Arianne SuggsUpdated on February 4, 2016January 14, 2016Leave a Comment

It was bring your daughter to work day… Or wait, maybe it was the other way around. Nope, just amazing casting for a new ad campaign for Calvin Klein. Zoe Kravitz and her forever beautiful mother Lisa Bonet are featured in the Calvin Klein 2016 jewelry + watches campaign.

The eye-catching advert captures a lovely mother/daughter moment as the two walk along a beach. Zoe and Lisa are all smiles and are photographed hand in hand. The silver jewelry worn by Kravitz is very modern and neoteric. The CK campaign’s tag line is “Life in the now” and begs the question, what does time mean to you?

The video which accompanies their one page ad shows the pair (Lisa & Zoe) laughing in a gorgeous cinematic way. The video also includes actor Will Peltz and his model girlfriend, Kenya Kinski-Jones along with a plethora of other models living precious Calvin Klein minutes. The entire campaign helps you to appreciate time and how you choose to keep up with it.

Hair of the Week: Chanel Iman at W Mag “It Girl” Luncheon

Arianne SuggsUpdated on January 29, 2016January 13, 2016Leave a Comment

Supermodel Chanel Iman attended W Mag’s “It Girl” Luncheon this week and she certainly looked the part! Iman dazzled in a two-piece Jamie Lee white pearl and lace off the shoulder ensemble. She accessorized her sultry little number with Jewelmer Joaillerie Pearl earrings from the Charleston collection. However, it was more than just her ethereal attire that caught our eye.

To compliment her stylish couture Chanel Iman wore her strands as a true crown of glory. The genius behind Chanel Iman’s gorgeous mane, Peter Anthony Perez, revealed that the hairstyle included a “texture crown braid.” This elegant hair look works great day or night and is a perfect transitional style for the upcoming spring season.

Keep this style from looking stiff by allowing baby strands as well as wisps of hair to flow freely. We love this hairstyle because it is example of effortless glamour that does not overpower the fashion. They simply compliment each other, just as they should.

Kevin Hart Debuts Nike “Hustle Hart” On Jimmy Fallon

Arianne SuggsUpdated on January 29, 2016January 13, 2016Leave a Comment

As much as we enjoy Jimmy Fallon performing with The Roots using musical toy instruments; last night’s Kevin Hart fashion moment was pretty cool as well. Hart showed off his kicks which are part of a collaboration with Nike due to be released later this year. At this point of time an exact date of the sneaker release is yet to be determined. Nevertheless, shoe industry experts are pinning a date for the collection for this coming April.

With the release Hart would become the very first actor/comedian/entertainer to ink a deal with Nike. What name has Kevin chosen to give to his shoes? Hart can definitely say that he ‘started from the bottom’ and hustled his way to stardom. Therefore, Kevin Hart’s trainers have been fittingly named, “Hustle Hart.” So far two colors have been showcased for the Nike Hustle Hart, red and blue.

For a project such as this consumer reaction as well as opinion is key. We took to the gram to get an early indication of what potential buyers may be currently thinking. Here are a few comments we gathered:

“Copping those.”

“Lol we need those.”

“They really aren’t that bad.”

“This gotta be Nike’s response to Ye.”

“These are dope.”

So far it looks like Nike and Kevin are on their way to a really big pay day. Congrats to Kevin Hart we wish you much fashion success and hope that this collaboration inspires others to Hustle Hart… oops we mean hard.

A beautiful dress for a beautiful woman who honestly looked like she has stopped aging over 20 years ago.

It is about time for the creation of the Image Maker Awards! As they say, behind every glamorous Hollywood star is a rockstar team of people.

Arianne SuggsUpdated on January 29, 2016January 12, 2016Leave a Comment

If you ever need to know how to drop the mic when it comes to style all you have to do is channel your inner Flotus! Michelle Obama attended her husband’s final State of the Union Address in an elegant yet boisterous tinted gown by Narciso Rodriguez.

As soon as Michelle Obama made her debut the fashion conscious took to social media discussing the tint of Obama’s ensemble. Some thought apricot but the Sleeveless Banded-Bodice Midi Dress was actually in Marigold. Good guesses though everyone!

Besides looking amazing on televisions across the country, Michelle Obama also put to rest a long held notion that she is not “known for her fashion influence.” Yeah… just let that thought sink in a little.

Nevertheless, the naysayers, haters and cynics were all silenced when news promptly spread that Michelle’s choice of dress had sold completely out! If you had wanted to get your hands on one sorry to tell ya, but some pretty lucky ladies beat us to the checkout cart.

From the runway to the State of the Union, the sold out Narciso Rodriguez dress.

Beauty Notes: Strong brows, eyeliner and neutral lip color made for a subtle yet stunning makeup look.
