Show Review: Ty Hunter’s Athleisure Collection Ty Hunter by Reflex

Ty Hunter unveiled his capsule collection in collaboration with Reflex and Six:02 last night at the Bowery Hotel.  The presentation was hosted by Alicia Quarles, who was outfitted in designs from the collection.  As small bites and cocktail circulated the room, we were able to take look, up close and personal, of the vivacious atheleisure line that officially launches today at the SIX:02 store (1460 Broadway).

During the presentation, Alicia and Ty engaged in a Q&A session that gave us deeper insight to the capsule collection.  “Fashion should be fun it shouldn’t be taken too seriously,” he explained.  The importance of loving yourself before you step into your clothes rang loud and clear. Ty recognizes how fashion can affect your self esteem so he made it his duty to create a line that is light and fun; the way fashion should be.

 The obvious question of the night was, what was the inspiration behind this collection? “Each piece in this collection was named after a woman who has inspired me.”  Ty paid homage to women in his life by creating garments that represent them.

The collection is amazing!  The vibrant explosion of color creates a cohesive line of clothing that you want to wear, no matter the occasion.  Shades of blue, yellow orange, pink and green really bring life to each garment. It won’t be hard to find a piece that can be worn beyond grocery store runs and jogs in the park.


The collection also offers more traditional pieces for the woman who strays away from bolder althleisure wear.  If you’re into t-shirts, sports bras and spandex pants, the subtle mix of color and cutouts will appeal to those who seek familiarity in sportswear.

Check out our gallery for the entire lookbook.  This is by far one of the best athleisure collections I’ve seen.  The line is available for sale today at SIX:02 in New York City.    You can meet Ty tonight at 6:02 pm at 1460 Broadway to purchase the limited edition capsule collection!  What do you think?  Are you loving Ty Hunter for Reflex?

XOXO- Marsha B.

Hot! or Hmm… Kim Kardashian’s LA Yeezy Season Season 4 Coat, Hermes Kelly Pochette Epsom Leather Bag and Vintage Valentino Sunglasses

Kim Kardashian was spotted out in LA in a Yeezy Season 4 Puffer coat, $15,000 Hermes Kelly Pochette Epsom Leather Bag and vintage Valentino Sunglasses from Open for Vintage:

 

The cream colored puffer jacket features a high neck and a snap closure.

Her Hermes epsom leather bag is textured, holds shape wonderfully and does not scratch very easily.

Kim wore sweatpants, a corset and vintage Valentino Sunglasses from Open for Vintage to complete her ensemble.

The Kardashian/Jenner sisters have a love for corsets!  They’ve been seen in the trend a lot lately.

This look is questionable to me.  The sweatpants, corset, puffer jacket and boots combo is a bit heavy for me.  What do you think?  Are you feelin’ it?

Throwback Thursdays #TBT: The Style Evolution of Fantasia

With a voice that can silence a room and leave the audience in awe or make us all get up and dance with her, no one can deny the sheer talent that is American Idol alum, Fantasia Barrino.

She sang her way to the top of the charts from nothing since winning the hit show’s third season and hasn’t looked back since.  Despite past struggles and tribulations, the North Carolina native has had major success over the last thirteen years, and her style has been topping a few charts as well.

In her early years, Fantasia definitely experimented with her look, especially when it came to her hair. From two-toned hairstyles to red asymmetrical pixie cuts, the singer was destined to stand out, though outfits of days past may not have been as polished back then.

  
  As the years progressed, we’ve seen a more refined woman, and a fabulous dresser, all thanks to stylists Shun Melson and Daniel Hawkins.  From lace to silk to sequins, Fantasia oozes glamor when she hits a red carpet. Whether in a fabulous pantsuit, or a Mugler blazer dress and Giuseppe Zanotti sandals, or gowns that drape the floor and hug her curves like her music hugs your soul, Fantasia is clearly living her best life and has never looked more stunning.
  

These days, she’s still singing arenas and concert halls down, but in her down time, she’s busy being a happy wife and a loving mother of two beautiful children. And that never goes out of style.
  So here’s to you, Fantasia!  A gifted, beautiful soul who proves with faith and the determination to win, nothing can stop you from achieving your dreams.
 What say you to this week’s pick?

Throwback Thursday: Vintage Visions- Naomi Sims

*This Black History Month Feature was originally published in November 2014.

I’ve always admired this woman. Her unparalleled beauty is beyond extraordinary; however, it is the story behind her struggle that truly captured my heart. In addition to showcasing an exceptional modeling talent, she’s also established herself as a successful businesswoman and an author. Although many may not recognize her face, her accomplishments speak volumes. Ladies and gentlemen, it is my distinct pleasure to present today’s esteemed trailblazer – the legendary Miss Naomi Sims.

Naomi Ruth Sims was born on March 30, 1948 in Oxford, Mississippi. As the youngest of three daughters, Sims was cited as a standout early on in life. Due to her tall and slim stature, Naomi was steadily criticized and shunned by other children who failed to understand her extraordinary physique – at the tender age of thirteen, she was already a towering 5 feet 10 inches. After completing high school, the stunning beauty won a scholarship to the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York and, from there, she began to work as a struggling model while facing racial prejudice head on. Little did Naomi know, her downfall would  soon be the sole factor in her unstoppable rise to fame. Naomi Sims’s popularity grew wildly from the late 1960s and throughout the 1970s ; furthermore, one of  her more defining moments was her appearance as the first African-American cover model to be featured in the Ladies’ Home Journal (November 1968).

Aside from her ground-breaking accomplishments, this model’s style was also quite bomb-worthy. Sims was drawn to a more classic aesthetic – with everything from fabulous button-downs to the ever-so-chic belted maxi dress – Sims knew what looked good and she rocked it well!As a muse for Halston, Naomi also sizzled in flowy jumpsuits, printed coordinates, ladylike hats and enviable furs. Her style was infused with functionality coupled with a conservative appeal. In my opinion, she was THE first street style star. Don’ t believe me? Check out her concrete runway looks!
