Who Wore it Better? Marjorie Harvey vs. Marlo Hampton in Monot’s White Triangle Train Top

Two fashionistas with very distinctive styles were recently spotted in the same $575 Monot Triangle Train Top! We all remember the Paris Couture Week style take over carried out by Steve and Marjorie Harvey. During that time, stylist Elly Karamoh dressed Marjorie in the opulent look for a date now out in the city.

While Marjorie Harvey paired hers with slim fit Monot Flare Ankle Slit Trousers pants, Marlo Hampton opted for wide legged trousers while attending day 1 of Bravo Con early this month.

Letitia Wright and Ryan Coogler Honor Chadwick Boseman at the Wakanda Forever Premiere

It’s been two years since we lost Chadwick Boseman, but he hasn’t left our minds or hearts. In his two-decade career he made his mark in movies and television, scooping up coveted awards (two SAGs, a Golden Globe, a Critic’s Choice Movie award and a Primetime Emmy, to name a few). Still, no sentimental statue could ever measure up to his work on bringing the Black Panther to life.

Before his passing, Boseman made major cultural impact playing the Black Panther, a movie credited as one of the best films of 2018 and the first superhero film nominated for Best Picture at the Academy Awards.

With the incoming release of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, it’s clear that family, friends and fans are feeling the lose more than usual, but despite his absence, his presence was still felt at the L.A premiere.

Letitia Wright, who acted alongside Boseman as King T’Challa’s tech genius sister Shuri, arrived to the premiere in an Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer 2023 suit. The dazzling ensemble features a tailored jacket with satin notch lapels, a cutaway waist and back finished with crystal harness embroidery.

You may have noticed the crystal harness jacket coupled with a single pleat bootcut trouser over McQueen’s Punk Chelsea Boot looks familiar. There’s a good chance you’re mind is being triggered to recall the Givenchy Spring 2018 Couture look Boseman wore to the 90th Academy Awards in 2018.

While no word has been released from Letitia Wright or her stylist Shiona Turni on whether Boseman’s 2018 ensemble inspired this look, we’re willing to bet this was no happenstance. Sometimes the universe works in sentimentally styilish ways.

However, we do know director Ryan Coogler also brought a little Chadwick with him to the premiere. Wearing a white on white satin ensemble, Coogler accessorized with a gold and onyx dog tag necklace imprinted with a photo of Chadwick.

While we eagerly await the release of Wakanda Forever, we can rest assured that Chadwick Boseman’s legacy continues to build and stays top of mind.

RIP Chadwick. Wakanda forever.

Why is the M9 Bayonet | Fade Called a Special Knife in CS:GO?

Despite its appearance, in CS:GO the knife doesn’t provide any advantage to its owner. When using a knife, the player will be able to gain enormous movement speed — it might even be the maximum. There will be approximate intervals before strikes in the cutting attack mode, but in addition there is also a stabbing option. With the latter, the attacks will be much faster, but the damage will be much less, so most players prefer the cutting mode. It is capable of killing an opponent with two blows from the front; just one is enough to kill him from behind. 

It must be remembered that each knife, including the M9, has its own sounds that opponents hear. For example, pulling out a knife will be silent to the enemy, but if you start scratching the wall with it, the enemy will certainly hear and turn around to kill such a player.

M9 Bayonet | Fade — What Are its Features?

If we talk about animation, then m9 bayonet fade is fully consistent with its appearance: a bold and bright version. When spectating, for example, the player will be able to observe the character holding its cold weapon, from all angles. The most interesting animation is pulling the knife out of the pocket, in which case the player will twist the knife a little in their own palms, similar to the usual bayonet.

If the user has an M9 in their hands, they will have a very fast movement speed, which is used for tactical purposes. The most obvious and competent use of a knife is to quickly hit the point desired by the user.

There are two types of M9 attack in the game:

  1. Fast type. This type of strike implies fast attacks, which at the same time will cause an insignificant amount of damage;
  2. Slow type. With this form of attack, the knife can wreak more damage, but the level of speed will not be phenomenal.

The M9 bayonet bears a clear resemblance to knives of a similar nature. The approximate length of the blade of the M9 is 18 centimeters, and the total length can reach 30cm. It is important that the blade is narrow.

M9 Bayonet | Fade — A Great Option?

This skin has a high price compared to other skins of this knife. The blade is covered with pink, orange, purple and gray colors, which are beautifully combined and as if they cannot be without each other. The handle of the knife is unpainted and has the usual black color.

Let’s take a look at the exteriors. In this case, there are only two options:

  • Factory New;
  • Minimal Wear.

There are no particular differences between the exteriors or price.

As we noted earlier, this skin is quite rare, so there are not many offers on the market. The cost of such a knife starts at $1,100 (Factory New). It makes it a good investment that can bring additional income, because so many users hunt this item in order to keep it for themselves to make a profit.
