Spotted: Beyonce in NYC Getting Her MAC On!

Arianne Suggs July 2, 2015July 2, 2015Leave a Comment

Yesterday evening the one and only Queen Bey was spotted walking the streets of New York City in head-to-toe black. She looked chic in an asymmetrical cut-out dress, pointed toe heels and leather jacket. As we mentioned in a post last year wear your jackets like a cardigan to up the style factor. Come on, no diva or fashionista really needs to put her arms through sleeves anymore! That’s like SO 2013 (LOL) we have progressed people! (HaHa).

Let’s move down to the feet area for just a moment. Bey accessorized her ensemble with an ankle bracelet, that was not over-powering but enough to make a delicate statement. Ankle bracelets are trending and be sure to look out for our future post of some of our current favorite styles!

Nevertheless, didn’t we say that Beyonce was getting her MAC on? Well, she definitely was showing why she is a boss lady and say it with us… HUSTLER, by toting a silver Apple Macbook. We are sure that Apple is salivating over these shots as her legions of fans are probably currently burning their PCs in order to make the switch. Okay, you know our humor none of the sort is happening or maybe it’s just cool to see celebrities using the same products that we do!

Hey question! What do you think of Bey’s look, loving or hating? Let us know…

Solange Knowles Attends Pride Week 2015

Singer and DJ Solange Knowles was spotted looking fabulous while walking the streets of SOHO. Solange was in town in order to be in attendance for the NYC Pride and Kiehl’s Since 1851 Celebrate Pride Week 2015 event held in New York City. So then, what was Knowles wearing while taking part in celebrations on June 25th?

In world that believes that as time passes various fashion can fall into the “Oh that was so last season” category. Obviously, Solange did not receive that memo and neither does she care which is why she is a fashion risk-taker! Knowles was looking mellow yellow in an ensemble from the Harbison Fall 2013 collection. A bold move but shows that good fashion can never truly go out of style.

Yellow is a very bold tint but it is a shade that conveys happiness, joy and fun. Knowles has never been afraid to wear this boisterous shade and has rocked on numerous occasions. Just see for yourself and get inspired to give yellow a try!

Point of View: Gold Chained Heels

Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 26, 2015June 26, 2015Leave a Comment

I’m really excited about P.O.V. aka Point of View, one of our new video series on the 1966 Magazine Youtube channel! Over the years, I have found myself becoming more and more addicted to heels. I love when you go out and people instantly notice and compliment on the pair of choice for the night. Shoes are all the way down at the bottom of an ensemble so for someone to notice the shoes most truly be making a statement.

With that being said, many will ask me what shoes I’m wearing or even say they are going to go cop themselves a pair. So for all of you who love a good heel as much as you do I hope you enjoy seeing my personal collection. Here is the first video showcasing my gold chain heels, probably one of the heels I wear the most. I love them because you can pair them with jeans, jumpsuits, dresses, the works and everything seems to instantly go up a few style notches. Whether you are aiming for classy or edgy these heels just seem to deliver.

Hope you like the video and don’t forget to like and subscribe! 🙂

Streetstyle: Joan Smalls in NYC

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 17, 2022June 25, 2015Leave a Comment

Ever wonder how super-models choose to walk the streets fashion wise? Well, we spotted Joan Smalls in New York City posing it out during a quick photo shoot in Soho. The look was simple but very voguish thanks to sneakers, distressed denim and a white slightly tucked tee. Accessories were kept to a minimum with a chic watch and red fringe handbag.

Beauty Notes: Who says that you can’t or shouldn’t wear a dark lip during summer? Skip the makeup rules of lighter colors only during warmer months and wear a rebellious darker shade. Especially if you are wearing an edgy look like Joan the dark tint will add even more fierceness.

Joan’s look is a nice throwback to 90’s fashion that emerged from the grunge movement. So put on a little Nirvana (google if you must) and you will be sure to gain all the inspiration that you need!

Streetstyle: Alesha Dixon

Arianne Suggs June 20, 2015June 20, 2015Leave a Comment

We always love looking into international style because every area or region has an unique flavor. For instance, in London Alesha Dixon was seen arriving at the BBC RADIO 2 studio looking relaxed chic. Dixon wore a white tank, ripped denim pants, gold accessories, ankle boot heels and a killer hat.

As mentioned earlier this week distressed jeans are a simple way to add a little attitude or edge to your look. Keep things tamed by wearing very neutral and conservative pieces along with your emboldened denim. This will allow the pants to have more of the spotlight than having to compete with other loud fashions.

NeNe Leakes Sports a New Do’!

Arianne Suggs June 19, 2015June 19, 2015Leave a Comment

Reality starlet, actress and Broadway It Girl NeNe Leakes is showing why she is one of Atlanta’s baddest. NeNe rocked a brand new look this week which has deviated from her short hair cuts that she has worn for several years now. NeNe was one of the many celebrities in attendance for the amFar gala which was held in New York. Leakes wore a shimmery black dress, strappy heels and a new sassy hairdo’!

Leakes kept the blonde hair color but is now wearing long wavy hair with a side part. We think the hairstyle looks absolutely fab on NeNe and you can tell that she is feeling it! What prompted the change? Well, who can forget during last season’s escapades where a fellow RHOA (Real Housewives of Atlanta) cast member contrasted Leakes tresses to that of a pack of ramen. Definitely a low blow filled with buckets of shade.

Nevertheless, NeNe is not one to let any woman’s opinion deter her so the change was because she simply wanted it! We always say to rock a style not according to what the masses say but because it is a personal choice. So then, what do you think of NeNe’s new hair look, are you feeling it?

Rihanna Attends Christian Dior Fall 2015 Tokyo Show

We loved RiRi’s entire ensemble from head-to-toe which included boots, “stunna” shades, handbag and a fab denim dress! Rihanna was in attendance for the Christian Dior Fall 2015 Tokyo Show. The singer even took a moment to snap a quick shot with the CEO of Dior, Sidney Toledano.

Hair Notes: Rihanna has never shied away from taking risks when it comes to her fashion choices or numerous hairstyles. Rihanna’s fiery red locks looked gorgeous styled into vintage waves and a deep side part. Looks like old Hollywood glam made its way across the pond to trendy Tokyo!

Like those boots that Rihanna is rocking? Those shoes are from the Dior Resort 2016 collection.
