Warning: May Contain Spoilers For The Last Jedi

I, like many other geeks out there, have been blown away by the latest installment in the Star Wars franchise, The Last Jedi. Seriously, my jaw dropped half way through the movie, and I could not pick it back up again.  

As a long-time fan of the Star Wars universe, from my undying love of the original trilogy, my shameless defense of the prequels, and my almost endless consumption of the books, TV series, and spin off movies, I can say that The Last Jedi might be my new favorite.

Team Jordandenè has been struggling to keep this awesome news quiet for weeks now. A little while back, we got to hang out at the coolest photo shoot ever: RockLove Jewelry for Marvel Studios’ Black Panther, modeled by our friend Robyn of Geek Girl Strong. Their modern take on a strong, fierce Wakandan warrior woman made for an awesome fitness-inspired photoshoot.

RockLove & Marvel officially released the collection on Tuesday. And it’s so full of T’Challa-inspired goodness, we had to share it with you all here, too.

I’ve never had exceptionally high hopes for spin-offs, but when it was announced Freeform picked up grown-ish, a series about black-ish oldest daughter Zoey Johnson going off to college, I was intrigued.

So, I came for my love of Black-ish. I stayed because, in just one episode, Grown-ish proved to be the most arguably fashionable show currently on the air. And along the way, I fell in love with every single one of these insanely talented kids and their stories, living through each of them as someone who didn’t have a traditional college freshman experience (fashion school in the middle of the city with a 90% female population. None of that last 10% was as dreamy as Luka Sabbat.)

Unless every red carpet from now on serves looks as iconic as those that graced the purple carpet at the Black Panther premier, I don’t want to hear about it. The film’s Monday night premier called for “regal attire” fit for Wakandan royalty. Surprising nobody, everyone showed up and showed out.

And because of this, all other red carpets have been ruined for me.

Here are some of my favorites:
