Streetstyle: Alesha Dixon

Arianne Suggs June 20, 2015June 20, 2015Leave a Comment

We always love looking into international style because every area or region has an unique flavor. For instance, in London Alesha Dixon was seen arriving at the BBC RADIO 2 studio looking relaxed chic. Dixon wore a white tank, ripped denim pants, gold accessories, ankle boot heels and a killer hat.

As mentioned earlier this week distressed jeans are a simple way to add a little attitude or edge to your look. Keep things tamed by wearing very neutral and conservative pieces along with your emboldened denim. This will allow the pants to have more of the spotlight than having to compete with other loud fashions.

Kenzo Resort 2016

Alicia Suggs June 19, 2015June 19, 2015Leave a Comment

Kenzo Resort 2016 collection is in tune with mother nature. Such a great concept to use the world around you as inspiration to try and create new textile, fabrics and color combination you might sometimes overlook.

This Resort 2016 collection is heavy on camel, tan, brown and black. What we love also are the prints they look just like the texture of rock formations in the Palm Spring Desert Mountains. The collection is so beautiful to look at and looks extremely luxe. Kenzo has done it again with models Damaris Goddrie and Karly Loyce.

Aamito Lagum for Acne Resort 2016

Alicia Suggs June 19, 2015June 19, 2015Leave a Comment

Aamito Lagum for Acne Resort 2016. Have you taken note of Acne’s accessory piece. Acne went back to the 90’s with the choker necklaces that looked like tattoos. Now this is a flashback every girl used to rock back in the day and thought they were super cool because you looked like you had this bad girl image.

However, Acne did class it up a bit by making the choker thicker and added other colors like gold and copper. Now seeing it paired with beautiful runway clothes it shows that you can take an old teeny-bopper classic from the 90’s add the perfect skirt to it or coat and you are now fashionable.

Okay for those you don’t know here is a quick rundown on this super cool couple. They are UK based and Rochelle is the host of several shows including Ninja Warrior Uk, radio co-host on KISS FM and the Xtra Factor, a new spin-off of the wildly popular show The X Factor created by music genius Simon Cowell. Rochelle’s hubby Marvin is a former singer of the male group JLS who back in 2008 came in second overall on X Factor. After the show ended the group was signed to Epic Records and their first two singles both went to number one of the UK Singles Chart. Moreover, their first LP went on to go platinum and as of 2012 JLS’ debut single as well as album has been named one of the X Factor’s top 10 biggest-selling singles and albums.

Now that you are in the know let’s finally talk a little fashion! Rochelle and Marvin were spotted looking fabulous with Marvin in a leather jacket, pants as well as white tee and Rochelle in a chic pinstriped dress. When dressing as a couple it’s best not to wear ensembles that clash or compete with each other. The whole idea is to complement one another so that both fashion looks together seem seamless.

NeNe Leakes Sports a New Do’!

Arianne Suggs June 19, 2015June 19, 2015Leave a Comment

Reality starlet, actress and Broadway It Girl NeNe Leakes is showing why she is one of Atlanta’s baddest. NeNe rocked a brand new look this week which has deviated from her short hair cuts that she has worn for several years now. NeNe was one of the many celebrities in attendance for the amFar gala which was held in New York. Leakes wore a shimmery black dress, strappy heels and a new sassy hairdo’!

Leakes kept the blonde hair color but is now wearing long wavy hair with a side part. We think the hairstyle looks absolutely fab on NeNe and you can tell that she is feeling it! What prompted the change? Well, who can forget during last season’s escapades where a fellow RHOA (Real Housewives of Atlanta) cast member contrasted Leakes tresses to that of a pack of ramen. Definitely a low blow filled with buckets of shade.

Nevertheless, NeNe is not one to let any woman’s opinion deter her so the change was because she simply wanted it! We always say to rock a style not according to what the masses say but because it is a personal choice. So then, what do you think of NeNe’s new hair look, are you feeling it?

Rihanna Attends Christian Dior Fall 2015 Tokyo Show

Arianne Suggs June 18, 2015June 18, 2015Leave a Comment

We loved RiRi’s entire ensemble from head-to-toe which included boots, “stunna” shades, handbag and a fab denim dress! Rihanna was in attendance for the Christian Dior Fall 2015 Tokyo Show. The singer even took a moment to snap a quick shot with the CEO of Dior, Sidney Toledano.

Hair Notes: Rihanna has never shied away from taking risks when it comes to her fashion choices or numerous hairstyles. Rihanna’s fiery red locks looked gorgeous styled into vintage waves and a deep side part. Looks like old Hollywood glam made its way across the pond to trendy Tokyo!

Like those boots that Rihanna is rocking? Those shoes are from the Dior Resort 2016 collection.

60 Year Old Iman On Vanity Fair Italia July 2015

Alicia SuggsUpdated on June 17, 2015June 17, 2015Leave a Comment

Ok age is truly just a number, well at least for Iman. This Supermodel just doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. She is serving major fierceness in her editorial for Vanity Fair Italia for July. In this magazine she explains how she stay ageless:

“I go to the gym, I am attentive to the diet. And I’m not complaining of the extra pounds, at least a couple, because they act as a natural botox. When women get older the first place you see it is the face that becomes too thin, worn out, tired. And then they go to get botox, but for me the best remedy is a bit ‘overweight’.”
