    Hot! or Hmm… : Beyonce in London

    by Claire

    Beyonce was recently spotted in London looking like she just emerged from the pool:

    Beyonce in London

    She topped of a pair of red peep toes and acid washed jeans with a slim fitting tank and Ray-Ban sunglasses. I think she’s going for the wavy hair look, but might not have read our post from yesterday–looks like she needs some Defrizz, hmm…

    What do you think?

    André Leon Talley and Isabel and Ruben Toledo Tell Recent Graduates: Don’t Give Up!

    by Claire

    Check out the video below for an inspirational message from André Leon Talley and Isabel and Ruben Toledo:

    Andre Leon Talley

    André says, “Don’t give up even if it takes you 30 years…It doesn’t matter as long as you have within your universe something that sustains you every day until your goal is met….It’s not time that matters, it’s the quality of work, the quality of the vision, and the quality of the dream.”

    I’m in it for the long haul, aren’t you? I’m locked in as Diddy would say!

    Leave a comment and tell us how you’re following your passion.

    Thanks to HipCandy for the heads up!

    Beauty Bomb: Summer Hair Buys!

    by Claire

    Hey!
    So today kicks off our first Beauty Tuesday, where we give you fashionistas the scoop on how to complete your look with makeup, hair, and beauty advice!
    On top of Adriana’s fabulous makeup post, we’re also having contributing writer Eileen give us a few tips today on how to keep your straight, wavy, or natural do’s fly for the summertime:

    african-american-summer-hair

    Fashion & Beauty go hand in hand, so read on!  If you love the idea of Beauty Tuesdays let us know and leave a comment.

    Enjoy!
    ********************************************

    Hey there all your Beauty/Fashion Bombers!
    Summer is right around the corner, so The Fashion Bomb is sharing the best products to keep your hair frizz free, luscious and moisturized on the hottest summer day!

    For straight or permed hair:

    Summer Hair

    For a slick look after a dip in the pool or ocean, make sure you pack Carol’s Daughter Hair Balm ($12, www.carolsdaughter.com).

    Carol's Daughter Hair Balm

    The rich combination of Soy and Sweet Almond oil leaves hair moisturized, shiny and manageable without the build up. Also don’t forget a smoothing shampoo and conditioner like Aveda’s Smooth Infusion Shampoo and Conditioner ($20 each, www.aveda.com):

    Aveda’s Smooth Infusion™ Shampoo and Conditioner

    The products contain organic aloe, maize and guar bean, tamanu oil and hydrolyzed wheat protein complex–all great ingredients to soften hair, manage frizz, repair and protect your lovely locks!

    For natural hair:

    Erykah Badu Natural Hair

    Make sure to treat your locks, twists and braids with moisturizing products that contain vitamins and natural ingredients like shea butter, olive oil and vitamin E. Deep condition weekly with Hamadi Shea Hair Mask ($24 at www.folica.com), which has fabulous 100% organic ingredients like avocado, vanilla, ylang ylang, aloe vera and shea butter.

    hamadi

    One fun fact Fashion Bombers… shea butter has natural sunscreen so it protects your strands and scalp from ultraviolet damage.

    Curly or Wavy Hair:

    Beyonce Wavy Hair

    It’s all about pre and post heat treatments for ladies with curly or wavy locks! Use Drop Dead Hair Straightening Baume by Philip B ($24 at www.philipb.com) for pre blow-drys or roller sets:

    dropdeadbaume_6oz1

    This non-greasy, water soluble styling aid gives curly or wavy hair a straight, tangle-free, bouncy finish thanks to its pure extracts of Matricaria, Althea and Horseradish.

    Finish off all your looks with a lightweight smoothing balm like Bumble and Bumble Defrizz ($15 for 2 oz. at www.bumbleandbumble.com):

    Bumble and Bumble Defrizz

    Whether you’re curly, natural, or straight this balm creates a barrier against humidity, and can also be used before, during and after styling all hair types to give you soft and silky strands.

    Now go forth and get gorgeous!

    ~Eileen
