Hair Chronicles: Do Blondes Really Have More Fun?

So it’s that time again! What time you ask? It’s time for me to switch up my “do.” I’ve been rocking a full head weave for the last seven weeks and I must quickly decide what I want to do next. I want something spicy and and fun, but also easy to manage and maintain. I’m thinking of a quick color change. I won’t dye my real hair, I can’t commit to something like that for a long period of time, but I do like the idea of going blonde (well partially) for the summer.

So what do you guys think, do blondes really have more fun?

Rock It or Drop It: The White Shoes Trend

By Janique Leave a Comment

When I think of white shoes, I think of the Mary Janes my mother used to make me wear when going to church on Easter or just on a nice spring day. I think of the little girls with the frilly lace socks and bows in their hair. Whenever I would see a grown woman with white shoes I would stare in amazement. I don’t know why but they just look awkward to me. I t may be the tile of shoe that I particularly see, but this was just something I could never get on board with.

Well for the spring season it appears that these are the new must haves. Now just because tons of celebs rock white shoes it doesn’t mean that you have to run out and buy a pair. Just because it is of the moment doesn’t mean that it is for you. Here are a few pics of some celebs rocking this trend.

I think I am too traumatized to even go near a white shoe but some celebs have been changing the minds of many, check them out.

So will you be partaking in this trend?

Picture Perfect: Ciara for Annex Magazine

By Janique Leave a Comment

Ciara is gearing up for the release of her new album “One Woman Army.” In between rehearsals, trips to Paris, recording and boo loving with Future, she is also turning heads with her new cover for Annex Magazine. Her new single “Body Party” which happened to be written by Future is my new jam! It samples one of my all time favorite songs “My Boo” from Ghost Town DJs. Take a look at the double cover below.

Ciara would definitely kill the modeling game. Why do you think she was the muse for Givenchy? I love the contrast between both covers. One is definitely more “Avant Garde” and the other is more refreshing.

What do you think about Ciara’s covers for Annex Magazine?

HGB Style Files: Best Dressed of 2012

By Janique Leave a Comment

Can you believe that 2012 is quickly coming to an end? I feel like there is so much more in store for 2012! Well, while I deal with this realization, you can check out our list of the Best Dressed Fashionistas of 2012. These ladies have impeccable style and had an amazing 2012 either in film, TV, music, or other forms of entertainment. The only issue I had was ranking them in order, so this list will not be based on umber, just style in general. There is no “Number 1″ each lady is ranked equally. So here goes our list of Best Dressed of 2012!

Rihanna should be no surprise when it comes to best dressed lists. She is the style chameleon. Whenever there is a new album or a new movie in the works we know because her hairstyle changes. She softened up her look this year with blonde luxurious locks and then the adorable pixie cut. Although her antics have gone to an all new high, her style continues to stay at the steady pace of amazing. She makes things like pajamas wearable in the street. I’m sure the shenanigans will continue in 2013 as long as her style continues to evolve.

Solange is the only repeat from the 2011 list. Although she released new music late in the year, she had an amazing year. She had great campaigns with Carol’s Daughter, Madewell, and she was also spotted out and about DJing at various events. We expect nothing but the best from Solange in 2013

Brandy has come a long way from being Moesha. This year with the release of Two Eleven (her birthday) and she made a huge comeback. Brandy embodied the entire package from great hair, to great makeup, and even better outfits. She has evolved from the girl with the braids to the sophisticated woman with some edge. She knows when to keep it classy and when to spice it up a bit.

Ciara is getting ready to release her upcoming album “One Woman Army” and this year she was in full promo mode. No longer labeled as Kim Kardashian’s friend, Ciara brought it back to the music this year and she did it with style. Her killer legs had many women going to the gym! Her style continues to evolve. She follows her own rules and looks great doing it.

Who made your best dressed list?

2012 Black Girls Rock

By Janique Leave a Comment

This past weekend was the taping of BET’s Black Girl Rock at the Paradise Theatre in New York City. Despite some of the rachetness that BET produces, this is one of the more quality productions from the network. Founded by Beverly Bond, Black Girls Rock set out to provide young women of color with positive images of themselves, contrary to what the media portrays. Black Girls Rock introduces these young women to the arts and is dedicated to helping young women of color develop a healthy self-esteem and recognize their self worth by changing their perspective on life.

Here are a few photos of what to expect when the show airs on BET November 4, 2012
