MAKEUP DROP: Wu-Tang Clan x Milk Makeup Featuring Teyana Taylor

It’s all about the details. Milk Makeup recently spilled some beauty intel on their latest makeup collaboration with hip hop’s royalty, Wu-Tang Clan. The brand talked about what you can expect from the collection down to the packaging as well as their roots with the musical group. Milk says,

“We are unleashing a limited-edition collection of 8 luxe lip colors in collaboration with Wu Tang Clan; featuring Teyana Taylor. [The collection] balances Chinese ingredients with high-payoff colors.

The longwear lip colors, each [are] named after eight earthly elements. Housed in a specially made component, revealing a custom sculpted dragon upon opening.

Wu-Tang and Milk Makeup have joined forces for a TRYE NYC collab. Which pays homage to our underground NYC roots and celebrates self-expression, strength; and the evolving connection between us.

Our history with Wu-Tang Clan runs deep. Milk first came together with Wu-Tang back in 2012 to launch NYFW; with a historic concert in the Milk Gallery. And we even have a product named after on of the groups songs.

Our collaboration packaging features Wu-Tang’s famed “W.” And an original graphic that combines the Mandarin character for beauty with Milk Makeup’s logo.”

The packaging is pretty fierce. Honestly, at first glance you will think it’s more of a collectible than lip product. However, for such an iconic collab, we would not expect anything less.

Furthermore, it looks like we are not the only one’s having mini heart attack over this collection drop. The star of the Milk Makeup visuals, Teyana Taylor, had a few things to say as well as about the Wu-Tang makeup. She states,

“Enter the realm. Y’all know I’ve always been a warrior. That’s why it was only right that I teamed up with my boy Rza and Wu-Tang for this dope lipstick collab with Milk Makeup. This is truly a dream come true!”

Spotted: Rihanna Rocks Burberry Fall 2016 Coat in NYC

Arianne SuggsUpdated on January 11, 2017January 11, 2017Leave a Comment

We never tire of a stylish Rihanna sighting. The fashion icon knows how to keep us all on our swank toes regardless of the season. It may be cold outside in the streets of New York City, however Rihanna is still bringing the trendy heat. What did she wear? Last night we spotted the singer and actress in a ritzy Burberry Fall 2016 Coat.

Spotted: Rihanna Rocks Burberry Fall 2016 Coat in NYC

Recent style sightings of Rihanna have included more laid back fashions as she shoots scenes for her new movie. An all female version of Ocean’s Eleven. However, yesterday Rihanna had to let everyone know she still knows her way around designer labels. She killed it in a green snakeskin coat from the Burberry Fall 2016 collection.

What we love most about RiRi is that she is not afraid to take risks. The particular coat she wore was styled completely different than it was on the runway. Actually, it was a total 180. Burberry’s catwalk look was more formal and incorporated more prints.

Nevertheless, Rihanna paired her Burberry Fall 2016 coat with pink sweat pants as well as a pink sweat shirt with a hoodie. A perfect example on how to blend high-end with more relaxed pieces.

Styling Notes: Who says sandals have to only be worn during warmer weather? If we have said it once, we will say it again, great fashion knows no bounds! Just because it is not spring or summer, it does not mean you have to retire one set of shoes for closed-in ones. If you are not going to be exposed to the elements for extended amounts of time go ahead and break out heels with the more open design.

Rihanna Stuns in Gucci Spring/Summer 2016 Dress

Arianne SuggsUpdated on May 26, 2016May 26, 2016Leave a Comment

As of late, Rihanna just seems to make the fashion world turn. Whether she is wearing vintage (hello 2016 Billboard Awards look) or a modern frock she just grabs attention. Tonight RiRi was spotted enjoying herself in New York City and looking fabulous at the same time. The world’s favorite badgal heated up the streets in a wait for it… $3,500 Gucci spring/summer 2016 green lace dress.

If the price tag of Rihanna’s $3,500 Gucci spring/summer 2016 green dress made your mouth drop down to the ground you might as well leave it down there. We are not done yet. We still have to tell you about her outfit’s accessories. Okay, everyone deep breaths…

Most likely after the dress you noticed the boots. Those bad boys are Gucci too. They are the Gucci Finnlay Leather High Heel Boots retailing for $1,990. However, the splurge worthy details do not end with those glorious lace-up shoes. Jewelry anyone?

Rihanna adorned herself with a $11,500 Dior Cannage Bracelet, Jacquie Aiche’s Cameo Rings and $4,690 Diamond Halter Bra. And oh yeah, what’s a chic look without a handbag. RiRi toted a $3,400 Spring 2016 Christian Dior Diorever Bag. Oh and yes if you were really studying the fashions worn during this past 2016 Billboard Awards you most likely notice a few familiar looking bracelets. Looks like RiRi is still in love with her $14,500 Temptation Three-Prong Bracelets and $18,900 Lorelei Ribbon Diamond Bracelet. We finally get to be corny here… Rihanna shined bright like a diamond!

Therefore, in conclusion Rihanna walked around in NYC in thousands upon thousands of dollars. Not in her wallet or designer bag, but literally on her. Not that, ladies and gents is the true definition of a bad Bih…or shall we say Rih?

Hair of the Week: Ciara’s Voluminous Waves Announcing BBMAs!

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 13, 2016April 13, 2016Leave a Comment

Ciara’s hair this week made us want to get up and one, two step! Her tresses looked like they belonged in the grand state of Texas where everything is bigger. Ciara’s gorgeous voluminous waves spotted in NYC was quite fitting for the humongous news she had in her possession for this year’s BBMAs!

The BBMAs better known as the Billboard Music Awards are fast approaching in order to honor the best of the best in music. Ciara was on hand with hip hop artist Ludacris in New York City to announce this year’s nominees. However, the announcement would not be the only time we see this dynamic duo together in 2016. Ciara and Ludacris will be the hosts of the 2016 BBMAs next month!

This will not be Ludacris’ first stab at hosting one of the year’s hottest musical events. Like the Los Angeles Lakers and Chicago Bulls Ludacris will 3-peat this year. So then, let us give a quick round of applause to Luda for scoring yet another hosting spot on the BBMAs.

Luda and CiCi make a great pairing for the show. They already have a smash hit under their belts due to working together. If the song Ride It came to mind go ahead and brush your shoulder off. You sir/ma’am are a music “G.”

Before this post closes let’s get back to that hair! Ciara scores our Hair of the Week award due to sheer volume alone. For weeks Ciara has rocked braids, updos and mostly very loose hanging waves. However, CiCi changed up her hair game by letting out her inner diva. She is serving us Diana Ross glamour. Moreover, the deep middle part gives her locks even more sleek attitude. We love it and hope to see more of it.

Congratulations to all of this year’s musical nominees. You can catch this year’s BBMAs hosted by Ciara and Ludacris on May 22nd. The show will air live on ABC network at 8/7c.

This week E! Network correspondent, Zuri Hall, made a major fashion statement in a “New York minute.” Hall dazzled in a white couture suit by The Kooples as she strutted her stuff down the streets of NY. Nevertheless, it wasn’t all just about looking good, Hall was taking care of business!

Zuri told fans that she had achieved a new career pinnacle. One that was more like a life goal that she could now proudly scratch off her bucket list. Therefore, what big assignment and achievement did Hall accomplish? Zuri explained,

“I just moderated a NBC Universal panel in front of CEOs & execs, about branded content strategy! Taking the stage in the legendary SNL Studio= A bucket list (check mark).”

Well, just go on with your bad self Zuri! For a moment let’s get back to that bad and fab suit by The Kooples. How did Hall finish off her ensemble?

Editor Pick: Rihanna’s Dries Van Noten Leather Jacket

Arianne Suggs March 28, 2016March 28, 2016Leave a Comment

If I had to deem one item of clothing as being totally badazz it would have to be a leather jacket. Maybe it’s because it literally takes a hammer in order to beat it into submission to flatten stitches and have it take form. Or then again it could be the decades of Hollywood films that have shown action heroes and bad guys as well as girls wearing one thus giving off an exclusive “cool factor.” Whatever it may be the reason one fact remains… it’s just simply an iconic look. With that in mind, a Dries Van Noten leather jacket spotted on a sexy music star is fitting that description to a “T.”

How do you take a classic couture statement and make women want to wear it over and over again? As any major designer knows you have to revision it and make it fresh again. The leather jacket has been modernized season after season with details ranging from sleek to intricate.

I’m infatuated with the Dries Van Noten leather jacket spotted on Rihanna as she made her way through the streets of NYC. The embellishments make it an edgy, yet fun jacket to want to sport. Absolutely love all of the patchwork, pins and hanging key chains that have give the Dries Van Noten leather jacket an effortless rocker vibe. Being nicknamed Badgal RiRi it is like she was born to wear this jacket. It completely fits her style and aesthetic.

Rihanna turns heads with her designer threads. How did she finish off her look? Here is a style cheat sheet:

Pants: Citizens of Humanity Avedon Slick Skinny Jeans in Axel

Shoes: Celine Optic White Spring 2016 Rodeo Boots

Hat: X Girl Twill Logo Cap

Sunglasses: Adam Selman x Le Specs The Hunger Glasses in Satin Black.

Handbag: Dior Diorever Tote Spring 2016

Jewels: Dior Cannage Bracelets

All in all Rihanna’s outfit would retail for over $16,000! However, would we expect prices to be any less for designer fashions? Of course not and our lovely RiRi only deserves the best for all of her hard “work” (sorry, still addicted to the song LOL).

Arianne Suggs July 29, 2015July 29, 2015Leave a Comment

It seems as though everyone who has visited or been spotted walking the streets of New York City have brought their “A” game. From Brandy to Rihanna starlets have flexed their style power mercilessly for the cameras. The latest diva to shut it down is no other than the queen herself, our Bey.

Beyonce caused a media firestorm when she stepped out in a Dolce & Gabbana ensemble. Her curvy physique had those florals blooming in a sexy good way. Moreover, that hair was whipped child! We loved her voluminous blonde shoulder length wavy strands. Her hair read care-free and fun yet sophisticated.

Beautiful Black Women: Rihanna at 1OAK Nightclub in NYC

Arianne Suggs July 21, 2015July 21, 2015Leave a Comment

Rihanna has been lighting up NYC with her glorious fashion presence for weeks now. Whether it’s been a trip to the gym, studio or out for a fabulous night on the town Rihanna has been an absolute stunner. Where has the singer been spotted as of late?

RiRi was seen having some good times at the 10AK Nightclub in Southampton, NYC. Rihanna sported a strappy little black dress, curly updo and metallic heels. The sheer trend continues to go strong as Rihanna bared glimpses of her killer shape.

Beauty Notes: We always emphasis that nails can make a powerful statement as much as any piece of clothing. Rihanna’s gorgeous red nails packed just as much punch as her sexy gown.

And she wasn’t the only one spotted at 10AK:

Rihanna didn’t party it up alone she even grabbed a snapshot with model/actress and reality star, Cynthia Bailey.

Gabrielle Union Rocks Denim On Denim

Arianne Suggs July 10, 2015July 10, 2015Leave a Comment

Actress Gabrielle Union is one of the many celebrity sightings this week in NYC. Gabrielle was spotted leaving Milk Studios after taking part in a photo shoot. Union blessed The Big Apple with her fashion presence by rocking a trend that at times can be quite challenging to pull off. That trend is the denim on denim.

Women have worn long denim gowns or the denim suit with some successes or needing to be put on the worst dress list. However, Gabrielle is a sterling example on how to wear this trend correctly. Union matched the correct denim tint when it came to her skirt and top so that the rinses were not so far apart in shade. Also, by revealing a few touches of skin it helped to break up the monotony of the look. Her neutral accessories kept the outfit relaxed keeping the attention on the coolness of the jeans.
