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

While all eyes have been on the amazing fashions coming down numerous runways we have still kept our peepers peeled for other trends as well. We took note of the fabulous hair that has been making its way to the front row. Celebrities play just as an important part as the models themselves when it comes to making a runway show successful. The more high profile persons you see camping out on the front row the hotter the designer must be and sought after.

Celebrities have been coming out to play in droves for New York Fashion Week making for a buffet of serious style. Therefore, what hairstyle trend have we seen to be a common denominator amongst the rich and fabulous? Leading ladies and music superstars have been indulging in the bob effect. These cuts are chic, very sassy and scream, “I am woman hear me roar!” Here are a few ladies we spotted:

Get the Look: Beyonce’s Laid Back Denim

Arianne Suggs September 17, 2015September 17, 2015Leave a Comment

When you are Beyonce you could literally throw on a paper sac and make a statement. Nevertheless, Beyonce still chooses to flex her style power whether on a red carpet, at a high profile gala or just relaxing on vacation. Overalls can be a cute denim choice but at times can be hard to pull off; especially, if you are past the tetherball and blacktop era.

We love how Queen Bey chose to make her overall look quite sassy. Bey left one strap undone and showed curves by pairing her overalls with a form-fitting tank top. Moveover, the overalls themselves added flair thanks to their distressed detailing. A few rips and shreds is all you need to take an ordinary, boring pair of jeans to another level.

Want Beyonce’s laid back denim ensemble? Keep scrolling to see how to pull this simplistic yet stylish look together.

Fashionable Mention: Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars Andy Warhol Collection

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

This collection made its debut earlier in the year and we were curious as to how it would be received. Personally, we thought the collection was in a word… cool. Being lovers of art and fashion it seemed to be a match made in style heaven. Converse coming together with the genius that was Andy Warhol.

Who just was Andy Warhol you ask? Warhol was an American artist who revolutionized what we now call pop art. Andy enjoyed seeing the artistic marriage between pop as well as celebrity culture and 1960’s advertisement.

One shoe from the Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars Andy Warhol collection that we still get a kick out of and that is still retailing strong is the Campbell’s Soup rendition. Maybe its because it gives us flashbacks to childhood or that it is simply epic to see a famous painting come to fashion life. It also makes us think of an old dance video…

Fashionable Mention: Marc Jacobs Decadence

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

It’s a bird, it’s a plane… no it is just the coolest fragrance design you have ever seen! We love when designers step outside the box and create a full on masterpiece. Of course half the reason fragrances sale so well is due to their captivating and alluring notes. However, for some of us a perfume’s overall packaging can also sway us to have the register ringing.

We are loving Marc Jacobs newest fragrance Decadence which comes packaged as a chic purse-shaped bottle. Jacobs says he wanted his fragrance to truly be indulgent. Indulgence means the act or practice of gratifying a desire or passion. Decadence includes sensuous notes of Bulgarian rose, papyrus woods as well as Italian plum. So then, give in to your desire to have one decadent fragrance.

Rihanna could sport Coca Cola bottles on her feet and would still make the fashion world swoon. There is just something about Rihanna’s care-free style that is alluring and irresistible. So far this week Rihanna has rocked a couple looks that made us go, “Must Have That!” If you are a shoe-a-holic like us then from the above and following photos you already know what item we need in our closets.

Just look at those strappy beauties that look prime to bring any guy to his knees! Rihanna’s DSquared2 Spring 2016 Black Strappy Thigh High Sandals is great for showing off nicely toned gams and pairs well with dresses, skirts and rompers. Rihanna was spotted in her thigh high lace up sandals while out on the town enjoying dinner with Travis Scott after his sold out show. She chose to pair hers with a fashionable LBD and simplistic accessories.

Want to get on the same level as Rihanna’s shoe game? Head on over to to the interwebs and get yourself a pair of these:

For us Californians we are loving this look because the weather is going to hold strong a little longer than other regions. Therefore, this shoe is great even during fall months when its time to spice things up. Here are a few more images of Rihanna working like rent is due in her sassy heels.

Actress Crystal Donna Wows at 2015 Venice Film Festival

Arianne Suggs September 8, 2015September 8, 2015Leave a Comment

The Venice Film Festival of 2015 has been all abuzz with the news of history being made thanks to the hard-earned efforts of a South African director. Award-winning SA filmmaker Oliver Hermanus’ third film The Endless River was selected as the first ever SA film to compete for The Golden Lion. The Golden Lion is the top award/prize that can be received during The Venice Film Festival.

The Golden Lion is not to be taken lightly, winning and even being nominated can give a film much publicity and credit. For instance, last year the film Birdman competed along with other selected films in order to receive the coveted honor. Birdman went on to win Best Picture at the Academy Awards. In view of the nomination producer Genevieve Hofmeyr said,

“We are thrilled about this prestigious selection… it is a great achievement for Oliver, the entire team and the broader South African industry.”

The Endless River is being highly praised as an extraordinary film and a must see drama of a relationship that evolves between a waitress (Donna) and French deportee after his family is brutally murdered. Another must see was Crystal Donna’s leading lady red carpet look for The Endless River’s premiere. Donna floated past flashing cameras in a black and white ensemble with sheer detailing. Donna is definitely set to be a stunning and talented movie star!

Fashionable Mention: Iman in Balmain Pre-Fall 2015

Arianne Suggs September 4, 2015September 4, 2015Leave a Comment

Here is a quick fashion nod to Iman who rocks the heck out of Balmain’s Pre-Fall 2015 collection. We had already posted regarding the fabulousity of these particular designs but when you add in the stunning grace of supermodel Iman it just takes things to another level. Moreover, we have said it once and we will continue to iterate that there is no way that this woman is 60!

Iman showcases the gorgeous Balmain creations in the latest issue of L’Officiel Netherlands which is appropriately entitled, “Sweet Sixty.” If we wind up looking that dang good in the coming years than we will know we are truly blessed with good genes like this sassy lady! Iman slays women half her age and does it all with elegance and sophistication. A true role model for any young girls aiming for the brightly lit stars.

The color scheme and tailoring of the Balmain collection is simply bar none. We are loving the return of pleats which was a major hit and trend a few seasons back. Moreover, the use of florals in fall instead of spring is so airy and festive you begin to forget the dreary weather that is quickly approaching us all. Balmain is for the girl who is powerful yet feminine, bold yet oozing with finesse. If that’s you then you need to go ahead and submit to being a member of Oliver Rousteing’s army!
