Hang on tight fashion loves because our Christina Milian Attends Live by Night Premiere in Custom Pedram Couture feature is simply HOT!

Christina Milian Attends Live by Night Premiere in Custom Pedram Couture

Push all the way through Christina! Milian was in attendance last night for the premiere of Live by Night. Live by Night is a film that is directed as well as stars Oscar winner, Ben Affleck. The film is receiving major buzz due to the fact Ben’s directorial success Argo was such a huge hit. Many believe that Live by Night will have the same magic and amazing story telling that Affleck is fully capable of presenting.

Nevertheless, the premiere brought out all the stars which included Zoe Saldana and singer Miguel. Both Zoe and Miguel do star in the upcoming film. Moreover, Miguel is receiving tons of praise for his work in Live By Night and by all accounts his character’s cuban accent is beyond on point!

Anyway, loves we digress, back to the fashion at hand! Milian’s floor-length gown is divine. The custom Pedram Couture sparkled and illuminated the carpet as Milian gracefully floated by. Her look also included vintage earrings by Swag Vintage Designs.

Hair Notes: We love a perfectly executed updo! They are classy and elegant making them a must-have for a big event or night out. Christina’s lovely chignon was created by L.A. based hairstylist, Jameel Anderson who described the look as “silky” and “sleek.”

Black Beauty: MAC Cosmetics Star Trek Collection

Black Beauty: MAC Cosmetics Star Trek Collection

We sincerely hope that your makeup look for today lives long and prospers. Or at the very least, stays put perfectly in place for the next 12 hours. Nevertheless, our reason for the pop culture quote is due to something far grander… that is, if you are nerdy, trendy, a film buff, perhaps from another dimension or just simply a beauty fanatic like us. Cosmetics brand MAC has announced they are teaming up with Star Trek in order to design and release a MAC Cosmetics Star Trek Collection!

If you have ever dreamed of snatching up the beauty look worn by Lieutenant Uhura (played by Nichelle Nichols as well as Zoe Saldana) then you are about to be awakened to a very cool reality. MAC promises to develop a collection that fully captures the essence of the long-running television show and films. In regards to the MAC Cosmetics Star Trek Collection, MAC stated,

“Spanning half a century, [Star Trek] and its loyal fans cross generations, influencing ideas and aesthetics of gender, race and intergalactic potential. As the sci-fi saga continues, MAC and Star Trek’s latest cinema generation join forces in an exclusive makeup collaboration of cosmically charged hues.”

Sounds to us like a makeup collection of epic proportions! Fans and beauty lovers can anticipate the release of the MAC Cosmetics Star Trek Collection sometime this September. Nevertheless, there is one small catch to all this awesome news. The Star Trek x MAC collaboration will only be available in select markets. Therefore, if you are wanting to get your hands on this collection you still have time to pray that the makeup gods answer your humble cosmetic prayers and bring the fun line to a mall or beauty store near you.

Beauty Question: What Happens When Your Mascara Grows Old?

Beauty Question What Happens When Your Mascara Grows Old

Beauty Answer: It retires and goes to live a quiet life in the Bahamas, the end. If only our sense of humor had some truth to it in this regard but mascara doesn’t have such a fairy tale ending ladies. In fact, out of all the beauty products that you have in your possession, most likely your mascara will have the shortest shelf life. This means if you have had the same tube for awhile it may just be time to lay it to rest.

“Well, my mascara works just fine and I have had it for months!” We are sure there are some that feel that way but ponder on these next few facts. Mascara’s performance can be affected by outside temperatures so it is important to make sure your tube avoids extreme cold and heat. Moreover, over time mascara ingredients start to oxidize and degrade. Degradation means that compounds in the formula will break down and the product’s strength or intensity will fade.

Beauty Question What Happens When Your Mascara Grows Old2

Such degrading can lead to dried up formula and the causing of flakes. A look that you definitely do not want to rock in public. So then, how long should mascara be kept after purchase? Every three to four months your mascara should be tossed in favor of a newer one.

Geek is Chic, Beautiful Black Women That Are Down With 4 Eyes

Geek is Chic, Beautiful Black Women That Are Down With 4 Eyes7

Nerd, dork, geeky and so drop dead chic! In the days ruled by chalkboards and textbooks most ladies do not want to be known as quintessential “nerd.” However, geek chic style can still be fun, sophisticated and dare we say cool?

There are plenty of ways to allow your inner fashion nerd to escape and be free. Try incorporating a pair of stylish suspenders with a pleated skirt and button down shirt. Or, if you are a shoe fanatic ( it’s okay the first step is admittance LOL) pair your heels with socks and get to strutting your stuff. Moreover, you could also support your favorite comic character by rocking a tee with their image plastered all over it. Extra points if you plan on wearing top related to the Avengers or Wonder Woman. Nevertheless, there is one major accessory that most fashionista’s keep in their back pocket when they are ready be the chic geek.

To pull off this trendy look all a girl really needs is a fashionable pair of glasses. Take being called four eyes as a compliment, because girl you look great! Don’t worry about getting a pair with a prescription unless you need a little help in the eyesight department. A regular pair of bifocals will also not break the bank or set your wallet on fire making it a cheaper trend to indulge in freely.

Celebrities wear the geek chic trend more often than you think and not just to star-studded galas either! We have spotted nerd couture being worn by some of our favorite celebrity gals. Here are just a few:

See, whether you are going for a sophisticated and conservative or relaxed and edgy, a little nerdy flair can help to complete your look. Notice though for the most part the makeup on all the ladies was kept rather simple. With the exception of a pop of color via a red lip, a neutral makeup look will allow the focus to remain on the accessory (glasses). Moreover, let’s face it the glasses may hide all of your hard eye makeup work so if you want to add some beauty boldness it is best to pump up your lips instead.

How to Whiten Teeth Naturally

We are living in the age of the selfie so it is important that all T’s are crossed and I’s are dotted. Everyone has there own style when taking a pic for the Gram, FB, Snapchat or Twitter; but, one thing for sure is that we all want to look perfect. From our heads to our toes we must sparkle and shine like a superstar.

Speaking of sparkle…is your smile gleaming and beaming like it should? Coffee and various foods can leave teeth stained causing them to look yellow or dingy. Shine your pearly whites on up by applying a little baking soda right on your toothbrush and then brush your teeth like normal. Doing so will help whiten your teeth restoring them back to their old glamorous look.

Make Thin Hair Look Voluminous

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.

Zoe Saldana Wears Monique Lhuillier to David Letterman

Celebrities Visit "Late Show With David Letterman" - July 30, 2014

Zoe Saldana wore a sexy LBD (Little Black Dress) to a taping for Late Show with David Letterman. Her dress showcased her cute baby bump and the mommy-to-be even gave herself some height with some stunning pointed toe Jimmy Choo stilettos! We thought her heels jazzed up her ensemble just enough without being over-bearing. Shoes should compliment, not scream out their presence.
