Cover Girls: Halle Berry for Ebony Magazine

So remember the other week when I attended the Ebony Mag + Macy's For The Love of Color event? Well I had a little chit-chat with the Editor-in-Chief of Ebony Magazine and she mentioned that March's issue was going to be amazing. Well, she wasn't lying. Peep who's on their cover...

Hot! Will this woman ever look bad? What do you think about the cover? Soundoff below!

Confessions of a Shopaholic: Banana Republic Spring 2011

 

Take a look at Banana Republic’s Spring 2011 campaign, dubbedb "Journey in Style". The folks over at BR sent me these images and this preview of their fashion trailer, inspired by the brand’s heritage of discovery...

Drawing on the themes of exploration, travel, and the classic American road trip, Banana Republic has released a beautiful film trailer– a first for the brand – starring models Angela Lindvall and Jamie Dornan. Take a peek - makes me wanna go on vacay/go shopping...

What do you think? Will you be shopping Banana Republic's spring collection?

Fierce or Foolish: Meagan Good

Actress Meagan Good was spotted out partying in ATL wearing the following outfit...

I don't know about you all but this gets a "Foolish" from me. This gray top looks like one that should be saved for lounging around the house when no one is looking. Slapping a fancy belt on it doesn't change the fact that it's an oversized gray tank. I like her makeup though. 

What's the verdict? Fierce or Foolish? Soundoff below!

Ebony Mag + Macy's For The Love of Color Event

Last Thursday night, I had the pleasure of attending a collaborative event hosted by Ebony Magazine & Macy's called For The Love of Color. A commemorative fashion exhibit in honor of the late Eunice Johnson, the event was chock full of color & style. I had the pleasure of running into celebrity stylist June Ambrose again. I hadn't seen her since last September's Fashion's Night Out so of course I was enthralled.

 Ms. Ambrose is the queen of the fierce turban, so when she complimented mine I almost fainted - what an honor. Here she is with my girl Claire of TheFashionBomb.

I also ran into my fave beauty guru Sam Fine. I was so proud to be wearing my Iman Cosmetics bronzer that he specifically recommended I try during his last blogger event. (Check out Sam Fine's Top 10 Beauty Lessons for more on that.) He says I'm too light-handed, "More is more honey!" Next time I'll go a little more intense.

I also ran into Desiree Rogers, former White House Social Secretary and now CEO of Johnson Publishing. She looked absolutely amazing in Louis Vuitton. 

 Isn't she fab? Can't wait to see how they revamp Ebony Mag. Stay tuned!
