Making History: Beyoncé On The Cover Of Vogue’s September Issue

It’s the moment we’ve been waiting for ever since Vogue announced Beyoncé would be the cover star of it’s much-anticipated September issue. Here are the images of Queen Bey, as shot by 23-year-old photographer Tyler Mitchell. Yes, you read correctly, he’s just 23, but most importantly Mitchell is the first African-American photographer to shoot Vogue’s cover in its 126-year history, making this a very historic moment. As part of the feature, we’re treated to two cover shots as well as various images of  Beyoncé taken in a country home on the outskirts of London. The first cover shot sees the mum-of-three seated wearing a floral headpiece and a Gucci dress and in the other she opts for a belted stunning strapless gown (the latter possibly being our favourite).  Taking a minimalist approach, gone is the high-glam we know and love Beyoncé for and in its place is a barely-there look, which was in fact intentional. In an as-told-to interview by journalist Clover Hope which accompanies the editorial, the singer said, “I think it’s important for women and men to see and appreciate the beauty in their natural bodies. That’s why I stripped away the wigs and hair extensions and used little makeup for this shoot.” And what’s it like working with one of the most famous women in the world? Speaking to Vogue, Mitchell said, “When she sat down for me there was immediately the kind of comfort level you’d have with a friend, which was quite unexpected.” He continues, “You’d imagine someone as famous as Beyoncé to be protective of her image, but she was really an open book—and that’s exactly what you want as a photographer.

Beyonce’s Second Coachella Performance Won’t Be Livestreamed

Sad news guys, Beyonce’s second performance at Coachella won’t be livestreamed…. We’re still getting over her first performance (which really and truly we felt guilty for watching free of charge as it was pretty spectacular) and were eagerly anticipating this weekend’s show, but alas it’s not meant to be. If you haven’t watched the incredible extravaganza that took place last Saturday, you can do so here. Not only was the singer the first black woman to headline the festival, but she also broke viewing records too. The livestream on YouTube was the most viewed Coachella performance with 498,000 fans tuning in to watch Queen B make history. While the set for the second show will largely stay the same, Jo’Artis Mijo Ratti, one of Beyonce’s backup dancers confirmed to Variety there will be a number of surprises in store saying,“Yeah, we’re switching up a couple things, so there could still be a wow factor”.

CFDA Awards 2016: Beyoncé Gives Her Most Inspirational Speech Yet!

She’s currently working on global domination with her Formation world tour but not even that could keep Beyoncé from taking time out to attend the CFDA awards which took place last night in New York, to accept the Fashion Icon Award. It was all very, hush hush as to whom would have the honour of receiving the prestigious award but with 2016 being her year of major slay both in the music and style arena, there really was no competition. Wearing a crystal embellished Givenchy tux and a wide-brimmed hat, Queen Bey took it waaaay back in her acceptance speech, reminding us of the days when Mama Tina would create their costumes. Remember those days? Even we were a tad nostalgic thinking back to those matching Destiny Child outfits, the clashing colours and ripped skirts as well as the blinged out dresses – all made by hand by Tina Knowles herself. Speaking to the fashion industry’s elite at the Hammerstein Ballroom she said, “Starting out in Destiny’s Child, high-end labels didn’t really want to dress four black country curvy girls, and we couldn’t afford designer dresses and couture. My mother was rejected from every showroom in New York. But like my grandmother, she used her talent and her creativity to give her children their dreams. My mother and my uncle, God rest his soul, made all of our first costumes, individually sewing hundreds of crystals and pearls, putting so much passion and love into every small detail. When I wore these clothes I felt like Khaleesi. I had an extra suit of armour. It was so much deeper than any brand name. My mother is fabulous and beautiful and she’s here tonight. My mother, my grandmother, and my uncle are always with me so I cannot fail. My mother actually […]

Designer Rachel Roy Faces Backlash From Beyoncé Fans After Release Of New Album Lemonade

There is no wrath like that of the Beyhive scorned. Just ask fashion designer Rachel Roy. The mother of two has been subject to the venom of loyal Beyoncé fans amidst speculation that she did indeed have an affair with Jay Z. The drama unfolded on Saturday night after the premiere of Beyoncé’s long awaited visual album titled Lemonade which left many viewers believing the majority of the album was directed at her husband and his alleged infidelity. Lyrics such as, “You know I give you life, if you try this s–t again you’re gonna lose your wife,” and “He only want me when I’m not there. He better call Becky with the good hair,’ with Becky being a reference to the “other woman”, left many wondering who exactly “Becky with the good hair” is.   They didn’t wonder for too long however, as 4 hours after airing, Roy posted a photo on Instagram with the cryptic caption,  “Good hair don’t care, but we will take good lighting, for selfies, or self truths, always. live in the light #nodramaqueens”. That’s all the proof the Beyhive needed to assume that Roy herself was in fact “Becky”. Bombarding the designer and her daughters Instagram with nasty comments, Roy was subsequently forced to delete the post, switch her Instagram to private and tweet, “I respect love, marriages, families and strength. What shouldn’t be tolerated by anyone, no matter what, is bullying, of any kind”. It doesn’t help matters that Roy was rumoured to be at the heart of elevator-gate in which Solange attacked Jay Z over his apparent over-friendliness with the designer and her Instagram post cemented what many already suspected. Chances are we’ll never know the real truth but once again, the rumours are enough to create major hype surrounding the release of Beyoncé’s new album.

Ladies get in formation. Beyoncé’s activewear brand Ivy Park is set for release on April 14th! Developed in partnership with Sir Philip Green the Spring/Summer 2016 collection which consists of fitness clothing, footwear and accessories will be available globally both online and instore at Topshop, Nordstrom, Zalando, Net-a-Porter, Selfridges, JD Sports, Namshi, Zalora, The Iconic, Glue Store, Myer and Hudson’s Bay. Of the collaboration Beyoncé said, “Sir Philip has created some amazing collaborations but I wanted a partnership and stand-alone brand. When I’m working and rehearsing I live in my work out clothes but I didn’t feel there was an athletic brand that spoke to me. My goal with Ivy Park is to push the boundaries of athletic wear and to support and inspire women who understand that beauty is more than your physical appearance. True beauty is in the health of our minds, hearts, and bodies. I know that when I feel physically strong, I am mentally strong and I wanted to create a brand that made other women feel the same way.” The standalone brand has been in the works for the past 18 months and we can’t wait to see what the two heavyweights have in store for us.

Rihanna Stuns on Vogue Cover & Opens Up About Beyonce Rivalry

Slowly but surely, Rihanna is silently taking over the world.  After a two year hiatus, the Bajan beauty came back with a killer album titled ANTI,  her first single from the album, “Work” featuring Drake has remained at number 1 for the past four weeks, her latest collection with Puma was met with raving reviews, she has a role in a movie directed by Luc Besson in the works and she’s just snagged another Vogue cover. Shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott , Rihanna looks absolutely stunning in a sequinned dress on this month’s cover. The singer sat down with the mag to talk everything from her relationship status to beef with Beyonce. On her apparent rivalry with Beyonce? ‘Here’s the deal,’she said. ‘They just get so excited to feast on something that’s negative. Something that’s competitive. Something that’s, you know, a rivalry. And that’s just not what I wake up to. Because I can only do me. And nobody else is going to be able to do that.’ On her relationship status? “My schedule is so crazy right now . . . It’s definitely going to be a challenge when I do decide to pursue a relationship . . . but I have hope!” Oh her line with Puma?  ‘I always wanted to do what my brothers were doing. I always wanted to play the games they played and play rough and wear pants and go outside,’ she said. ‘Women feel empowered when they can do the things that are supposed to be only for men, you know? It breaks boundaries, it’s liberating, and it’s empowering when you feel like, Well, I can do that, too.’

When Prince William and Kate Middleton met Jay Z and Beyoncé

It’s a meeting that’s had the internet in a spin. And we can understand why. Can you imagine witnessing Kate Middleton and Beyoncé chatting away? Well, if you were at the Barclays Center last night then that’s exactly what you’d have been privy to. As part of their visit to NY, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge took a trip down to Brooklyn last night to watch the Brooklyn Nets play the Cleveland Cavaliers. With Jay Z owning a part of the Brookly Nets, naturally the hip-hop star and wife Beyoncé are regulars at their basketball games. So who better to welcome British royalty than music’s very own royal couple? During a break in the game, both Jay Z and Beyoncé went over to shake hands and chat with Prince William and Kate Middleton and we’d give away our entire wardrobe to know what they spoke about! Naturally, Kate looked great as always in a pair of black skinny jeans and a tweed coat, while Beyonce opted for a printed top, black skirt and a denim Louis Vuitton bag from the SS15 collection. Both ladies completed their look with black pumps. 2014 hasn’t ended just yet. We’re just weeks away. But we’re willing to bet this is the most talked meeting of the year.

Beyoncé’s hitting all the right notes with this colour block ensemble

Remember when Beyoncé used to make quite a few questionable sartorial choices? Destiny’s child days aside, Mrs Carter wasn’t really known for being a leader in the style stakes even when she emerged as a solo artist. It always seemed as if she was trying just a little too hard. However, not anymore. Now, it’s no secret that we’ve been inclined to admire sister Solange’s style more so than Bey’s, as she’s not averse to taking fashion risks, but there’s no denying that the singer is well on her way to becoming a style icon in her own right. Posting this simple but chic, ladylike outfit via Instagram, Beyoncé paired a high-waisted yellow skirt with a flattering long sleeved royal blue blouse and complements the outfit perfectly with a cute gold clutch. Style inspiration rating? 10 out of 10! Get Queen Bey’s look with this yellow skirt, blue blouse and gold clutch. All available at ASOS.

It’s not very often you can get Beyoncé’s look for just £68. Today you can.

Yesterday saw the grand opening of Topshop’s NYC flagship store and as we now know that Beyoncé will be collaborating with the shopping giant, it was of course, no surprise that Queen Bey was in attendance. And while she may be the highest paid woman in the music industry, earning a cool $115 million this year (Taylor Swift came in second with $64 million) our Bey still knows a bargain when she sees one. Showing off her curves, Beyoncé wore this £68 sequined bodycon beauty by Topshop. Yep, we too were in shock when we saw the price tag. Not bad at all! As the dress won’t break the bank you can afford to splurge a little…. Pair the stunning LBD with these sparkly heels by Kurt Geiger for a look that’s simple yet stunning! And the total cost of this hot party season ensemble? Drum roll….£188.

Beyonce launching activewear label with Topshop!

It usually takes something special for us to even crack a smile on a Monday morning let alone get excited, but this bit of news we’re about to tell you has certainly done the trick. Ladies and gentlemen, Beyonce is launching an activewear label with high street fave Topshop. Let’s all take a minute to let that sink in… “This is not a collaboration. This is about building a brand and building a business – a separate, proper business, with separate overhead and a separate office,” Topshop/Arcadia boss Philip Green said. “When she was in London in February we arranged to get together. We started talking generally, about doing something together. We’ve been looking at that athletic sector for a while. It’s something we need to be in. Based on what she does, how she works out, the conversation got into that category. “We started getting into a proper conversation in May or June, as to how it would work. It took six or eight weeks to put a deal together. On Friday, Beyoncé came to our office for the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle.” The label – which as yet doesn’t have a name – sounds like it’s going to be pretty huge, as Philip Green confirmed that he will be hiring an entirely separate team, from a creative director to designers, to run it. We can’t wait to see the first pieces make their debut. Watch this space! [Vogue]

Get Beyonce’s Balenciaga and Charlotte Olympia Paris look

Beyonce makes everything look so effortless – singing, dancing, being a yummy mummy and businesswoman, and of course, dressing. Unfortunately for our bank accounts, channelling Beyonce isn’t going to come cheap on this occasion, as the bootylicious singer rocked a pricey – albeit gorgeous – head to toe designer outfit whilst out in Paris… Still, this is what savings and that all-important “rainy day fund” are there for. Plus, it’s almost payday, which makes splashing out on designer threads to emulate one of the most iconic singers of our time an actual possibility. Here’s what you’ll need to channel Beyonce: Kinky box clutch, £831, Charlotte Olympia available at My Theresa Mixed pattern jacquard knit dress, $1,155, Balenciaga available at Barneys Glove wedge sandals, $685, Balenciaga available at Barneys

THAT infamous elevator fight was all staged… according to Beyonce’s dad!

We know we said we wouldn’t talk about it again after Beyonce put it to bed a few months ago, but as it was one of the biggest stories of the year we feel we have to reignite the flame. We are of course talking about the infamous lift-gate, featuring Jay-Z and Solange Knowles. Apparently the whole thing – and those Beyonce/Jay-Z divorce rumours we keep hearing about – was staged! At least, that’s what Beyonce’s dad Mathew Knowles told a US radio station. “I know, because we’ve done this,” he began. “From experience there’s a tour going on. You have to sometimes ignite that tour. It’s called a Jedi mind trick. The Jedi mind trick fools you.” “All I know is Jedi mind trick,” he said when asked directly whether he was referring to the elevator fight. “Everybody’s talking about it. Ticket sales went up, Solange’s album sales went up 200%.” Curiouser and curiouser. We don’t know about you, but we don’t really think Beyonce needed to pull such a big stunt to boost record and ticket sales. We just about manage to get tickets as it is! What do you guys think? We wonder what Beyonce will have to say about her father’s words… [Glamour]

Style Jury: Rihanna vs. Beyonce

Both R&B Queens, huge fashion icons, and most importantly both fabulous; this one is a toughie. We don’t know about you but we’re not a massive fan of the Denim trend, let alone full denim, yet of course, both RiRi and Beyonce show it’s possible for them to wear any trend and nail it. Let’s start with RiRi; the singer was spotted in Beverly Hills with her mother on a shopping spree. Not only is her outfit cool but casual, her hair even while tied up and practical oozes laid back beach glamour. On the other side is Beyonce, one half of music’s biggest ever power couple (sorry Britney and JT that double denim catwalk combo was just catastrophic) not only is she a music Queen (amongst other things) but she also helps rule the fashion world, and she is killing it in double denim. Although she and partner Jay Z have been battling rumours of marriage problems, she shows the world that nothing will stop her from dominating the style world along with RiRi which is what makes this ‘who wore it better’ edition a hard one to decide. Unlike Rihanna however, Beyonce wasn’t being snapped out and about. This picture was posted on her Instagram and official website accompanied with the hashtag ‘#mylife’ – a devotion to Blue Ivy maybe? One thing they both did which distinguished them both from the crowd was accessorize. Rihanna chose a leather cap to add a bit of her signature bad girl edge to the ensemble, along with a denim Juliette Jake Wraparound Clutch which complimented the outfit perfectly, and then finished off the outfit with some sleek nude heels. Beyonce on the other hand opted for a pair of bang on trend Cazal round framed black tinted sunglasses, Christian Louboutin Foillies […]

Beyonce helps you go back to school in style

Back to school, back to college, heck even back to work if you’re a teacher, can be a bit daunting after a long summer break. Therefore you’re going to need something to help you look forward to your return… and nothing will do it better than official Beyonce school supplies. Yep, those slogan tees released a few months ago weren’t the only pieces of Queen Bey merchandise that we’re lusting after, as her Back to School Bundle is looking pretty enticing too. As we get the credit card out to buy several bundles we realise that we don’t actually fall into any of the education categories we mentioned above, but we don’t really think it matters. Our office desk can never have too many Beyonce-inspired accessories on it! Our favourite piece from the collection definitely has to be the Flawless pencil case, not just because it screams “self confidence”, but because it can double up as a cheeky make-up bag or even sunglasses case too. The Angel notebook will also be pretty useful next month when we are scribbling our thoughts on the new-season collections during London Fashion Week. Versatile – what could be better The Back to School Bundle is available at Beyonce’s official website for £44.87. [Styleite]

Beyonce and Jay Z to perform at Brangelina wedding?

Forget Ellie Goulding at the Royal wedding, and forget Lana Del Rey at Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s wedding. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie want to outdo them all, as they have reportedly asked Beyonce and Jay Z to perform at their upcoming nuptials. We need a minute to process this… “Brad told Bey and Jay, that their kids, especially Maddox – adore them,” a ‘source’ apparently told The Daily Star. “He told them it would make their big day extra special to have them both do a number. They were flattered and said they’d do their best to fit it into their hectic schedule, depending on the date.” Squeal! We hope the rumours are true, and we hope that Beyonce and Jay Z can fit Brangelina in. After all, they were famously absent from the Kimye wedding and rather controversially blamed it on their schedules, so let’s hope those aforementioned schedules don’t come in the way of another big celeb wedding. And we have a feeling that this might be one of the biggest and most important weddings Hollywood has ever seen! What songs do you think they should perform? [Glamour]

The real reason Beyonce didn’t attend Kim Kardashian’s wedding is revealed!

If we are to believe what we read on Page Six, we think we may have uncovered the real reason why Beyonce, hubby Jay Z and their gorgeous little girl Blue Ivy were didn’t show their faces at the wedding of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West a few months ago. And we don’t think Kimye or any of the Kardashian klan are going to like it… It’s being reported that the Carters didn’t attend the wedding because, get ready, it wasn’t “classy” enough for their brand. Ouch! “They are guarding like hell their status,” a ‘source’ apparently told the publication. “Beyonce wasn’t going to allow a Kardashian to socially climb her. And Jay didn’t want Kanye with Kim – he thinks it’s bad for business. I think Jay lost a little respect for Kanye there.” Double ouch! Do you think this unnamed source is telling the truth or do you think it was more to do with Bey and Jay’s tight schedule? Thoughts below! [Glamour]

Beyonce and Blue Ivy wear matching Dolce and Gabbana in New York

Just when we thought we saw the cutest mother and baby picture courtesy of Kim Kardashian and little North West, Beyonce and the adorable little Blue Ivy Carter come along to blow everything and everyone out the water. Yep, the A-list mother and daughter duo stepped out in matching Dolce and Gabbana dresses over the weekend, and quite frankly we think it’s the cutest thing we have seen all year! Beyonce wore a gorgeous summery floral Dolce and Gabbana dress from the spring/summer 2014 collection while attending the Kara Walker’s A Subtlety or the Marvelous Sugar Baby art installation in New York, while her daughter was wearing a dress in the same floral print complete with its very own matching bloomers. We can’t cope with the cuteness! Beyonce was obviously super-proud of the doppelganger dressing, as she posted the pics to her very own personal website for all her adoring fans to see. Aww!

Beyonce steps out in Burberry petal shoes

Beyonce has had a bit of bad press this past month or so; what with elevator gate and rumours of a marriage split, it’s safe to say that she is in need of some good press right now. And she’s definitely going to get it thanks to her latest look, which comprised of a hot pink dress and the Burberry Prorsum petal shoes we have been coveting since we first set eyes on them on the spring/summer 2014 catwalk back in September last year. Poppy Delevingne and Angelababy are a few of the famous faces that have already been spotted out in the shoes, but we think Beyonce gives them a run for their money. Whether it’s the rest of the outfit or the American singing superstar effect or a little bit of both, there really is no contest when it comes to who wore it best. If you want to make like Beyonce, you can get your hands – or feet, rather – on the Burberry petal shoes right now. They come in pink as sported by Queen Bey, as well as a lovely shade of green if that’s more your colour. Matching clutch bags are also available if you don’t like doing things by halves. Do you love Beyonce’s Burberry look as much as we do? [Image c/o Burberry]

Beyonce and Solange Knowles take the plunge at Gucci Chime for Change event

Beyonce and her little sis Solange seem to have put elevator-gate firmly behind them, as they looked like the best of friends at the Gucci Chime for Change one year anniversary event in New York last night. Do you think Beyonce told Solange to be on her best behaviour? Beyonce looked heavenly in a plunging white jumpsuit that accentuated all of her bootylicious curves, which she accessorised with black sandals and a very enviable honey blonde mane. Solange also went for white on the bottom, but added a splash of colour by way of a bright orange blouse that was also on the plunging and daring side. Her voluminous curls were back in full force, too; but there was still room on her head for a set of headphones, as Solange even took time out to hit the DJ booth and provide some musical entertainment for the rest of the guests. That’s our girl! [Image]

Solange deletes all Beyonce pics from Instagram after alleged Jay Z elevator fight

Well, this is awkward. Looks like the world is still talking about the Met Gala, but rather than fussing over the red carpet outfits or the Charles James exhibition, it’s all about the elevator. More specifically, what happened inside the elevator when Beyonce, Jay Z, and Solange Knowles were in there. For the past 24 hours, everyone seems to be talking about the fight that Solange and Jay Z apparently had in there, as a video of Solange “attacking” her brother-in-law have leaked online. As a result of the alleged fight, Solange has since deleted all pictures of Beyonce (bar one) from her personal Instagram account. Very suspect and curious indeed… No one knows what triggered the fight and whether or not it’s been resolved, especially since Beyonce posted a very cryptic status a few days after the Met Gala, but the sisters did head off to Costa Rica together for the secret wedding of Bey’s former Destiny’s Child bandmate Kelly Rowland. Would someone like to enlighten us? All info much appreciated! Watch the video below to see the full fight in action… [Image]

Beyonce covers Time’s ‘100 Most Influential People’ issue

Not getting your hands on  Time’s ‘100 Most Influential People’ issue would pretty much be a travesty, as there is so much going on inside it! Not only is Beyonce the cover star, but there are a host of big fashion names that also made the cut – from Phoebe Philo to Natalie Massenet, among others – as well as some of our old favourites like Mr Happy himself, Pharrell Williams, and the ever controversial Miley Cyrus. The full list will be unveiled when the magazine goes on sale, but it wouldn’t be right if we didn’t give you a few sneaky snippets. Here’s what Stella McCartney had to say about Phoebe Philo… “One of the few female designers, she celebrates the simple and champions the quality and reality of a woman’s wardrobe,” Stella said. “When people invest in her work, they have it for life. One of the things we share is the reality that the clothes we design are actually worn.” Jenna Lyons’ words about BFC chairman and Net-a-Porter founder Natalie Massenet were also just as inspiring… “The word visionary is lofty, overused. Somewhat abused,” she said. “There are few people who can really see something that doesn’t exist. Create it. Explain it. And get others to follow. Natalie Massenet is, in fact, that visionary.” What high praise indeed! Make sure to pick up your copy of the magazine to find out what Facebook CEO Sheryl Sandberg had to say about Beyonce and also what Dolly Parton had to say about her goddaughter Miley Cyrus!

Beyonce poses topless and pays homage to Marilyn Monroe on Out’s ‘Power’ issue

Want to know how it’s possible to pose absolutely topless with the utmost class and sophistication? No problem – simply look at these pictures of the one and only Beyonce for inspiration. Queen Bey donned a platinum blonde wig and posed topless and paid homage to one of the most iconic sexy screen sirens – Marilyn Monroe – on the cover of Out magazine’s May issue, which just so happens to be the ‘Power’ issue. Beyonce’s aim of posing in this ultra sexy photoshoot was to promote female empowerment, a theme she ran with in the accompanying editorial. “There is unbelievable power in ownership, and women should own their sexuality,” she told the mag. “There is a double standard when it comes to sexuality that still persists. Men are free and women are not. That is crazy. “The old lessons of submissiveness and fragility made us victims. Women are so much more than that. You can be a businesswoman, a mother, an artist, and a feminist – whatever you want to be – and still be a sexual being. It’s not mutually exclusive. “Being that I am a woman in a male-dominated society, the feminist mentality rang true to me and became a way to personalize that struggle…But what I’m really referring to, and hoping for, is human rights and equality, not just that between a woman and a man. “So I’m very happy if my words can ever inspire or empower someone who considers themselves an oppressed minority…We are all the same and we all want the same things: the right to be happy, to be just who we want to be and to love who we want to love.” We hope that men and women alike will stop staring at the stunning pictures long enough to read and […]

We’ve speculated on several occasions that Beyonce Knowles is far too perfect to be a regular human being… however, her make-up artist Francesca Tolot has confirmed in an interview that the singer might just be as perfect as we think she is. Great news for Beyonce fans and Bey herself… not so great for those of us who want to steal some of her beauty “tricks”. You might think that having one of the most beautiful clients in the world would make your job a piece of cake, however that’s not the case. Especially when Francesca had to make Bey look as “distressed” as possible… “One of the hardest looks to do was for Cadillac Records when she looked so distressed,” she said. “Can you imagine—because, you know how beautiful she is—to make her look like that? Somebody with perfect skin, beautiful almond-shaped eyes, very luminous and happy and full of joy—to make her look so bad? I don’t know how I did it; it was very, very hard to make her look like that.” So what beauty tips can we take away from this interview? Avoid the false lashes and go for a good mascara, for one… “One mascara that I find myself using on her a lot is MAC In Extreme Dimension Mascara. My other favourite is L’Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes. But I don’t use false eyelashes a lot on Beyoncé anymore. Except for that look in the Blow video, when we went for a really ‘70s look. But we stopped using lashes quite a few years ago. At one point I brought up the fact that I feel that false eyelashes are dated, unless you’re going for the retro look. So I talked to her about that, and she totally agreed.” And that perfect, glowing skin? All […]

Beyonce stuns in striped Topshop dress

If you’ve been living under a rock you might not know that Queen Beyonce is right here in the UK, singing and dancing her butt off entertaining her millions of fans on stage as part of her Mrs Carter world tour. And while she flashes the flesh in a number of sexy designer outfits while performing, her off stage attire is a little different. Beyonce’s “out-and-about-minding-my-own-business” look is a little more casual than her (Sasha) Fierce (sorry) costumes, but it’s by no means less wow-worthy.  She is still Beyonce, after all! Beyonce proved that you can still look divine in high street as she stunned in a black and white striped Topshop dress while heading to Mayfair’s The Arts Club with hubby Jay Z. Makes sense to see her in something from the high street store seeing as she reportedly spent three hours perusing the stock in the Oxford Street flagship last week. We can’t wait to see what else she snapped up while she was in there… watch this space! [Image]

Beyonce is a knock out in knit Roberto Cavalli dress

This time last year we were still reeling from the excitement of Beyonce’s Super Bowl half time performance, and it doesn’t look like any of that’s changed 12 months down the line, either. Queen Bea is still the talk of the town and blogosphere, wowing the crowd with an incredible performance for DirecTV’s Super Saturday Night at Pier 40 on the eve of the Super Bowl. The singer not only blew us away with her stage presence, vocal range and general show-stopping performance, but also with the stunning dress she was wearing. Beyonce was rocking a black knit Roberto Cavalli gown, some seriously fierce and high black shoes, and wearing her hair in the long, voluminous way we love! We doubt any of the boys in the audience were paying attention to her hair or indeed her bold red statement lippie due to the see-through parts of her dress, though… Another 10 out of 10 look for Mrs Carter – what do you guys think?

Lily Allen talks feminism, motherhood and Beyonce in Elle UK March

Well it’s been a long time since we saw Lily Allen on a fashion mag cover, but we are welcoming her back to the glossies with open arms as she covers the Elle UK March issue. Lily was shot byDavid Vasiljevic and is modelling some seriously cool garbs from the likes of Miu Miu (which she is rocking like a pro on the front cover!), Michael van der Ham and Roland Mouret. Jealous, much? Looking pretty in the latest and trendiest clothes isn’t all she does though, as she talks to the mag about returning to the music industry, motherhood, feminism, and the pressures she thinks women face about the way they look and act… “Of course I’d rather look like Kate Moss than look like myself,” she confessed. “I wish I didn’t feel like that, and I think the reason we feel like that is because of the imagery we’re fed all the time. Women are still expected, in some weird way, to kind of… Sit there and look pretty. And not talk.” Hmm… do you agree with Lily? Or is it all a bit too deep this early on a Tuesday morning? You can read the rest of Lily’s musings – and see more beautiful pics – in the March issue of Elle UK which hits newsstands on January 30th.

Beyonce shows off her body in Michael Costello in the Grammys press room

We gushed over Beyonce’s amazing Drunk in Love Grammys performance earlier today, but that’s not where the Bey appreciation is ending, oh no. Mrs Jay Z once again blew us away when the show was over when she stepped into the press room in her sheer white floor-length Michael Costello fishnet gown. Beyonce’s flawless toned body was on full display, making anyone who set eyes on her completely green with envy. We don’t even want to know what it did for all the red blooded males in the room, either.. Although the sheer trend is nothing knew on the red carpet or catwalk scene, we think Beyonce definitely brought something fresh and new to the table. Her wild beach wave hair complete with her fierce red lippie completed the look nicely, making Beyonce’s one of the brightest stars from the 56th Grammy Awards on the whole. Do you agree with us?

Beyonce rocks La Perla’s cage vest at the Grammys

We gushed about all the outfits on the 56th Grammy Awards 2014 red carpet on Monday, but the arrivals red carpet was only the beginning. We were blown away by Beyonce’s opening performance of Drunk in Love – so much so that we will forgive her for not walking down the red carpet with the rest of the artists (we bet they’re glad too because if history repeated itself, she would have stolen the best dressed crown and put everyone else in the shade). Beyonce looked even sexier than usual – apparently it is possible – on the Grammys stage, wearing a stunning bodysuit with a hand-made cage – complete with satin covered rods – from the new La Perla Cage collection. The three-piece 2013 ‘Cage’ Capsule Collection features a strapless bra, briefs, and a high-waisted short, and is inspired by the brand’s iconic ‘cage bustier’ which debuted back in 2007 and was even worn by fashion Queen Victoria Beckham. Now we know that there is only one Beyonce in the world and no one could possibly look better than her no matter how hard they try (sad face!) but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try and copy her this Valentine’s Day or any other day of the year. If you have a spare $332 lying around, the cage vest could be yours and you could stage your very own Beyonce concerts live from your bedroom. Hairbrushes at the ready!

Who doesn’t want to channel Queen Bey as they go about their daily business?

Beyonce releases sweatshirts with words from her new songs!

Do you like the two sweatshirts above? These aren’t just any ordinary one word slogan sweatshirts you see before you. They just to happen to be sweatshirts featuring four of the most popular (so popular they went viral!) words from Beyonce’s brand spanking new album that she had secretly been working on and surprised fans with last month. And as a result, we need them in our lives and wardrobes, pronto! “Flawless,” “watermelon,” “surfboard” and “breakfast” are all words that can be found on her new secret album, and all four can be found individually emblazoned on the sweatshirts. We think it’s a pretty cool idea that brings the fashion, music and social media worlds all together. The sweatshirts retail for $65 each (you can get them on Beyonce’s official e-store) which we don’t think is too steep a price to pay to pay homage to the one and only Queen Bea. They will also be excellent conversation starters amongst fellow Beyonce fans who will recognise them. Which one would you get? [Style Caster]

Just like Demi Lovato and Miley Cyrus and our very own Duchess of Cambridge, Beyonce Knowles can’t seem to get enough of the British high street; Topshop in particular. Queen Bey was posing pretty in New York in a tribal chevron tube skirt with a zany aztec cropped tee that showed off her flawless figure – both of which came courtesy of high street fave, Topshop.

Beyoncé rocks Kurt Geiger back candy like a pro!

Kanye West may have been the birthday boy, and topics of conversation probably revolved around his very pregnant girlfriend Kim Kardashian and her very looming due date, but it was Beyonce who commanded all the sartorial attention. This doesn’t really surprise us though; does it surprise you? Mrs Carter rocked up to Yeezy’s birthday party in New York showing off her ridiculously toned tummy in an eye-catching striped Topshop outfit, but we were more excited by what was at the back. And no, we don’t mean her booty! Queen Bea was modelling, nay – rocking, the black croc Kurt Geiger London Dash rucksack. We’ve been a bit unsure about the whole backpack trend we won’t lie, after all the back-to-school look doesn’t work for everyone, but B has definitely swayed our vote; so much so that we now want one for ourselves! And at only £180, we just might make this back candy dream a reality! [Image 1] [Image 2 c/o Splash]

Beyonce Boutique at Rent the Runway!

We just can’t get enough Beyonce at the moment. After all, there’s no such thing as too much Beyonce, is there? Queen Bey, she who turns heads and has the audience in hysterics whenever she walks a red carpet, wants to pass on some of her sartorial success to her loyal fans and fashionistas… hence why she has curated an edit of gorgeous clothes on Rent the Runway in what is very aptly named the ‘Beyonce Boutique’, Rent the Runway (which does exactly what it says on the tin – lets you rent designer pieces for a fraction of their original retail price) is your bank account’s best friend, as it lets you feed your designer dress addiction without breaking the bank. “Making women feel confident and beautiful is something I’ve always been passionate about. That’s why joining forces with Rent the Runway was so organic,” she said. “It’s more than just access to beautiful clothes; it’s about making women look and feel their best.” Amen! We’re thrilled Beyonce has got involved with this – click here to check out her edit. Do you think she did a good job? [USA Today]

Beyonce’s Back to Black Great Gatsby cover slated by Amy Winehouse’s dad

When we heard that Beyonce would be covering the late Amy Winehouse’s iconic song Back to Black for the upcoming The Great Gatsby film, we had mixed feelings. It won’t take a genius to work out that we love Beyonce, but we weren’t sure how well a cover version – which she created with André 3000 – would go down with Amy’s fans and family. And it appears we were right…. “I don’t think she brings anything to it,” Mitch said about the cover version “I wasn’t asked for my permission if they could record it. They have got to pay for the privilege, which is what they are doing. I can’t tell you how much it is but it’s a lot of money.” Yikes; you can hear a snippet of Bey’s rendition on the Great Gatsby trailer which you can see below. What do you think? Don’t forget, the film hits cinemas on May 16th! [Glamour]

Beyonce, Jennifer Lawrence and Kate Middleton among Time’s 100 Most Influential

It’s that time of the year again – the time when the Time 100 Most Influential People in the World list is announced, and once again we reckon the folks who compiled the list got it spot on. Beyonce, Girls creator Lena Dunham, Michelle Obama and Kate Middleton all gained rightful spots on the Icons list, with each lady receiving an appraisal from their peers. “The future Queen is dignified, dutiful and unflappable, with a modest reluctance to steal the spotlight from her husband, Prince William,” Sally Bedell Smith, author of Elizabeth the Queen: The Life of a Modern Monarch, wrote about the Duchess of Cambridge. “Her elegant wardrobe has enormous popular appeal that has boosted the British fashion industry.” We’re thrilled to see Jennifer Lawrence on the Artists list, also joined by the likes of Christina Aguilera and Jenna Lyons. “Sure, this girl can act, but, man, this girl can also just be,” Jodie Foster wrote about Oscar-winning Jennifer Lawrence. “And that’s precisely what’s earned he such a strong fan base. “Her good-humoured, ballsy, free-spirited alter ego with the husky voice and a propensity for junk food … Jen, the spritely tomboy from Kentucky — that Jen’s got it together. A hoot. A gem. A gem with a killer stare.” Click here to check out who gained spots in all the categories, which include Titans, Pioneers, Leaders, Icons and Artists.

Check out more pics from Beyonce’s H&M Swimwear campaign!

You didn’t think that one picture was showed you a few week ago was all you were going to get of Beyonce’s H&M campaign, did you? Beyonce’s H&M Swimwear ad campaign has finally been released in full, and we can confirm that every picture gives us something to get excited about. We particularly love that bright yellow bikini below – now we just need to find a beach to wear it on and we’re good to go! And apparently Bey had quite a bit of input in the designs of the pieces, which just makes us want to go out and buy them even more. So where does the singer get style inspiration from, you ask? “I think my style comes from watching my mother from the time I was a little girl,” she said “She was so stylish. She was the first person I saw mix high end pieces with more accessible styles and make it all work. I’m also inspired by my sister, I love her bold approach.” We agree, we love a bit of Solange boldness! [Grazia]
