NeNe Leakes Sports a New Do’!

Arianne Suggs June 19, 2015June 19, 2015Leave a Comment

Reality starlet, actress and Broadway It Girl NeNe Leakes is showing why she is one of Atlanta’s baddest. NeNe rocked a brand new look this week which has deviated from her short hair cuts that she has worn for several years now. NeNe was one of the many celebrities in attendance for the amFar gala which was held in New York. Leakes wore a shimmery black dress, strappy heels and a new sassy hairdo’!

Leakes kept the blonde hair color but is now wearing long wavy hair with a side part. We think the hairstyle looks absolutely fab on NeNe and you can tell that she is feeling it! What prompted the change? Well, who can forget during last season’s escapades where a fellow RHOA (Real Housewives of Atlanta) cast member contrasted Leakes tresses to that of a pack of ramen. Definitely a low blow filled with buckets of shade.

Nevertheless, NeNe is not one to let any woman’s opinion deter her so the change was because she simply wanted it! We always say to rock a style not according to what the masses say but because it is a personal choice. So then, what do you think of NeNe’s new hair look, are you feeling it?

Why Drink Green Tea In the Morning

Alicia Suggs June 18, 2015June 18, 2015Leave a Comment

I’m an avid tea drinker. There is not a morning that goes by where I don’t have tea. Unlike coffee I still feel healthy and not completely caffeinated in the way that coffee makes you feel. It gives me just the right amount of energy I need! But besides my preference on why I drink tea their are other reasons why you should drink tea especially green tea in the morning.

Green tea is extremely rich in antioxidants. It has 10 times more antioxidants than the amount found in fruits and vegetables! It has also shown to be more powerful than vitamins C and E in halting damage to cells.

So whats a good choice for green tea? I swear by Bigelow Green Tea 40 Count Boxes Pack of 6 so yummy and the ingredients are simple… green tea.

We loved RiRi’s entire ensemble from head-to-toe which included boots, “stunna” shades, handbag and a fab denim dress! Rihanna was in attendance for the Christian Dior Fall 2015 Tokyo Show. The singer even took a moment to snap a quick shot with the CEO of Dior, Sidney Toledano.

Hair Notes: Rihanna has never shied away from taking risks when it comes to her fashion choices or numerous hairstyles. Rihanna’s fiery red locks looked gorgeous styled into vintage waves and a deep side part. Looks like old Hollywood glam made its way across the pond to trendy Tokyo!

Like those boots that Rihanna is rocking? Those shoes are from the Dior Resort 2016 collection.

Everyday Beauty: Tightlining

Alicia Suggs June 17, 2015June 17, 2015Leave a Comment

I have always tighlined my eyes since I started wearing makeup and is a technique I will continue to do.What is tightlining? It’s a way of applying your eye liner right in between your lashes. This is a great way of adding a little bit of definition to your eyes, and making the base of your lashes appear thicker. It really works and looks so natural as if you were just born with smoldering eyes.

60 Year Old Iman On Vanity Fair Italia July 2015

Alicia SuggsUpdated on June 17, 2015June 17, 2015Leave a Comment

Ok age is truly just a number, well at least for Iman. This Supermodel just doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. She is serving major fierceness in her editorial for Vanity Fair Italia for July. In this magazine she explains how she stay ageless:

“I go to the gym, I am attentive to the diet. And I’m not complaining of the extra pounds, at least a couple, because they act as a natural botox. When women get older the first place you see it is the face that becomes too thin, worn out, tired. And then they go to get botox, but for me the best remedy is a bit ‘overweight’.”

Hair Crush: Aimiomode Anetor at ‘Incorruptible’ Screening

Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 17, 2015June 17, 2015Leave a Comment

Actress Aimiomode Anetor shut the red carpet down when she attended the screening for the film Incorruptible. This documentary examples the role that youths are playing in shaping the future of the country of Africa. Back in 2011 Senegal was pitched into crisis when President Abodoulaye Wade announced his plans to change the constitution which would allow leaders to have a third term. From this decision onward a youth movement was born in order to protect one of Africa’s oldest and stable democracies.

For the screening Anetor walked the carpet in an all white ensemble that showed off her beautiful skin tone. Just as gorgeous was her voluminous wavy strands that gracefully fell past her shoulders. Whether hitting a beach in the Caribbean or a swanky pool party Aimiomode’s hairstyle would be perfect.
