Loving Her Look: Mary J. Blige Sizzles in Cool White

I pulled this from glamour.com and I agree with them. Mary looks hottt!!



Last night the music superstar showed which side of the white after Labor Day debate she’s on. Hey naysayers, you just might change your mind.



Blige, one of the stars of Tyler Perry’s new movie I Can Do Bad All By Myself, wore this chic bold-shoulder, suit-like dress to last night’s premiere. It’s sleek and sexy and everything the…

NARS’ Magic Wands

Courtesy of Style.com

When I chatted with NARS Cosmetics makeup artist Ayako backstage at 3.1 Phillip Lim last season, she was enthusiastically applying coat after coat of mascara to the army of Tao Okamoto doppelgängers that passed through her station. Why all the enthusiasm, you ask? Ayako wasn’t using just any mascara to get the lash intensity… Continue

EXCLUSIVE FROM STYLE.COM: SERENA WILLIAMS & NIKE UNVEIL HER LOOK FOR THE U.S. OPEN

Courtesy of Style.com





Officially, Fashion Week doesn’t start until September but a catwalk of sorts has popped up today in the Flatiron district in the surprising form of a tennis court, and the designer-to-watch is the number-two-ranked women’s tennis player in the world.

First Lady Obama's Fall Scent

Courtesy of Style.com

Call it an obsession with celebrity associations, but we’ve always been fascinated by the House of Creed. A family-run operation since 1760, the perfumery had been adopted as the official fragrance supplier to all of Europe’s royal courts by the nineteenth century—Queen Victoria wore Creed, as did Napoleon III and Empress Eugénie of France, Franz Joseph and Elisabeth of Austria-Hungary, and Queen…

Sowing in the Motherland

By Mobolaji Olambiwonnu

So here’s my thing…Africa is not the motherland. Don’t go there expecting people to be any more happy you came to visit than any brotha or sista you meet on the street in your city. People have got lives, and yes, that includes Africans. They have no more memory of our history than we do of theirs. Or, even worse, like many of us, they don’t know history at all and could care less what happened in the past when they can’t… Continue

Lame Chris Brown and The Queens of the Good Life

By Cameron Turner

AGE IS A LAME EXCUSE FOR CHRIS BROWN’S CRUELTY

Why do Chris Brown’s supporters keep harping on the act that Brown is young? Does being 19 really explain the vicious beat down that Chris apparently gave his girlfriend and fellow pop star Rihanna on the night before the Grammys? Actor/producer Mekhi Phifer, who executive produced and played a bit part alongside Chris in the family film “This Christmas,” links Brown’s…
