The Item: Tyra Banks Wearing Fouad Sarkis Couture Gown. Tyra was spotted in the glamorous monochromatic design while backstage for AGT (America’s Got Talent).

You Asked: So much drama this season, have you been watching? I only watch for Tyra. Guess I’m having America’s Next Top Model withdrawals haha But here’s a picture of the dress she was wearing. Just want to know the designer behind her dress.

I’m normally not always feeling Tyra’s fashion, don’t get me wrong she’s beautiful!! But there’s just something about this dress. This time she got it right.

Ask and Tell: Tyra Banks Wearing Fouad Sarkis Couture Gown

The Verdict: Hey fashion spotter it was very nice chatting with you! Furthermore, we have to agree with you. While everyone is talking about Mel B. and Simon we too are stuck on auntie Ty Ty’s gown!

Therefore, let’s get to Tyra’s ensemble details. For the taping of America’s Got Talent Banks wore a floor length, black and white striped gown by Fouad Sarkis Couture. We love this dress not only because it is elegant and oozing of sophistication, but it’s design is wonderful for women who want to achieve a “slimming” effect with their fashion.

Remember when it comes to styling vertical stripes will create the illusion of being longer as well as leaner. As one can see, Fouad Sarkis Couture really understands the female body. Nevertheless, no outfit is complete without accessories. For her look Tyra chose to wear a stunning Black Pave Ring by Mahrukh Akuly Jewelry.

Hope that answered your fashion question! If you or a style obsessed gal pal has one they would like to ask give us a follow on Instagram, slide into our DMs and ask away.

The Item: Mary J Blige Wearing Balmain Spring 2017 RTW. Mary was seen looking all cool in blue while performing down in hot Miami.

You Asked: Don’t you just love blue! I have noticed that you guys post a lot of blue clothes. So I figured that you must like it like me. I do have a question about Mary’s concert look. Who was she wearing? I think I have an idea but would like some confirmation. Thanks again.

Ask and Tell: Mary J Blige Wearing Balmain Spring 2017 RTW

The Verdict: Yes, we do love our blue! Actually, we consider all color to be a fashion friend. Nevertheless, we digress. For her concert in Miami, Mary J Blige said no more drama when it comes to style and pulled out the big couture guns. The songstress hit the stage in a garment from the Balmain Spring 2017 RTW (Ready to Wear) collection.

Now Mary’s look was not exactly how it was styled during Balmain’s Spring 2017 RTW runway show. Blige’s outfit transitions into an one shoulder ensemble. The model on the catwalk rocked a coverall with dramatic sleeves. Nevertheless, both versions have a voguish flair that sets the style bar high.

Ask and Tell: Beyonce Stella McCartney Shirt Dress at Jay Z Rehearsal

The Verdict: Hello and sorry for the delay in response! Nevertheless, we too think Bey’s easy breezy OOTD vibes have a very modern, youthful feel. Moreover, she pulls it off seamlessly.

Beyonce is wearing a Stella McCartney shirt dress from the designer’s Spring 2017 collection. If you are interested in purchasing this look online search for: “Stella McCartney Lindsey Cotton Top or Lindsey Thanks Girl Cotton Top.” Shall we talk price now? Well, that’s where things get a little odd. There seems to be no set price for this particular design.

From our research we have seen a dollar range of $229 and up. One online store is even selling it for $750. However, the Stella McCartney website currently has a price tag of $383 for the top.

Nevertheless, Bey finished her ensemble with some pretty stylish accessories. She rocked a Planes hat as well as Off White shoulder handbag. Lastly, the singer strutted her stuff in a pair of Jay Z “444” album customized Puma sneakers.

Ask and Tell: Zendaya Wears Gucci Princetown Angry Cat Loafers

Arianne Suggs August 22, 2017August 22, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Zendaya Wears Gucci Princetown Angry Cat Loafers as spotted on Instagram.

You Asked: So I was zooming in on Zendaya’s shoes because I thought I saw an eyeball. Then I got my friend involved and she saw the same thing! It looks like an animal print on them, almost like a cat. As odd as they are somehow Zendaya makes them look amazing. Can you confirm about the shoes? Is it a kitten? Who makes these?? lol.

Ask and Tell: Zendaya Wears Gucci Princetown Angry Cat Loafers

The Verdict: Denim on denim is a style that can look chic all on it’s own. However, we have to agree Zendaya has a personal flair that can take things up a level effortlessly. Moreover, you will be happy to know that you and your awesome detective friend are not seeing things. There is definitely an eye of an animal on Zendaya’s designer loafers.

To be exact what you are seeing is a cat, an angry one at that. Daya’s shoes are produced by Gucci and they are named the Gucci Princetown Angry Cat Loafers that retail for $750. A hilarious name especially since Angry Cat is such a meme and social media phenomenon.

Nevertheless, Zendaya also wears some other pricey, but stylish accessories. For instance, she rocks the John Hardy Jewelry Modern Chain Bracelet in gold. The bracelet retails for just under $600.
