Solange Covers Elle Magazine March 2017 Issue

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

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.

Hair

Blac Chyna Channels Devil Wears Prada Haircut

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

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.
