Normani Named Savage X Fenty Brand Ambassador -It’s Very First!

Normani Named Savage X Fenty Brand Ambassador

Rihanna’s savage lingerie brand continues to make moves and show it possesses the “Motivation” to evolve for the future. The latest? THIS  JUST IN: Normani Named Savage X Fenty Brand Ambassador! This is HUGE news; as the intimates brand has never had a face or ambassador behind the company other than Rih herself.

Is this good or bad news? Good. Very good! While numerous reports are indicating that Victoria’s Secret is in decline; this could be a real opportunity for Rihanna to slip in and dominate. Just like she did in beauty.

You see, 2019 is already a good year for Savage X Fenty. It saw sales reaching up towards $150 million in pure revenue. Additionally, the brand received another $50 million in fresh funding.

If that was not enough, Rihanna also put on quite the spread in terms of fashion shows. It lived up to the company’s mission statement which is, “Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty celebrates fearlessness, confidence and inclusivity. We want you to feel sexy and have fun doing it.”

Her show had it all. Dance numbers, top models, and a major biggie… ALL SIZES AND SHAPES! Where other fashion shows only send a size zero down a catwalk. Rihanna hit the masses with a show that showed REAL body types.

Normani Named Savage X Fenty Brand Ambassador -It’s Very First

Now enter Savage X Fenty’s new brand ambassador, Normani. This moves opens the door to connect Normani’s fanbase and image to the brand. Moreover, we are sure more brand ambassadors will be named in the future.

Nevertheless, trust us when we say Rihanna is self-sufficient and can drive the ship all on her own. Her influence has successfully launched numerous companies. However, bringing on others only helps to bring EVEN MORE hype and attention to the brand.

Victoria had her angels. Rihanna has her savages. This is honestly just good business for the ever growing brand. Plus, Normani is the perfect choice for Rihanna’s sexy brand. The girl has moves, that voice and don’t even get us started on that body!

As Rihanna’s lingerie brand enters a new era, we can only foresee good things. The competition is scrambling, while Savage X Fenty is just doing its thing and creating hype. Congrats to Rihanna and Normani on this awesome partnership!

No one likes a good preview more than us. As a result, we went start to the source in order to find out what exactly is in this upcoming magazine edition. Regarding Zendaya’s cover, editorial beauty and story; the magazine says,

“Zendaya puts the Z in Gen Z; and she’s just begun to take flight. Introducing our Out of Office issue starring Zendaya! Her style is on point. Her humor is subtle. And in Euphoria she can break your heart with a look.

[For our December/January issue] Zendaya took us to all new heights with these looks. Creating Zendaya’s 70’s-inspired hair, makeup; and wardrobe for her Allure cover shot was a team effort from her long-time glam squad.

Makeup artist Sheika Daley created a custom blue wash of color on her lids and hairstylist Larry Sims sculpted the edgy; sky-high hair to complement the bold look.

[Furthermore, in her story you’ll learn] ‘You can’t do it all’ is one of Zendaya’s least favorite sayings. [She says] ‘It makes me mad. I don’t like the idea that you have to box yourself in or stay in one lane. Why wouldn’t I want to try to make the most of my talents and my gifts while I can?'”

We agree Zendaya! If you believe it, you can achieve it. Don’t ever short change yourself! Check out the rest of Zendaya’s cover story at Allure.com.

Vintage Waves -As Seen on Jodie Smith PLUS Tutorials!

Vintage Waves

Jodie Smith hit the red carpet in Vintage Waves for the Queen and Slim Premiere and we completely lost our composure! Hands down one of the hottest hair looks of the year. Smith bodied this classic style all while making it her own.

Seriously, she looked so good, even she had to comment about it. Via her social media page on Instagram; Jodie got into her fabulous hairstyle by stating,

“BEAUTY FLASHBACK: Queen and Slim Premiere! Had to take a moment to appreciate this look and the efforts of my amazing glam team! Old Hollywood meets new Hollywood with finger waves and graphic liner above a patent leather choker and silk plisse gown.”

Translation? I looked the bomb peasants (lol)!!! However, in all seriousness; she really was a knock out. Nevertheless, it is very hard not to stun when rocking with such a classic hair look.

Vintage finger waves is still a hit even though it is now almost 100 years later. Back in the 1920’s you couldn’t look much hotter than with slick wavy hair. Nowadays, this sleek style still causes a stir by any daring enough to wear it.

Versace V-Bow Cage Pumps in Black [Fashionable Mention]!

Versace V-Bow Cage Pumps

Versace V-Bow Cage Pumps anyone? Uhm… HECK YEAH! We are absolutely DYING to add these beauties to our wardrobes! Heralding from the Versace Fall / Winter 2019 collection; these heels give brand new meaning to “caged” shoe wear.

For instance, when many think of cage heels or sandals; what may instantly come to mind is “gladiator” style high heels or sandals. A major shoe trend that took the ENTIRE fashion industry by storm from the runway to fast fashion. Mainly because the overall vibe and essence of the cage design is edgy, sexy and dare we say, EXTREMELY eye-catching. However, Versace’s modern version is all of those things and more!

Seriously, it is the cage look on crack (and we mean that in the best way lol). It’s wild, sassy and straight up oozing of lustrous sophistication. There is absolutely NO WAY you will not turn heads if you wear a pair of these Versace pumps.

Furthermore, we adore the crystal embellishments. They add a higher level of decadence to a design of shoe that is already simply divine. Plus, if you are the type of person who loves to make a scene when you walk into an event. These shoes will get you all the attention and style adoration that you seek.

Versace V-Bow Cage Pumps in Black

So what details does Versace reveal about these amazing pumps? Well, in regards to the V-Bow Cage heels Versace states,

“In preparation for the upcoming festive season; an array of crystal-enriched accessories is featured in our gift guide. These heritage cage pumps are crafted from soft satin and embellished with crystal-enriched accents. Including bows and Medusa medallions.”

Want to make these babies your very own? Well, you can if you take out a loan… (We kid Lol). These high-end shoes are a bit of a splurge and currently retail for a cool $2,475. Get those OT shifts in fashionistas!
