India Westbrooks Wears Digby Jackson Chemical Plant Overalls

Arianne Suggs January 20, 2017January 20, 2017Leave a Comment

Here’s a little bit of fashion truth: Overalls are basically cool from pre-school up to 2nd grade. Then they quickly lose their appeal. However, a new crop of awesome designers are taking this classic and giving it a fresh remixed modern spin. Our favorite pick of this sudden overall revival hails from a couture genius stationed in London town. Check out his unique vision… India Westbrooks Wears Digby Jackson Chemical Plant Overalls.

India Westbrooks Wears Digby Jackson Chemical Plant Overalls

Ugh… we just love edgy couture! The Digby Jackson Chemical Plant Overalls ooze effortless cool vibes. Miss India Westbrooks took one of her recent photo shoots to new levels by adorning herself with head-to-toe Digby Jackson fashions.

The petite beauty wore the stylish Chemical Plant Overalls/Dungarees with yeti shoes. Moreover, she mixed retro with revision by opting to forgo a shirt. Google the chick from Come On Eileen and you will see exactly what we mean. Furthermore, the overalls are so fashion forward that its unisex. Both girls and boys can kill it so we have to tip our hats off to Jackson for such a versatile design.

Nevertheless, India is in good celebrity company when it comes to wearing the DJ brand. Serayah, Fergie Ferg as well as Sofia Richie have all worn Digby Jackson digs. Its the cool kids brand and we are excited to witness the full on fashion domination in the future.

Hair Notes: If you are going to wear clothing that’s already “in your face” it is best to keep hair simple. Doing so has two fold benefits. One you will not overpower your outfit allowing the focus to remain on your statement pieces. Also, you will keep the look very clean instead of overworked.

High Ponytail Hairstyles: Blac Chyna ‘Raises’ The Bar

Arianne Suggs January 19, 2017January 19, 2017Leave a Comment

This season strands are going to new heights! Want to be on trend? Then learn to aim higher darling. Go for the hair gold by rocking high ponytail hairstyles. We spied Blac Chyna taking things up a bit and the result was absolutely stunning.

High Ponytail Hairstyles: Blac Chyna ‘Raises’ The Bar

Hair shouldn’t be a headache. High Ponytail Hairstyles are easy hair looks that can command attention effortlessly. Raise a hand if you remember Queen Bey‘s high ponytail Met Gala hairstyle. Her fierce tail turned heads even though in essence it was a simplistic and incomplex hairdo.

Blac Chyna’s ponytail was created using virgin hair from Kendras Boutique. The boutique sells not only extensions but also hair products and styling tools such as flat irons too. Nevertheless, Blac Chyna switched things up from her signature raven tone locks and opted for a fab platinum blonde shade. Moreover, Chyna added texture to her look by incorporating loose waves. Furthermore, the tail received an extra dose of chic by wrapping a few strands around all elastics so that they are hidden.

Beauty Notes: Blac Chyna’s makeup is a perfect look for spring. Makeup artist Jolisa Jackson aka Jo, created a look that incorporated delicious peachy as well as pink hues. The color peach is a subtle tone that denotes demureness, innocence and purity. Moreover, pink is romantic, feminine, playful and considered the tint of love due to being associated with red and white. Nevertheless, since most think of spring as being a time of renewal, vitality, pureness, hope and love such a beauty look is very fitting.

1966 Beauty Pick: Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Palette

Arianne Suggs January 19, 2017January 19, 2017Leave a Comment

If you have ever stood in the beauty aisle looking for the perfect lip shade and come up wanting, your world is about to be changed forever. Actually, all beauty prayers are about to be answered! No more hoping for the right color that not only looks bomb but works for our skin tones. Now we can actually just make it our darn selves. How’s that for makeup empowerment? Introducing our 1966 Beauty Pick the Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Palette.

1966 Beauty Pick: Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Palette

To get the full details on this amazing product we went straight to the source. The designer of the Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Palette had this to say:

“This lip palette is a labor love. Three full years, to create what I find to be an impossible task. A full coverage matte lipstick in a pan. It’s not an easy task as materials don’t behave the same way once poured, but I can finally say I achieved it.

I kept the color selection wearable to ensure that the palette is ready to go the minute you open it or if you don’t fell like mixing shades yourself. Additionally, I threw in primaries to provide artists endless possibilities. We have 46 custom colors created on video thus far.

[Moreover] I tried to choose wearable colors that resonate with the ABH consumer and are preferred often on set from what I’ve noticed. By offering variety with primaries already, it was important to not get lost in ‘concept.’ [Consequently] risk alienating the consumer that doesn’t want the anxiety of creating her or his own shades.”

Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Palette

So then, its nice to know that this palette is for everyone. The professional as well as non-professional. Also, if getting creative is not your bag or you simply just don’t have time this product will still work. Nevertheless, how does the Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Paletter enable such an “universal” appeal? Norvina answers:

“This is where the 13 non primary shades [come] in. Plenty of neutrals to choose from and some pops. The primary shades allow the consumer to adjust the deepness and tone of any of these shades. To make it just the way you like.

The attributes that make this palette valuable to professionals and consumers is the color selection and price. 13 ready to go matte lipsticks for $48 is not a bad look. [Moreover] the best part is that you have 36+ shades available to you that you can’t even see looking at the palette.”

Efficient, affordable, brilliant and completely customable! Never settle for not having the lip tones you truly desire. Furthermore, don’t wait, the Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Palette is available now online! Also, if you rather wait to get this awesome ABH product in stores it will be available at retailers such as Sephora in March.

Very refreshing. Nevertheless, what about the fashion world? Are they down with the greenery hue? Yes they are to the one thousandth power! Gucci helped usher in the greenery tint during their spring/summer collection. The tint was fresh and gave off a very modern and contemporary feel.

Latest Hair Trends: Balmain Spring 2017 Slick Wet Hairstyle

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

Having your spring wardrobe together is one thing, but ensuring your hair is just as on point is quite another. The 2017 spring designer runway shows hair looks were full of innovation as well as reincarnated classics. What is one of the latest hair trends for 2017? Think getting out of a pool while looking all sorts of fabulous. That is very much the vibe of the Balmain Spring 2017 Slick Wet Hairstyle.

Latest Hair Trends: Balmain Spring 2017 Slick Wet Hairstyle

Yes, slick hair can be chic and more importantly very alluring. C’mon don’t you want onlookers to be obsessed with you from head-to-toe? The Balmain Spring 2017 Slick Wet Hairstyle is sexy without looking like you are trying to hard. Moreover, it is universally pleasing because it can be created on various hair lengths. Besides the catwalk several celebrities have already given the wet hairstyle a spin. We immediately think of Teyana Taylor (long hair) at the Soul Train awards as well as actress Ruth Negga (short hair) when she attended the Golden Globes.

Nevertheless, this look is nothing new even though it has a very modern feel. Hairstylist Sam McKnight says that the look is actually inspired by the 80’s. Eighties photography by Helmut Newton and Peter Linbergh provided the inspiration for the swimming pool-esqe style.

How was the hairstyle created? If you are natural then most likely you already have all the items you need in your hair arsenal. Stylists used an almost mad hair scientist mixture of gels, hair oils, mousse and creams in order to make hair obey as well as create the “wet” look.

Balmain never disappoints in its fashions or in the hair department. Therefore, take a page out of Balmain’s stylish book and rock one of the latest hair trends!

Tupac Stance Socks…2017 Is Already Winning

Stance Socks continues to raise their bar when it comes to design. After the Rihanna collaboration and Star Wars collection we didn’t think things could get anymore epic. We are glad to say that we were fabulously wrong. Stance just leveled up and are about to majorly cash in.

Why socks with Tupac Shakur’s likeness? Stance answers, “In the 1990s’ [rapper] Tupac Shakur was one of the most dynamic and influential hip hop stars of our generation. [Tupac] Shakur will always be remembered for his gritty, yet poetic lyricsand his outspoken views on the system. With the support of photographer Mike Miller Stance Anthem presents 2pac for Anthem Legends.”

Bomb. So far not much press has emerged regarding the Tupac Stance Socks, however, SM is quickly changing that landscape. First images of the socks are spreading like wildfire across all platforms. Moreover, its a design that is quite unisex. We have seen both male and females have a high desire to claim these bad boys. Here are a few of the expressions we have seen in the past 24 hours:

“NEED NEED NEED!”

“Thug life.”

“Lol I never thought you guys [Stance] would cross that bridge… you have officially proven me wrong and now I will go buy a pair.”

“Sweet!!”

“I need your shoe size! Cuz you need these!”

“TAKE MA MONEY!!!”

“Them boas cold.”

“Another reason why we love stance socks.”

“2sock Shakur.”

“Gonna cop em.”

“You know I’m getting these ASAP!!! Lol.”

Tupac Stance Socks Cop Them

Many share the same sentiments as us. Also, that 2sock Shakur left us deceased and won the Internet. So let’s talk price ladies and gents. The Tupac Stance Socks retail for only $20! Get free shipping in the U.S. on orders over $25. Therefore, get you man and yourself a pair and enjoy the sweet reward of waving the shipping fee.

The socks come in two sizes so far, medium as well as large. Sucks for those of us with smaller feet but that’s just how the cookie crumbles. Cop yours now by going here.

Fun Fact: Did you Stance also sells for The Hot boyz and Juvenile? He’s still taking ova for the 99 and 2000!
