Pastel Suits, Rose Mullets, and a Thousand Miss Kentuckys at The Derby
This Saturday marked the 141st running of the Kentucky Derby, an event near and dear to my heart because I am from Kentucky and... I went to the Derby one time. It was cool! Anyway, this year’s race was host to a record-breaking crowd of over 170,000 mint julep-totin’, fancy hat wearin’ Southerners and a bunch of…
Lots of Leg and Lots of Dads at the MTV Movie Awards
The 2015 MTV Movie Awards aired last night, terribly timed to the premiere of Game of Thrones. Judging from the red carpet alone, it really lived up to its reputation as the obnoxious, lazy, basic baby sibling of the awards show family. This year's red carpet was a little subdued, featuring lame styling—not outright…
All the Enviable Looks at Essence's Black Women In Hollywood Luncheon

Gold, Glitz, and Blonde Dye at the American Country Countdown Awards

Rihanna's Diamond Ball: The Host Wore Marsala, and Other Fashion Tales
Rihanna threw her first annual Diamond Ball Thursday night, a gala of all galas meant to benefit her Clara Lionel Foundation. Clara Lionel is Rihanna's longtime charity, named after her grandparents, and it's not a foundation for "weed and the legalization of good times," as posited by my colleague Kate Dries, but…
Cool, Classy Dudes (And Ladies) Unite at GQ's Men of the Year Party
On Thursday night, GQ held its annual Men of the Year Party in L.A. to celebrate the most special-est dudes of 2014. What an amazing year it was for men.
