Solange Knowles and Alan Ferguson Wedding Photos

There’s something to be said when you dare to be different. Today, Solange Knowles married her long time sweetheart Alan Ferguson. Based upon the photos below, she chose a modern, minimalistic style which has inspired “creative spirits” everywhere.

 

The most unique element about the wedding was the entire wedding party wearing all white. Solange has always been known for her artistic style with beautiful natural hair and her fashionable photos.  And we can’t get enough of her white pantsuit.

What an inspirational non-traditional way to say your vows. And that my dears is how you “break the internet!”

Organizer, Celebrity Designer Bianca Williams of B. Pretty Inc, said the launch, that featured three different versions of her Human Hair Lashes , completely sold out of her Vai Vai Voom and Invisible Eyelashes.

The event, which was hosted by Delaina Dixon, On Air Host of VH1’s The Gossip Table, started with a introduction of the liquor sponsor for the evening “Kamoni Ice“. As the event went on, there was a Q&A about the products and then a demonstration of the simple lash application process by Celebrity MUA “Sheri Pierre“.

The established PR firm MNS Media worked the media on hand and facilitated the flow of crowd and interviews throughout the evening.

Bianca Williams spoke to the crowd on hand about beginning her career as a entrepreneur with plus-size ensembles, and the feeling of being featured in the national publication Hip Hop Weekly (3x), Swagher Magazine and Full Blossom Magazine as one to watch. Bianca mentioned, she recently evolved into eyelashes to bring out the natural ocular beauty of the wearer in a product that is comfortable, even with extended wear. “I wanted to preserve that natural look,” says the designer, “while keeping it comfortable all day long.”

Bianca Williams recently released her Curvy Bride Collection, at her own Nuptials on September 27th, 2014. The designer plans to continue to promote the B. Pretty Clothing brand, while also releasing a new line of Siberian Mink Lashes, in the near future.

Kale Salad – Delicious for Lunch or Dinner

Lately, I’ve been pretty obsessed with adding Kale to my diet. This is a super food that has several health benefits such as added protein, iron, and other delicious vitamins and minerals. According to medical news, it also helps with preventative measures against cancer, heart disease, and diabetes.

For me, it’s a delicious addition to my diet and I love finding new recipes for eating Kale. To my surprise I found a recipe (below) that I wanted to share with other Kale lovers. It’s simple, easy, and can be eaten during lunch or as a low calorie dinner. This Kale Salad is not only a quick fix (which is a major plus) but looks delicious!

I would love to hear some of your Kale recipes, share them with me at kim@stylelifefashion.com.

Let’s Talk Live DC Lifestyle Segment Eco – Friendly Home Essentials

Last week I hosted a lifestyle segment on Let’s Talk Live DC, sharing tips on eco – friendly home essentials. The products discussed where Zabada Cleaning Products, Coyuchi Bedding and Linens, Soni Clean VT Vacuum, Rowenta Iron, and TFal Cooking Pan.

Having an eco – friendly home is very important because it helps to eliminate harmful chemicals in the air and the use of excess energy. How many times have we started cleaning our homes (with bleach) and began to feel queasy? That’s because this is actually a chemical that we’re inhaling and also putting in the environment.

Additional Cleaning Tips: we also use simple products purchased at the grocery store –

Baking Soda – Cleans, Deodorizes, and Softens Water

Lemons – Helps with Household Bacteria

White Vinegar – Cuts Grease, Removes Mildew, and Stains

Cornstarch – Cleans Windows, Polish Furniture, Shampoo Carpets and Rugs

Glam Screen and Accessories by Jonathan Cheban: Take Your Selfies to The Next Level

It’s New York Fashion Week and what does that mean? We are taking selfies with our smart phone; asking our girlfriends, “how do I look” or searching for a mirror in our handbags. Those problems are solved with the new Glam Screen and Accessories, created by Jonathan Cheban from Keeping Up With The Kardashains.

To sum it up, Glam Screen is an HD Mirror Screen Protector that turns your cellphone into a mirror. And there’s several cute accessories like the Designer Button Stickers, Selfie Ring, and iPad HD Mirror Screen Protector. The days of taking a bad selfie ended with the creation of the Glam Screen Protector.

My Experience: The screen was very easy to put on and allowed me to take quality selfies!  Also, by using the selfie ring I was able to hold the phone upright, strike a pose, and smile for the camera.  See photos of my Glam Screen (and accessories) below – to order click on the link: Glam Screen
