You Asked: I am so happy for Cardi! She is such a role model. She did it all her way and she is still herself. I never even realized how fashion she truly is till now. I can not get over her look with the fur that she wore to that fashion show. Who is she wearing she killed it!

Cardi B Attending Marc Jacobs Fall 2018

The Verdict: Thank you for the fashionable message and we completely agree with you. Cardi B is out here looking drop dead gorgeous. For her appearance at the recent Marc Jacobs runway show; we thought Cardi’s stylist, Kollin Carter, did an amazing job dressing her in an ensemble that is not only high-end but fits the Cardi B image.

Furthermore, when attendees are invited to a various fashion show it is good couture manners to wear the designer’s own garments if possible. In view of this Cardi B wore an off the runway outfit straight from the Marc Jacobs Fall 2018 RTW (Ready to Wear). Since when you are a star you always have first access to the hottest and newest collections!

The Obamas Official Portrait Unveiling for The National Portrait Gallery

 

Obamas Official Portrait

The Obamas Official Portrait Unveiling was a black history month moment that none are soon to forget. Masses of onlookers turned out to see the stunning creations of artists, Amy Sherald and Kehinde Wiley.

Obamas Official Portrait

The Obamas both shared touching expressions in regards to not only their works of art; but also, the historic legacy behind them. Here is a snippet of what they said:

“As a young girl, even in my wildest dreams, I never could have imagined this moment. Nobody in my family has ever had a portrait. There are no portraits of the Robinsons or the Shields from the South Side of Chicago.

This is all a little bit overwhelming, especially when I thing about all of the young people who will visit the National Portrait Gallery and see this. Including so many young girls and young girls of color who don’t often see their images displayed in beautiful and iconic ways.

Obamas Official Portrait

I am so proud to help make that kind of history. But the fact is that none of this would be possible without the extraordinary artist; and woman behind this portrait, Amy Sherald. Thanks you Amy. It was a joy to work with you and get to know you.”

-Former First Lady Michelle Obama

“Amy, I want to thank you for so spectacularly capturing the grace; and intelligence, and charm; and hotness, of the woman that I love.”

-Former President Barack Obama

Obamas Official Portrait

Obamas Official Portrait – The Artists Speak Out

Nevertheless, what about the artists themselves? Both had the honor and privilege of getting to know the Former President and First Lady in order to get inspired when painting their masterpieces. Regarding being able to work on such pieces for The Obamas the artists revealed:

“The ability to be the first African – American painter to paint the first African-American president of the United States is absolutely overwhelming.”

-Kehinde Wiley

Obamas Official Portrait

“Big thank you to Flotus stylist Meredith Koop for helping with the styling and sourcing of this gorgeous dress for the portrait! It was an honor to work with you!!!!”

Amy Sherald

Wish to see both of these stunning and lovely portraits in person? They are only a trip away, so make plans to travel to Washington, D.C.

Allure March 2018

The Allure March 2018 edition is giving us serious William sisters vibes! We spy braids and hair accessory beads as far as the eye can see. It is a beautiful thing. The cover featuring Oscar winner, Lupita Nyong’o is certainly one for the culture.

Allure March 2018 Issue Featuring Actress Lupita Nyong’o

Don’t wear your hair like that. Those look unprofessional. Braids can never be classy. Sound familiar?

For years, those are some of the expressions women of color have had to endure when it comes to hairstyling. Especially, when wearing their tresses in the form of braids. However, Allure magazine is diving into a different mindset and space. One where people can try to open and stretch their thoughts or opinions to see not only the beauty, but versatility of curls, waves, coils and kinks.

Allure March 2018

This week Allure excitedly revealed their upcoming March 2018 edition and shared a fitting quote. The magazine says,

“Presenting our March 2018 issue, The Culture of Hair, starring Lupita Nyong’o. In addition to talking to Nyong’o about her relationship with her hair; we also gave her and  hairstylist, Vernon Francois total freedom over her looks.

‘Lupita and I wanted to show that coily or kinky hair has many strengths and can be worn in lots of different ways. [Thus] celebrating its beauty and versatility.’ says Francois.”

Black Girl Fitness: Couple Workout Routine -Halle Berry Demonstrates!

Couple Workout Routine

Summer will be here before we know it. Don’t let warmer weather, bikinis, maxi dresses, and short-shorts catch you off guard. Get ready to showcase your best body ever, by doing a hard-hitting couple workout routine right now!

Black Girl Fitness: Couple Workout Routine -Halle Berry Demonstrates

Actress Halle Berry is still spilling all of her fitness secrets. Her latest? Working out with your SO. Nevertheless, why should you give this type of workout a try? Berry says,

“Today is all about the couple workout. It’s often easier to workout with a partner. A partner holds you accountable so you won’t quit halfway through. A partner can spot you so you don’t injure yourself; but most of all, working out with a partner just makes it all more fun!

Here are two simple exercises you and your boo can do at home. It’s a plank with a squat and each person gets a workout at the same time. Squats for butt and legs, and plank for core and upper body. Do 20 reps for 10 sets. If you’re just beginning, do 10 reps for 5 sets.”

Couple Workout Routine -Halle Berry Demonstrates

Halle Berry is one of the hottest women ever. Therefore, if that is her advice we are taking it! Get like Halle and try out this couple workout routine. Here is how to do it with photo reference!

Couple Workout Routine Couple Workout Routine

One partner gets into plank position, while the other stands behind in a deep squat with feet slightly wider than shoulder width apart; while holding the planker’s feet. The squater should then stand up with knees slightly bent. This is the start position.

From the start position, the planker continues to hold their position while the squater squats down. Perform 20 reps for 10 sets, or if just beginning, do 10 reps for 5 sets.

Once all the sets are completed, switch positions. The squater moves to the plank, while the planker becomes the squater. Then perform the same amount of reps again. Want a major challenge? Instead of reps just do as many reps as you can do before the burn becomes too much.

Couple Workout Routine Couple Workout Routine

 

Couple Workout Routine

Working out solo is cool, but don’t miss out on all the benefits that working out as a couple can accomplish! While there are SO many, here are five awesome benefits that may just convince you to give Halle’s tip a try.

Keeping Things Fresh– Sometimes after awhile working out can seem a little stale. Used to the same walls, scenery, moves and music. However, add a partner and now its a party! Suddenly, exercising will feel less like the norm thanks to the addition of a new dynamic. Plus, you may find yourself working even harder just to impress your babe.

Stronger Bond– You both will be sticking closer than a pair of atoms. Science and research is showing that couples that work out together experience a stronger bond with each other which leads to a strengthened relationship. Awwww!

I Challenge You to a Duel!- Without swords of course, unless you both are into that kind of thing or fencing. Nevertheless, a couple workout routine provides an avenue for healthy competition. As both partners challenge each other to workout harder or longer, better results can be experienced and achieved.

Mama I’m a Cheerleader– Everyone needs encouragement sometimes. The great thing is when you are working out with your love you have a built in cheerleader. Someone with your best interests in mind that also wants to see you succeed. Both of you can “woo” and “you got this” each other to more tone bodies.

Catching FeelingsAnd Z’s– As we already established you and the boo will be falling for each other more. However, by getting your fitness on you both will also enjoy better sleep and less stress. Score!
