Black Hairstyles: Nicki Minaj Alexander Wang Fall 2015 Show

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 17, 2015Leave a Comment

She has gone from black to blonde and now she is back to black tinted hair. Nicki Minaj is definitely getting our “Fried, Dyed and Fabulously Laid to the Side” award! Nicki was front row for the Alexander Wang Fall 2015 runway show and wore her long locks up in a high ponytail with a full bang. We loved the thicker texture of her hair instead of a tail of super sleek strands. A simple hairstyle that still screams I am a Diva.

Rihanna and Beyonce Show Right Way to Wear Coats NYFW Fall 2015

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 16, 2015Leave a Comment

You simply can’t just slide your arms through your coat anymore and walk out the door if you want to look fashion forward. Take a page out of the stylish and diva books of Rihanna as well as Beyonce. The pair attended NYFW for fall 2015 and each wore their coats fabulously. RiRi let hers slide gracefully off her shoulders while Queen Bey had her arms out of her jacket completely allowing it just to rest of her shoulders. No arguments with either for the placement of the coats add a nice touch of flair to both ensembles.

Beauty Glam Now: Tracee Ellis Ross Pink Lips

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 16, 2015Leave a Comment

Diana Ross is a tough act to follow but her stylish daughter Tracee Ellis Ross continues to fill those shoes seamlessly. She has a hit television show on air (Black*ish) and took time out of her busy schedule to join Nene Leakes of RHOA on Watch What’s Happening Live with Andy Cohen. Ross looked flawless last night in a sparkling jumpsuit (we wanted it bad!) and her signature curly hair.

What we also took note of her was her stunning pink lip color. With spring right around the corner you will want to get your beauty hands on a lovely pink shade such as the one Tracee wore. Pinks as well as other light and airy colors coincide with spring fashions effortlessly. Just be sure to do as Tracee and keep the rest of your makeup streamlined so that your lips are the shining star.

Make Thin Hair Look Voluminous

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 13, 2015Leave a Comment

Of course there are products out on the market that could help with this matter, but the right haircut can do the trick as well. Now do not fear we are not talking about anything drastic especially if your goal is to retain length. Layering your hair will not only give it more movement but it will give it the illusion of having more volume. Simply have your hairdresser add a few subtle layers and you will have a fuller look without sacrificing any length.

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 13, 2015Leave a Comment

Have you seen Victoria’s Secret’s new swim catalog yet? You may of noticed something a little different. Nine gorgeous supermodels share the cover that is the catalog’s first fold out. Lais Ribiero and Sharam Diniz grace the momentous cover along with: Josephine Skriver, Monika Jac Jagaciak, Behati Prinsloo, Candice Swanepoel, Andreea Diaconu, Ophelie Guillermand, and Elsa Hosk.

Sports Illustrated always makes a big splash with their yearly Swim cover showcasing a bombshell in a tinsy bikini. Will Victoria’s Secret’s swim cover become just as popular? Only time shall tell, but we have to admit from a business standpoint there is no going wrong. Vickie’s move to put more emphasis on swimwear is an excellent due to recent reports that the swimwear industry shall reach $17.6 billion dollars in revenue this year.

Back to the cover, it is always nice to see stunning black models being representatives of beauty for our community as well as the globe. Cheers to Lais Ribiero as well as Sharam Diniz for getting another cover and we can’t wait to see more from these lovelies this year.

It looks like Fendi is loving them some Binx Walton! Lovely Binx not only walked in the Fendi runway show but she is also one of the models casted for the Fendi Spring 2015 ad campaign.

This year literally cause onlookers to have an intense reaction to your beauty! Scientists conducted a study showing that the color red causes people to react not only faster but more forcefully due to the emotions that ensue from gazing upon a rouge tone. Therefore, just from wearing the color red you could instantly become drop dead gorgeous.

Last week alone we spotted numerous stars wearing rouge lips ranging from shiny to matte versions. We are always fans of bold lip color so we decided to show off a few beauties who looked amazing in red. Enjoy the beauty inspiration!
