So I just received a hot pair of Serfontaine Black Fox Jeans in the mail and I’m already in *love*:
Made of soft cotton and elastane, the jeans are comfortable yet supremely flattering to any curvy girls’ body. Bonus: The ankle zipper adds a dash of fashion to your typical pair of skinnies. At $198 they’re a bit of a splurge, but I can see myself wearing these all summer…they’re definitely worth the investment! Peep a few styles here:

Our fashionista of the year Rih Rih did what she does best last night in New York, rocking an edgy ski inspired Gareth Pugh jacket with a black mini skirt, sunglasses, and a pair of Christian Louboutins:

Another victim of the recession, the title has definitively closed its doors.
An article in Daily Finance says, “Vibe enjoyed significant success in the late ’90s and early part of this decade as hip hop and R&B became the nation’s predominant forms of pop music. But in recent years the title has fallen on hard times … In February, it reduced its circulation and publishing frequency, cut salaries and moved employees to a four-day workweek to save money.”
I have so many warm memories of Vibe…tearing through one of my first issues featuring the Fugees; reading about the East Coast vs. West Coast beef; and gasping when they had the courage to put popstar Justin Timberlake on the cover.
Aside from its groundbreaking premier issues, Vibe represented some of the best journalism in its field. By courting the best authors and thinkers, Vibe was able to put an intelligent and well researched spin on the booming hip-hop industry.
I’ll miss Vibe’s 20 Questions, the fashion spreads done by the uber talented Memsor Kamaraké and Janelle Grimmond, and reading stories by authors like Karen Good and Serena Kim.
Artists Ciara and Lil Mama were at Rap-Up Magazine’s 4th Anniversary & Summer Issue Release Party this past Friday sporting what seems to be the new beauty must:
…two toned hairstyles. While most may opt for highlights or subtle light strands, Ciara and Lil Mama go for bold with blocks of platinum and golden brown placed side by side with raven black.
Keri Hilson debuted a similar color block style on the BET red carpet this weekend:
And Monica has been known to partake in edgy cuts with black and red….
But the style can easily tread the line between dynamic and dreadful…
Ebony Magazine chose Bombshells Alicia Keys, Tina Turner, Michelle Obama, and Halle Berry to cover their Summer Issue:
Celebrating women with the “It” Factor, the issue includes write ups and tributes to everyone from Naomi Campbell and Lil Kim to Condoleeza Rice and Oprah Winfrey.
Look for it on newsstands!
