Arianne Suggs March 28, 2018March 28, 2018Leave a Comment

All we can say is, “WOW!” The entire Cushnie et Ochs Fall 2018 runway show was a tantalizing affair; however, the closing look stole the attention of everyone in attendance. The vibe, the details, the unspoken allure. Every element just works and brings a certain je ne sais quoi to a collection that is already flawless.

Fashionable Mention: Cushnie et Ochs Faceted Crystal Mesh Gown

Hereith Paul, you are a lucky girl! Paul is the gorgeous model that had the honor and pleasure, of wearing the final closing Cushnie et Ochs look. The dress is a showstopper… Glitzy, spell-binding and more gleam than the night sky on a clear night.

Photographs of this garment did not even come close to doing it justice. The gown gets its bling appeal thanks to a little help from Swarowski. This dress in particular incorporates dazzling, strategically placed Swarowski Drop Crystals.

The crystalized look is currently a favorite among designers for the fall 2018 season. We spotted the trend at not just Cushnie et Ochs, but during a number of other fall runway shows. We noted Swarowski elements and jewelry were utilized during collections for: Alexander Wang, Brandon Maxwell, Jason Wu and Rosie Assoulin.

Nevertheless, we foresee the Cushnie et Ochs Faceted Crystal Mesh Gown being a red carpet favorite. Immediately, upon seeing it all 1966 staff felt that this is a design that Queen Beyonce would absolutely dominate in at any event. We are reminded of her sheer, embellished gown that she wore to the 2015 Met Ball (see below). This is so her style and one that would land any starlet with an amazing pair of legs on the Best Dressed List. All eyes on you RiRi!

Coffee for Hair- Say Hello to More Growth and Healthier Looking Hair!

Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 24, 2018March 23, 2018Leave a Comment

Make that cup of Joe pay major hair dividends! Think more shine, more growth and even more strength! If any of those are what you are striving towards, have you ever considered adding coffee to your hair care routine? At first, using coffee for hair techniques and treatments can initially seem a little strange. However, the numerous benefits will easily have you rethinking your stance. So then, allow us to briefly introduce you to the exciting world of coffee hair care!

Coffee for Hair- Why Use It?

For one thing, it’s all natural baby! Hair products that incorporate harsh ingredients eventually lead to strands having harsh looks. For instance, just a few of the ingredients to watch out for in popular hair care items include:

•Sodium Lauryl Sulfate– Has been connected to causing skin rashes, eye damage, depression and even cancer.
•Potassium Sorbate– This ingredient has been linked to inducing skin as well as organ system toxicity.
•Dimethicone– This form of silicone can cause the skin and scalp to be not only drier, but become irritated.
•Triclosan– Is known for irritating the eyes, skin and lungs. In some cases has also been the cause of organ disruption.
•Polysorbates, Cocamidopropyl Betaine and Phenoxyethanol– These ingredients have the ability to cause irritation of the skin, eyes or lungs.

See the importance of using natural hair care items? While of course, everyone is different and various ingredients may have an affect on some and not on others. It is always safer to utilize products with ingredients that will do the most good instead of the most harm.

Coffee for Hair- Additional Benefits

Besides, being more delicate on your strands and body, coffee comes with a host of other amazing benefits! Let’s quickly discuss a few of them. You may be shocked!

When it comes to hair the number one searched hair issue is usually how to grow more hair. As a result, coffee is like a superhero to the hair strand. This is because caffeine helps to stimulate the follicle’s ability to produce hair.

Furthermore, this little benefit is extremely important since the quality as well as length of one’s hair greatly depends on the health of the hair follicles. To help in this area, coffee stimulates the roots thus improving not only their structure, but their growth. Due to this coffee can do much to prevent hair loss and restore hair growth.

Another wonderful benefit is that coffee is very rich in phytosterols. What can these do for you? Phytosterols awesomely promote moisture retention and absorption! Moisture is not just important for healthy hair in general, but can help prevent dryness, damage, breakage or lack of hair growth.

Coffee for Hair- Invest in Coffee Oil

Ever heard of Coffee hair oil? Some have, some have not. However, if luxurious looking tresses is your aim, purchasing this natural hair product will help you achieve that very result. Coffee hair oil has been credited with the ability to increase blood circulation to the scalp and stimulation of hair roots. Remember, a healthy scalp equals healthy hair growth. If want something more traditional, but just as good try Obsessed Hair Oil. Celebrities swear by this oil!

Earlier we mentioned how coffee is not among the widely known top 12 harmful hair care product ingredients. Which is also why many healthy hair consumers love just how coffee hair oil is made. It is derived directly from coffee grounds.

Oftentimes coffee grounds are just easily and simply dried and then infused into an oil to be used on the hair. While coffee hair oil can be purchased already bottled and ready for use. Some choose to make the oil at home themselves. This ensures that there’s been no funny business with the inclusion of extra unnecessary ingredients that may be bad for the hair.

Coffee for Hair- How to Make Coffee Hair Oil

Want to know how to make coffee hair oil? We thought you might! We asked several hair professionals to give us a simple DIY (do it yourself) recipe. Here’s what they recommend:

DIY Recipe #1

1. Combine 1 cup of Olive Oil with 3/4 cup of ground coffee and place the mixture into a jar.

2. Put the lid on the jar securely then give the jar a good shake. Make sure that you shake the jar well.

3. Keep the jar in a dry place from 1 week up to a month.

4. Strain the oil from the mixture using a cheesecloth. Enjoy using your oil!

**Quick Notes: What is a cheesecloth? A cheesecloth is a loose-woven, gauze-like cloth made out of cotton that’s used in cooking or making cheese. They can be bought in store or online. For instance, Target as well as Walmart sells these cloths for less than $3.

DIY Recipe #2

1. Pour 8 tablespoons of Coconut or Olive oil into a pan and add in 4 tablespoons of ground coffee beans.

2. Heat the mixture over low heat for half an hour or up to a couple hours. Stir occasionally.

3. Strain out the oil using a coffee filter or cheesecloth. Once again, enjoy!

**BEAUTY BONUS! Time to think outside of the strand! Besides being used as an oil for the hair, did you know you could also use this as a body or face oil? Use it to help tighten skin, prevent wrinkles and reduce the appearance of cellulite. This bit of beauty news can be summed up in one word… Amazing!

Coffee for Hair – Our Final Thoughts

As one can see, coffee is not just great in a cup. It can be used to give new life to strands as well as the skin. Therefore, try out these coffee for hair treatment ideas and experience their extensive benefits. You may just find they are just the right temperature (wink, wink).

Fixing Hair Shrinkage and Loss of Length Due to Tangling With Oil

Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 24, 2018March 16, 2018Leave a Comment

We get it, hair shrinkage is the pits. It can almost feel like your hair look is being short changed. Tresses start off stretched and closer to full length only to draw up like a clam in a shell. Plus, don’t even get us started on detangling. If only there is something one can do to fix both issues simultaneously.

Hair Shrinkage and Loss of Length Due to Tangling

Well, hold on, because there is an option! Do you know what it is? If you guessed hair oil then you would be absolutely correct. Now allow us to quickly tell you why.

First off, what exactly is shrinkage? This is the result of the hair drawing up due to the inability to maintain moisture. The strand can literally “chase” after hydration.

You see as the hair dries it normally dries at the ends first. Meaning our roots dry slower than our strands’ ends. As the hair dries it “draws up” in order to get closer to the moisture still present at the roots.

Get the picture? If you do, then most likely you can also glean a fix to this common hair problem. Nevertheless, if you don’t we’re going to tell you the secret anyway.

Combating Hair Shrinkage and Loss of Length

One the simplest ways to retain moisture in the hair is to seal it in so that it can’t escape. So then, what is a proper sealant? Here is the best hair oil that accomplishes this with ease.

The oil acts like a fence that moisture can’t get over. As we like to say think of it like a puppy and a high barrier. Everything stays nicely and safely inside.

Since moisture can stay along the entire strand the hair does not need to necessarily draw up towards any hydration. Plus, hair oil or creams add more weight to strands. This allows gravity to also do it’s job to keep tresses going downward than up.

Fixing Loss of Length Due to Tangling

So then, now that the cat is out of the bag on how to combat shrinkage. You may be wondering about the second half of this article’s title. How does shrinkage play into tangling?

Simple. Shrinkage causes knots and tangles. The more coil-y the texture, the higher the shrinkage and in turn opportunity for more tangles to be formed.

Nonetheless, hair does not have to be curly or wavy to hair issues with tangling. Straighter textures can also be affected by this issue. Also, dry hair can cause split ends and knotting at the ends. By the way, that is a good indicator that your hair can use a trim; if hair ends can not be combed or passed through with fingers easily.

The best way to fix this? You guessed it, hair oil. You’re a quick study! (wink, wink).

Hair Oil- Combating Hair Shrinkage and Loss of Length Due to Tangling

Nevertheless, the easiest way to detangle tresses while preventing shrinkage is to apply coconut or jojoba oil (or both together) to your hair. Heat the oil(s) up and apply the warm concoction to your strands and scalp. Then use your fingers to gently detangle any knots.

You will find the oil will provide a nice element of “slip” to your tresses. Thus, making detangling not only easier, but less of a pain. Literally.

In order to gain the most benefits, hair oil should be used in conjunction with your other styling products. If you use creams, leave-ins and the like, continue to. Moreover, cream moisturizers should be apart of your hair shrinkage arsenal. When these are used along with oil not only are curls/waves more defined, but will experience less draw up.

So then, there you have it. You CAN combat shrinkage as well as tangles. The fix is natural and extremely useful… hair oil.

Winter Fashion 2018- Chanel Winter 2018 Fashion Show

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 14, 2018March 13, 2018Leave a Comment

Hansel and Gretel eat your heart out! When it comes to fashion week no one quite does it like fashion house, Chanel. From the spell-binding couture to the equally visually pleasing venues, the luxury fashion label knows how to leave its fashion show attendees aching for more! For the Chanel Winter 2018 -2019 collection, Karl Lagerfeld enchanted his audience with luxe woven garments set against a forest backdrop.

Winter Fashion 2018- Chanel Winter 2018 Fashion Show

Why is this show in particular making waves throughout the industry? Well, during fashion week you expect at least three things. A catwalk, glorious designs and a magnificent show. Chanel did all three with stylish hands tied in back.

In answering the long held question what would you take with you if you were stranded in a desert or forest; Chanel’s winter show made the answer abundantly clear… any of their fashions! Chanel’s dazzling designs cast their spell with a color palette that lines up perfectly with the fall and winter seasons. We observe stylish tops, skirts, jackets and accessories all peppered with tones reminiscent of the changing of the leaves’ colors during autumn.

The colors are warm yet sharp. Defined yet welcoming. Your eye is drawn in immediately but is able to take in every look’s detail in it’s entirety.

Chanel Winter 2018 Fashion Show

Your outfit may be the cake, but a proper handbag is the cherry on top! Chanel’s Winter 2018 handbags are trendy with an original edge. There are big bags, small bags, crossovers and of course, totes.

One element we love is the matchy-matchy look. Several handbags were twinning with their accompanying ensembles. Literally, tweed met tweed and hues met the exact same color(s). Whatever fabric was used to craft a couture design that same high end material was used for the look’s very own handbag.

This is great for the person who enjoys a perfect match. Or for someone who may struggle with pairing accessories with their clothing. Either way, Chanel has things covered.

One other detail that is certainly worth mentioning before moving on is Chanel’s use of the double bag. Have you ever needed two bags just to carry your essentials for the day? Well, Chanel wants you to know you are not alone. During the fall/winter runway show a model hit the catwalk with not one bag, but two swinging from her shoulder.

One smaller shoulder handbag layered over a larger tote made up the completed look. While carrying two bags may not become the next big thing. It is fun to see a neat way on how to make this style dilemma work in the best way.

Chanel Winter 2018 Fashion Show – Accessories

Hair was kept simple but was embellished with luxe, crystallized hair accessories. Other outfit additions we noticed included scarves, leggings/tights, chain belts as well as logo/name earrings and necklaces. Moreover, with the earrings we noticed Chanel indulged in the super hot uneven earrings trend. To rock it all you have to do is wear two different size earrings. They match but one is always super longer than the other. Thus making the finished result stylish, yet dramatic.

Furthermore, gleaming details were not just noticed in the accessories. Various boots, tights and pants all had shimmery elements. Proving that winter fashion does not need to be drab like the season’s weather. You can easily spice things up by utilizing sparkle.

Lastly, one other piece we loved was the fingerless gloves! Very Material Girl meets punk. The fun gloves came in different lengths; both regular hand glove size as well as elbow length. Certainly, a design that easily garners attention without trying too hard.

Well loves that is our fashion show recap. Keep scrolling to see even more runway shots!

Heal Your Hair! Why Use Obsessed Hair Oil

Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 24, 2018March 13, 2018Leave a Comment

Hey there hair lovers! As the Editor of 1966 Magazine I am constantly bombarded with new, amazing products to try. In recent times there has been a little bit of backlash when it comes to product reviews and opinions. Much of the dismay has been caused by social media which has every famous face promising that the fountain of youth involves teas, waist trainers, teeth whitening kits and other products that have actually turned out to be ineffective. However, I have personally used Obsessed Hair Oil for months and I can absolutely confirm that the results are real and will help heal your hair!

Heal Your Hair! Sherry’s Life Obsessed Hair Oil

In order to help you appreciate the importance of hair oil when it comes to your haircare regimen; I would like to share just a few of the numerous benefits. The right hair oil can:

•Stimulate hair growth.

•Add shine and luxurious luster to strands.

•Penetrate deep inside follicles in order to strengthen and condition.

•Help tresses to become softer.

•Fight against one of the biggest hair enemies: breakage.

•Aid in the prevention of split ends.

Nevertheless, did you notice that I said you would need the “right hair oil?” Go to any beauty supply store and you will easily spot a plethora of hair oils on the shelves. Yet, many of those available are NOT all natural and are filled with several other chemicals that are completely unnecessary.

To prove it, next time pick up one of these products and flip it over. Review the ingredients list and notice that the actual advertised hair oil is way down towards the bottom. Why so far down on the list? If this hair oil is supposed to be this oil, then what’s with all this other junk? Makes you wonder what you have been putting on your hair huh?

Now I’m not saying every last oil on the market does this. However, you may be shocked at how many do.

Obsessed Hair Oil – My Experience

For me summertime is everything! The sun is out, beaches are packed, there’s outdoor concerts and don’t even get me started on all the pool parties. However, I normally also have one glaring hair problem to contend with as well. Dandruff.

Like the WORST thing you can have show up when you’re among crowds. No, that’s not salt from my hot dog or saved snow from my freezer to keep me cool. It’s ugly, horrible flakes on my scalp.

Since I was a little girl, come “fun in the sun” time my hair and scalp would resemble the Sahara. I don’t know why, it just always does. Over the years I found a good hair oil is almost as good as having Cinderella’s godmother’s wand.

Nevertheless, that’s where Obsessed Hair Oil comes into the picture. Like a knight in shining armor it swooped in and battled with my foe. For days I watched on as my captor slowly lost strength and its grip upon my soul (Can you tell I was born to be a writer? Wink, wink).

Obsessed Hair Oil – Why It Worked

Let me just cut to the chase. It worked wonders due to the amazing combination of oils utilized. For instance, Obsessed Hair Oil contains peppermint oil. This particular oil has been proven to help with improving the condition of dryness. Did it? Oh yes, my friends it did!

Not only did my own hair in general become softer, all traces of dandruff completely vanished. Moreover, it has not returned. Obsessed Hair Oil also contains JoJoba Oil and Rosemary Oil. Together these oils produce a specially formulated, supercharged hair oil that effectively conditions hair from the inside, out.

My hair is healthier, like I can literally see and feel the difference. Furthermore, it’s grown an inch in just about a month and a half. I realize everyone’s growth is Give it a try. Obsessed Hair Oil retails for $18.50. In a future post I promise to give you another update on my hair journey!

Hubert de Givenchy -Founder of Givenchy Dies at 91, Life & Legacy

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 12, 2018March 12, 2018Leave a Comment

Another icon is gone. Fashion visionary, Vale Hubert de Givenchy noted for dressing some of the world’s most famous women; passed away at age 91. Hubert’s designs were widely celebrated for not only their sophistication, but divine elegance.

Hubert de Givenchy -Founder of Givenchy Dies at 91, Life & Legacy

The French luxury couture designer was born in 1927. In future years, the couturier would come to redefine the modern woman’s form of attire. Givenchy often referred to himself as “the eternal apprentice.” However, his masterful creations since the start of his fashion house in 1952; clearly demonstrated his true skill, talents and pure genius.

Furthermore, Givenchy truly understood the female form. His luxe and dazzling frocks always fit a woman’s body in the most desirable as well as alluring way. His motto? Hubert once said, “The dress must follow the body of a woman, not the body following the shape of the dress.”

This understanding led to Givenchy being highly sought after by the Hollywood elite. As a result, Hubert dressed some of the most influential women of the 20th century. Ladies of Givenchy included Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Jackie Kennedy and Grace Kelly. Men too experienced the Givenchy treatment, such as the legendary David Bowie.

Hepburn who wore Givenchy couture in some of her biggest roles is quoted as stating, “His clothes are the only clothes in which I am completely myself. He is far more than a couturier, he is a creator of personality… I’m as dependent on Givenchy as some Americans are on their psychiatrist.” Her sentiments sum up what numerous starlets, models and women around the world have felt in Hubert’s pieces.

To this day, women around the world keep a LBD in their wardrobes. The LBD, or Little Black Dress is a classic, iconic garment that never goes out of style. Seasons come and go. Trends see the light of day then quickly vanish, but the little black dress continues to command the spotlight.

Who of us can forget actress, Audrey Hepburn’s black dress from Breakfast at Tiffany’s? The actress also can be seen in Givenchy designs in her films Sabrina and Funny Face. Moreover, in 1954 Audrey put down Hubert in her contracts as the designer who would design all of her film costumes. Ultimately, the move that sealed designer and muse as lifelong friends and workmates.

Even though Hubert de Givenchy made the LBD (little black dress) look so easy to pull off, he made it starkly clear it is not. In regards to the look Givenchy states, “The little black dress is the thing to realize, because you have to keep it simple.” Listen to him fashion lovers, less can be oh so more.

Besides his beautiful gowns Hubert also changed how the fashion world viewed separates. A blouse, jacket, skirt, or trouser could produce a plethora of stylish combinations. Limitless outfit choices instead of one. His concept of mixing and matching separates truly revolutionized the industry.

Hubert de Givenchy – Letter From Our Editor

Hello Readers,

Like you, I am also deeply saddened by this unfortunate news regarding the great Hubert de Givenchy. Growing up, his designs were one of the first to make me want to shed my Tomboy ways and hop into a black dress!

I also remember fondly talking about the glamorous old Hollywood with my grandmother. Not just the bright lights, triple threat talent or fascinating productions; but the fashion! The undeniable breath-taking couture that was chic, high-end, mesmerizing yet sexy all in one.

It was my grandmother as well as my mother that exposed me to a few classic films that left me wishing I was old enough to have a credit card. Since if I had had one, a lot of the available funds would of went to Givenchy couture. Therefore, maybe it was a good idea that could not qualify (LOL).

Being a fan of the fashion house, I was moved to write this feature. Not just to tell the impact that Givenchy had on me, but the impact He and his label left on the world. Truly an industry leader that will be missed. Below you will find a complilation of a few of my favorite Givenchy moments of all time. Thank you for taking time out to read this post and I hope you enjoy the photos (Note: Modern looks by John Galliano and Alexander McQueen).

Sincerely,

Arianne XOXO

Hubert de Givenchy – Final Words to Live By

“Luxury is in each detail.”

“All a woman needs to be chic is a raincoat, two suits, a pair of trousers and a cashmere sweater.”

“Hair style is the final tip-off whether or not a woman really knows herself.”

“To have style is to have a feeling for what is currently fashionable, and still to simultaneously remain true to oneself.”

Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 24, 2018March 12, 2018Leave a Comment

When most girls decide to dye their strands normally they opt for a more “routine” hair color look. Maybe highlights, Beyonce platinum blonde or perhaps supermodel Jasmine Tookes ombré. However, nowadays it seems like it does not get any cooler or stylish than bold or multi-tone dyed hair. As a result, hair lovers begin to wonder what’s on deck next in the world of hair color. Therefore, what is trending for 2017? Three words y’all: Pink Pastel Hair from Adore Hair Color.

2017 Hair Color Trend: Pastel Pink Hair

Remember last year when gray hair hit the scene? That trend took off like wildfire and pretty soon we all looked like a super glam great grandma. The same momentum is occurring with “on Wednesdays we wear pink” tresses. Especially among celebrities.

Nicki Minaj debuted the pink pastel hair style with her now infamous down to there hair length. Stylist Tokyo Stylez also got down with pink gradient locks that starts at the roots. Moreover, Blac Chyna switched up the game by flipping script with pink pastel tips. Who’s look do you love the most out these chic triplets?

Quick Tips for Maintaining Pastel Pink Hair

It’s all fun and games until your awesome bubblegum tone hair looks a wee bit less popping. So then, how can you keep your pastel pink hair looking great longer? Here are a few pro tips!

Prep Strands– A month before your dye job, take an honest look at your hair. Is it strong and healthy? If not, you could be in for a rude awakening. Hair dye unfortunately puts hair damage on blast. If your hair is dry or weak your resulting hair shade will emphasize it. Therefore, aim to start your hair color journey with a healthy head of hair. Perform deep conditioning treatments a few weeks before to make sure your hair color will look its absolute best.
Go Pro– Money is tight these days, but don’t skimp on your hair. Box dyes will give you a look but only a professional colorist can give you the best quality pastel pink hair color. Also, in order to reach such a tone usually a pre-lightening step is involved. Do you know how to do that? If not, it’s highly recommended to just make a hair appointment.
Space Out– Try your best to really space out your wash days. Shampoo strips hair color and makes it fade. So then, always be wary of products containing sulfates or alcohol- two enemies of hair color. It’s best to utilize color-safe and specially color formulated shampoos in order to maxamize the length of a hair dye job.
