Hearst's Virtual Style Summit Was A Celebration of Black Excellence


Just last week, Hearst Magazine collaborated with Hearst Black Culture and HearstLab to debut the first Celebrate Black: A Virtual Style Summit. Hearst partnered with Nike to host three-day series that was moderated by Hearst’s very own staff members as they spoke and the important work being done within the company that helps amplify the voice of Black creators, brands, and entrepreneurs. Accompanied by the moderators were Black leaders in fashion, beauty, marketing, and entertainment. The topics covered throughout the three-day series were about diversity in fashion, sports, corporate America, the beauty industry, and more.

Here are the recaps of each session below:

Day One: Being A Black Leader In Fashion

Harper’s BAZAAR digital director, Nikki Ogunnaike, moderated as she welcomed guest designer Victor Glemaud, who discussed his journey in the fashion industry and the development of his clothing label. Glemaud’s best advice came when he emphasized that Black creators should be clear about their goals and what they want to do in life. He shared a personal story of calling every week for six months for a possible internship because he believed in himself.

Day One: New Guard Roundtable

Ogunnaike spoke to new Black image-markers: Yashua Simmons (Fashion Stylist), Latisha Chong (Published Hairstylist), Jasmine Plantin (Nike Apparel Designer), and Raisa Flowers (Makeup Artist). In the roundtable, the rising stars discussed their career trajectories, cultural influence, and future collaborations with Hollywood’s biggest stars. Chong’s best advice? Knowing how to treat people is vital. Kindness in this industry goes a long way. What was most inspiring was a full-circle moment for Raisa Flowers who started in makeup by taking a class from the makeup artist for Rihanna, Priscilla Ono, and now just walked in the Savage X Fenty fashion show herself.

Day One: Reshaping The Look of Sports

Day Two: Cultivating Your Calling

Oprah Daily senior digital director, Arianna Davis, moderated as Sarah Mensah, Nike’s Head of North American Marketing, shared her journey in the marketing field and provided advice for women of color who are navigating in corporate America.

Jennifer Lopez Joined Ben Affleck In L.A. With Kids For Thanksgiving

Jennifer Lopez Joined Ben Affleck In L.A. With Kids For Thanksgiving


On Wednesday night, Jennifer Lopez arrived in Los Angeles with her 13-year-old twins Max and Emme. The family was likely there to join Lopez’s boyfriend, Ben Affleck, for the Thanksgiving holiday. Lopez recently returned from the much colder climate of British Columbia, Canada, where she was filming her latest project, The Mother.

J. Lo touched down in her private jet wearing a teddy fur coat from Coach’s Autumn/Winter 2019 collection, and a pair of Ugg boots. Classic airplane outfit, celebrity style. Lopez and Affleck originally dated in 2002 and broke up in 2004. Their romance was rekindled earlier this year, soon after Lopez ended her relationship with baseball player Alex Rodriguez. The new couple went official in July, while celebrating Lopez’s 52nd birthday abroad.

Affleck’s most recent relationship with Ana de Armas ended in January after about a year together. He had divorced ex-wife Jennifer Garner in 2015 after being married for almost a decade. Garner and Affleck had three daughters, Violet, Seraphina, and Sam.

Before traveling back to the U.S., Lopez posted a story to Instagram Reels about how grateful she was to be headed home.

“Hey everybody, it’s my last day here shooting on The Mother out in Smithers in the snow, it’s been beautiful, but tonight I’m on my way home,” she said, as she walked through the wild landscape in a black coat and beanie.

“I’m so excited for Thanksgiving! I hope everybody has an amazing weekend with their families and their loved ones, there’s so much to be grateful for this year. I’m on my way!”

This is the first major holiday of the year since Lopez and Affleck reunited, so it’s likely to be a big one for both families.

Everlane’s Black Friday Sale is Packed With Winter Essentials

Published

This is not a drill: Everlane just kicked off its Black Friday sale. Now through Monday, November 29, the direct-to-consumer brand is offering 20 to 40% off its cozy sweaters, minimalist activewear, and popular jeans. If you’re not super familiar with Everlane, let me spell it out for you: this is a big deal.

The e-tailer might be known for making sustainable, ethically made clothes and accessories at a fair, affordable price, but Everlane rarely has sales beyond its Choose What You Pay section. So, if you want to stock up on cute basics for less, now’s your time to shop.

And, in true Everlane fashion, the brand is taking this opportunity to give back. Everlane is partnering with Rodale Institute and help U.S. farmers transition their farmland to regenerative organic—and donating $15 per order to the cause. A great sale that gives back? I’m sold.

But, hurry! These deals are going to sell out fast, so you won’t want to waste any time filling your e-cart.
