Business Success Quotes From Milano Di Rouge Fashion CEO

Arianne Suggs December 4, 2016December 4, 2016Leave a Comment

Have you ever thought about owning your own company one day? Thanks to technology and digital platforms more young women are becoming entrepreneurs than ever. Get the motivation you need to be a bonafide Boss Lady with Business Success Quotes From Milano Di Rouge Fashion CEO!

Business Success Quotes From Milano Di Rouge Fashion CEO

Fashion brand Milano di Rouge is owned and operated by black business owner, Milan Rouge. Milan has always possessed a knack for being a motivator. Her strong spirit led her to start her own successful blog and pursue the creation of a fashion label.

Milan always promotes that anyone can make their dreams a reality. There are so many wise things she has said but we collected together a few that are encouraging and give an insider’s view on being a company owner. Milan has said,

“Define success on your own terms, achieve it by your own rules and build a life you’re proud to live. So the question isn’t who is going to let me; it’s who is going to stop me.

“It’s so much negativity in this world I just try my best to bring some positivity, motivation and inspiration to anyone I come in contact with. Notice I said try, I’m still human [and] I still have my bad days. I just want us to realize our power and own it. I try to encourage everyone that if they truly want something that it’s obtainable, if they work hard enough. And if they truly want to know something the answer isn’t as hard to find as they think.”

Owning a couture brand involves making sure everything is on point online, in store, on social media as well as on set. Nevertheless, Milan also discussed how she handles the image of her label,

“Being the model and designer is tough. I have to always get out of model mode (inside the camera) and go into Director mode (outside looking in) to make sure everything is good. Luckily for me [my team] makes it’s a little easier for me to do because I trust their vision, although I’m still a little anal [because] I like to see for myself. Hence my facial expression: I’m probably saying “make sure the logos are visible and the shirt is not creasing!”

Business Success Quotes

Business success quotes are an excellent way to stay on track towards your goals. Post them around your workspace in order to keep your motivation high. Be like Milan and always remember that nothing you want is unattainable. In closing here are a few more Rouge sayings to never forget!

“It’s okay to support other women. it won’t hurt you. It’s a sisterhood not a competition.”

“I just want to continue to grow, learn and make my dreams a reality. After the fun it’s back to work. Well, actually it doesn’t feel like work when it’s your passion.”

Arianne Suggs December 2, 2016December 2, 2016Leave a Comment

Amber Rose walks for a good cause, makes stylish sunnies and also collaborates with Flirt Cosmetics. One very busy lady! What is one of her newest beauty products that is a must-have? We recommend Flirt Cosmetics Chicksticks By Amber Rose For The Ultimate Pout.

Flirt Cosmetics Chicksticks By Amber Rose

Want a pucker that will bring your crush to his knees? Prefer your lip color to be bold and vibrant? A huge fan of MUVA? If you answered yes to any of those questions then Flirt Cosmetics Chicksticks is definitely for you.

According to Amber the gorgeous lip tints are a “weapon of mass seduction.” The first two shades are already out and available for purchases. Flirt will be rolling them out two at a time so soon there will be even more shades to love. So then, what are the first two stick colors? Amber has truly put her own touch on them. She revealed,

“Chicksticks from Flirt Cosmetics, featuring my two lip shades named after my pugs! Pauly is the cool, hot pink and Franky is the deep, vampy plum.”

Therefore, whether you are the girly-girl or video vixen, Pauly and Franky will give you one sexy pout. However, here is our one warning. BE FAST ABOUT PURCHASING. Flirt is a newer, smaller company who’s demand is really picking up! So when they sale out you will be waiting a bit for restocking.

For instance, once upon a time Flirt Cosmetics made an Eyelash staple gun. The gun really worked, turned gals into beauty queens and then it sold out quickly. The end. The gun will be back soon but moral of story is that great products like Flirt Cosmetics Chicksticks will not last. So check it out along with other glam products by going here.

Covergirl So Lashy Mascara One Product For All Lashes

Arianne SuggsUpdated on December 2, 2016December 2, 2016Leave a Comment

Covergirl So Lashy Mascara is like nothing you have ever seen before. In the world of mascara product formulas have been changed and the size as well as shape of the mascara wand has gone thicker or slimmer. Nevertheless, Covergirl cosmetics just leveled up by developing a ball tip design.

Covergirl So Lashy Mascara One Product For All Lashes

At first glance this particular product looks like it would put an eye out quicker than create glam eyelashes. However, we assure you that So Lashy is truly ingenious. Regarding its newest mascara Covergirl had this to say,

“Ever have a friend rave about a mascara, but when you try it your lashes look less than 100? Covergirl hears you loud and clear, so we designed new So Lashy Mascara, the mascara for every lash type. The unique brush grabs, sculpts, and molds short, sparse, long, straight, whatever lashes – for one end look that is bold, sexy and everything you want. Bold sexy lashes for all equals Lash Equality.”

So then, it does not matter what type of lashes you were naturally blessed with because So Lashy can make them even more beautiful. A true blessing in beauty disguise. However, back to the ball tip, why add that to a wand? Covergirl once again gave an answer by breaking down the mechanics of the entire wand stating,

“So Lashy Mascara was designed for all lash types. On the short side? The bristles lengthen. Set with straight? The arched rows of bristles lift. Anywhere in between? The ball tip will grab even the hardest to reach lashes, ensuring you that bold + sexy look you crave.”

Covergirl So Lashy Mascara

Therefore, the ball tip is more like a lash finder. It can be used vertically as well as horizontally to get even the tiniest lashes to act right. Moreover, the tint of the Covergirl So Lashy Mascara is just as trans-formative. The deep, dark formula will make your eyelashes look more pronounced and readily visible.

Oh yeah! Last perk of this product is that it is waterproof! Look great in various weather conditions and get long lasting wear. Want So Lashy? Get yours now for less than $10 by going here.

Christian Siriano is a fashion designer for the people. He saved the day when actress Leslie Jones needed a dress for her biggest movie premiere and no one else would dress her. Also, during Fashion Week he advocated for plus size models. Siriano believes that curves are the way of the future and the rest of the industry needs to get on board. Christian sent several curvaceous models down the runway for his spring collection show.

Moreover, Christian just seems to understand a real woman’s body. He creates designs that look gorgeous on women of all shapes and sizes. Thus proving he can create for one and all and not just a mannequin.

New Christian Siriano Payless Shoes Collection

With such understanding of us ladies it is no wonder he also understands that sometimes designer looks are just not in the budget. The CS x Payless Shoes Collection is coming soon and if you love pink you will be in 7th heaven. Christian hit up SM to say, “To brighten up a rainy day in NYC a little sneak peek of our new pink sequin shoes from our new collection with Payless Shoes.” (Shoes Pictured Above)

Pink makes sense because Siriano has been quite busy working on other pink creations. Recent photos showcase gowns incorporating pale shades of pink to deeper rose tints. Take a look for yourself:

These beautiful couture looks are apart of Christian’s Resort and Spring 2017 collections. Therefore, does this point to a Payless Shoes release occurring in time for spring? Our Spidey senses are feeling like it but we will definitely keep you in the loop!

Arianne Suggs December 1, 2016December 1, 2016Leave a Comment

Well if we can’t party in Paris with supermodels we can at least smell like one who does! Right now several of the biggest names in the modeling industry are living it up in France as they take part in the filming of this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. We love Vicky, her annual runway extraganza and we love Paris. Therefore, naturally we are obsessed with Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume and you should be too!

Editor Pick: Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume

The Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume is the latest fragrance to make its way down the Vicky pipeline. The interesting thing about Victoria’s fragrances is that you never think they will be able to outdo past favorites. Yet, somehow they do it every single time.

The Paris fragrance is described as perfectly capturing the “scent of Parisian gardens.” Ugh, could that sound anymore dreamy? Moreover, it contains notes of white cedar wood, French cypress as well as night blooming jasmine. Together a tantalizing cocktail of fabulousness is produced.

If you have read our other product pick posts then you already know we are sticklers when it comes to packaging and design. If we’re spending money it better look like what we paid. With that said, Paris’ bottle is divine. It definitely reads luxury and deserves a spot on a vanity. Furthermore, the packaging is a winter wonderland complete with ribbons. In short, the packaging is as sleek as the bottle itself.

Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume

This seductive fragrance inspired by the City of Light is now available! However, dolls you may want to hurry on this one. Paris is limited edition so you’ll want to cop one before it completely sells out.

Let’s talk price point real quick. Each gorgeously packed Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume retails for $65. Available online and in store. BUT another reason we love Vicky is because of all the freebies!

Right now if you buy Paris or any Bombshell fragrance (1.7 oz or larger) you will also receive a FREE Paris or Bombshell lotion. All you have to do is enter code TRYLOTION. Consider yourself officially tipped off (LOL). Enjoy Paris dolls, happy shopping and don’t forget Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2016 airs on CBS December 5th!

Arianne SuggsUpdated on November 30, 2016November 30, 2016Leave a Comment

Prince Harry looks like he is ready to risk it all… again! Prince Harry has been all up in the news over his latest girlfriend, actress Meghan Markle. Controversy arose after some very unkind comments were made in regards to their union. However, Harry has handled every situation with grace just like his mother would have and has faithfully stuck up and by his woman. Yet, now the talk of the town is about another famous lady. Read on to get all the details on Prince Harry Meets Rihanna As Barbados Celebrates 50.

Prince Harry Meets Rihanna As Barbados Celebrates 50

Long live HarRih! Alright, we will cool our heels because this looks to be just an innocent meeting. Prince Harry is visiting Barbados due to the country celebrating fifty years of independence.

Harry also delivered a message from the Queen who unfortunately could not attend. Harry said to all in attendance in behalf of the Queen, “Prince Philip and I send our warmest wishes to the Government and the people of Barbados… Our countries have shared history, shared values and an affection which continues to bind us.”

Besides helping Barbados ring in their freedom, Harry also took part in more humantarian work. He visited sick children at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Bridgetown. His visit was definitely welcomed and he even received a hug from one of the young patients.

Prince Harry Meets Rihanna

Okay drums please, the moment you have been waiting for has arrived. How did HarRih and the whole Prince Harry Meets Rihanna event come about? As all true fans know Rihanna hails from Barbados which makes sense that she would go home in order to celebrate such a huge historic benchmark.

Rihanna and Harry were both attending Prime Minister Freundel Stuart’s Toast to the Nation when they were seen shaking hands. An extremely happy looking Prince Harry looked ecstatic to meet superstar Rihanna.

Furthermore, we don’t blame Prince Harry at all for being so excited. Rihanna looked glamorous in a low cut blue gown accessorized with gold jewelry. Who knows maybe the pair will become good friends. At the very least we can expect some cool memes to be on the way!

Does Chocolate Cause Acne? Esthechoc Could Change the Game

Arianne Suggs November 30, 2016November 30, 2016Leave a Comment

How can the perfect comfort food when surviving monthly cramps be so bad? Researchers for years have been trying to solve the mystery, does chocolate cause acne? Some can eat the yummy, delectable treat while others simply can not. Therefore, is there a way chocolate and skincare can actually come together in a positive way?

Does Chocolate Cause Acne? Esthechoc Could Change the Game

Okay dolls here is the truth in a beauty nutshell. There is absolutely little to no evidence proving that chocolate causes breakouts. Alright, so what gives? Why do some people eat the coco and wind up as a pie face?

The thing is what has been proven through countless studies is that consuming a high-sugar/high-fat diet can lead to acne. This is because such a diet can increase sebum production thus promoting inflammatory responses within the body. Those responses is what leads to ugly breakouts.

Sebum is a greasy oil that is secreted from the sebaceous glands. We need sebum because it helps to lubricate as well as waterproof our hair and skin. Without sebum our skin and hair would lack moisture and dry out.

As you can see sebum can be good or disastrous. As mama always said, “Too much of a good thing can be bad.” Acne forms when too much sebum is produced. So then, you can begin to see why it is important not to do anything that may increase oil production. Besides watching our diet we would also want to avoid over washing our skin.

Does Chocolate Cause Acne? Esthechoc – The Game Changer

So we have debunked the myth, does chocolate cause acne and now we are going to share some good news! The amazing scientists over at Cambridge have answered all of our chocolate prayers and developed Esthechoc. Esthechoc is a dark chocolate that comes packed with anti-aging benefits. Clinical trials of the chocolate have been very promising. One piece of Esthechoc was shown to reduce inflammation and promote firmer skin.

So then, they are telling us chocolate does not crack (wink, wink). Want some Esthechoc in your life? Get a 21 day supply of chocolate for $55 by going here.
