Jourdan Dunn’s Maybelline Vogue 125 Anniversary Makeup Look- The Face

We thought it would make life a lot easier if we broke down this look into three parts. We’ll kick things off with the face in general then dive right into how to get her dazzling eyes. Lastly, we’ll tell you exactly how to finish the look off designed by makeup artist, Hila Karmand. Dunn’s entire look was created using Maybelline cosmetics. Therefore, all you have to do is pick up a few of their cool products and you’re ready to glam. So let’s get started!

Face

Use fit me concealer under the eyes to correct and conceal dark circles. Also use it on the bridges of the nose and bow of the lip to highlight. Next, using a concealer brush, buff a small amount of Fit Me Foundatte Matte + Poreless into the skin for a flawless, smooth base. Finally, contour and highlight using Master Strobe stick for the ultimate glow.

Next up are the eyes. We will keep it completely ninety-nine plus one with you…There are quite a few steps but you can do it dolls!

Eyes

Set your base with Fit Me Concealer all over the lids and pat with fingers to take excess away. Apply NEW Expert Wear Mono Eyeshadow in ‘Forest Green’ as the base color of the lid. Next, blend in Expert Wear Mono Eyeshadow in ‘Night Sky’ from the outer corner. Blend the two colors together to create a gradient effect.

Add a touch of Expert Wear Mono Eyeshadow in ‘Gold School’ to the inner corner of the eye for an extra pop! Next, line the eye with NEW Curvitude Liner (coming soon!) to create a sharp cat eye. Then soften the water line using Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner and Expert Wear Mono Eyeshadow in ‘Night Sky’ on the lower lash line. Finally, use NEW Bigshot Mascara to enhance lashes.

Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show

Arianne Suggs February 10, 2017February 10, 2017Leave a Comment

The Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show beautifully fused together 90’s hip hop trends with modern style. Nevertheless, the inspiration behind the amazing collection has an even deeper meaning. Fashion’s rising duo is using their couture brand to start a revolution. One that they desire will give hope as well as power to the people.

Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show

Nicholas and Christopher Kunz are the genius masterminds behind the Nicholas K label. The brother and sister couture designers have been deeply affected by the politics of America. From the recent ban and administration changes Nicholas and Christopher began to feel as though things in America were going backwards.

Enter their Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 collection. First of all, it was important to the designers to show inclusion and diversity. For their NYFW show they made sure to cast models of all shades and tones. Next, they let their clothes do the rest of the talking.

The garments are a throw back to the golden era of hip hop, the 90s. Oversized coats, slouchy pants and a bold color palette (black, gold, red) brought the decade before the 2000’s back to the catwalk.

Also, the strong accessories gave the collection a very activist and rebel vibe. Models hit the catwalk in berets, humongous septum rings as well as earrings. The resulting look immediately made us think black panther and underground grunge.

As you can see Nicolas K definitely left their mark on NYFW and we can’t wait to future designs from the growing brand. Nevertheless, there’s more to see so keep your fashionable eyes on 1966 as we bring you the hottest moments of fashion week!

Arianne SuggsUpdated on February 10, 2017February 10, 2017Leave a Comment

Here we go with another fab celebrity sighting! The beyond gorgeous Teyana Taylor Attends La Perla NYFW Show in true diva style. From her lovely hair color to her dazzling ensemble, Taylor made quite the statement.

Teyana Taylor Attends La Perla NYFW Show

Where is baby Junie?! As much as we love seeing Teyana and her beautiful daughter out and about; it’s still nice to spot TT enjoying a night out on the town solo. Moreover, what better place to be than taking in the voguish designs of New York Fashion Week?

Day one of NY’s fashion week really kicked things off with a major bang. All the shows from morning till night were full of trendy surprises. Nonetheless, La Perla immediately got the crowd in an uproar right at the start. Hint: Involves a very famous supermodel and more on that later!

La Perla is well known for their luxe, glamorous lingerie. Therefore, it makes perfect sense that their attendees would possess the same vibes. Teyana Taylor awesomely fits the bill of sassy and chic.

Taylor’s OOTD for the show fell in line perfectly with La Perla’s Fall/Winter 2017 theme incorporating the beauty of florals. Teyana brought the fashion heat in a garment from the La Perla Spring 2017 collection.

She finished her look with a fur to stay warm in the snowy New York weather. Also, can we give it up one time for her vivacious and boisterous hair color! We love how the bold tint compliments her outfit and blends due to matching one of the shades found in the print of her gown. Moreover, the deep middle part and slanted cut add some sleek, modern edginess. Bravo!

amfAR New York Gala Fashion Recap

Arianne Suggs February 9, 2017February 9, 2017Leave a Comment

It was an electric night dedicated to the fight against the global AIDS epidemic. Many celebrities were on hand to show their support as well as honor those for their notable contributions. For instance, supermodel Naomi Campbell was on hand to present the amfAR Award of Courage to designer Donatella Versace. We present our amFar New York Gala Fashion Recap!

amFar New York Gala Fashion Recap

Everyone looked fantastic for the star-studded event. Moreover, we noticed that Versace had a major night. Several fabulous ladies wore garments from the luxury brand which was fitting due to the lovely Donatella being honored. Check out who made up the Versace squad!

The creation of amfAR came about to the unfortunate passing Hollywood actor, Rock Hudson. Hudson was the first well-known public figure to die of AIDS-related illness. Right before his death Rock donated $250,000 to help others in the future who might face a similiar health issue. His longtime friend Elizabeth Taylor used his donation in order to help establish amfAR.

amFar New York Gala Fashion Recap-Raising Funds for Research

To raise funds there were quite a few art pieces up for grabs. Here are a few that caught our eye along with the cool story behind them:

“Thrilled and honored to be auctioning off this work by American street artist Alec Monopoly at amfAR New York Gala. This piece was specifically chosen by the artist since it reflects the kinetic energy and constant motion of New Yorkers. To date the amfAR New York Gala has raised more than $17 million in support of the fight against HIV/Aids.”

“When it comes to the history of amfAR, there is a special place for the woman who helped start it all. Christopher Makos’ 1988 black and white portrait of amfAR Founding International Chairman Elizabeth Taylor on Malcolm Forbes is just one of the many works generously donated to be auctioned.”

Arianne Suggs February 9, 2017February 9, 2017Leave a Comment

Lady in reddddddd! We hope you sang that AND we hope you are just as excited as we are that Solange Covers Elle Magazine March 2017 Issue! Solange has definitely come into her own as an artist and it is great to see more and more embracing her vibes. Moreover, for years we have felt she is also underrated when it comes to being a style risk taker. She’s not afraid to try anything and is always fun to see on a red carpet. For these reasons and more Solange makes and deserves to be the fabulous cover girl she is!

Solange Covers Elle Magazine March 2017 Issue

For the March edition of ELLE Solange talks about a little bit of everything. She dives into music, love, her ambitions, art and her huge 2016 album. Regarding creating her wildly successful music she stated,

“Writing felt like this insular thing that I could go back in my room and express all that I would observe. [Also] all the emotions that would arise. It felt like mine, my little thing.”

Salamishah Tillet who is a scholar, professor at the University of Pennsylvania and activist shared thoughts on Solange. Inside the March issue Tillet gives her views regarding A Seat at the Table. She says,

“A Seat at the Table boldly channels the contradictions of our moment. The stew of pride, disappointment, vulnerability, and anger that African Americans are experiencing. In an era marked as much by the election of our first black president as the murder of young black people.

[Nevertheless] the record is sweeping in its reckoning with the nation’s vexed racial past and present. Furthermore its intimate and unexpectedly gentle.”

How did A Seat at the Table make you feel? Get the full scoop and check out Solange’s chic editorial when the ELLE March issue hits stands!

Rihanna Honors Amelia Earhart For Harper’s Bazaar 150th Anniversary Issue

Arianne SuggsUpdated on February 9, 2017February 8, 2017Leave a Comment

Rihanna and Harper’s Bazaar did not come to play! Let us tell you that the fashions are stunning and the imagery is breath-taking. The theme of the editorial is brilliant especially with the amount of pure girl power that has manifested itself so far in 2017. This is a must-see spread, Rihanna Honors Amelia Earhart For Harper’s Bazaar 150th Anniversary Issue.

Rihanna Honors Amelia Earhart For Harper’s Bazaar 150th Anniversary Issue

Two different gorgeous covers as well as an editorial with looks for days! Honestly, Rihanna’s homage to the great Amelia Earhart just keeps giving. You gaze upon one shot and then the very next one tops it. Harper’s Bazaar talked about their big anniversary issue stating, “Badgal Riri channels Amelia Earhart, the first woman to fly alone across the Atlantic Ocean, for our March 2017 issue by editor in chief Glenda Bailey.”

Hats off to Bailey because the execution of the 150th edition is flawless. Moreover, RiRi showcased her flawless modeling skill set while wearing fashions from the Spring/Summer 2017 collections of Salvatore Ferragamo and Stella McCartney (to name a few). Regarding taking part in the edition Rihanna says, “On my Amelia Earhart sh*t! Such an honor to pay tribute to this dynamic bada** woman! Always handled her duties in the most style!”

No doubt Rihanna knows a thing or two about being dynamic. Her artistry and style has helped separate her from the musical pack and made her a fashion icon. Moreover, she accomplished it all as a hard-working woman with much drive. Rihanna commented further on why honoring Amelia was so fitting. She stated,

“There’s something so special about a woman who dominates in a man’s world. It takes a certain grace, strength, intelligence and fearlessness. [Also] the nerve to never take no for an answer.

Amelia Earhart was such a dynamic force in her industry, setting multiple aviation records in her time. So it was a no-brainer for me to team up with Harper’s Bazaar in honor of a woman who held her own with the boys.”

Rihanna Honors Amelia Earhart For Harper’s Bazaar 150th Anniversary Issue- Final Thoughts

Very true Rih! Amelia Earhart accomplished many firsts in a male dominated industry. Proving us girls can tackle any feat with success. So ladies remember the skies are not the limit and you can do anything like Miss Earhart and Fenty.

Arianne Suggs February 8, 2017February 8, 2017Leave a Comment

Blac Chyna Channels Devil Wears Prada Haircut and now the whole Internet is going wild! The future Mrs. Angela Kardashian is sporting a new cut that is serving all the greatness of Miranda Priestly. Nevertheless, what do you think? Is Blac Chyna‘s new hairdo giving off some serious Devil Wears Prada vibes?

Blac Chyna Channels Devil Wears Prada Haircut

If you have ever been an intern (all of us here at 1966 have LOL) then one film from 2006 probably made you laugh and cringe at the same time. Who of us can forget Meryl Streep’s captivating performance as a villainous boss lady?

Besides the terror she inflicted to all in the office another aspect of that awesome character everyone remembers is her personal style. From head to toe Miranda Priestly pushed all the way through. Her high-end designer fashions as well as killer hair cut just straight up screamed glamour! However, would we expect anything less from a magazine editor? Uh, course not!

Her haircut was so bomb even a decade later it still feels very en vogue. Blac Chyna’s version of the look is just as flawless. Gray hair has been a hot trend for quite some time yet it still is conveys a fresh and modern aura. We love the swooping action and height of Chyna’s hairstyle which adds dimension without sacrificing sophistication. The fans have spoken on the gray cut and here is what they are saying:

“Yes!!!”

“I actually like this, what a surprise.”

“Too pretty!”

“Guuurrrrrlllllll.”

“Push through Angela.”

“It’s so funny because I always thought she look the best with short cuts but if this is how she will look when she gets older… slay on Queen.”

“ZAAAAAMMMMMMNNNNNN CHY!”

“She real live need to be on X-Men.”

“Lookin like Meryl Streep lol still cute though of course.”

Beyonce Pregnancy Instagram Photo Hits 10 Million Likes

Arianne SuggsUpdated on February 7, 2017February 7, 2017Leave a Comment

You know that feeling you get when you post some heat on the Gram and those notifications are sprinkling in from your followers like they’re Salt Bae? Well, Beyonce is getting love on that level and then some. The Grammy award winning singer and style icon will now add yet another accomplishment to her stellar career. One that has never ever happen before in the history of Instagram. Don’t ever underestimate the BeyHive ladies and gents. The fans, friends and family have spoken… Beyonce Pregnancy Instagram Photo Hits 10 Million Likes!

Beyonce Pregnancy Instagram Photo Hits 10 Million Likes

While the rest of us mere mortals pop our collars over 100 likes, Bey over here getting literally 100,000 times that! The frenzy all began when Beyonce quietly announced to the world that not only was she preg but she was also expecting twins. She did so by taking to SM and posting a delicate photograph of herself caressing her bump.

The result was Bey-pandemonium! The news spread faster than a speeding bullet. In seconds every social platform was consumed with the Beyonce announcement. Nevertheless, are we really that surprised? Uh, of course not! They call her queen for a very good reason.

The Bey Pic That Started It All

Moreover, that very day Bey released the pregnancy photo it collected over 6 million likes beating out Selena Gomez’s Coca Cola pic which had held the record for most likes. Gomez currently still holds the number one slot for most followers on the Gram. Therefore, it’s safe to say both ladies are killing the social game.

Beyonce Pregnancy Instagram Photo Hits 10 Million Likes -Go Girl!

Nevertheless, 10 million likes is nothing to shrug off. Plenty of brands and celebs would love to command that type of engagement. In this era of tech everything has changed. For instance, the music industry has had to revamp and rethink how to count or view record sales. It’s not about just pure sales anymore, now streams are just as important.

Moreover, with social media now we base stardom on who achieves and garnishes the most numbers. It’s not about having the complete package just the right aesthetic or following. So then, it’s nice to see someone from the ‘old school’ and pre-Insta era that is still being a boss.

We also got a kick out of all the sisterhood shown this past week. Many celebrities reposted Bey’s pic or left a sweet congratulatory comment. Fellow fashion icon, Rihanna, wished Beyonce and her big bro Jay Z the best with their growing family. Which shows there’s no beef and if there is, it can always be worked through. Let’s continue to support each other, congratulate each other and just be plain happy for one another.

Its a beautiful thing and doesn’t cost a penny. Major congrats again to Bey and Jay. Also, to her hive for demonstrating some more of that black girl magic and racking up ten million likes! Do not see anyone breaking that record any time soon.

How to Get Rid of Zits in No Time Flat

Arianne Suggs February 6, 2017February 6, 2017Leave a Comment

Pop that thang girl! Okay, actually in this instance that is very bad advice. When it comes to pimples save all the popping action for the dance floor with your squad. In this post we are going to teach you how to get rid of zits fast in two different ways. Nevertheless, both methods or closely related so you will get a lot of bang for your buck without wasting any time.

How to Get Rid of Zits in No Time Flat

Would you love to get rid of zits while masking them from the world at the same time? Well, dolls you can. In order to accomplish this you need a couple of things. Concealer and a concealer brush.

Now we know you may be thinking, “Why use a brush, my fingers work just fine?” Yes, your fingers are probably very nifty at creating some bomb beat face results. However, concealer brushes work better because their tapered bristles are able to get into every crevice of a blemish. Your bigger fingers cannot not accomplish that.

Furthermore, when getting rid of acne aim for a concealer that contains salicylic acid. Salicylic acid is a zit zapping powerhouse! A concealer of this nature will allow you to cover the little bugger up while also simultaneously working to get rid of it.

Many choose to use two products instead of using just a spot concealer product. However, utilizing cover-up and zip cream will not adhere to the skin very well. Therefore, it is best to use a concealer that does it all in one formula. Once you apply a concealer containing salicylic acid with a concealer brush just set everything with a powder that matches your skin tone.

Application Tip: Use short, quick strokes/motions when covering up zits for a more flawless, natural looking finish.
