Arianne Suggs May 20, 2016May 20, 2016Leave a Comment

Ciara we weren’t ready for all the slayage! Our girl CiCi caused another break in the Internet yesterday with her insane physique and style. The dime piece singer was in Los Angeles, California to promote this Sunday’s Billboard Music Awards which she is hosting with hip hop artist, Ludacris. To help get the word out the pair that collaborated on Ciara’s hit song Ride It, visited funny man Jimmy Kimmel on his popular late night show. Ciara stunned from head-to-toe in the studio and on the streets of NYC in a sexy white David Koma dress.

Ciara’s David Koma dress highlighted every last one of curves! The hip hugging design screamed, “Hello!” With a deep plunging neckline as well as thigh high slit. Ciara looked like a perfect 10 and with a body like hers why not flaunt it?

The David Koma dress was the main entrée to the serious style CiCi was serving up at Jimmy Kimmel Live. However, let us not forget her absolutely flawless hair and makeup! Ciara accentuated her chic David Koma gown with flowing blonde waves and a beauty look that included a bold red lip. Ciara is naturally beautiful and does not need much makeup if any. However, it was still wonderful to see Ciara in such an alluring lip shade. Such an enticing makeup choose harmonized well with her overall look.

If this is Ciara’s style just for promotion we can’t wait to see what she wears Sunday! Mark your calendar and don’t forget to catch Ciara and Ludacris host the Billboard Awards May 22nd at 8pm.

Met Gala 2016 Fashion Recap

Arianne SuggsUpdated on May 4, 2016May 3, 2016Leave a Comment

What an evening of fashion! The biggest stars all came to show off their most stylish threads made by the most renown designers. Every year this invite only event started by Vogue Editor-In-Chief, Anna Wintour, receives a new theme. This year at the Met Gala 2016 event the theme was Manus x Machina.

There were so many creative garments that captured the essence of the Manus x Machina Met Gala 2016 affair. Some gown highlights spotted during the Met Gala 2016 ball that we immensely enjoyed ranged from the subtle to the deliciously dramatic. Let’s begin with the more conservative yet note-worthy designs shall we?

Singer Jennifer Hudson stunned in a white floor length gown that added drama with a gorgeous flowing train. The color palette may have been considered mute or a safe choice by some but the custom HM gown’s overall design made quite the statement. Actress Gugu Mbatha-Raw also wore a beautiful white gown by designer, Gabriela Hearst. How did the technology theme play its part in the Gabriela Hearst design? The gown featured beading down the sleeve sewn by hand that spelled out the word, “love” in Morse code. We love!

Ciara, Naomi Campbell, Zendaya Coleman, Simone Boyce, La La Anthony, Jourdan Dunn and Lupita Nyong’o all wore shimmery and flashy garments. Actress Lupita Nyong’o wore a jade sequined dress by Calvin Klein and model Jourdan Dunn wore a dazzling metallic design by Balmain. Zendaya looked statuesque in an one shoulder piece by Michael Kors. Host Simone Boyce worked her “space cadet” look by Three As Four.

Supermodel Naomi Campbell showed the young’ins how it is done in an insanely beautiful garment by Roberto Cavalli. Jourdan Dunn gave us style visions of what a chic robot would adorn. She walked the carpet in metallic Balmain. Ciara’s amazing HM custom dress incorporated gorgeous crystal detailing. So many that Ciara had to stand on the way to the Met Gala so as not to break them. Now that is fashion dedication!

Do girls in black have more fun? Well by what we saw on Kerry Washington, Zoe Kravitz and Nicki Minaj it sure looked like it! Minaj made heads turn in Moschino while Zoe gave onlookers a slice of fashion heaven from the front and back in Valentino. Kerry Washington looked like a vision in Marc Jacobs. She also confirmed all the chatter about baby number two by preciously holding her baby bump. Congratulations Kerry!

Colorful garments were spotted numerous times making their Met Gala 2016 debut. The Knowles sisters both served with bold hues. Beyoncé wore a form-fitting Givenchy design while Solange wore a yellow David La Port creation. Neutral colors were also spotted on FKA Twigs and ballerina Misty Copeland. Twigs made the photographers swoon thanks to her Versace ensemble. Nevertheless, one of the biggest fashion moments of the night was owned by actress Zoe Saldana. Saldana floated along during the Met Gala 2016 in a feathered style by Dolce and Gabbana. The length literally took our breath away. Just stunning!

White House Correspondents Dinner Fashion Recap

Arianne Suggs May 3, 2016May 3, 2016Leave a Comment

Everyone brought their style A-Game to dine with the Obamas at this year’s White House Correspondents dinner. There seemed to be several fashion trends spotted during the night. Therefore, without further ado here is our fashion recap of the White House Correspondents Dinner!

Color played a huge fashion role at the WHCD. Black was a major hit among several starlets. Wearers included: Actresses Kerry Washington, Gabrielle Union, Rosario Dawson, Tracee-Ellis Ross as well as Actress/Reality star Nene Leakes. Although, length also played a key factor with floor-length gowns dominating the red carpet. Kerry Washington kept her LBD (Little Black Dress) around knee length. The black dresses seen were not a one note either. Intricate detailing, high splits and sexy cut-outs gave the noire gowns sophisticated and sexy allure.

Bold Color was also trending this year at the White House Correspondents Dinner. Attendees that dared to rock a boisterous tint included: La La Anthony, supermodel Lais Ribiero, actress Jada Pinkett Smith and Gayle King. An ethereal hue to wear during the spring season is any shade of white. Stunning actresses Regina King and Vivica A. Fox both demonstrated how to turn heads in white couture.

Tamron Hall took things up a further notch in the realm of color. Besides her gown being a gorgeous gold tint it was full of sparkle and glimmering grandeur! Hall gave us retro Hollywood glamour and we loved it.

One sleeve gowns as well as plunging necklines were also a trend among the ladies. Both style details gave the stars sassy appeal. Kudos to the stylists and well done ladies you looked great!

Iconic Prince Fashion Trends That Will Never Be Forgotten

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 22, 2016April 22, 2016Leave a Comment

Prince was a genius. He made music that has stood the test of time transcending generations and changes in styles of music. He made Doves Cry, threw the best party of 1999 and had us all heralding the dance cry, “Let’s Go Crazy!” There are many ways to look back on his extraordinary legacy; nevertheless, we would be honored to present to you a few of the many iconic Prince trends that will never be forgotten.

Ruffles:

Eat your heart out Captain Jack Sparrow! Long before the Cap, Prince made ruffles of Mozart’s era look modern and cool. His shirts shall live in infamy, for not just any man could possess the je ne sais quoi to pull this particular garment off.

The Color Purple:

We all loved the song that incorporated this royal shade, but we all loved it more when Prince would allow it to be draped upon him. If there was one tint that this legend owned better than any other artist it would be purple.

Exaggerated Collars:

Iconic Prince fashion trends would not be complete without making reference to his prominent shirt collars. Prince enjoyed boisterous couture. His stature may have been a mere 5’2 but his style choices were larger than life.

Mixed Prints:

Stripes with polka dots? No problem! Such a feat may be a styling nightmare for some, however, for Prince it was a walk in the park.

Stunner Shades:

On the stage or off of one Prince could always be spotted in a pair of creatively designed eye-wear. No frame was too big and no brand or amount of lenses was off limits. Prince didn’t go after the trends, he simply made them.

Metallics:

Before Rihanna shined bright like a diamond, Prince was blinding us with his fabulous metallics. From his jewels to his shirts and jackets he went bold. Moreover, he was unafraid to mix and blend. When it came to Prince’s style, gold and silver never clashed.

Cropped Tops:

Prince was the master of androgynous dress. He elegantly wove together looks infused with masculinity yet possessing touches of femininity. The ending result was always a delectable, seductive ensemble.

Prince was not an one-dimensional artist when it came to his music or style adroitness. His music was a perfect pairing with any and all esteemed iconic Prince fashion trends. Donatella Versace, summed it up best stating,

“Nobody has married music and fashion as Prince did… Prince was a genius, most of all my friend. Love you, miss you.”

Prince will be greatly missed by one and all. Nevertheless, his artistry and illustrious image will continue to celebrate his legacy that is far too grand to ever forget.
