Arianne SuggsUpdated on November 20, 2017November 20, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Yara Shahidi AMAs 2017 chic Prada ensembles. The Black-ish starlet showcased her fierce style while in attendance for the 2017 American Music Awards. This year’s ceremony was broadcast from Los Angeles, California.

You Asked: Yara is too beautiful for words. Her spirit, her natural beauty and her fearlessness with her clothes is all something I admire. Last night, I noticed that her outfits looked the same but different. Wasn’t sure if she had changed or not, but she look cute. Was her looks by the same people or something?

Ask and Tell: Yara Shahidi AMAs 2017 Prada Looks of the Night

The Verdict: Thank you for the fashionable question and Yara is a total knockout! We are so proud of all of her success and can’t wait for her new spinoff show! Nevertheless, we digress (wink, wink).

Miss Shahidi last night did have an outfit change, so then you are very correct in your style observation. Furthermore, the reason her two fun looks favored is because they were by the same fashion label, Prada.

For the red carpet, Yara wore a straight off the runway look from the Prada Spring 2016 RTW (ready to wear) collection. Moreover, as the night progressed celebrity stylist Jason Bolden switched up Shahidi’s AMAs couture game with a stunning custom Prada ensemble.

Ask and Tell: Ciara AMAs 2017 Alexandre Vauthier Couture Look

Arianne Suggs November 19, 2017November 19, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Ciara AMAs 2017 Alexandre Vauthier Couture Look. CiCi set the red carpet ablaze in her hot noire designer garb while attending the 2017 American Music Awards ceremony held in Los Angeles, California.

You Asked: Yasss Ciara! She snatched my whole wig then through it back at me! Please tell me she is wearing. I honestly think since becoming a mom she has come into her own especially with her clothes. She looks amazing and I hope that she gives us an album soon.

Ask and Tell: Ciara AMAs 2017 Alexandre Vauthier Couture Look

The Verdict: Thank you for the awesome question and we concur… we want a new Ciara album and she also definitely looked like one hot mama tonight! Mrs. Wilson rocked a sexy LBD (little black dress) by the exquisite Alexandre Vauthier. The couture design hails from the fashion label’s Fall 2017 collection.

Ciara kept her stylish ensemble pretty close to the original runway look which included a very chic pair of knee high noire boots. So then, what was the difference? Ciara’s “wet” hairstyle which we thought added even more sultry allure to her red carpet OOTD! Therefore, major shout out to her stylists Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn.

Zendaya To Star/Produce A White Lie- 1st Black Woman to Graduate From Vassar

Arianne SuggsUpdated on November 14, 2017November 14, 2017Leave a Comment

She may already have a new film coming to a theater near you, however, that is not slowing Zendaya Coleman down one bit! The actress/singer is beginning work on a brand new project entitled, A White Lie, that will tell the tale of the first black woman to graduate from a top private college. Furthermore, A White Lie, will not just star the budding superstar, but Zendaya is also set to produce the flick as well. Ugh… Girl crush goals unlocked!

Zendaya To Star and Produce A White Lie- 1st Black Woman to Graduate From Vassar

The premise of A White Lie is the story of a young woman by the name of Anita Hemmings, who was able to beat the odds and attain the goal of higher learning. The catch? Hemmings came from a line of slaves and wished to attend Vassar during the 1890s. The only way for Anita to achieve this feat during this particular time period was if she could pass as a white woman.

Does she succeed? Sorry loves no spoilers here because the story is just too good. You will just have to see the film! Okay… honestly, if you don’t want to know yet, stop reading after the next paragraph. If you are a free movie spirit press on!

This upcoming movie on Anita Hemmings is based on the book, The Gilded Years, by Karin Tanabe. Zendaya is producing A White Lie along with actress Reese Witherspoon and company, Hello Sunshine. The script will be written by writer, Monica Beletsky.

A White Lie – Reese With the Deets

Witherspoon recently took to social media to talk about the new film. She says,

“Every day with these women is even more inspiring than the last! Can’t wait to share our new project, A White Lie, with you very soon. Zendaya will produce and star as the first African-American woman to graduate from Vassar. Monica Beletsky will write the script and Hello Sunshine will produce. What a team and what a story.”

As you wait for this captivating true story to come to life you can still catch Miss Daya on the big screen. She stars opposite Zac Efron as trapeze artist, Anne Wheeler, in the “The Greatest Showman.”
