CHI Haircare Real Is Beautiful Campaign With Zendaya

CHI Haircare Real Is Beautiful Campaign With Zendaya

Chi Haircare has just released a new ad campaign featuring one our faves Zendaya Coleman! The campaign aims to help girls to embrace their real individual beauty. As part of the #RealIsBeautiful campaign Zendaya shares her style and beauty tips. Zendaya makes a wonderful spokeswoman for the CHI Haircare brand since she does always keep it 100.

Just how real does Zendaya keep it? Well, in the past she stood up to remarks made in regards to her wearing dreads at a red carpet event. The result? Recanting of statements made and Zendaya heralded in the form of a Barbie doll, dreads and all. Coleman’s outspokenness to be comfortable and confident in your own skin has resonated with young girls the world over.

Rihanna Shows Fenty x Puma Collection During NYFW

Anyone remember the Puma Creeper? Well, you might if you were able to get your hands on a pair. The Creeper sold out almost instantly and the shoe world is gearing up for another hit from the Fenty x Puma camp. In regards to the Trainer by Fenty, Puma took to Instagram stating that the shoe is,

“Designed to draw attention, push boundaries, and change the game. Designed by [Rihanna]. Introducing the Trainer by Fenty. Available 2.26.”

We always enjoy getting fan reactions to big announcements. We find it is a way to gauge potential success and get some realism on the subject at hand. Here is what people are saying about the Trainer by Fenty ad campaign:

“Talk about setting a trend.”

“Work work work!”

“Ugh why is she so dope.”

“I want these shoes.”

“We want the Creeper ones to be restocked!!”

“I like them they kinda clean.”

“These are better than my Reeboks, that are no longer mine lol.”

So far it sounds like people are feeling them. Fans also took time to send their well wishes to Rihanna since she was unable to perform at the Grammys this year. Yes, get well soon Rihanna and congratulations on the new shoe.

Brittanie Evans-Our Black Hair Color Crush

Brittanie Evans-Our Black Hair Color Crush

We have loved Brittanie Evans whether she is drawing a masterpiece or showing how she transforms into Black Barbie. One of her latest fun hair color looks involves two very bold tints, orange and pink. Normally, we would never think that orange and pink hair could look fabulous together. However, Brittanie Evans has made us believers and she even revealed how she achieved this bold hairstyle! Brittanie explained,

“I’m wearing 4 bundles of The Vanity Box brazilian wavy extensions cut into a bob. This hairstyle only took a few hours to achieve. I used two boxes of SPLAT platinum blonde to lift the color (The Vanity Box hair colors very well). Then [I] went over it with a pink and orange semi-permanent hair dye from ADORE. The hair was curled with my PYT Hair Bombshell curling wand. Voila!”

What a total doll! Plus, she definitely knows how to dye some hair. Therefore, if you are looking for some inspiration to add some splash to your strands Brittanie Evans multi-colored bob is a good choice.

Beauty Notes: Besides amazing hair Brittanie Evans is also known for her beautiful makeup looks. Here is what she used to create this one:

Ciara 2016 Grammys Low Ponytail

Ciara 2016 Grammys Low Ponytail

The 2016 Grammys saw many hair trends come to the fore, one of our favorites was worn by songstress, Ciara. Ciara walked the red carpet with her handsome BF, Russell Wilson, in a daring gown by Alexandre Vauthier. To accompany her 2016 Grammys look, Ciara kept her hair simple with a low ponytail.

Some gals tend to shy away from wearing a ponytail because they feel that the hairstyle can be a little dull at times. Nevertheless, Ciara’s take on the low ponytail shows that drama can be created by adding just a few touches.

What touches can you add to your hair that will be Ciara inspired? Try these!

  • Highlights- Hair color instantly adds dimension.
  • Wisp It Good– Allow a few face framing strands to flow effortlessly near the hair line. Will give off sexy, relaxed, yet sophisticated vibes.
  • Back Up– The back is important as the front, so have fun with the tail by adding braids or twist detailing.
  • Go Big– Forget a small part, be dramatic like Ciara by including a deep middle part for extra flair.

Zoolander 2 Vogue Editorial Starring Joan Smalls

Zoolander 2 Vogue Editorial Starring Joan Smalls

In this editorial put together by Vogue, Derek Zoolander proves he is a really, really good looking model! We always love when a bit of humor can be reintroduced into the fashion world. Zoolander, the film that made the duck-face pose a mainstream staple is back with a hilarious sequel. Actors Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson began building hype for Zoolander 2 when they walked in the Valentino Fall 2015 runway show.  Their unexpected Paris fashion show appearance set the tone of epic style moments to come.

The latest promotion includes a fashion spread in Vogue. Zoolander fiercely models with supermodels Joan Smalls, Jourdan Dunn and Gigi Hadid. The photos give us life and we can’t stop looking at them. Fan reaction to the Zoolander 2 editorial has been the same, here are a few:

“YESSSS”

“They Slay”

“This is amazing”

“Squad”

“This is for Vogue hahahaha I love it!”

“Why do I love everything about this?”

“This must be what it’s like to be really really good looking!”

“LOL slaying your thinking caps. Slay on slaya… Slay on!”

Zoolander 2 Vogue Editorial Starring Joan Smalls4

Yes, the photographs are fabulous and all models involved are slaying. Nevertheless, who is behind the camera is as important as who is in front of it to achieve such greatness. The Zoolander 2 photos were lensed by the iconic Annie Leibovitz. This is Derek Zoolander’s first Vogue cover (LOL).
