While mixing in a new handbag or pair of shoes is an easy way to freshen your seasonal wardrobe, there are other cost-effective ways to accessorize. One simple yet visually powerful way to make a fashion statement is with a great pair of earrings. Whether you prefer studs, hoop earrings, clip-ons, or dangly styles, there’s a wide range to choose from, especially when shopping on Amazon. Many of the digital retailer’s options are priced under $20 but look much more expensive. While this may mean opting for metal alloys or other cost-effective materials instead of solid gold, rest assured that there are plenty of high-quality choices that’ll withstand frequent wear. (Yes, that goes for those of you who wear the same pair on repeat.) read more

Beyoncé Is Right: My Hair Isn’t Anyone’s Business

In the age of the professional beauty influencer-slash-beauty entrepreneur, brand ambassadors are expected to showcase a significant degree of transparency about the products they are promoting, as well as demonstrate how they work on themselves — celebrity brands aren’t an exception to this rule. Alicia Key’s skincare line, KEYS Soulcare, followed a public decision to ditch makeup altogether in 2016. Keys wore just her glowing bare face at high-profile events and photoshoots, helping legitimise the brand’s claims. Cay Skin, the sunscreen brand from Black supermodel Winne Harlow, was developed after Harlow reportedly experienced “a painful sunburn” that required emergency medical treatment and “permanently altered” the pattern of her vitiligo, a skin condition she says is “a treasured part of my identity as a woman, activist and model.” Meanwhile, Rihanna’s well-established Fenty Beauty makeup line comes with cute and relatable videos of her doing her makeup. Beyoncé and her brand are, evidently, following a reliable marketing strategy. Cécred has entered an oversaturated haircare market driven by highly knowledgeable consumers (Black women are the biggest consumers of haircare products in the world) and some had doubted whether the brand should rely solely on Beyoncé’s name alone to be successful and urged the private superstar to step into her influencer bag and give us a hair tutorial. And so she did. Complete with close-up shots of her scalp to prevent any allegations of hidden weave tracks. It felt like subtle shade to her haters — and I was here for it.  read more

There wasn’t a single guest at Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday party in London that didn’t show out in the style department, with the lady of the hour wearing a sheer, seafoam-green gown from her own spring/summer 2024 collection; her daughter Harper donning an elegant, floor-length silk slip; and each of the Spice Girls going with their individual takes on black-tie formal. (Yes, there was a reunion, and yes, it was perfect.) The look that stuck with me most from the event, however, was Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s, and it has a lot to do with the bag slung casually over her shoulder. read more
