#Idol Style & Fashion Haul for April 11th & 18th

I think all of you readers are beginning to catch on that I #LOVE to customize; it's the only way to get exactly what I want as well as give each #IDOL their signature look. I took an H&M jacket and added all the black to Joshua's jacket. It toned down the orange that gave it a deeper, richer red tone. Little touches of bling go a long way for every man, and I placed a stud on Joshua's pocket square pocket for a little pick-me-up. I wanted to switch up Joshua's look for his "Then" song to show that he can do more than just a blazer look. With a beautiful fit, he looked fabulous in his leather vest and black jeans.
(Left, Now) To sing Fantasia's "I Believe," I styled Joshua ("Sweet cutie," as @JLo called him) in Paul Smith socks and shirt topped with an H&M jacket with Kizmit customizations. He also wore Zara pants, Aldo shoes, a watch by Christian Tse, and his own rings. (Right, Then) To sing Sam Cooke's "A Change Is Gonna Come," Joshua wore a Zara top and pants. We shed a jacket for this performance and went with a Noah Kingery vest! He also wore Aldo shoes, socks by Paul Smith, and a London Manori bracelet.

You don't need to spend a ton of cash to look smart and stylish like Joshua. You can put together a great look with pops of color and a pair of nice fitted pants. I love the whole retro style for Joshua. He's so bold, and if any one could pull off the pink it was him! Joshua's other signature style is his funky socks; it's a fun hidden secret that you can get a glimpse of when he performs!
(Left) I styled Joshua in an Express button-up top very similar to this, Moods of Norway jacket, and Mezlan shoes with Kizmit customizations (bling!) for his performance of Bruno Mars' quick song "Runaway." Jewelry included a Swarovski necklace and personal ring. (Right) For his trio performance with Hollie and Jessica, he wore Zara button-up top and pants, Calvin Klein vest, and custom shoes. Jewelry included a Swarovski necklace and personal ring.

A VERY IMPORTANT UPDATE & NOTICE - REVISED!
UPDATE!
I should have the website back up and running fully by mid-May or June - just in time for the Idol tour! I am also shooting for a new layout and a new tour section for the website (and the rest of the updates that I missed)! Thank you for the support. I am doing much better!
Hello, just a quick notice.
I will NOT be updating the website as much as I usually do. I am going through a lot of issues - dealing with my health, emotional issues, and just life in general. I need some time to focus on me and getting myself together mentally, physically, and most important, spiritually.
I really appreciate your support. This isn't a permanent goodbye, just a hiatus.
I will still be supporting Joshua, and I will be on Twitter. I am sorry I had to do this, but I have to do what I have to do for me.
Got any questions or anything, e-mail me at my personal e-mail account: asouthernwriter@yahoo.com
THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!!!!

Louisiana Makes Voting Push for Joshua!!! #VoteForJoshua #TeamJosh
Source: NOLA.com
Joshua Ledet inexplicably landed in the bottom three vote-getters last week on “American Idol.” The talented Louisiana native survived the scare, but his fate rests largely in the hands of the show’s teeny-bopper fan base, an ominous circumstance.
So the Southwest Louisiana Convention & Visitors Bureau has issued a how-to-vote press release in hopes of keeping him in the contest.

American Idol Update (April 18-19)
Well, last week was a SUPER crazy week for American Idol.
First of all, Joshua celebrated his 20th birthday on Monday, April 9. Was a very bittersweet week for him though. He got a surprise birthday message from Fantasia Barrino, and then he got to meet Jennifer Hudson!
But on the other hand, he was in the bottom 3 along with Elise (and JESSICA! - yeah, you probably have heard about THAT already!). He ended up being safe, and continuing in the competition. With the judges using the SAVE for Jessica.
So... yeah Jewels,
LET'S VOTE OUR BUTTS OFF THIS WEEK FOR JOSHUA
THIS WEEK on IDOL, the theme hasn't been confirmed yet (rumored to be an Elton John theme), but the contestants will be singing 2 songs each next week (a total of 14 songs this week!). [confirmed by Nigel Lythgoe].
Thursday's results show will feature Idol Season 8's Kris Allen, who will be performing his new single "The Vision of Love" from his 2nd album "Thank You Camellia". LMFAO will also perform their hit single, "Sorry For Party Rocking".
This is going to be one heck of a week for Idol, so get the votes for Joshua in, and good luck to all of the contestants!

Fashion & Style - Get The Look (Top 8 - 80's Week)
Here's the latest addition to Soyon An's American Idol - Get The Look portion of her website. Below is what Joshua wore (more detailed than the previous post). Click the link to see what the rest of the Idol contestants were wearing and how you can get the look too!
Fashion & Style - April 04
From American Idol stylist, Soyon An. This is what Joshua wore during his 2 performances on last week’s American Idol, 80's week. To see what the other contestants wore, look here.
Another stylish way to wear a pocket square is with a flower! Joshua has such a slick, cool style now that I wanted to bring out another element that he can call his own. It's nice to layer a white flower with a white pocket square, so the flower doesn't look like a napkin. Tip: For those of you trying this at home, make sure you get a vile of water to keep the flower fresh all day!
(Left) Joshua wore, for his powerhouse performance of Simply Red's "If You Don't Know Me By Now," a Hugo Boss top, Theory pants, and an Authentic Icon jacket (available at Kohl's stores this month). I topped off the look with Franceschetti shoes again this week along with a Swarovski bracelet.
(Right) For the duet Joshua wore a Zara top and Dolce Vita suit with Franceschetti shoes. I wrapped up the look with Swarovski bracelet and cufflinks.
