Arianne Suggs July 7, 2015July 7, 2015Leave a Comment

She’s got the London look…or she’s at least looking like a bag of money in the streets of London, England! Ciara is doing a little promotion out in the UK and visited several radio stations. She did it all while making a fashion statement and as she hit BBC Radio the cameras were waiting on her.

Ciara wore super short denim shorts, a white tee, plaid over shirt from the brand R-13 and Timberland boots. With legs like hers we would be showing them off too and proudly. The plaid aka lumberjack shirt trend seems to be heating up again as of late. Unfortunately, the one Ciara is wearing by R-13 seems to be completely sold out only showing how popular the look can be.

Hey! What do you think of Ciara’s look, loving or hating? Join the discussion on our Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr or tweet us @1966magazine.

With new gorgeous faces being seen on a daily basis it is hard to break out in an industry that is all about youth and beauty. As many television shows have helped to emphasize is that a model has to have that special something or Je Ne Sais Quoi that electrifies them off the pages of editorials, runways as well as ad campaigns.

Arianne SuggsUpdated on July 6, 2015July 6, 2015Leave a Comment

Beautiful Lineisy Montero is one of the modeling rising stars to be featured in Prada’s ad campaign for fall/winter 2015. Montero is joined in the campaign by models Avery Blanchard, Estella Boersma Inga Dezhina, Ine Neefs, Greta Varlese and Maartje Verhoef. In the ad the stylish squad sport tailored coats, jackets, embellished dresses and sweaters with much school collar preppy attitude. It is clear that Prada does not want women to be afraid of stronger color or prints which nicely livens up normal winter attire that tends to focus on darker, drabber styles.

Moreover, it is amazing how the collection screams retro and modern at the exact same time. The entire campaign was captured by photographer Steven Meisel.

Accessories Report: We immediately took notice of the long-sleeved gloves featured in the campaign. Long gloves are so old Hollywood chic and convey upscale luxury. So then, this fall and winter feel free to have an Audrey Hepburn moment…Prada has given us the okay.

Paris fashion week is in full swing and numerous celebrities have come out to play. Naomi Campbell still knows how to excite fashion onlookers and work it! The gorgeous supermodel attended the Atelier Versace runway show in an all white power suit.

Naomi clearly demonstrates that there is no need to fear that one may look too ‘masculine’ when wearing suits. It is all about the tailoring and fit of the suit so that curves are not lost or swallowed up. Moreover, the openness of the deep V cut adds some sassy appeal revealing a touch of skin.

Naomi enjoyed the stylish occasion as she sat next to Russian model Irina Shayk for the Versace fall-winter 2015/2016 Haute Couture fashion collection show.

Hair Question: How Do I Maintain My Asymetrical Bob?

Arianne SuggsUpdated on July 6, 2015July 6, 2015Leave a Comment

Hair Answer: In order to maintain the sharpness of such a dramatic look it is important to stay on top of your trims. Asymmetrical hairstyles need to be cut every 6-7 weeks in order to retain their shapes. This frequency should be kept in mind due to the fact that a regular blunt cut may last upwards of 2 or 3 months. Therefore, if you are considering cutting your hair into such a style knowing the upkeep and maintenance routine will help anticipate any additional costs.

With any hairstyle there is a bit of maintenance involved even when it comes to just one aspect of the style. For instance, if you have an asymmetrical haircut and added bangs you will need to mind the trimming of the bangs as well. So then, if you do have a bob with bangs they will most likely need to be trimmed every 4 weeks. Nevertheless, keep in mind that everyone is different and some will have strands that grow faster than others. Adjustments can be made based on your personal hair growth cycle.

Arianne Suggs July 3, 2015July 3, 2015Leave a Comment

We have said it before and we will say it again, this woman is giving us life! The Magic Mike XXL tour rolls on and at its recent destination Jada Pinkett once more stole the red carpet show! Jada has been an absolute gem in every city the Magic Mike crew has touched down in to promote the film.

Pinkett hit the red carpet premiere in Amsterdam in an ombre Versace gown with sheer details. Like at previous premieres, Jada finished dolling up her look with jewelry by Monica Vinader.

The whole squad still looking good too!

Hair Notes: Who says women with short hair do not have options? Jada has been working her short cut like rent is due! We love the style variation with tresses pulled back off the face to the side with wispy strands floating free. The overall result is flirtatious, sophisticated and very polished.

Arianne Suggs July 3, 2015July 3, 2015Leave a Comment

How does a Bond girl choose to dress for a red carpet event? Well, Harris…Naomie Harris (yeah, you like what we did there) chooses to stay ahead of the fashionistas and wear fashions not from 2015 but 2016. Harris made jaws drop in a creation from Mugler Resort 2016 collection. The floor length bi-color macramé dress wasn’t without it’s allure. The gown possessed a high side split revealing Naomie’s super toned gams.

Harris wore the Mugler design this week when she attended the NSPCC Neo-Romantic Art Gala. The gala was held at the Masterpiece London on June 30, 2015 in London, England. Naomie kept accessories to minimum choosing to tote a clutch and strut in black ankle strap heels.

Nevertheless, it seems like Naomie is enjoying the fashions of 2016 because this isn’t the only time she has recently sported future couture. At the Walkabout Foundation Inaugural Gala Harris floated down the red carpet in a dress from the Tory Burch Resort 2016 collection.
