Jayme Lawson is having a major moment right now.
From her standout role as 'Pearline' in the new hit film Sinners to her steady rise across Hollywood's biggest stages, the bombshell beauty is proving she's got range—on screen and the red carpet. Whether posing at high-profile events or serving face at fashion week, Jayme's style feels intentional and fly, yet effortless.
And her radiant, melaninated skin adds to her overall look. The DMV native is a natural baddie – with a bawdy and confidence that make her looks hit even harder.

Jayme has a soft, petite frame, but make no mistake—her presence is powerful. There's a quiet way about her that commands attention, even in the most subtle silhouettes. And while we're swooning over her fashion choices, we're also obsessed with her skin.
Sis glows like she drinks eight glasses of water and minds her business daily. If that is the secret, we need the details now.
Jayme's red carpet presence combines old Hollywood glam and contemporary edge. She's not afraid to play with structure, texture, volume, layering, or color. Whether she's dripping in fringe and sequins at the Essence Black Women in Hollywood event or wrapped in soft velvet and minimalist glam at the Sinners premiere, she shows up like that girl.
You can tell she loves a bold silhouette – and, at times, a monochromatic moment. Working with celebrity stylists like Jason Rembert, Jayme knows how to lean into statement pieces that honor her deep chocolate skin and natural aura.
A review of Jayme's high-profile appearances shows that she gravitates toward jewel tones, metallics, soft blushes, and rich, earthy hues. She makes the most of luxe fabrics, such as tweed, tulle, and silk. Her aesthetic is graceful, feminine, flirty, and fearless.
Hair-wise, Jayme stays versatile. But she's a brown girl – are we really surprised?
We've seen her slay everything from a curly updo to sleek buns, a high pony, and a polished bob. Her beauty looks lean soft and glowy. Think neutral glam, soft lashes, and glossy lips. Gallery: 7 Pics That Show Jayme Lawson Is Having A Major Moment Right Now

Kimchi, burrito bowls, KFC: People love sneaking food into movie theaters. Here's why you should stop

Bottles of wine. Chipotle burrito bowls. Entire buckets of Kentucky Fried Chicken. Bay Area movie theater owners and managers have some wild stories about things patrons have snuck into cinemas — whether it's because of seemingly high prices, the thrill of breaking the rules or just someone's twisted and very specific desire to eat a Taco Bell Crunchwrap Supreme while watching 'Sinners.' 'I'll catch them with drinks or snacks, and I'm like, 'Really?'' Buck says. 'If you bring your own bowl to our theater, it costs $4 to fill it with popcorn. And you can bring a really big bowl.' Chronicle restaurant critic MacKenzie Chung Fegan recently wrote about the strange trend of people bringing outside food into restaurants — a masterful exploration of the social contract with a side of egg salad. It got me thinking about my personal red line: Never bring outside food into an independent movie theater. My hatred of outside food in the theater solidified during my 18 years as a Chronicle movie critic, when I would often go to advance screenings, filled by people who won radio contests. As if the free tickets weren't enough, many brought their own full dinners. (I'll never forget the woman who pulled out a Ziploc bag full of kimchi, and as the lights went down, started eating it with her fingers.) The concession stand prices can seem to justify the crime. The AMC Metreon in San Francisco sells a large popcorn for $11.79. Red Vines are $6.99, more than triple the cost of an identical box an escalator ride away at Target. (Independent theaters often have better deals, like the Cameo's bring-your-own-bowl $4 popcorn special. The Grand Lake Theater's popcorn prices range from $5 to $7, with real butter.) Truth be told, I hauled a Matson cargo ship worth of candy into theaters as a child, and in college wore a trenchcoat in summer weather so I could smuggle burritos for me and two friends into 'Days of Thunder' at the Fremont Theatre in San Luis Obispo. Let he who is free of Skittles in his pockets cast the first stone … And yet as a journalist, I've written too many stories about historic Bay Area theaters going full 'The Last Picture Show' and closing forever. Others seek non-profit models, GoFundMe campaigns and personal debt to stay afloat. If you love movies this should feel personal. And when it feels personal, paying $6.50 for a diet soda should feel less like robbery and more like a carbonated civic act. My first call is to Allen Michaan, who owns the Grand Lake Theater in Oakland and has been managing theaters since Aug. 16, 1972, when he took over the Rialto in Berkeley. 'The food subsidizes the operations of the theater,' Michaan begins, before giving a lesson in cinema economics. Theaters give between 50% and 65% of ticket sales back to the studio, with the blockbuster films that fill theaters all summer usually on the higher end of that range. And some studio films require a minimum length in theaters. If they bomb, theater owners are stuck with near-empty rooms. 'The remainder (of ticket revenue) is not enough to cover the operations of the theater,' Michaan said. 'We absolutely rely on the food sales to get us into the black.' For Cameo-owner Cathy Buck, being in the center of Wine Country has meant Wine Country problems. 'Before we had our beer and wine license, we used to have full wine bottles all the time in the theater,' she said. Michaan's darkest years just passed. For decades, a KFC was across the alley from his theater. 'We used to have people try to sneak in Kentucky Fried Chicken, which was always smelly and a mess,' he said. 'Thankfully the chicken place isn't next to the Grand Lake any more. Now it's a Starbucks.' When considering outside food, I place the corporate multiplexes in a different category. What you do there is between you and your god. But everyone I've met who runs an indie movie theater is hustling, and no one is getting rich. Michaan lost money on the Grand Lake for years — I wrote about it in 2010 — subsidizing the theater with his successful auction and antiques fair businesses. If there's an owner who is using those $6 boxes of Junior Mints to fund a stable of race horses, I haven't met her yet. However, one recent trend is combatting the outside food urges: better movie theater menus. The Alameda Theatre near my home partners with the adjacent Cinema Grill to offer movie-themed food and drink specials that align with what's playing. (Currently serving: 'The Human Torch,' a Fireball/Rumchata drink for the new 'Fantastic Four' movie.) The Balboa and 4-Star in San Francisco, both run by Cinema SF, have better beer selections than some local bars. The New Mission in San Francisco and New Parkway in Oakland have particularly robust menus; the Parkway's Peruvian tacos with slow-roasted pork and a pineapple-cabbage slaw are the best thing I've consumed in a movie theater. Buck offers her foodie clientele all-local fare, including partnerships with wineries, two different chocolatiers and two companies providing gelato. Her plans for the new 'Downton Abbey' movie out next month are a galaxy away from the Dune popcorn bucket. 'We're serving bubbles, English breakfast tea, both hot and cold, two kinds of tea sandwiches and two kinds of scones,' Buck said. 'We only have five seats left.' And though theater owners would prefer you hit the concession stand, they also say they're not aggressive about enforcing the outside food policy. 'We're not a police state about it,' Michaan said. In fact his biggest outside food problem, decades ago at a theater in Menlo Park, came from a manager who took the policy too strictly, at one point interrogating a couple with a small child. 'She made them pour out the formula in the baby's bottle, because it was outside food,' Michaan said. 'And I fired her! I mean, it's possible to take these things too far.'

"And Just Like That..." Is Now Over, And Here's How Every Character Ended Up

And Just Like That..., the Sex and the City reboot fans love to hate-watch, has come to an end after last night's series finale dropped on Max. I recognize that many SATC fans either stopped watching the reboot at some point or never watched it at all. I, however, couldn't look away and watched all three seasons, so if you're curious to know what happened to each character, here it is: Carrie Bradshaw ends up single and living alone in a huge Gramercy Park apartment that she originally bought for her and Aidan before they broke up. She's just finished writing her first fiction novel, and has found a way to be comfortable with being on her own for an indefinite amount of time. Miranda Hobbes ends up with a girlfriend, Joy, and is on good terms with Steve after the dissolution of their marriage following Miranda's infidelity and unhappiness. She and Steve are also about to be grandparents since 20-year-old Brady accidentally got a young woman pregnant after they hooked up a couple of times. Charlotte York-Goldenblatt returned to being an art dealer in Season 2 after previously being a stay-at-home mom. At the end of the show, she's basically living her same ol' picture-perfect life after Harry recovered from prostate cancer. Samantha Jones is not mentioned in the finale. The last time the show mentions her is in Season 3 episode 5, when Carrie texts her to ask about an author who's her new neighbor. Samantha's last (and only) on-screen appearance on AJLT was in the Season 2 finale when she called Carrie to tell her she was going to surprise her at her party, but her flight was delayed. She still lives and works in London. John James Preston, famously known as Mr. Big, died in the very first episode of the series. He had a heart attack while working out on a Peleton. Aidan Shaw ends up still living in Virginia, where his three sons and ex-wife are. His last appearance is in Season 3 Episode 9, where he and Carrie break up after an overly complicated relationship. The final nail in the coffin was the revelation that two decades after Carrie cheated on him, he still didn't trust her around other men. Stanford Blatch was written out of AJLT in Season 1 after his actor, Willie Garson, died. They wrote Stanford off by saying he left for Japan to follow his client — a teenage TikToker — and then decided to divorce Anthony and become a Shinto monk. Anthony Marantino gets divorced from Stanford Blatch in Season 1 and ends the show engaged to a 29-year-old Italian poet named Giuseppe. Anthony also owns a bakery called Hot Fellas that is staffed by hot guys, and where Giuseppe also works. Seema Patel, one of AJLT's new additions to the SATC universe, started her own brokerage after she lost the opportunity to be the sole owner of the real estate company she worked at. She's also in a loving relationship with Carrie's gardener, Adam, a free-spirited younger man who doesn't believe in marriage or wearing deodorant. Lisa Todd Wexley, better known as LTW, was another one of the new characters AJLT introduced to this franchise. At the end of the series, she's more or less where she was at the beginning of it: an extremely successful documentarian who's happily married with kids. Nya Wallace, a professor at Columbia Law School (and Miranda's teacher-turned friend), did not return for Season 3. Her storyline in Season 2 ended with her being elected to the American Law Institute and navigating life after splitting up with her husband, Andre. Finally, Che Diaz, the non-binary queer stand-up comic who was Miranda's first queer relationship, did not return to Season 3 following their breakup in Season 2. And just like that, another chapter of the Sex and the City franchise is over! I can't believe this chapter even existed in the first place, and part of me thinks we'll be getting another chapter in 10 years, but so long for now!
