Singer Fantasia Snatched By Bella Body Shaper and Night Workouts

If you have been keeping track of the lovely Fantasia, you may have been wondering, “How is she getting in shape like that?!” Well, she assures it is by no magic pill, but sweat, hard work and a nifty little shaper by Bella Body. Fantasia talks about her new fitness regimen stating,

“Late night workouts! I felt pretty today in my new dress, but realized I’d lost more weight since I had purchased it, in my sides and lower back area. That motivated me to keep pushing!

So here I am at 10 p.m. at night doing more resistance sets and cardio. My Shaper has me drenched in my waist area at the end of a solid training session! Bella body [is] much needed for when I do my lat pull downs; keeps tension on your core. It helps! I’m wearing the all Black today.”

As you can see it is all about dedication! Regardless, of the time of day if you really want to see changes you must be consistent and get it in. Moreover, if you would like to try out the Bella Body Shaper at discounted price, use Fantasia’s code, BodyandSoul at the checkout.

Arianne SuggsUpdated on July 18, 2017July 18, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Blac Chyna Wearing Shane Justin Collection Dripping Diamonds Set. Spotted out in Hollywood, California at the Ace of Diamonds.

You Asked: I don’t care what anyone say surgery or not Blac Chyna is killing the game! Like for real Rob can eat his heart out! I love me some Chy and her clothes, the blinged up one is what I need in my closet. What is it called? Is it a dress that is now in two or like crop top and skirt? Thank you hope you answer!

Ask and Tell: Blac Chyna Rocks Shane Justin Collection Dripping Diamonds Set

The Verdict: We got an answer for you love! We thought Black Chyna looked great in her shimmery little number too. Chyna’s look is actually two pieces. It is a design from the Shane Justin Collection. Nevertheless, this isn’t the first time Blac Chyna has slayed a set by Shane. Earlier in the year Chyna killed it in the label’s “2K” set.

However, in regards to her most recent look, you can find it online by surfing over to DTBVintage.com. Designer Shane Justin calls this luxurious set “Dripping Diamonds” and it is not hard to see why. This ensemble literally makes the wearer look like they are wearing “a girl’s bestfriend” all over their body.

If you want to get your hands on the Dripping Diamonds two piece set we suggest you act fast. It has already been revealed that there is a very limited supply. Plus, once a celebrity rocks a certain style that look always flies off racks like hot cakes. So then, get yours while you can!

Brandon Maxwell Fall-Winter 2017 Campaign Starring Joan, Maria and Lameka!

Arianne Suggs July 18, 2017July 18, 2017Leave a Comment

Every wonder what the life of a high-end designer is like? Now you can get a sneak peek along with a preview of some chic fall fashion! The Brandon Maxwell Fall-Winter 2017 Campaign dives into the creative process of bringing a collection to the masses. Moreover, Brandon Maxwell is using an amazing girl gang of models in order to showcase his fab garments. Check out Joan Smalls, Maria Borges, Lameka Fox along with Charlee Fraser, Andreea Diaconu and Romee Strijd in the new photo/video campaign!

Brandon Maxwell Fall-Winter 2017 Campaign Starring Joan, Maria and Lameka

In fashion visuals are everything. For his latest campaign Maxwell utlizes both videos and photography to highlight his designs. Regarding details as well as the inspiration behind the campaign, Brandon Maxwell says,

“Introducing the first in a series of six videos for our Fall-Winter 2017 Campaign, starring Joan Smalls. I’ve never set out to do a traditional campaign. In many ways these projects begin less as a vehicle to sell the clothing and more as a therapeutic exercise. To help me gain a deeper understanding of the industry within I work. Maintain some sense of self and to stay steady on the path in search for something I know to be true.

Each season’s campaigns are meant to show my world through my eyes. In this instance it’s the castings, the fittings, process, the way I see it. A world where the women are cast as much for their brains, personality, and dedication as they are for their beauty. Our Fall-Winter 2017 Campaign features six incredible women that I have had the pleasure to get to know and work with on many projects over the years.

These are the women that bring our clothes to life. I think it’s important to hear their stories. To understand that they are more than just what they seem on the runway, and in a way, so are the clothes. They are garments that are meant to be lived in, and that have a purpose.

In all the clothes there is a space left for the woman. The power, the confidence, the unwavering sense of self. In their company, I am somehow able to find strength within myself at the time that I need it the most.”

Beauty Insider: Blinc Cosmetics Reveals How to Get Perfect Eyeliner Line

Arianne Suggs July 18, 2017July 18, 2017Leave a Comment

Are your eyeliner skills “shaky” at best? Is a stick figure your idea of an artwork masterpiece? It’s okay, most of us do not emerge from the womb knowing how to wield beauty tools like nobody’s business. The good thing is that even if you are not “born with it;” you can enhance your makeup application skills with the right tips. Case in point, today’s Beauty Insider: Blinc Cosmetics Reveals How to Get Perfect Eyeliner Line!

Beauty Insider: Blinc Cosmetics Reveals How to Get Perfect Eyeliner Line

We always love receiving tips and tricks straight from the pros themselves. Blinc Cosmetics kindly spilled the deets on how a gal can get that bomb eyeliner line. They state,

“To get the perfect eyeliner line, look down and pull your lid to the side. It doesn’t matter if you start from the outside in or the other way around. The key is drawing your line a little at a time.

If you try to line your eye in one fell swoop, it will likely be uneven. To avoid that, drag your liner across your lid slowly and in short spurts.

For an everyday look that is effortless but elegant; we suggest only lining your eyelids with a dark color, and using a lighter nude or white on the inner corners. This will make your eyes appear brighter and more awake. 8 colors are available on blincinc.com!”

Thank you Blinc Cosmetics! We look forward to more awesome makeup tips. Be sure to check out Blinc online for awesome products.
