Savage X Fall Winter 2018 Fashion Show for NYFW

ArianneUpdated on September 13, 2018September 12, 2018

PHHH… PHRESH OUT THE RUNWAY! No one does fashion week like a Badgal! The Savage X Fall Winter 2018 fashion show by far was the hottest ticket of New York Fashion Week. Dancers, top models and a collection of lingerie that would make anyone break a sweat. Ohhh baby!

Savage X Fall Winter 2018 Fashion Show for NYFW

Listen, business mogul, Rihanna, sure knows how to attract attention and stir up some sales! The Savage X creator not only sent a spanking new fall/winter collection down the catwalk; but she also dropped it online at the SAME TIME. Uh, can you say, website crash?

What can fans and lingerie lovers as well as consumers expect? The autumn collection is full of fun flirty colors as well as details. More lace, ribbons and barely there see-through material were incorporated into numerous fab looks.

The color scheme is vast yet alluring and steamy fun. Rich blue, bold light green, red and decadent purple all permeated the seductive designs. Nevertheless, if boisterous hues are no where to be found in your couture dictionary; you will be happy to know there are “safer” tones to enjoy as well.

Rihanna’s fall/winter garments also include some frilly, ultra fem pinks, lilac and light baby blues. Plus, numerous looks additionally utilize a very earth tone palette. Think browns, military green, and light tans. Or, if all else fails there is always classic black.

Savage X Fall Winter 2018 Fashion Show for NYFW (Continued)

One sexy element we certainly adored was the use of accessories, such as the “long hand gloves.” Since let’s face it, wearing the same old … same old intimate apparel is a total bore! The real fun is in the additions.

The gloves that extend from fingertips to above the elbows exude a very vintage, full of sass feel. Like the pin up doll era. This retro sexy incorporation is a surefire way to increase your lingerie attire’s fierce appeal. Like it really needs it though (wink, wink).

Savage X Fall Winter 2018

Like any dominant businesswoman, Rihanna ALWAYS listens to her fans and consumers. When Savage X first hit the fashion scene, many felt that they were not apart of the equation. Ladies from all over the world spoke up about the size range availability within Savage X.

Rihanna obviously got the memo and listened 100%. The autumn/winter runway showcased tons of diversity and inclusion. Thin shapes, curvy shapes and everything in-between hit the catwalk to proudly represent women of all physiques.

Rihanna’s line proves that where there is a will, there is a way to be inclusive of women of all sizes, heights and structure. The fashion industry has always leaned toward one particular look; nevertheless, with the success of Savage X other designers and owners may just take note.

Tom Ford Cardi Lipstick – Smoking Blue From the Boys and Girls Collection

Arianne September 10, 2018September 10, 2018

Yep… you have to be quicker than that. If you were among the thousands of beauty hopefuls wishing upon a makeup star to get the new Tom Ford Cardi Lipstick; most likely, it is still unfortunately just a wish. The Cardi B cosmetics collaboration with iconic fashion designer, Tom Ford, literally sold out in a blink of an eye.

The popularity of Cardi’s release comes as no surprise. The hip hop star and now most streamed female rapper of all time also enjoyed much attention for her couture collab with Steve Madden. A line that consisted of fabulous curated styles straight from the top footwear brand. Since fashion was such a hit, it makes sense that Cardi B would try and extend her hands into beauty.

Tom Ford Cardi Lipstick – Smoking Blue From the Boys and Girls Collection

Nevertheless, the color of Cardi’s lipstick is also well-timed. With blue lipsticks not really being seen since the beginning of the year, Cardi’s blue hue lippy was certainly a fresh breath of air. An electric blue shade with an ultra sultry, smooth finish thanks to a creamy ingredient mix of: Chamomilla Flower Extract and Brazilian Murumuru Butter.

Other than a recent sighting on Janet Jackson in promotion of her Made For Now single, the lip tint was acting more like an unicorn. Rarely seen. Yet, Tom Ford and Cardi B is bringing it back to the fore and are flaunting it proudly. The Cardi lipstick is apart of the Tom Ford Boys and Girls Collection and the luxury brand says the reason Ford created the lip line is because:

“To Tom Ford, there is no more dramatic accessory than a perfect lip. It is the focus of the face and it has the power to define a woman’s whole look. The collection showcases a decadent wardrobe of 50 rich, vivacious, sensuous shades; that influence a mood and transform an entire look for maximum impact.”

Furthermore, each color in the collection represents a woman that Tom Ford admires. For instance, you will also find lipsticks with names such as: Letitia, Cindy, Jessica and Kaia. You may be able to guess who those colors belong too. Nonetheless, each lipstick retails for $36 each. However, so far there is no word on a restock on Cardi. Sorry peeps.

“After all these years the luminous Janet Jackson is still our girl crush – and the cover star of our October beauty issue! What does she think makes a woman beautiful? ‘It’s vulnerability. It’s power… confidence … happiness… being selfless and what you do for others before doing for yourself,’ she tells Laura Brown.

Janet opens up about life as a mom and an entertainer; beauty, and what it was really like growing up [a] Jackson.”

Beautiful Black Women: Janet Jackson Covers InStyle October 2018 Issue

Janet seems to have always had plenty of confidence. From belting out her hits in front of thousands night after night; to having the ability to follow the toughest act in music, her big bro Michael Jackson… and succeed; while breaking numerous records in her own right.

Nonetheless, for the October 2018 edition of InStyle Jackson shares the moment she finally had her “Aha” confidence moment. In a sneak peek of their exclusive InStyle states:

“The first time Janet Jackson truly felt sexy and confident wasn’t until she was well into her 30s. ‘I got out of a funky relationship and finally got back to me,’ she opens up to Laura Brown in our October beauty issue.

‘I went to therapy, which was all about finding that thing you like about yourself. The realization that, you know what; you’re not so bad after all. I’m not saying you’re great or you’re the best; but it’s not as bad as you were made to feel that it was.’

How did she overcome some of her biggest insecurities? ‘A lot of it has to do with experience, getting older. Understanding, realizing that there isn’t just one thing that is considered beautiful. Beautiful comes in all shapes, sizes, and colors.’ Amen to that. Full interview [online].”
