Spotted Nicki Minaj in La Perla Neoprene Desire Jumpsuit3

How did you spend your Labor Day Weekend? Nicki Minaj chose to heat things up in Sin City. The sassy hip hop artist was spotted in Las Vegas in sexy designer duds. Scroll on dolls, we breakdown Nicki Minaj in La Perla Neoprene Desire Jumpsuit and the rest of her hot OOTD!

Okay Nicki baby we see you girl! Miss Minaj posed it out for the cameras in a La Perla Neoprene Desire Jumpsuit which retails for $3,844. The detailing of the jumpsuit showed off Nicki’s sought after physique and cough, girls (LOL).

The cute jumpsuit also includes cut-outs that trace the shapely outline of the lady wearing it. We love this aspect because it gives the illusion of a smaller form. Therefore, if you are packing like a girl from a Sir Mix A Lot music video then this fashion will give you a more slimming effect instantly. It is just like if you were to wear stripes vertically instead of horizontally. Here’s a closer look at her La Perla jumpsuit:

The lingerie inspired trend continues to gain speed among the rich and famous. You may be reminded of Amber Rose’s Tom Ford slash La Perla VMAs look. Nevertheless, we digress.

Minaj finished off her ensemble with nude tinted heels and a Chanel handbag. Her jewelry stayed within the gold family. Accessories included a watch, rings and chain link bracelet.

Hair Notes: Nicki Minaj rocked some serious hair down-to-there with her La Perla Neoprene Desire Jumpsuit. Moreover, she kept her tresses straight and sleek. The overall combination reads seductive and foxy chic.

Breast Enhancement Thanks to Good Old Exercise

Breast Enhancement Thanks to Good Old Exercise

If you are lacking motivation to hit the gym regularly maybe the thought of larger breast may help. Not all of us are born with awesome knockers like Tyra, Janet and Halle Berry. However, we can perk up our girls with a little effort and dedication. Here’s how to achieve breast enhancement thanks to good old exercise.

Breast Enhancement Thanks to Good Old Exercise

If it were easy everyone would do it. We are not going to kid you and tell you that breast enhancement through exercise is going to be a walk in the park. Nevertheless, it will not be as bad as you think. All you really need to do in the coming weeks is be consistent. If you are dedicated then a shapelier physique shall be yours!

The concept is simple: build and lift them up. To give your boobs a little more spotlight you need to exercise your chest muscles. In a world where everyone wants a better and bigger booty the chest can get ignored. Nonetheless, working out your chest muscles just two or three times a week can give you a sexier bust without going under the knife.

Why Does Exercise Work?

As you know boobs are just glorified fat. Underneath these sexy fat gems lie your chest muscles. Strengthening and toning said muscles starts a chain reaction. Boobs become more defined and begin to rise.

For instance, when you do squats what happens in time? The butt becomes more toned and defined. It also heads north and lifts up. All of this occurs because of the muscles in this area being worked and challenged. This principle works with the chest as well.

What exercises should be performed to enhance the bust? Chest flys are excellent for making the chest even sexier. Here’s how to perform using dumbbells:

  1. Starting Position: Lie flat on your back then with a dumbbell in each hand. Raise dumbbells so that palms face each other and arms form a wide circle or arch.
  2. Movement: From the arch position lower arms to the side till you feel a stretch at the chest.
  3. Return: Lift arms back up to starting position and that is one rep. Think as in two seconds down and two seconds back up to the start position. Do 3 sets of 12 reps.

Old Fashion

If you do not own any exercise equipment an old school move can still get you results. Push-ups are classic and very effective. Moreover, since they can easily be performed anywhere there are no excuses when it comes to succeeding in breast enhancement.

Another way to achieve breast enhancement through exercise is to focus not just on the chest muscles. Strengthening and toning up your core muscles and upper back is also key. Doing so will help you stand taller instead of slouching. As a result, your chest will look even more elevated and alluring.

8 Black Celebrities Prove Blonde Hair Is Fun

8 Black Celebrities Prove Blonde Hair Is Fun

You have probably heard it time and time again that blondes have more fun. Maybe it is because blonde hair color is a bold tint for black hair or maybe it is just exciting to try out new hair colors. Nevertheless, our favorite celebrities can’t seem to get enough of the golden shade!

We have complied a list of 8 black celebrities to prove our point, but before we get into that we decided to give a little hair advice to help maintain blonde tinted hair. Color treated locks need to be handled gently and with great care in order to protect it from damage. Here are some tips:

  1. Use heat styling tools on a lower heat setting to protect tresses that may be more fragile due to the coloring process.
  2. The lightening/highlighting process is no joke, in-between salon visits treat hair with plenty of conditioning treatments to help strands rebuild from any damage.
  3. Keep blonde color from growing dull by using a clarifying shampoo every few weeks.
  4. Base your hair color on how much money and time you are willing to invest in order to maintain it.
  5. Keep hair strong by using a strengthening spray formulated for color treated hair on a weekly basis.

Now what you have been waiting for, some blonde hair inspiration just in case you are on the fence about taking the blonde plunge.

Black Hairstyles: Nicki Minaj Alexander Wang Fall 2015 Show

Black Hairstyles Nicki Minaj Alexander Wang Fall 2015 Show2

She has gone from black to blonde and now she is back to black tinted hair. Nicki Minaj is definitely getting our “Fried, Dyed and Fabulously Laid to the Side” award! Nicki was front row for the Alexander Wang Fall 2015 runway show and wore her long locks up in a high ponytail with a full bang. We loved the thicker texture of her hair instead of a tail of super sleek strands. A simple hairstyle that still screams I am a Diva.
