How did Nike achieve more air? Their new shoe contains a cushioning system which provides the wearer with more bounce as well as flexibility. Moreover, there are absolutely no additional structural elements (no foam layer) which results in nothing but air being found underfoot. Cool right?

Well, making a an awesome product is one thing. However, choosing the right face and personage to market such product is another. Nike shared why chose model Winnie Harlow to bring the Vapormax to the masses. Nike states,

“When you refuse to be held down by convention, even the ground starts feeling a lot like Air. Whether she’s killing the runway or challenging perceptions of beauty in her industry, Winnie Harlow defies standards to set her own. Measure up to yourself, never others. Nike Air Vapor Max Asphalt is here.”

We are always happy to see more models of color have the opportunity shine bright in a brand’s ad campaign. Winnie Harlow is just as excited about this particular accomplishment. Harlow explains,

“I can’t believe this… I have a Nike campaign. One of my ultimate goals in life and I really didn’t think I’d accomplish it so soon. But by the grace of God, I am really apart of the Nike family and I’m so honored.

I’ve seen my face on billboards and in Times Square and it’s always such a special feeling. But my heart jumped when I passed Nike and saw my hard work plastered and blown up for everyone to see on the inside and outside of the stores. Thank you guys for continuing to allow me to inspire. Thank you to my team for believing in me and thank Nike for welcoming me to the Fam.”

Congratulations Winnie on the ad campaign it is so well-deserved! Want to cop a pair of Nike’s new Air Vapor Max Asphalt shoe? It is available now! A pair will cost you around $260 plus tax.

BOLD HAIR! Obsessed with India Westbrooks Blue Haircolor

Arianne May 8, 2017May 8, 2017Leave a Comment

India Westbrook’s new two tone blue haircolor is HAWT! Westbrook is never shy when it comes to a bottle of hair dye. The social darling has been a blonde with more fun to a sassy fire engine redhead. However, her current haircut is what dye dreams are made of!

We love how the darker blue transitions into an equally fun light blue. Plus, did you get a load of her divine cut and finger waves combo? The entire look is killer and makes us want to grab a pair of scissors and bottle of blue dye.

India’s awesome blue haircolor was created by celebrity stylist, Christol Williams. Christol is a master color expert as well as cutting specialist. If you can’t get an appointment keep on the lookout for her in-depth Hair Color Symposiums. The next one is in June.

BOLD HAIR! Obsessed with India Westbrooks Blue Haircolor

Thinking about dying your strands with a super vibrant hair color? There are a few things to keep in mind that no one might tell you. These next details should keep down any shock factor.

Cold Showers– It is recommended to wash your color treated strands with cold water to prevent fading. We’re getting chills just thinking about it.
Fadeeeee– You may think of Teyana Taylor dancing in a music video, but we mean your cool Instagram worthy haircolor. Coming from the salon you’ll look amazing but the fading will begin after about a week and when you go to cleanse/condition. Color-safe products will help some but the original vibrancy will still be lost to a slightly less awesome shade.
Process Princess– Getting the color you want depends on your natural hair shade. The darker it is the more bleaching and effort involved. Depending on how light and bright you are trying to go it may take multiple rounds of processing.
Split Ends– Chemicals in hair dye can make your hair weaker. This is why deep conditioning is important and some choose to do light “dusting” from time to time. Dusting is giving your hair a very tiny trim just to keep split ends at bay.
Just Say No– Color makes strands more delicate so you need to treat them like a baby. Avoid using heat styling products as much as possible.
That’s So Pastel– Hair colorists the world over agree that pastels are the hardest to achieve. Therefore, know the risks before you dye your hair. If it seems like too much try using a wig or extensions to get the look you desire. Dead, dried out colorized strands is not cute on anyone.

Runway Fashion: Chanel Cruise 2018 “Modernity of Antiquity” Show

ArianneUpdated on May 6, 2017May 5, 2017Leave a Comment

Let out your inner couture goddess dolls! The Chanel Cruise 2018 runway show oozed of luxurious flair rich in Grecian culture. Think exquisite draping, gladiator sandals, gold accents as well as wreathed, embellished headbands. Mr. Lagerfeld certainly captured the essence of Greece and brought it to Paris!

Runway Fashion: Chanel Cruise 2018 “Modernity of Antiquity” Show

“I see Greece as the origin of beauty and culture.” Those were the words of legendary Chanel designer, Karl Lagerfeld in regards to the inspiration behind his Chanel Cruise 2018 runway show. Lagerfeld constructed a breathtaking show that delivered down to the most minuit detail. Even the catwalk’s decor of larger than life pillars and stone work caused one and all in attendance to feel transported from Paris directly into the past. As a result, the entire collection is an ode to the grace and beauty of ancient Greece. Every piece as well as color palette tone was beautiful and fit the show’s overall theme.

Furthermore, what is a runway show without great hair? The Chanel Cruise 2018 collection’s hair looks nicely complimented the show’s couture. Tresses were pulled back into an effortless half up, half down style with the top portion being fashioned into a braid. Hair accessories additionally played a major role in making the hairstyle even more ethereal and extravagant. The results were so elegant and current they would be the perfect chic hairstyle for this season as well!

Chanel Cruise 2018

Several garments and pieces caught our eye but one accessory in particular made us swoon instantly. A gorgeously decorated black and gold hand bag with an owl made its glorious appearance during the show and although small, made quite a statement. In Greek mythology the owl represents Athena, known as being the goddess of wisdom. Thus making the bag quite fitting. Furthermore, being slight Clash of the Titans nerds we could not help but be reminded of all the films as well as their entertaining characters.

Nevertheless, the bag, the hair, the makeup and of course stunning designs made a deep impression and etched a moment into the fashion industry that shall never be forgotten. Chanel put on one amazing show that has us even more stylishly excited for 2018!

The Mermaid Frappuccino – Because Unicorns are so Last Week

Arianne May 5, 2017May 5, 2017Leave a Comment

How big is this secret menu?! Starbucks is back at it again with a new flavored frap that would make Ariel jealous. The new drink comes complete with sweet flavors and of course vibrant, multi-coloring. Are you daring enough to give the Mermaid Frappuccino a try?

The Mermaid Frappuccino – Because Unicorns Frappuccinos are so Last Week

It seems just like yesterday that every caffeine fanatic was making their way to Starbucks in order to get a little unicorn in their life. Now Mermaid fraps are sliding into the menu like a DM.

Nevertheless, the number one question is… what the heck is in it? Well, we didn’t have to dig too hard. A Starbucks barista spilled the deets stating,

“Step aside Unicorn Frappuccino, meet the Mermaid Frappuccino. Bay City Starbucks sold out of the unicorn frappuccino on the first day, but we made the moment right by suggesting other partner created frappuccinos!

The mermaid frappuccino is a Pokemon go frappuccino without the raspberry syrup, drizzled with a toasted coconut matcha sauce!”

Not going to lie, that description slightly made our mouths water. Especially, the drizzle! Fortunately, the same superstar barista shared the info on that too. She continued,

“To make the drizzle, mix 8 pumps white mocha, 3 cbspumps toasted coconut and 3 heaping scoops of matcha in a pitcher until smooth. Pour into gravity bottle. Make the Pokemon go frappuccino minus raspberry syrup. Drizzle the cup and top with whipped cream and matcha powder. Enjoy!”

The Mermaid Frappuccino

In the end, the result is a purple and green combo that makes us think of The Little Mermaid’s tail and seashells top. So far the verdict on taste has been very positive. Unlike the Unicorn frap that came with mixed reviews and some encouraging others not to waste their money. Therefore, if you are looking to try something new, fun and yummy then you need to order yourself a mermaid.

We DON’T Care! Amber Rose’s Dark Brown Hair with Highlights is Winning!

Arianne May 4, 2017May 4, 2017Leave a Comment

Well look-y here, Amber Rose just joined the long hair don’t care crew. Moreover, some may not be feeling Amber Rose’s new do, but to us she looks fab! Amber Rose’s Dark Brown Hair with Highlights are effortlessly sexy and fit her persona with a capital T.

Amber Rose’s Dark Brown Hair with Highlights is Winning

Rose debuted her new hair this week at the exclusive Nylon Mag party. She killed her look from head-to-toe with flowing waist-length highlighted hair and a sassy rouge dress by Angel Brinks. The gown goes by the name “Flammable.” Fitting because Rose’s look was definitely fire!

Nevertheless, we love darker tresses on Amber because it compliments her lovely skin tone. Also, the highlights are noticeable, but still blend-able so that the overall look is soft, neat yet seductively spicy! On a scale of 10 this hair look on Amber is a solid 20.

Dark Brown Hair with Highlights Haircare Tips

The key to healthy looking hair that has been highlighted is to restore any lost hydration. Aim to deep condition strands often. Apply rich conditioning hair mask after shampooing and leave it on for at least 15 minutes to half an hour. The benefits will be clearly seen in no time flat. You will enjoy strands that are the polar opposite of “porus” with tons of bounce and shine.

Choose the right shampoo and conditioner. Now that your hair has been chemically altered you can’t use your regular old shampoo or conditioner anymore. Instead for products specially formulated for color treated strands. Such products will be PH balanced in order to be gentle and less harsh on color treated hair.

Coloring can leave hair dry due to the chemicals so then protect ends at all cost. Highlighted hair often sprouts ends that tend to fray; therefore, do really tiny trims just to avoid having split ends.

Avoid heat styling as much as possible, but if it cannot be avoided always use a thermal protector.

The label boasts in the fact that their maternity wear is far from anything that can be considered “Frumpy.”

The ASOS Preggers Tshirt retails for only $28! Quite a steal in every way possible. Upon making the discovery that Beyonce rocked their shirt, ASOS made the following statement,

“Yes that’s right, the Queen B herself in our Preggers T-shirt! From Bootylicious to Bumpalicious! Sorry it’s currently sold out, but keep your eyes peeled!”

Sorry dolls if you had hoped to make this cool tee your very own, but as you can see ASOS left the door open. We have a strong feeling thanks to the Bey appearance ASOS will be restocking real soon.
