Arianne Suggs October 30, 2015October 30, 2015Leave a Comment

It is never too early to begin your journey on the road to fashion epicness. As proven by Kanye West’s cutie pie daughter, North West. This week a video of North went viral as she walked along in a parking lot passing by paparazzi uttering, “I said no pictures.”

North may not have wanted the attention but it was hard not to look due to her super stylish ensemble. North is enrolled in dance class that may also lend to her fabulous tutu outfits. However, West has been seen rocking the tutu sometimes accompanied by designer jackets by brands such as Balmain even outside of class. Therefore, it is safe to say that little North enjoys the look and she should because she looks absolutely adorable. For this reason, we present 5 times North West has slayed the tutu.

Pajama parties are making a comeback! What better way to spend time talking to your squad about the Mr. Good Looking and how he better pick up the pace before cuffing season ends. The girlfriend PJ soiree is one filled of laughs, tears, chick flicks, specialty food/drinks and of course style! Long gone are the days of throwing on that old oversized shirt left by the ex or given to you by grandma. Remember ladies, those Instagram “woes” photos are going to need a fashionable touch to break 100 likes.

Take a cue from island gal Rihanna who always sets tone and trends associated with good fashion. Rihanna chose to lounge in a Jack Wills Onesie Striped Pajamas ensemble. Super cute, super comfortable and by the looks of the photos highly voguish.

Rihanna Showcases The New PUMA Eskiva

Arianne SuggsUpdated on October 26, 2015October 26, 2015Leave a Comment

Looking to take your shoe game to a whole other level? Then, it is time to look to the badgal herself for the pair of sporty sneaks that you are going to want to cop before the holiday rush. Rihanna can be seen flying high in PUMA’s latest release, the PUMA Eskiva.

Now we are only going to warn all the sneaker heads and kicks lovers out there once. If you want to get your hands on these bad boys you better put your bids in now. Remember Rihanna’s Creeper shoes sold out in just three hours! Of course, it is of note that the Eskiva is not a collaboration between Rihanna and the popular brand. Rihanna is a brand ambassador with creative director responsibilities, however, in this case Rihanna is just on modeling duty.

Nevertheless, everything that Rihanna seems to touch seems to sale. Therefore, do not sleep on the Eskivas or you may be watching your friends walking around in them instead.

Personally, we are fans of the Eskiva Hi design because of its more modern feel and look than the average sneaker. However, there is a Mid style for those who are feeling the Eskiva but prefer a more normal shoe height. Check out a few more photos below and be advised that the shoe is available for purchase.

Hotline Bling Drake Kisses & Tells With Tom Ford Lips and Boys Collection

Arianne Suggs October 23, 2015October 23, 2015Leave a Comment

In all honesty, this week should have a holiday named after hip hop artist Drake, because who of us did not watch hours upon hours (at work and at home LOL) of #DrakeAlwaysOnBeat remixed videos? Drake released the dancing, multi-colored set music video for his single Hotline Bling that took off like a wildfire on social media within minutes. Now Drake is ending the week in the news again but this time it isn’t music related.

Drake along with actor Jake Gyllenhaal are apart of Tom Ford’s second installment of lip colors that fall within his Lips & Boys collection. This line of lip shades in the end will encompass 50 lip tints all related to men that are connected to Tom Ford in some way, shape or form. Therefore, what is the degree of separation between designer Tom Ford and Drake?

You may recall that Drake’s song Tuscan Leather aptly named after Tom Ford’s popular fragrance where he specifically names Tom Ford. Can’t quite remember the single? Check out this performance to get a quick shot of memory lane.

Got it now? We thought you would and besides the single Drake also wore accessories from the Tom Ford collection for a GQ magazine spread back in 2012. So then, I guess you could say that Tom and Drake both respect each other’s artistry.

Drakes lip shade for the Tom Ford Lips & Boys Collection will be a gorgeous deep Burgundy tint. As deep as his lyrics go at times we think this is the perfect shade to fit mister Champagnepapi! The new colors will retail for $52 and will be available come Black Friday.

Do you want Drake to touch your lips? Let us know by dropping a comment down low or hit us up on our Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram or tweet us @1966magazine.

Tom Ford Exclusive Eyewear

Whether Tom Ford is designing for men or women one thing is for sure, his fashions are always a hit. Besides the announcement this week of a new lipstick (check out our next post for details) that is to be named after mister Hotline Bling himself, Drake, we could not get enough of the visuals highlighting a few pf Tom’s accessory pieces. From handbags to jewelry Ford is bringing a luxurious flair to women’s fashion and style.

We love the sophisticated as well as versatile design of these accessories allowing them to go from day to night seamlessly. Moreover, if matching accessories can be a little of a challenge the color palette of these accessories will match nicely with an array of fall/winter ensembles. Here are just a few of the plush designs from the Tom Ford Autumn/Winter collection.

Supermodel Sharim Diniz Attends Balmain for H&M Fashion Show

Arianne Suggs October 21, 2015October 21, 2015Leave a Comment

23 Wall St. of New York City was the biggest style party of night thanks to the arrival of Oliver Rousteing’s Balmain army. Some of the biggest names in the modeling world came out to stomp the runway in the Balmain for H&M collection show highlighting designer fashions that are more “affordable” for the average fashionista. What exactly does affordable mean in relation to the BalmainxHM collection?

Keeping it totally 100, the high-end collaboration contains designs well over the $500 mark, however, do not despair if your dream is to own a Balmain creation even if the wallet isn’t as fat right now. Every last piece of collection will be available for sale beginning on November 5th and will include several pieces under $100! So then, even though this dreamy match up between Balmain and H&M is not the cheapest collab we have seen from H&M there are still plenty of styles available that will not completely break the bank.

Nevertheless, besides world renown beauties strutting their stuff down the catwalk there were plenty of stunners sitting right in the audience partaking of the show. One being the drop dead, I Wanna Hate On You But I Love Your Style SoFreakin’ Much, Sharim Diniz. Sharim looked too beautiful for words in a yellow Balmain dress as she supported her dear friend Oliver. Diniz took to social media during show stating,

“Supporting my favorite designer from all times Oliver Rousteing…”

“THE BEST SHOW EVER <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 CONGRATS OLI!”

Her sentiments rang true right along with several other celebs who felt the show was very successful as well. The only part of the night that broke our hearts is seeing The Backstreet Boys being inducted into the Balmain squad. Nothing against the boys, it’s just that we are NSYNC fans (LOL), but in the spirit of fashion we are willing to let it go.

VIDEO: See BTS Footage of Serena William’s Harper’s Bazaar November 2015 Shoot!

Arianne Suggs October 20, 2015October 20, 2015Leave a Comment

She won’t stop, can’t stop and we absolutely love it all! Serena Williams has conquered the court, the catwalk (as a model and designer) and has even blown away the masses as a major magazine cover girl. Williams has been on numerous covers this year including Vogue back in April as well as when she dropped the proverbial model mic by doing the splits for New Yorker magazine (August 2015). Serena Williams has solidified herself as being a true queen inside and out!

We feel the need to quote Drake here for just a moment… clears throat… “You know it’s beauty when her smile is her best curve.” Serena truly does have one of the most beautiful smiles in the game, but we love her for ALL of her curves too! Besides, her stunning physique it is Serena’s personality and drive that also inspires and influences women the world over.

For their November issue Harper’s Bazaar is celebrating women who are not afraid to be daring. In a very honest interview Serena discusses how she feels confident in her profession because she has been at since the tender age of 3. Moreover, she goes on to say that she believes some people were born to do a certain thing and she has not missed her calling because she was born to be a tennis player. With 21 Grand Slam titles under her belt it is very hard to disagree with those statements. Nevertheless, Williams did admit to one fear in particular stating,

“Every time I go down a red carpet, I get a little nervous. I’ve done it 20,000 times, but you’d be surprised. I always have to take a deep breath before I go out there. Put on a brave, bold pose.”

We would have never even guessed that by the way Williams looks like so relaxed on the red carpet. However, goes to show that all of us are humans and deal with some sort of anxiety, but it is impossible to be strong enough to overcome them. Along those lines Serena mentioned what being daring means to her by saying,

“Daring to me is taking a chance but not doing it blindly. A very calculated chance. Think of amazing women like Sheryl Sandberg and Oprah Winfrey—they’re daring, but they’re not jumping off a building without a parachute, you know? You have to be smart about it. You can’t be afraid to be a pioneer and take a chance and speak up and just be bold.”

Amen to that Serena Williams and may we are continue to trek through life being daring and taking chances for the better. Want to see a Behind the Scenes look at Serena Williams Harper’s Bazaar photoshoot lensed by Douglas Friedman? Keep scrolling…

Fashion Notes: Yes, white after Labor Day is okay ladies. We just love Williams’ white Ralph Lauren jumpsuit paired with sandals by Christian Louboutin.
