Meet Shiona Turini! She’s the fly and fearless new Fashion Market Director at Cosmo Magazine, and she’s also a Hampton University alumni (Woot Woot!) My high school best friend went there!
Now, Shiona is definitely not one of those chicks that you’d expect to see flossing a new pair of gold grillz, but recently, she decided she wanted to channel her inner Beyonce –or shall we say Baddie Bey– so she ventured into Rafaello & Co. in New York City to get some custom bottoms made. And she documented it all on video!
In the short 2 minute clip, we get to see the exact process of creating the grillz. From sizing the client’s mouth, to placing the actual bling onto a compound. The process takes about a day (maybe more if you really want to do it big!).
The results:
You know you aren’t a real Beyonce fan if she doesn’t have you wearing ‘ratchet’ hoops and gangsta grillz while singing, ‘I woke up like this! I woke up like this! We Flawless’
Watch Shiona get her grillz made, plus come of my favorite fly chicks who rocked out in grillz below:
Would you wear some gold grillz? Just for fun?
Shiona got her grillz made just in time for fashion week. The question is…did she wear them!
To find out more about Shiona, catch up with her on Twitter or Instagram!
Hi, I'm Necole!

AN old phase. Grills been rocked since I was a lil girl. lol…my mama had gold teeth in the 70’s
Kelis’s grill in the Bossy video back in 2006 is what made me want some gold teeth lol
I love grills. Most fashion trends get recycled.
Not a new in trend for Baltimore… u have to rock them right too
I love her, her street style is impeccable!
I just feel like grills are played. Even the “cool kids” already did it twice.
Wish I could afford some: (
Some people wear it as everyday accessories and some just for videos or performances. I could wear it once as part of a costume but not everyday.
Grills are so ghetto
Yeahhhhh they kinda cool
Stupid ghetto
Not feeling the grills but….HU!!!
ShaShou Shainaa
Bey killed it!
No. No and no.
I don’t like grills if your going to get them get the real thing a lot of things are “Ghetto” let others tell it I’ve had my teeth done when I was 17 it ruins your teeth so that’s why I am getting them remove and nothing is ghetto about me I have education, know how to act civil when it’s given in return, I also pay my own bills so have several seats please and thank you that’s what’s wrong with people today you just look at people and assume you know something smh
It can be very cute, just like hoop earrings or dookie braids, or any other super trendy thing we do… everything is not for everyone but that’s fashion…
Not a fan of them.
Yea Circa ’95
I still want a set for myself.. lol
I have some and rocked them for my birthday last month
I thought this played out…
