Arianne Suggs August 8, 2017August 8, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Actress Halle Berry’s Michelle My Belle T-Shirt as seen when serving up some serious streetstyle. Halle was out and about busily promoting her new film, Kidnap.

You Asked: HEYYYYYY! 1966 I can’t find Halle’s shirt on her. I tracked down the brand she wore but they are ignoring me! I noticed others asking them about it on their page and they haven’t commented at all! Do you know how to get a shirt and how much it cost??

Ask and Tell: Halle Berry’s Michelle My Belle T-Shirt Streetstyle Look

The Verdict: Don’t you just hate that! Find something you want and it’s like conducting an FBI search just trying to found out a few details. Well, it looks as though The Spiders of Arts brand who makes the shirt isn’t giving up any info. If you want a shirt directly from them the only way to get it is to contact them through email.

Or you can try another company who basically sales the same awesome Michelle My Belle T-shirt. Through our thorough and exhaustive search we found quite few sellers online. Prices for this particular garment seem to range from $19 to around $30. Depending on what size or style (regular tee or tank) that you desire.

If searching online try: FizzStyle, TeeDucky, T Shirt Czar, Teesspot or TeeYeTi. All of those merchants sell the shirt that you are after. FizzStyle seemed to have the most selection in terms of style and size.

Hope that answered your fashion question! If you or a style obsessed gal pal has one they would like to ask give us a follow on Instagram, slide into our DMs and ask away.

Arianne SuggsUpdated on August 7, 2017August 7, 2017Leave a Comment

Love Will Never Do Without You! Ah, it looks like another bit of 90’s style nostalgia is coming back by popular demand. For a recent photo shoot for fashion brand and website, Story and Rain, model Jasmine Sanders Channels Janet Jackson. Moreover, if this sexy iconic look is the way of the future count us in!

Jasmine Sanders Channels Janet Jackson For Story and Rain Photoshoot

As they say what’s old is new again. The Story and Rain shoot had Janet Jackson down with a capital “T.” Black crop top, tight denim jeans and the infamous black hairband updo. All that was missing was the super hot male models in their skivvies.

Nonetheless, the Internet never fails to weigh in on any hot topic especially when it comes to fashion and hair! We gathered a few stylish thoughts across platforms proving that we weren’t the only ones seeing Ms. Jackson, because we’re nasty!

“Gorg- total Janet Jackson, “Love will never do without you” moment.”

“Janet Jackson.”

“Cool.”

“Channeling Janet!”

“Twins.”

“Janet Jackson vibes!! Love it.”

“Beautiful.”

“Looking flawless as per usual, your hair is just fantastic.”

“Gorgeous.”

“Isssaaaa babe.”

“Sexy pie.”

“Reminds me of the Janet Jackson video. This is fire!”

Hair Notes: Jasmine Sanders sassy hairstyle could not have been created without a rockstar celebrity hairstylist at the helm. Sanders’ Janet hair was slayed by the one and only, Ted Gibson. Gibson is behind some of the famous hair looks seen on Lupita Nyong’o, Cameron Dias, Tessa Thompson, Ariana Grande, Naomie Harris and Angelina Jolie just to name a few.

All in all, we are loving this shoot which was lensed by Mike Rosenthal. Can’t wait to see the official photos!
