Oprah’s moving tribute to Tina 

From one icon to another. Oprah shared a heartfelt post on Oprah.com today about her “shero” Tina Turner, who has passed away aged 83. Of her relationship with the “forever goddess of rock ’n’ roll,” she says: “I started out as a fan I would’ve been fine remaining a Tina groupie, but becoming her friend was a blessing in my lifetime.” Oprah remembers the monumental moments in their friendship, and celebrates Turner’s devoted husband Erwin and everything he did to help her in her years of ailing health. “She once shared with me that when her time came to leave this earth, she would not be afraid, but excited and curious. Because she had learned how to LIVE surrounded by her beloved husband, Erwin, and friends. I am a better woman, a better human, because her life touched mine. She was indeed simply the best,” Oprah writes. Read the full post here.

Dress obsession! La Ligne x Don’t Let Disco release conscious collab

Two New York-based brands have come together on a special piece, aptly named the Disco dress. Artisanal jewelry company Don’t Let Disco and La Ligne’s new linen number, available in black and green colorways, is adorned with recycled African brass beads and handcrafted ceramic beads by female artisans in Ukraine. Speaking of Don’t Let Disco founder Ashley Harris, formerly a director at Sotheby’s auction house, La Ligne’s co-founders Meredith Melling, Molly Howard, and Valerie Macaulay said: “We’ve been fans of Ashley’s work for years and are so excited to finally bring the Disco Dress to life. We fully believe that women should have fun with getting dressed, so together with Don’t Let Disco, we’ve created a dress that captures the playful essence of both of our brands.” The frock is available online, at La Ligne’s store, Nordstrom, and Net-a-Porter for $395, with a portion of the sales going to the Lower East Side Girls Club.
