ARCH. During NY Fashion Week, even your brows have to look good! We got ours threaded and shaped at Shobha┬« brow salon in New York City’s Columbus Circle. To keep them looking fabulous all week long, we’ll use the Shobha┬« Brow Brush and Shobha┬« Brow Pencil to smooth and tame hairs and punch up our brow’s natural color. The brow pencil comes in easy-to-match shades and has a sharpener right in the cap, sweet! Build your brows at www.myshobha.com.

Brush up on your runway history and download the documentary Versailles ΓÇÖ73: American Runway Revolution, which chronicles a fashion face-off between five prominent American designers: Anne Klein, Stephen Burrows, Bill Blass, Oscar de la Renta and Halston against five fantastique French designers: Yves St. Laurent, Christian Dior, Hubert de Givenchy, Pierre Cardin and Emanuel Ungaro at the Palace of Versailles in 1973. We love that a color barrier-breaking collective of Black models sashayed down the runway, showcasing America’s diverse beauty! Available on iTunes beginning Feb. 12.
