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.

Hair Crush: Aimiomode Anetor at ‘Incorruptible’ Screening

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

Actress Aimiomode Anetor shut the red carpet down when she attended the screening for the film Incorruptible. This documentary examples the role that youths are playing in shaping the future of the country of Africa. Back in 2011 Senegal was pitched into crisis when President Abodoulaye Wade announced his plans to change the constitution which would allow leaders to have a third term. From this decision onward a youth movement was born in order to protect one of Africa’s oldest and stable democracies.

For the screening Anetor walked the carpet in an all white ensemble that showed off her beautiful skin tone. Just as gorgeous was her voluminous wavy strands that gracefully fell past her shoulders. Whether hitting a beach in the Caribbean or a swanky pool party Aimiomode’s hairstyle would be perfect.

Spotted: Leigh-Anne Pinnock of ‘Little Mix’ at the BBC Radio 2 Studio

Arianne Suggs June 16, 2015June 16, 2015Leave a Comment

Singer Leigh-Anne Pinnock was spotted looking rather chic as she arrived at the BBC Radio Studio on June 15, 2015. Leigh-Anne is a member of the English girl group Little Mix who were formerly known as Rhyhmix. The group was formed back in 2011 and consists of four girls: Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jade Thirwall, Perrie Edwards and Jesy Nelson. If you are looking for an American comparison think along the lines of Danity Kane.

We loved the blue jumpsuit that Pinnock wore during her outing, especially since it was belted which is great for defining the waist. Moreover, her hair was also just as divine. Leigh-Anne’s high topknot was just as effortlessly cool as her ensemble.

Spotted: Rihanna at LAX Airport

Arianne Suggs June 15, 2015June 15, 2015Leave a Comment

Tis’ the season of travel and je-tsetter Rihanna is no different. The B*tch Better Have My Money starlet was seen walking through LAX airport in Los Angeles, California yesterday on June 14, 2o15. RiRi wore camouflage pants, graphic tee, an over-sized leather jacket as well as bag with a hat and shades. It is rumored that Rihanna was headed out of town after enjoying a dinner date with Karim Benzema.

Hair Notes: It looks like Rihanna is still enjoying being a redhead, a hair look that popped back up around Coachella. Nonetheless, if you are planning to travel quite a distance by plane a hat is an excellent accessory to help “tame the beast” so to speak. No matter how you sleep or rest your tired pretty little head you will not have to worry if your hair looks alright allowing you to travel with less stress.

Arianne Suggs May 5, 2015May 5, 2015Leave a Comment

Celebrities always aim to bring their “A” game for The Met Ball, one of the biggest fashion events of the year. The theme for this year’s gala was “China: Through The Looking Glass.” Starlets and gentlemen arrived to showcase their take and perspective on the night’s theme through their own personal style. Color seemed to be a the way to go and we noticed purple and blues were repeatedly spotted.

Hair of the Week: Zendaya Coleman at 2015 Radio Disney Music Awards

Arianne Suggs April 27, 2015April 27, 2015Leave a Comment

Zendaya looked like an exotic Repunzel walking the red carpet at this year’s Radio Disney Music Awards. The starlet rocked hair down-to-there in soft lush waves that looked like she had just emerged from the ocean waters like Ariel. Alright, alright enough with the fairy tale references, it’s the Radio Disney Music Awards we couldn’t help it! Nevertheless, we digress…we loved Zendaya’s beachy waves and hope that she keeps this look.

First Look: Zoe Kravitz Covers Marie Claire

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

Zoe Kravitz is Marie Claire’s newest covergirl and on the cover as well as inside the May 2015 issue Zoe flexes some style muscle. For the cover she wears a moto jacket from the Pre-Fall 2015 Christopher Kane collection. Another shot we loved shows Kravitz in a cute knit sweater dress with snake skin boots. Nevertheless, Zoe also revealed a little insight into her own style preferences:

“I’ve been trying the art of dressing up sweatpants. I feel like an NYU student. Not in a good way. But if you wear them with, like, a chunky boot, it’s kind of cool.”

Rihanna Dolls Up in Pink Dior Gown for Home Premiere

Arianne Suggs March 23, 2015March 23, 2015Leave a Comment

Our initial reaction to RiRi’s fashion statement at the Los Angeles premiere of animated film Home, was wow she looks like a doll! We are sure if a Rihanna doll made it’s way to the toy aisle Mattel would make a serious grip. We are talking Elmo level pandemonium people… then again that’s the everyday life of Rihanna right now.

RiRi hit the red carpet in a pink satin gown by Dior that made us want to watch Breakfast at Tiffany’s for the 100 million time. Rihanna looked elegant, sophisticated and very old Hollywood glam. We love us some Rihanna whether her style is “badgal” or a conservative good girl.
