Fab or Not: Zoe Saldana Hits Paris Fashion Week

Thu, 05 Jul 2012 23:40:57 -0500

Zoe Saldana traveled to Paris to attend the Giorgio Armani Prive show for Paris Fashion Week Haute Couture. The actress kept it flirty with this printed cocktail dress.

She kept accessories simple with a black clutch and black stilettos.

What do you think? Fab or too simple for Paris? I, for one, think Zoe is such a natural beauty and she looks polished!

In L's Closet: Maxi Dresses

Wed, 04 Jul 2012 18:30:53 -0500

Happy Fourth of July! Hope everyone is enjoying some fun in the sun. I spent my day hanging out with family and eating BBQ. In the spirit of today, I chose to wear this cobalt blue Lush knit maxi dress. I love maxi dresses because they’re simple and add easy to dress up as well as wear casually. I’ve never been a fan of dressing in a costume for the 4th so I didn’t want to go the flag route. Instead, I stuck with blues and whites.

As for accessories, I found this Stephan & Co. necklace at Nordstrom the other day that instantly reminded me of Kate Spade’s New York Frame of Mind Collection.

Kate Spade Frame of Mind Graduated Necklace $198

Stephan & Co. Facet Statement Necklace $16

I love finding steals and deals. Who says you have to always splurge to find designer looks?

If you must indulge in the flag trend, please don’t style it from head to toe! Use it to accent your outfit…

Have fun!

Fashion Recap: 2012 BET Awards Red Carpet

Wed, 04 Jul 2012 00:44:28 -0500

Sorry for the late post…

There were many fashion hits and misses as usual on the red carpet of the BET Awards this year. I can’t decide on who was best dressed, but I’m going to give my vote to Queen Bey since she just had a baby and she looked AMAZING!

Aside from the fashion, the Awards were much better this year. There was a lot less foolery and more memorable moments. Hands down, thank you BET for putting together a great Whitney Houston Tribute. All the performers apart of the tribute definitely gave their all. My favorite was Brandy and of course the tearful song Whitney’s mother Cissy performed.

Supermodel Seltia Ebanks was definitely a close runner-up for best dressed in my eyes.

Fab or Not: Kim K. in Paris | RHOA Marlo in LA

Wed, 04 Jul 2012 00:09:13 -0500

Kim Kardashian made her way to Paris following her appearance at the BET Awards which I might add I was actually surprised to see her at. Kim K. is known to not pass up a public appearance, but I thought she might have felt a little out her element. Regardless, the reality star still looked gorgeous aside her new man Kanye.

The two lovebirds attended the Stephan Rolland Couture Showcase during Paris Fashion Week. Kim wore this interesting black dress with origami adornment along with Christian Louboutin stilettos. And Kanye kept it simple and classic wearing all back. I wasn’t in love with this dress at first, but it is growing on me and I think it was fitting for the occasion.

And back in America, RHOA star Marlo Hampton went out for dinner in Beverly Hill’s at Mastro’s Restaurant.

Cute look for her. High slits are definitely in this season.

In L's Closet: Tribal Print Leggings

Tue, 03 Jul 2012 23:26:00 -0500

This morning I woke up in a ferocious spirit and decided to channel some tribal influences into my ensemble. It’s summertime so Don’t be afraid to indulge in color as well as crazy fun prints. I wanted to mix things up and I’m kind of digging the outcome. I’ve definitely gotten good use out of this tangerine blazer as well as my tribal print leggings. I kept things neutral with nude wedges.

What They Wore: Paris Fashion Week

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 23:46:20 -0500

Celebs and fashionistas have been hitting up Paris Fashion Week in style. Leather is definitely a must have for the wardrobe. Olivia Palermo wore this leather peplum top paired with navy shorts to the Dior Haute-Couture Show

At the Versace Show, Jessica Alba amazed me in this fitted leather dress.

The two lovebirds from Glee were also in attendance. I am loving Lea Michele’s stilettos.

And at the Givenchy Menswear Fashion Show, newly engaged couple Amare Stoudemire and his fiance were present. Not sure what is up with Amare’s look… the beard and the cap is giving me hobo, but his fiance looks fab in her Givenchy ensemble.

Fab or Not: Christina Milian x Thatcher Leggings

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 23:23:04 -0500

Singer Christina Milian was spotted this past weekend at the BET Awards Radio Room wearing Minimalist Axis Openwork Leggings by Thatcher. She paired these printed leggings with tangerine stilettos and a grey crop top. I’m definitely a fan of this look. Love how she brought the tangerine in her leggings out with her accessories.

These leggings come in a variety of prints and colors for $155. Check out some other cool designs below.

Top-Remain/Pants-Fire/Necklace-DIY/Shoes-Boutique find

This bib necklace was somewhat of a DIY. I cut it off of a old top I had hidden in my closet that I never wore because it fit funny. But I’ve always love the beading in the top so I just trimmed around the hem and voila… instant statement necklace. I love remixing old wardrobe.

These sandals I got at Envy Boutique in Atlanta for 50% off.

Scandal-ous Accessories: Kate Spade Magazine Clutch

Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:30:44 -0500

The Scandal star Kerry Washington was spotted toting this super chic magazine style clutch at an Essence Magazine event. I love Kerry’s style and as usual she looks gorgeous in all white look.

If you’re looking to pull of the all white look this Summer, don’t forget to add a pop of color which Kerry does perfectly with her Brian Atwood Pumps and this unique Kate Spade New York “Charm-Travel Magazine” Clutch.

This clutch also opens to newsprint lining and will run you about $298. Love it!
