New York Fashion Week Celebrity Trend: The Bob Effect

Arianne Suggs September 18, 2015September 18, 2015Leave a Comment

While all eyes have been on the amazing fashions coming down numerous runways we have still kept our peepers peeled for other trends as well. We took note of the fabulous hair that has been making its way to the front row. Celebrities play just as an important part as the models themselves when it comes to making a runway show successful. The more high profile persons you see camping out on the front row the hotter the designer must be and sought after.

Celebrities have been coming out to play in droves for New York Fashion Week making for a buffet of serious style. Therefore, what hairstyle trend have we seen to be a common denominator amongst the rich and fabulous? Leading ladies and music superstars have been indulging in the bob effect. These cuts are chic, very sassy and scream, “I am woman hear me roar!” Here are a few ladies we spotted:

Get the Look: Beyonce’s Laid Back Denim

Arianne Suggs September 17, 2015September 17, 2015Leave a Comment

When you are Beyonce you could literally throw on a paper sac and make a statement. Nevertheless, Beyonce still chooses to flex her style power whether on a red carpet, at a high profile gala or just relaxing on vacation. Overalls can be a cute denim choice but at times can be hard to pull off; especially, if you are past the tetherball and blacktop era.

We love how Queen Bey chose to make her overall look quite sassy. Bey left one strap undone and showed curves by pairing her overalls with a form-fitting tank top. Moveover, the overalls themselves added flair thanks to their distressed detailing. A few rips and shreds is all you need to take an ordinary, boring pair of jeans to another level.

Want Beyonce’s laid back denim ensemble? Keep scrolling to see how to pull this simplistic yet stylish look together.

We love Lakur’s collection of nail polishes for a number of reasons. First of all, they are eco-friendly so that means it is a natural product that will not be harmful due to it not including unnecessary chemicals. Now we know that a lot of ladies tend to shy away from natural nail shades because some have proven to have a weaker performance. Nevertheless, things have changed and formulas have improved making eco-friendly polishes just as great as their more toxic predecessors.

Moreover, Lakur’s nail polishes are infused with natural oils that will also aid in strengthening your nails. So then, you get great color as well as a stronger set of nails.

Style Ambassador: Fashion Mood

Arianne Suggs September 16, 2015September 16, 2015Leave a Comment

We love us some Carly! Our style ambassador has been busy writing up more of her stylish tips in order to share with all of you. This week’s fashion insight causes us all to pause and think what truly is or should be the motivation behind what we pull from our wardrobes. For Carly it is all about that day’s attitude, she writes:

“I believe how you dress goes with the mood of the day. Therefore, make your everyday life a happy day through personal style. It is important to connect with your wardrobe and the best way to accomplish this is by wearing what you feel looks good on you. If you feel confident when wearing lipstick, a skirt, dress or jeans then go for it! As long as you feel good about yourself you are on the right style road.”

Fabulous tip Carly and we are loving your streetstyle photo as well. Who says that you can’t wear white AFTER Labor Day? Here in the states that used to be a cardinal fashion sin, but my today’s standard is just a lifeless fashion myth. Chic up your look like Carly by wearing white pants with a tailored jacket.

Fashionable Mention: Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars Andy Warhol Collection

Arianne Suggs September 16, 2015September 16, 2015Leave a Comment

This collection made its debut earlier in the year and we were curious as to how it would be received. Personally, we thought the collection was in a word… cool. Being lovers of art and fashion it seemed to be a match made in style heaven. Converse coming together with the genius that was Andy Warhol.

Who just was Andy Warhol you ask? Warhol was an American artist who revolutionized what we now call pop art. Andy enjoyed seeing the artistic marriage between pop as well as celebrity culture and 1960’s advertisement.

One shoe from the Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars Andy Warhol collection that we still get a kick out of and that is still retailing strong is the Campbell’s Soup rendition. Maybe its because it gives us flashbacks to childhood or that it is simply epic to see a famous painting come to fashion life. It also makes us think of an old dance video…

Sophie Theallet S/S 2016 – NYFW

Collection: Sophie Theallet S/S 2016 – NYFW

Designer: Sophie Theallet

Models Who Walked the Show: Veronica Webb, Lula Kenfe, Mari Agory, Leomie Anderson and Sessilee Lopez

On The Runway: It was a “dream of Africa,” as Theallet references her collection. There were textures of burlap, lace and a heck of a lot of snakeskin. This collection is literally my favorite right now from the S/S16 season. Theallet doesn’t miss a beat. From head to toe, from stitching to the hem line is just perfection. The color palette is divine and the styling is superb. Forever in love with Theallet.
