Claire’s Life: Toasting to the C.R.O.W.N. Act Ending Discrimination Against Natural Hair with Dove, Esi Eggleton Bracey, Kelli Richardson Lawson, and More!

This morning, I toasted with Dove, Esi Eggleston Bracey, Kelli Richardson Lawson, Tai Beauchamp, Steven Jones, Latham Thomas, and many more to celebrate advancements with the C.R.O.W.N. Act and learn more about how we can galvanize our communities to end discrimination based on hair type in the workplace and beyond.

In case you’re not familiar, the C.R.O.W.N. act stands for “Creating a Respectful and Open World For Natural Hair.” Legislation surrounding the CROWN Act seeks to end discrimination against black women and men for wearing their natural hair at work and in school ! In 2019 alone, Dove and the CROWN Coalition have passed the CROWN Act in both California and New York! THIRTEEN more states are in progress AND a Federal Bill was introduced just last week.

My hope is that working with Dove and the Crown Act, young ladies of the next generation don’t have to worry about their hair when applying or on the job–they can focus on their talent and adding value.

Learn more about Dove and the CROWN act at Dove.com and TheCrownAct.com, and stay tuned for more ways we can get this ACT passed nationally and internationally.

*For the day, I wore a top by Reco Chapelle, a House of CB skirt, and Christian Louboutin pumps.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
