslene chowing down on not only tacos, but mcdonalds AND espaguetis), hot Latin artist (Pitbull checking out VJ Karli’s pedicure job) or host (LBoogs and Natalie Martinez shaking sus caderas in a cha-cha face-off between takes).

Among racks of ropa both couture and casual we ran into R&B singer Lloyd, whose performance of “Girls Around the World” featuring Pitbull was a highlight of the event. Before we could squeeze in any preguntas, we caught Mr. 305 schooling Lloyd on rolling his “rs.” Adorned in Dolce & Gabanna ATL native Lloyd told us that the key to having style is really about one thing:

Style is just all in the swagger. It’s not about the name brands, it’s not about the expense of the clothing, it’s just about the way you wear it. My own style consists of just configuring my outfit in wacky ways.

Sounds good to us. Lloyd also shared that he has a fetish for cute feet and doesn’t wear a shirt much in the summer — exposing his 30+ tattoos (no complaints here). At present the single crooner is promoting his album Lessons on Love and searching all around the world for the right gal.

MTV Tr3s Fashionista showed off the flyest fashion trends, from urban to sophisticated chic, on the flyest models, including featured catwalkers Jaslene Gonzalez and Danity Kane diva Aubrey O’ Day. Male and female models strutted their stuff to live performances by Nina Sky, Kinky, RKM & Ken Y, Lloyd and Pitbull. MC-ing the event were Sucker Free Latino’s L.Boogs and Natalie Martinez, of Fashion House and JT music video stardom.

Until its August 16th premiere, peep some pics from the event to satiate your style appetite.

It’s been un minuto since we heard a peep from the Nuyorican R&B darlings Nina Sky, but we’re sure seeing a lot of them lately. Last night las gemelas made an appearance at the DJ Cassidy birthday party in New York sporting an upgraded look. Apparently, Nicole and Natalie have outgrown the whole “looking alike” thing and are trying to set themselves apart. What do you think of their new dos? [Lossip]

Last night L. Boogs celebrated his cumpleaños and took Sucker Free Latino, and some of his favorite amigos (particularly los de La Isla) along for the party.

B-Day scenesters spotted at the venue, New York’s Spotlight Live, were Kat DeLuna, Notch, The DEY, Oro Solido, and Maino (“Hi Hater”). The club was packed with mamacitas y artistas from wall to wall. Boogs made the rounds running into celeb buddies like Malverde, who was big pimpin’ the bottle service in the VIP. The party popped off with The DEY, but the night’s main performance came from Notch, who riled up the crowd for a good twenty minutes. Da CrowdMover himself hit the stage, accompanied by an entourage of scantily clad women dressed like Vicky Secret Angels (let’s see if that makes it on air). To top off la noche exitosa, fellow dominicana Kat DeLuna sang a sultry rendition of Happy Birthday, finishing with a kiss (on the cheek). A very sexy Kat, dressed in all white, closed down the house with a dutty whine while performing “Whine Up” and “Run the Show.”

Other celeb drive-bys included Nina Sky -all grown up with a new look, Carlos Santos from Mi TRL, DJ Enuff and Camilo from the Heavy Hitters Crew and Swizz Beats chillin in the cut. Watch how it went down when the episode airs on Sucker Free Latino July 9th. Más fotos after the jump…

Nina Sky is looking a bit funky in their recent visit to Rap-Up Magazine. Dónde han estado estas chicas? We haven’t heard much from the ladies recently but at least it’s good to see Nina Sky alive and well. No disrespect ladies but what’s up with the outfits? Vamos chicas, ya pasaron los 80’s so stick with the more styling get ups please! [Lossip]
