Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 27, 2017June 27, 2017Leave a Comment

In NEW YORK! We have to admit that from the beginning we were pretty excited to hear that Mr. Champagnepapi would be hosting the first ever NBA Awards. He certainly earned his place in sports television history by helping to revive the at times yawn-worthy ESPY Awards. Nevertheless, Drake hosting is one thing, however its his fashion statement that we truly want to talk about! Today’s Get Your Man Right is all about Drake Hosts NBA Awards Wearing Tom Ford.

Get Your Man Right: Drake Hosts NBA Awards Wearing Tom Ford

Got a guy who deep down believes he’s got some serious secret agent vibes? Blame it on his Playstation or XBOX, but several males would love to have a 007 fashion moment at least once in life … perhaps with a couple of six foot tall supermodels on his arm as well.

Drake’s Tom Ford ensemble for the award ceremony was very James Bond-ish. The white coat screamed Monte Carlo gamble time. Plus, this ensemble is easy for guys to recreate because it’s essentially just two tones: black and white. No fear of messing up the look from not knowing how or being very good at matching.

White jackets look amazing on a large range of skin tones and black pants are universally flattering on everyone. Moreover, bow ties are a nice departure from the norm. If your man likes to have a little more fun with his clothes he more than likely wouldn’t mind switching up his tie game.

Not too long after Wild Thoughts debut, news hit which later was confirmed by Manolo Blahnik himself that the shoes were in fact from Rihanna’s upcoming collection. The now infamous caged Manolo Blahnik Poison Ivy sandal heels will retail for a whopping $2,325! Certainly a splurge or one of those deals where all your girls pitch in and share a pair.

The rest of Rihanna’s collection with Manolo Blahnik is just as stunning. The utilization of precious stones as well as clear straps maintain its theme throughout. We love the details because it perfectly marries indulgence with tons of sex appeal. Nevertheless, we are not surprised that Blahnik and Rihanna have created such magic. For this is not the duo’s first rodeo together.

So where did Miss Harlow have her golden moment? Winnie was an attendee at the Inaugural fundraising dinner of the Petra Stunt Foundation. The event is held in London, England.

On social many fashionistas instantly fell in love with Harlow’s look. However, some of them wondered, who is Temperley London? Temperley London is an iconic British fashion brand that is a celebrity favorite. What famous faces have rocked this high-end couture label? Thandie Newton, Frieda Pinto, Izzy Bizu, Kate Hudson, Alessandra Anbrosio, Lianne La Havas, Salma Hayek and Rita Ora just to name a few.

Naomi Campbell, Iman, Tyra Banks, Beverly Johnson, Donayale Luna, Jasmine Tookes and Jourdan Dunn. All black supermodels who have help push open the door wider in the fashion industry in order to allow for more diversity. Now name twenty black designers. Sadly that is a little harder to do for most and only goes to prove there is still more work to do within the fashion realm. Nevertheless, fashion label Saints by SJ is working hard to change the style game, yet again.

So then, who is this new fashion brand that is taking the industry by storm? Sisters Natacha and Anise Saint-Juste, make up the fashion design-duo behind SAINTS by S.J. The Haitian born designers know all about honing one’s craft as well as “keeping it in the family.”

This education gave the girls much confidence to take on the beast known as the fashion industry. They recently showcased their Saints by SJ Spring/Summer 2017 collection which oozed of sophistication as well as romanticism. The sisters are a fresh breath of style air that are plowing the road and movement of more black girls making waves in fashion.

This backpack truly is every bit of Hollywood. Seriously, just for a moment, humor us and think about Tinseltown. Being the entertainment capital of the world its glitzy, bold, effortlessly cool and with newcomers streaming in everyday screaming, “Hey I’m a rock star!”

So then, for any creative to name their accessory after Hollywood the piece just has to be a showstopper. Enter the Moschino brand with their wild and cool leader, Jeremy Scott. Designer Jeremy Scott is always a genius when it comes to creating pieces that not only get people talking, but have them doing a double take. The Moschino Hollywood Patch Backpack gains plenty of spotlight due to its ‘in your face’ patchwork.

Patchwork always looks edgy because it has a very DIY feel and vibe. It looks very personalized in many cases even if it is not. Furthermore, the patches give the backpack a very “Rebel Without Cause” flair and is perfect for the girl who wants to show off her boisterous side.

Not a patch fan? Well, how do you feel about Spongebob (LOL)? Yep, Mr. Squarepants is back in the Moschino lineup. We spotted the Bob in the Moschino Resort 18 collection. Therefore, whether you are feeling edgy or just childhood nostalgic, Moschino has a backpack to suit your mood.
