Halloween Costumes for Your Pet from PetSmart, #MonsterCute

Fido and Fancy may not agree, but it's fun to dress up your pets for Halloween. And from Disney characters, to alien and princess "rider" costumes and festive pumpkin sweaters and tutus from Martha Stewart Pets, PetSmart has a variety of too cute costumes for cats, dogs, and even guinea pigs. But if your furry friend is fussy about being dressed up like a bumble bee or little devil, a tiny witch or cowboy hat will still do the trick...or treat.

It pays to get your pet in the Halloween spirit, too. Through Sunday, October 25, pet parents can show off their adorable kitties and pooches in PetSmart’s fifth annual Monster Cute contest. One grand prize winner from three categories – scariest, cutest and most #trending – will each win a $1,000 American Express gift card!

To enter, simply post photos of you and your creatively dressed pet by using #MonsterCute on Instagram and Twitter, or by visiting the Monster Cute page on the PetSmart website. The winners will be announced on Halloween (October 31).

Conway Discount Clothing Chain Closing in New York City

It's the end of an era. Conway discount stores are closing . As of this weekend, a sign on the sole Herald Square location (34th Street btwn 7th and 8th Ave) says the store will close in "7 Days." Before I relocated to New York City, I was introduced to the discount chain while on a bus trip from Baltimore. I recall the first time I saw Conway's signature pink bags carried by hurried shoppers in midtown. And Miss Foster, the trip organizer and a bargain hunter from way back, took me to the store for the first time. Conway store in the Fulton Mall./Tracy E. Hopkins When I moved here in 1994, my love affair with Conway continued. I furnished my first apartment with discount knick-knacks and home goods from the store. And much to my chagrin, in hindsight, I curated most of my wardrobe for my first full-time job from the long-shuttered 42nd Street and Third Avenue store. One regretful ensemble: Lime green and white checkered pants with a matching lime green

Memorial Day Weekend 2023 Cultural Highlight: DanceAfrica Festival at the Brooklyn Academy of Music and Throughout Brooklyn

In her essay, " African Dance is Medicine for the Mind, Body and Spirit ," dancer, teacher and choreographer Cherie Hill wrote, "The more I perform African dance, the more I discover and enjoy euphoria.

The festival celebrates Black joy and resilience and the regal power of African dance.

In a Brooklyn that has quickly become gentrified, I love to see us walking tall, beaming with pride and to quote Bey, "shining, shining, shining, y

The Re-Education of NeNe Leakes: The Reality Star Talks About College Hill, What Housewives She's Still Friends With and More

I’ve been a fan of The Real Housewives of Atlanta since the beginning. So I jumped at the chance to chat with original RHOA cast member and breakout star NeNe Leakes. It’s been a tough couple of years since NeNe parted ways with the show. In 2021 her husband Gregg lost his battle with colon cancer and earlier this year she filed a discrimination lawsuit against her former employer, Bravo. But on the brighter side, the 54-year-old is dating again and starring in the BET limited reality series, College Hill: Celebrity Edition. Along with other headline-grabbing reality TV stars including, Big Freedia, Lamar Odom, Stacey Dash and Ray J., NeNe and the members of the cast lived together and attended classes at the historically Black Texas Southern University. We asked NeNe what it was like to go back to school, what the biggest misconception about her is, which housewives she's still friendly with, and more.
