For today’s Get Your Man Right we pulled a look from the Umit Benan Spring/Summer 2015 Collection. As you notice it has a clean preppy style to it but is a step up from “Carlton of Fresh Prince of Bel Air” to more of Will Smith’s character’s style thanks to the added color in the sweater, pushed up sleeves and backwards hat. If your boy enjoys dressing in a little more upscale fashion but doesn’t want to lose his cool this is the perfect ensemble for him.
As we sip our coffees all of us here at 1966 had to agree that is never too early for a little eye candy! One of Oklahoma City Thunder’s finest players stars in True Religion’s Spring/Summer 2015 ad campaign. We’ll gladly gaze upon Westbrook in tight pants while flexing for the camera any day.
True Religion’s chief executive officer David Conn spoke on the brand’s move to cast someone from the sports realm for their ad campaign. He explained that the “influence of sports on fashion has increased dramatically. Working with a pro athlete was a natural for us. A lot of players shop in our stores, and Russell is as well known for what he does on the court as what he wears at the press conference after the game.”
What do you think of Russell Westbrook’s new ad for True Religion and should sports as well as fashion continue to be married together? Talk all things fashion with us on our Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr or tweet us @1966magazine.
Photographer Bruce Weber captured a fine fashion moment! We loved the age range found in this campaign and always find group shots to be quite appealing. Every last lady in this campaign is working it emphasizing glamour is found in diversity.
When we saw Angela Bassett walk the red carpet at the 2015 NAACP Image Awards we about lost it!The woman literally stunned one and all in attendance with her beauty. It has been a few days now and we still can not get her hairstyle out of our hair obsessed minds.
Bassett’s blunt cut hairstyle that slightly as well as gracefully touched her shoulders had us doing back flips. The luminous sleek bob was sexy, sophisticated and every bit of Hollywood glamour. Tinseltown can eat their hearts out and we will be continuing to covet Angela’s tresses!

This year literally cause onlookers to have an intense reaction to your beauty! Scientists conducted a study showing that the color red causes people to react not only faster but more forcefully due to the emotions that ensue from gazing upon a rouge tone. Therefore, just from wearing the color red you could instantly become drop dead gorgeous.
Last week alone we spotted numerous stars wearing rouge lips ranging from shiny to matte versions. We are always fans of bold lip color so we decided to show off a few beauties who looked amazing in red. Enjoy the beauty inspiration!

Like fashion, sometimes us girls can find ourselves in a bit of a beauty rut. The same colors, techniques and products are applied day after day till you look in the mirror contemplating if what you really need is a new fashion style or haircut. Therefore, we say mix things up a little and live life on the beauty edge here and there!
Giambattista Valli’s Giamba Spring 2015 Fashion Show highlighted a very daring eyeliner look. The eyeliner literally floated above the models’ eyes. To pull off this look in the real world it is important to keep the rest of the face quite natural.
The eyeliner is really the focal point and should be left to stand out alone. During the show makeup artist Val Garland used a creme liner by M.A.C. to achieve this beauty look but cremes are not always long-lasting which could cause your eyeliner look to do a disappearing act as the day rolls by. Prevent this by using an eyeliner pencil so that the design will stay all day.

Hip hop artists for years have worn their denim a little on the big side. It has often been up to major debate as to whether pants should stay up or be acceptable to go a little south. Nevertheless, for their spring 2015 runway show DSQUARED showcased models wearing extra baggy denim. The look was very relaxed and upped the cool chic factor by being coupled with bright colors.

Half the country is freezing their rastafarian-nay-nays off (OMG wasn’t Cool Runnings an awesome movie!) and the other half is somewhat surviving on erratic weather. Here in California some days are typical warm Cali days and then the next day its raining. For those who need to keep warm but still want to look fresh and modern, try uniting the scarf and fur coat with a nice pair of pants or denim.
The shirt for this ensemble can be plain since it will be hidden by an quite large scarf. You will stay nice and warm with this couture combination yet look fashion forward. Remember scarves and fur coats can be bold all on their own; therefore, when adding accessories such as a handbag be sure to match it to one piece or the other in order to maintain cohesion.

Another hairstyle that we loved seeing float down the 2015 Grammys red carpet came from starlet Kat Graham. Kat wore her locks pulled back into a very sleek high chignon. Her bun included golden highlights which went very nicely with her skin tone.
Fashion Notes: Graham’s sheer gown was by Yanina Couture which she then accessorized with a clutch by Swarovski, AS29 earrings, Sophia Webster shoes and Carrera y Carrera rings.
