Ruth Akele for Vogue Arabia June 2020 Issue -Beautiful Black Women
The editorial you are about to witness is all about BUSINESS! Women are starting companies, being BOSSES and they need the clothes to match their entrepreneurial essence. One magazine piece that we thought recently captured and captivated this success driven aspect of fashion well; is the Ruth Akele for Vogue Arabia June 2020 edition!
Power suits, blouses, bold tones and ….shorts?? Yep… all find their way into this couture mix of excellence. Vogue Arabia had a short blurb on their issue which gives a new spin on office style. Vogue says,
“Let our June 2020 issue inspire you to step into a brave new world of suiting by experimenting with avant-garde cutting techniques in a high octane color palette. To see more looks, make sure to pick up your copy of our latest edition.”
Ruth Akele for Vogue Arabia June 2020 Issue -Beautiful Black Women
As the mag mentions, one thing that we love is the fresh infusion of color. That is not normally something one would probably think of for office attire. Usually, the typical uniform includes neutral colors with an emphasis on blue, gray, black or a beige.
This editorial invites fashion lovers to expand their horizons a bit (our favorite look is the green Balenciaga suit). To be a little more fearless with their wardrobe and really experiment. Fashion is all about self expression and its a real shame that in the work force we have had to put limits and restraints on personal style. Kudos to Vogue and the stunning Ruth Akele on these visuals!

Rihanna Covers Harper’s Bazaar China August 2019 Issue!
Back together again! If you recall in 2015, Rihanna served MAJOR fierceness on a cover for China’s Harper’s Bazaar. Well, the pairing is back with a new set of photography that’s just as stunningly gorgeous. BEHOLD… Rihanna Covers Harper’s Bazaar China August 2019 Issue!
Rihanna Covers Harper’s Bazaar China August 2019 Issue
Why did Bazaar choose Rihanna as their August cover girl? The magazine states that it is because of Rihanna’s record-breaking career and glamorous personal style; among other things. In regards to Rih Bazaar says,
“Singer, icon, entrepreneur… Rihanna has different titles and gets more and more influence at the same time. With the influence, she chooses to make a voice for the minority; showing the incredible feminine power.
There is always a brave truthfulness on Rihanna. She doesn’t care about judgments from others, just keep in doing what she loves. After four years, Rihanna is back to be our cover star; and again shows when western style icon meets eastern aesthetic.
Being born in Barbados, Rihanna has worked her way up from ‘nobody’ to ‘somebody’ with her musical talents. She is now a role model for girls all over the world; and she is even the ‘king of pop.’
Titles and Things
Oh the controversy! Many did not like the comments referring to Rihanna as the ‘king of pop.’ Some felt being a woman she should be called a queen not a king. Additionally, the iconic Michael Jackson was THE only true “king of pop” recognized by most in the world; therefore, numerous music fans feel that the title should remain with him.
Harper’s Bazaar’s response? Well, this looks a case of mistaken meaning. The Editor of Harper’s Bazaar China had this to say:
“Our [August cover star] Rihanna, she is the queen of music and pop. [Her] changing image always breaks the imagination of everyone. [This is her] second time to board the Chinese version of Bazaar, [and this time too] she brings us amazing Chinese elements again!”
Therefore, to us in seems as though Bazaar China was just trying to show and indicate Rihanna’s powerful influence; as well as dominance in the pop industry in general. No one can deny her major success and it is something that should be recognized.
So then, congrats to Miss Fenty for breaking the music mold. Plus, hots off to Bazaar China for yet another stunning set of visuals featuring the one and only, Rihanna!

Rihanna for Vogue Australia May 2019 Issue -The “Phenomenon”
She designs, she sings, entertains and helps women all over the globe feel absolutely fabulous about their bodies. How in the world is one woman so influential? This earth’s favorite self-professed ‘badgal’s popularity is only growing stronger; while her queenly dominion increases. Next month, VOGUE is diving into the phenomenon that is Rihanna. Scroll on to learn more about Rihanna for Vogue Australia May 2019 Issue!
Rihanna for Vogue Australia May 2019 Issue -The “Phenomenon”
Why is she so successful? There’s makeup [Fenty Beauty], athleisure [Fenty x Puma], lingerie [Savage x Fenty], socks [Stance] and an upcoming luxury couture line. All doing great, all making TONS of cash. Vogue Australia is taking a stab at explaining the secret behind Fenty’s enduring dominance in their latest edition. VOGUE says,
“Influential, unstoppable, fearless, a natural born leader. Meet our May 2019 cover star; Rihanna, an icon who knows inclusivity and knows what women want. Vogue investigates the Rihanna effect.”
Nevertheless, there is much to learn from and about Rihanna. People from all regions and walks of life seem to easily become comfortable with the hard-working musician. Regarding this VOGUE Australia shares one example, stating,
“‘I know ours is an unusual relationship. We are from very different worlds and we’re very different ages. Her childhood was very different to my upbringing in Adelaide; and the world of politics is not something she has deeply immersed herself in. Likewise, no-one would ever mistake me for a rock n’ roller or a pop icon,’ former Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard says of her unlikely friendship with Rihanna.
‘But despite all those differences I’ve found Rihanna is very easy to be around; and very easy to have a conversation with. I’ve learnt things from her about her world I didn’t know.'”

At A-list events Michael is always among the best dressed; therefore, it comes as no surprise he would be selected for such a fashion honor. Nevertheless, this moment is a really, really big deal. Why?
Well, that’s because this Coach campaign is making history. While famous women have been the front and center star for Coach (i.e. Selena Gomez), the boys haven’t always received the same spotlight.

Both Coach and Michael B. Jordan have been excitedly telling one and all about the spring campaign via social media. Here’s what they said:
“Ready to roll. Michael B. Jordan, our first global men’s face, makes his debut in our Spring 2019 campaign. Lensed by Craig McDean in the desert outside of Los Angeles, the actor and producer wears our Riverton backpack.”
-Coach
“So excited for my first campaign with Coach. Showing it to you guys before everyone else. Had the honor to work with the best team, including Craig McDean. More amazing things to come in 2019.”
-Michael B. Jordan

Yes, 2019 is already looking like another amazing year for Michael. New projects, making moves and looking good during it all. Congratulations Michael baby!

Allure March 2018 Issue Featuring Actress Lupita Nyong’o!
The Allure March 2018 edition is giving us serious William sisters vibes! We spy braids and hair accessory beads as far as the eye can see. It is a beautiful thing. The cover featuring Oscar winner, Lupita Nyong’o is certainly one for the culture.
Allure March 2018 Issue Featuring Actress Lupita Nyong’o
Don’t wear your hair like that. Those look unprofessional. Braids can never be classy. Sound familiar?
For years, those are some of the expressions women of color have had to endure when it comes to hairstyling. Especially, when wearing their tresses in the form of braids. However, Allure magazine is diving into a different mindset and space. One where people can try to open and stretch their thoughts or opinions to see not only the beauty, but versatility of curls, waves, coils and kinks.
This week Allure excitedly revealed their upcoming March 2018 edition and shared a fitting quote. The magazine says,
“Presenting our March 2018 issue, The Culture of Hair, starring Lupita Nyong’o. In addition to talking to Nyong’o about her relationship with her hair; we also gave her and hairstylist, Vernon Francois total freedom over her looks.
‘Lupita and I wanted to show that coily or kinky hair has many strengths and can be worn in lots of different ways. [Thus] celebrating its beauty and versatility.’ says Francois.”

In a career spanning decades, Mary is still on top and setting records.

In view of this and many other accomplishments NY Mag sat down with the starlet in order to see how she feels about all of this star power as well as herself in general currently. The issue reveals,
Mary J Blige it’s up for an Academy award for the betrayal of someone so different from the other character she spent 25 years creating and in a way; hiding inside: the bling armored, blonde wig, Grammy laden ‘queen of hip-hop soul.”I learned that I’m a really powerful woman. I mean, other than just being Mary J Blige, the superstar, I learned that I’m powerful because I don’t have to say much to be heard.”
