Besides a great story, readers will also be treated to some amazing visuals. The ending result shown on Forbes may be what editorial dreams are made of and then some. However, it did not come about without a few ups and downs. Los Angeles based fashion stylist, Kailani, reveals all. She states,

“Did a fun feature with Draya for Forbes. Thank you to the lovely ladies at SUISTUDIO for their impeccable women’s suiting options!

We did a thing yesterday! We trespassed on unauthorized property. We drove across a wild field. We lost the reflector to the little river… but we got some dope shots. So yeah we did a thing yesterday!”

Draya Michele for Forbes 2018

It certainly takes a village! As Kailani mentions, for the Forbes story Draya rocks various suits by fashion label, SUISTUDIO. However, then Michele infuses some causal fun into her look by wearing kicks with designer suits.

A nice fashion touch that proves that suits do not need to feel or look “stuffy.”  To complete her ensemble, Draya and her stylist incorporated shoes by Converse. Fab!

Savage x Fenty Lingerie: Launch Party

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

Talk about standing room only. The Savage x Fenty Lingerie launch party was filled to compacity. Literally, every which way you turned someone was there.

Paparazzi eagerly snapped away from the moment of the lady of the hour’s arrival. Every half second a, “Rihanna over here,” could be heard echoing along the line of cameras and smartphones.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

There was much to see. From racks carrying the long-awaited collection. To also large billboards  or graphic walls if you will; touting the company name and messages.

However, one of the biggest attractions of the night had to be the special effects feature. Leave it to Rihanna to launch a product in a way that is not only memorable, but futuristic.

While many choose to use actual models in order to showcase their merchandise. Rihanna went in the complete opposite direction. She used herself, multiplied.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie Savage x Fenty Lingerie Savage x Fenty Lingerie

Yes, via tech, Rihanna appeared before the party in the form of a hologram. The holographic Rihanna strutted across as well as up and down the stage in a mesmerizing, divine fashion.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie Savage x Fenty Lingerie

Savage x Fenty Lingerie: Launch Party (Continued)

Rih’s close friends were of course in attendance. Along with a slew of gorgeous models. However, it really came as no surprise. When you roll with the gorgeous Rihanna; you expect her squad to be “on the level.”

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

As industry and fans collided in order to celebrate Rihanna’s latest venture. Everyone’s RihMotions were clearly on edge. Being just hours away from the official launch; all invitees just wanted to see more and more of the final collection.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

Robyn did not disappoint. In time she floated over to racks of her intimate apparel and in order to showcase items to the cameras. With so much buzz in the air it was clear… the Badgal had done it again!

Savage x Fenty Lingerie: Getting the Goods

In case you were wondering… yes, this collection too is going to sale out. If you attempted to log on to the www.savagex.com site in order to get your shopping on; you may have been met with a little informative screen.

The “line” getting into the online store is a beast in itself. Rihanna is no stranger to selling out of her products, and fast, so that this time she is doing her best to keep things orderly.

When Fenty Beauty dropped the website literally crashed. Like TKO. Therefore, this time consumers can get to the website, but can not begin to shop until space is made within the store.

If there is absolutely no space or room, purchasers are added to an queue. An ingenious method to keep the site from crashing and burning.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

SavagexFenty Lingerie: Getting the Goods (Continued)

Another aspect of this queue that we like is the efficiency. Of course, you will receive an estimated wait time. However, you also do not need to wait around. You can close the window and your spot will be held for you.

For kicks and giggles we decided to test it out. Of course, fear initially gripped our bodies. Would our spot in line really be held for us? If there’s a glitch will we be booted to the bottom of the list?

Well, we had no reason to be afraid, because after closing out the window and returning; our spot in line was still there. WHEW! Also, a new window explaining that it was almost our turn to enter the store and if we wanted to leave the line we could.

Unfortunately, as much as we liked this process; it did not stop the site from running slow (most likely due to demand). Also, we were kicked out the store a couple times. Nevertheless, we like how things are being run thus far and look forward to FINALLY getting more sexy, savage-esqe gear.

Met Gala 2018: Over 20 Fascinating Facts and Fashion Controversy

Met Gala 2018

Met Gala 2018 stirred the high-end couture pot like no other fashion event before! Lines between art and religion blurred behind a backdrop of flashing lights and decadent red carpet flair. Celebrities and socialites radiantly posed for photogs; as they allowed their persona to interpret this year’s controversial theme.

Nonetheless, what happened behind the lens and paparazzi is nothing short of a miracle, (no pun intended). Here are the BTS (behind the scenes) stories and facts surrounding some of your favorite looks of the night!

Met Gala 2018 – Rihanna

Met Gala 2018

Sanctuary! Being a badgal, we do not expect Rih to ever play it safe or need fashion saving. Miss Fenty hit the masses with a one-two punch of iconic style. Chew on these Rihanna Met Gala ensemble tidbits:

Tons of Manpower: Laurie Brookins reveals, “Details on Rihanna’s Maison Margiela Artisanal look by John Galliano: A 3 piece ensemble of sculptural jacket and skirt over a bustier dress. All seafoam jacquard embellished with pearls and faux jewels. 250 hours to sew [and] 500 hours to embroider.” Goodness!

Met Gala 2018

Keeping It in the Family: Rihanna’s famed stylist, Mel Ottenberg, is no stranger to fashion royalty and mastermind, John Galliano. In regards to the renown designer Mel states, “John Galliano!!! The goat gave me my first job when I was a baby and designed this epic look for Rihanna tonight. Thank you John.”

Wave Like You Just Don’t Care: Yes, the fit was sick, but an outfit is nothing without great hair! Hairstylist, Yusef Williams ensured that Rih would dazzle from head to toe. In regards to Rih’s amazing hair look, Yusef says, “John Galliano is the inspiration of all inspiration. For this look, I wanted to go back in time and create this Vatican-homage, but with a single finger wave to make it feel modern and more avant garde.”

Met Gala 2018 – Rihanna (Cont.)

Met Gala 2018

They Nailed It: When you are Rihanna you most likely have a village working on your flawless look, right down to the nails! Nonetheless, have you ever wondered how celebs get those serious looking rhinestone and emblem nail designs to stay in place?

Well wonder no more, because we have learned the secret! Red Hot Nails aka Maria Salandra, spilled the deets on Fenty’s Met Gala 2018 nail design. RHN gushes, “It’s amazing to see your creativity come to life, especially if Badgalriri is the inspiration! Thank you again to Tammy Taylor Nails. I am so proud to have partnered with you for this event!

My mentor, my friend and guru of acrylic nails! Thank you to Swarowski for the crystals! The embellishments are secured to the nail with THE ONLY RHINESTONE gel I use, Diamond Gel by Apres Nail.” We are going to cop some stat!

Met Gala 2018 – Rihanna, More Facts on Facts on Facts

Take a Brow: Rihanna’s team does deserve a round of applause for everything they executed and on time no less. One thing that fans certainly noticed was Rih’s different eye brow look. If you guessed bleached brows then you would be correct!

Met Gala 2018

We got the lowdown from the brow genius himself, Damone Roberts! Damone reveals, “And then THIS happened! Rihanna at The Met Gala 2018. When Ri tells you to fly 3,000 miles from L.A. to N.Y; bleach her brows to blend into her skin and STILL have them sculpted to perfection… you do it!

All makeup by Fenty executed to perfection by Priscilla Ono. All brow makeup by Damone Roberts. Brow powder in “Ginger,” Brow Highlighter in “Stone Cold B*tch.” [Get them at] www.DamoneRoberts.com.”

Met Gala 2018 – Rihanna, More Facts on Facts on Facts (Cont.)

Met Gala 2018

Hats Away: Couture designer, John Galliano slayed Rihanna’s look during the first Monday of May’s festivities. However, her hat was a loaner. Say what?!

Yes, the verdict is in, Fenty’s now infamous papal, bejeweled hat; is a miter from Cardinal Timothy Dolan. Mister Dolan serves as head of New York’s Roman Catholic diocese.

In regards to loaning out a miter to the pop star, Timothy did confirm that Rihanna did not keep the garment. In fact in an interview with SiriusXM Dolan says, “The news said she was wearing a tiara. [Not correct]. She gave it back to me this morning… She was very gracious.”

Met Gala 2018 – Zendaya

Met Gala 2018

 

Chain Reaction: Let’s switch up gears in order to gab about another stylish doll! Zendaya Coleman was a starlet who to us, perfectly married the art behind the Gala theme with spellbinding couture. Daya rocked a stunning number designed by the Versace luxury label.

Regarding the design Versace states, “Knight in shining Versace. Zendaya in a Joan of Arc inspired, custom molded Atelier Versace look at the 2018 Met Gala. Featuring gunmetal chainmail embellished with Swarowski crystals, flowing into a feminine fully beaded silk chiffon skirt.”

Met Gala 2018

Such a Gem: Jewelry is an excellent way to add more drama to an ensemble. For her Versace Met Ball after party look; Zendaya wore jewels by Butani. Butani dishes that Daya wore their Butani Diamond and Titanium Hoop earrings. The luxury jewelry and watches brand also loaned diamond studs to fellow singer, Ariana Grande.

Met Gala 2018

Butani enjoys a long history of adding gleaming details to celebrity looks. This just year Butani has been spotted on Jennifer Hudson, actress Kiersy, Mary J. blige and Mariah Carey.

Met Gala 2018 – Tiffany Haddish

Doesn’t Matter If You’re Black or White: Now we are used to singer Janelle Monae’s monochromatic looks. However, Tiffany’s Met Ball outfit could not be ignored either! Haddish walked the red carpet in glittering design by Brandon Maxwell. Brandon revealed the inspiration behind the effortless look.

Met Gala 2018

Maxwell states, “Tiffany’s look was all about purity with a dash of the wild side. One of the very first things you notice when you meet Tiffany is how effortlessly fresh and beautiful she is; a very pure heart with most fun spirit.

Hand made in our studio in New York, she wears an ivory triple layer lapel twill robe with train. [As well as] hand beaded black pearl leopard pants on georgette.”

Met Gala 2018

What is georgette? In short it is a type of fabric. Named after the early 20th century French dressmaker Georgette de la Plante; georgette is a sheer, dull-finished crepe and lightweight fabric. It is made with highly twisted yarns even though originally it was made from silk.

Met Gala 2018 – Dress Up

Met Gala 2018

Tommy x HM: Don’t be fooled by rocks that they got, even celebrities at times dress up up in retailers that us mere mortals wear. For instance, several famous faces strutted the red carpet in custom designs by Tommy Hilfiger as well as H&M.

Met Gala 2018

Tommy dressed models, Joan Smalls and Winnie Harlow. While H&M had a busy night dressing actress Kiersy as well as models, Alek Wek and Jasmine Sanders.

Met Gala 2018

Met Gala 2018 – Controversy and Disgust

While there were those who praised Anna Wintour’s selection or subject of motif. Many others found it inappropriate and simply declasse. This year’s Met Ball theme was, Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.

Is this really far-fetched or something to be viewed as abominable? Well, throughout history religion has had its powerful display in the art realm. Renaissance anyone? During this popular and distinctive period art pieces often included religious scenes ranging from the birth of Jesus Christ to depictions of his human mother, Mary.

Met Gala 2018

However, paintings and sculptures are one thing. For many believers in God; fashion is an art that is a step too far. This is because fashion is about self-expression and can be manipulated or used as a vehicle to poke fun of something quite serious.

Met Gala 2018 – Controversy and Disgust (Cont.)

Quite a few felt as though the 2018 theme was only dreamt up as a publicity stunt. Nevertheless, here are a few other relative thoughts people had regarding the Gala’s theme and fashions.

“What a disgrace! Mocking religion to create controversy and bring the public’s attention. This is not fashion or art. This is a circus!”

“Super weird.”

“Horrible.”

“What is this? The met gala theme was basically Catholicism.”

“This is so weird lmao.”

“The worst!!!”

“Why why why?? Even if it horrible, and looks terrible, just because its HER, everyone is “OMG THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED TO HUMANITYYYY!! Why?”

“RIDICULOUS. This is no longer a gala but a circus.”

“I bet they wouldn’t make fun of other religions, but of course they chose the catholics because they won’t make a major fuss.”

“Awfully horrible.”

“So disrespectful.”

“Vatican is gonna be pissed.”

“It’s blasphemous.”

“Not nice. You guys how and why this theme? Have respect!”

Met Gala 2018 – Controversy and Disgust, Final Thoughts

Met Gala 2018

The Met Museum wants to put everyone at ease with their latest exhibit. The museum assures all that it is not a mockery; but a display of the undeniable connection between art and religious couture.

The Met Museum states,

“The exhibition will feature a dialogue between fashion and medieval art. From The Met Collection to examine fashion’s ongoing engagement with the devotional practices and traditions of Catholicism.

Heavenly Bodies on view from May 10 through October 8 at The Met Fifth Avenue and The Met Collection.”

Fashionable Mention: Alexander McQueen Jewelled Satchel in Dark-Rose

Alexander McQueen Jewelled Satchel

Got bag? We spied with with our couture eye; the Alexander McQueen Jewelled Satchel. A smaller masterpiece, but full of alluring style and detailing. How so?

Fashionable Mention: Alexander McQueen Jewelled Satchel in Dark-Rose

One thing that we absolutely love about this accessory, is it’s versatility. While some bags can only function one way; this particular design gives the wearer multiple options! Think various strap lengths as well as a plethora of styling finishes. Ranging from cross body to over the shoulder.

The Alexander McQueen label describes it’s hit handbag as follows:

“Jewelled satchel in dark-rose smooth calf leather. Features a gold finished four ring adornment encrusted with Swarowski crystals. Inside, the bag [contains] a black suede-effect lining, two main compartments and a zip pocket.

[Also] it has an adjustable leather and gold metal chain crossbody strap; which features 5 holes for different adjustable lengths. Bag can be worn multiple ways:

  • Hand held using the ring handle.
  • Hand held by doubling up the straps.
  • Alternatively, wear over the shoulder.
  • Wear cross body using the leather and chain straps.

[Furthermore] the Jewelled Satchel comes with brass hardware with an antique gold finish. The bag can accommodate most smartphones.”

Fashionable Mention: Alexander McQueen Jewelled Satchel in Dark-Rose -Closing Remarks

Alexander McQueen Jewelled Satchel

Not feeling the Dark-Rose tone? Well, the great thing about Alexander McQueen is that usually there are other delicious hues available. For this stunning bag you can also purchase it in classic black. Black never really goes out of trend; therefore, you will have a fab bag that will stand the test of fashion time.

Nevertheless, there is still one aspect of the Jewelled Satchel that we have not touched yet. The price. This satchel retails for 1,690 Euros or $2,190.

Savage x Fenty – Rihanna Lingerie Dropping May 11-EVERYTHING TO KNOW!

Savage x Fenty

Welp… didn’t she tell us she was? Rihanna is at it again to snatch every dollar out of our wallets (and wigs) with a “savage” lingerie line aptly named, Savage x Fenty! The brand is set to drop in just a few weeks on May 11. Right in time for those summer Baes and flings. Date night anyone?

Rihanna’s sassy intimates label takes its inspiration from her hit song, Needed Me. In the pre-chorus Rih can be heard singing, “But baby, don’t get it twisted. You was just another n@#ga on the hit list. Tryna fix your inner issues with a bad b$&ch. Didn’t they tell you that I was a savage.”

The savagery line took off like a wildfire since the song’s release back in March of 2016; and Rih continues to use it to not only further brand herself, but also her stylish merchandise. Savage which can refer to someone being stinging, fierce or ravening; is certainly fitting to the image of the world’s favorite Badgal as well as her future collection of lingerie.

Savage x Fenty – Rihanna Lingerie Dropping May 11… EVERYTHING TO KNOW

However, what is the connection between Fenty’s video and intimate apparel? Well, in the Needed Me music video Rihanna famously wore a number of chic styles. The one that stuck out in everyone’s fashion mind, was an insanely gorgeous light blue Italian silk organza long couture robe with matching bottoms. Nonetheless, was Rihanna here hinting at a future lingerie collection in this video?

Savage x Fenty

In all honesty, there is a pretty good hunch to think that she was. Fenty enjoys a long history of dropping hints at her upcoming releases. For instance, at the Grammy Awards in 2017 Rihanna donned jewelry from her luxury Chopard collaboration collection way before it hit the market.

Savage x Fenty

Also, more recently, Robyn gave the world Wild Thoughts in her 2018 Grammys performance with DJ Khaled. Besides wearing a designer ensemble by Adam Selman; the singer also glowed thanks to her Fenty Beauty Body Lava. The performance was in January of 2018 while Body Lava’s release was in the following April.

Savage x Fenty

Rihanna may be very slick with her hints, but the fact remains whether people pick up on them or not; they are still going to purchase whatever Rih makes when it finally comes to fruition. However, last word, on that light blue robe in the Needed Me video. Want it? It’s by Rosamosario and it’s called the Cosmic Love Long Robe. With sizing that ranges from XS to XL. There are still some of these robes currently in stock and will cost you 1,570 euros or $1,910. Your welcome.

Savage x Fenty – Rihanna Lingerie Dropping May 11

So then, what’s in store when it comes Savage x Fenty? Oh you know, just everything in order to make any heart you desire race! Rihanna is already giving a saucey preview of what’s to come. Online the music icon shared a few posts teasing the intimates brand.

Savage x Fenty

Furthermore, in one particular promo photo Rihanna lays out on a mirrored platform in a little red and white printed number with cut-out detailing. The bodysuit is also equipped with an underwire. This is music (pun intended) to the ears of all women who enjoy plenty of support as well as those apart of the itty-bitty chest committee that love having a nice boosting effect.

This sexy design proves that Rihanna is once again seriously thinking about her market. Like her cosmetics brand, Robyn only wants to sell not only what her customers want, but what they also really need. Whether well endowed, or small and perky Rihanna wants to ensure her intimates brand makes you feel absolutely alluring.

Additionally, Miss Fenty would also like fans to know that the brand will be inclusive. Sizing will have an amazing range. Therefore, if you are nervous about finding something that fits, you do not have to be worried.

Savage x Fenty (Cont.)

Savage x Fenty

Ready to lace up? Yup… the brand will also host plenty of lacy garments. A pair of lacy bottoms have additionally hit the online sneak peek train. Moreover, Rihanna is super excited to share all of her designs real soon.

The Work artist posted on social stating, “Bet ya didn’t know it’s National Lingerie Day; got a lil’ treat for my ladies… Savage x Fenty is coming to you worldwide on May 11th! Exclusively on SAVAGEX.com!

Wave Those Toothbrushes! Christina Milian’s Cornrows Style and Baby Hairs

Cornrows Style

Thank you Brandon Almengo! Brandon is the man aka photographer behind one of Christina’s latest photo shoots. For this particular visual the singer sports a cornrows style and some seriously LAID baby hairs. We are totally hair crushing on this look and Christina is making us want to rock them from A.M. to P.M.! (Old school Milian song reference kiddos).

Christina Milian’s Cornrows Style and Baby Hairs

For several seasons now, the cornrows style as well as baby hairs have become more en vogue. Not to say that these hairstyles have not been “around” or trendy, especially within black culture. It is just that now everyone and their mama as well as all of mainstream pop culture is getting down them too. Literally, you can’t scroll the Gram timeline or Explore page without seeing it. Therefore, if you are looking for a style that keeps giving, you have found it.

Cornrows Style

Nonetheless, if you want to learn how to execute a look properly it’s best to look toward the source right? Therefore, who was the mastermind behind this glamorous hairstyle for Christina? Naima Lewis (@bellacheveux on instagram) is the stylist that completed the cornrows style on Ms. Milian! Lewis’ artistry just goes to prove that natural hairstyles can bring the drama and je ne sais quoi as much as any other hair look.

Furthermore, we also love this hairstyle because it’s a chic protective style. If you are trying to grow out your hair or maintain length this hair look will help shield your strands from harm. Also, there is so much freedom and room to create one-of-a-kind versions. As a result, you could steal Christina Milian’s cornrows style or you can design one with your own personal flair. It’s all up to you!

Cornrows Style

Don’t know how to cornrow hair? Girl… that used to be us! However, practice makes perfect and if you get to learning the skill now this hairstyle could be yours very soon! Here is one of our favorite video tutorials. It’s short and to the point. Plus, it really zooms in there so that you can get the technique down pact.
