By Leila N. Throughout my many travels to Europe over the past 7 years, I’ve learned that many black women struggle with finding good hair products or a great hair stylist they can trust. Having lived in Barcelona, Spain, I personally struggled with maintaining the healthy beauty regimen I adopted in The States. I realized how hard it was to find quality beauty products, especially because there wasn’t a beauty supply store in every corner. So I put on my [...]
Dorothy was right…there’s no place like home, especially when you fill it comfy and beautiful accoutrements like these: 1. Vanity Trays – Why just have your jewelry, perfume or mail for that matter strewn across your dresser or table when you can place it in a beautiful tray?

By Bethany Gardner, Vyne Contributor I have had it with “black” movies and TV. If I see one more trailer for a so-called romantic “comedy” with a bunch of black leads and a plot I’ve figured out (boy meets girl cute, boy/girl introduces other to family, drama ensues, boy/girl breakup then make up, wedding) by the end of the commercial, I think I might just lose it completely. Viewing a movie with a range of quite funny to mediocre black [...]
Ever wonder how much of last years hot trends you can/should carry over into this year? Wonder no more folks, here’s a list of trends to hang on to (or pick up) for winter 2012. Side note, here’s the thing about trends, only choose the ones that work for you. For example, Kailei could probably pull off the “stiletto” nail craze…but I on the other hand would have to opt for the “navy colored” nail. 70′s Inspired Looks – Zoe [...]

By Allison Brooke Gordon Ever just miss the postman; the bus; that project deadline; the coming attractions; the second leg of your flight? And, on an on-going basis?

Since childhood there was a perpetual tardiness that manifested into a daily ripple effect… Late to rise in the morning, slow to get dressed, eat breakfast and pack my bag. Therefore… Late to elementary school every single day [...]

Now that we’ve all “let the credits roll” on all the stuff from 2011 that wasn’t serving us, its time now for some action. Often times people begin the year thinking about what they are going to stop doing but since we used end of 2011 to do that, let’s use the beginning of 2012 to determine what we’re going to start doing and then actually make bold moves to get it done. Here’s how that looks. If you’ve been [...]
