THROWBACK THURSDAY: REMEMBER THE TIME

Oh, MJ, you've given us so many great pop culture moments. This one comes courtesy of his 1992 hit song "Remember the Time", off of his Dangerous  album. Honestly, this music video rivals the "Thriller" video, to me, as far as concept and execution are concerned. This music video is set in ancient Egypt and boasts a slew of stars, including Eddie Murphy, Magic Johnson and the beautiful Iman. 

I remember being a kid and watching the premiere of the music video on MTV, with my entire family. That was the power of MJ, he was able to bring everyone, from all generations, cultures and backgrounds, together. What a legend.

BEAUTY SECRETS OF CLEOPATRA

I am really, really excited to be sharing these beauty secrets with you guys. Cleopatra was a true pioneer in the world of beauty. Some of her beloved ingredients she used in her routine can be found in products we use today. The best part is, all the things she used are natural, and  a lot of the treatments and ingredients she used are still available today.  Below are just a few of her favorite beauty treatments. No other woman in history,in my opinion, has influenced the world of beauty more than Cleopatra.

INDIANA JONES EXHIBIT

I went to the Indiana Jones exhibit this past weekend, and man was it awesome! I got to do a mini puzzle game that involved looking for clues, and at the end I even got to get my name up on a board. Going to the exhibit made me realize just how much I loved "Raiders of the Lost Ark".

THROWBACK THURSDAY:THE PRINCE OF EGYPT

AFRICASH: TOP 10 RICHEST PEOPLE IN AFRICA

Last week, Isabel Dos Santos, from Angola, became Africa's first-ever female billionaire. I became interested to see if Africa had any other rich people living there, after all, money isn't something that only exists in America.

FASHION FRIDAY: CAIRO FASHION WEEK

There are a few things we expect to see at fashion week: a catwalk, models, fancy clothes, designers, fashion editors, bloggers, and amazing after-parties. So, it was a breath of fresh air when I heard about Cairo Fashion Week. The goal of CFW, which kicks off today, is to be the bridge between different brands and labels in the industry; it is a week long event aimed to bring local designers, retailers, buyers, fashion houses and the general public together.
