The Allure March 2018 edition is giving us serious William sisters vibes! We spy braids and hair accessory beads as far as the eye can see. It is a beautiful thing. The cover featuring Oscar winner, Lupita Nyong’o is certainly one for the culture.
Allure March 2018 Issue Featuring Actress Lupita Nyong’o
Don’t wear your hair like that. Those look unprofessional. Braids can never be classy. Sound familiar?
For years, those are some of the expressions women of color have had to endure when it comes to hairstyling. Especially, when wearing their tresses in the form of braids. However, Allure magazine is diving into a different mindset and space. One where people can try to open and stretch their thoughts or opinions to see not only the beauty, but versatility of curls, waves, coils and kinks.
This week Allure excitedly revealed their upcoming March 2018 edition and shared a fitting quote. The magazine says,
“Presenting our March 2018 issue, The Culture of Hair, starring Lupita Nyong’o. In addition to talking to Nyong’o about her relationship with her hair; we also gave her and hairstylist, Vernon Francois total freedom over her looks.
‘Lupita and I wanted to show that coily or kinky hair has many strengths and can be worn in lots of different ways. [Thus] celebrating its beauty and versatility.’ says Francois.”

Summer will be here before we know it. Don’t let warmer weather, bikinis, maxi dresses, and short-shorts catch you off guard. Get ready to showcase your best body ever, by doing a hard-hitting couple workout routine right now!
Black Girl Fitness: Couple Workout Routine -Halle Berry Demonstrates
Actress Halle Berry is still spilling all of her fitness secrets. Her latest? Working out with your SO. Nevertheless, why should you give this type of workout a try? Berry says,
“Today is all about the couple workout. It’s often easier to workout with a partner. A partner holds you accountable so you won’t quit halfway through. A partner can spot you so you don’t injure yourself; but most of all, working out with a partner just makes it all more fun!
Here are two simple exercises you and your boo can do at home. It’s a plank with a squat and each person gets a workout at the same time. Squats for butt and legs, and plank for core and upper body. Do 20 reps for 10 sets. If you’re just beginning, do 10 reps for 5 sets.”
Couple Workout Routine -Halle Berry Demonstrates
Halle Berry is one of the hottest women ever. Therefore, if that is her advice we are taking it! Get like Halle and try out this couple workout routine. Here is how to do it with photo reference!
One partner gets into plank position, while the other stands behind in a deep squat with feet slightly wider than shoulder width apart; while holding the planker’s feet. The squater should then stand up with knees slightly bent. This is the start position.
From the start position, the planker continues to hold their position while the squater squats down. Perform 20 reps for 10 sets, or if just beginning, do 10 reps for 5 sets.
Once all the sets are completed, switch positions. The squater moves to the plank, while the planker becomes the squater. Then perform the same amount of reps again. Want a major challenge? Instead of reps just do as many reps as you can do before the burn becomes too much.
Couple Workout Routine
Working out solo is cool, but don’t miss out on all the benefits that working out as a couple can accomplish! While there are SO many, here are five awesome benefits that may just convince you to give Halle’s tip a try.
Keeping Things Fresh– Sometimes after awhile working out can seem a little stale. Used to the same walls, scenery, moves and music. However, add a partner and now its a party! Suddenly, exercising will feel less like the norm thanks to the addition of a new dynamic. Plus, you may find yourself working even harder just to impress your babe.
Stronger Bond– You both will be sticking closer than a pair of atoms. Science and research is showing that couples that work out together experience a stronger bond with each other which leads to a strengthened relationship. Awwww!
I Challenge You to a Duel!- Without swords of course, unless you both are into that kind of thing or fencing. Nevertheless, a couple workout routine provides an avenue for healthy competition. As both partners challenge each other to workout harder or longer, better results can be experienced and achieved.
Mama I’m a Cheerleader– Everyone needs encouragement sometimes. The great thing is when you are working out with your love you have a built in cheerleader. Someone with your best interests in mind that also wants to see you succeed. Both of you can “woo” and “you got this” each other to more tone bodies.
Catching Feelings… And Z’s– As we already established you and the boo will be falling for each other more. However, by getting your fitness on you both will also enjoy better sleep and less stress. Score!

Mary J Bilge Covers New York Magazine Spring Fashion 2018 Issue
In a career spanning decades, Mary is still on top and setting records. For instance, she is making Oscar history as the first person (male or female) to be nominated for Best Original Song as well as Best Supporting Actress. In view of this and many other accomplishments NY Mag sat down with the starlet in order to see how she feels about all of this star power as well as herself in general currently. The issue reveals,
Mary J Blige it’s up for an Academy award for the betrayal of someone so different from the other character she spent 25 years creating and in a way; hiding inside: the bling armored, blonde wig, Grammy laden ‘queen of hip-hop soul.”I learned that I’m a really powerful woman. I mean, other than just being Mary J Blige, the superstar, I learned that I’m powerful because I don’t have to say much to be heard.”
Sounds like the words of a woman who not only knows her talents, but her true worth. Check out the rest of Mary’s interview inside New York Magazine.

We love a good dose of street style fashion. Plus, add in a supermodel and the dividends are even sweeter! Models in the industry are known for having access to the hottest trends and must-have couture items; thus, aiding in the seasonal trends frenzy. Joan Smalls is already giving a preview of a spring handbag to add to our wardrobes. Check it out, we spotted Supermodel Joan Small’s MCM Trisha Bag!
Spotted: Supermodel Joan Small’s MCM Trisha Bag
Literally, everyone is wearing MCM right now! If you are an “It Girl” this brand will claim you. We have seen the fashion label on the “flawless ” Beyoncé as well as fellow model, Winnie Harlow. Queen Bey rocked the brand’s MCM Berlin Crossbody from their Autumn/Winter 2016 collection. While Miss Harlow sported the Millie Crossbody while being photographed on the streets of London, England.
So what about Joan’s handbag? Smalls hit the town with the MCM Trisha Bag. The bag is from MCM’s Viva Life collection that is apart of the Spring/Summer 2018 line.
Nevertheless, all these stylish ladies are bringing a huge spring 2018 accessories trend to the fore… the small handbag. While oversized can be great for transportating our entire lives around, it’s smaller bags that will rule the day. The great thing is that smaller bags can be toted without feeling loaded down. Thus, making them awesome for traveling, at events or daily errands. So then, go ahead and give the small bags some love this spring season!
