Happy Monday, Fashion Bombers and Bombshells!
Vuitton here currently regrouping after a long weekend and dreading having to go back to work today, as I’m sure the lot of you can empathize. And it seems a few celebs are in our shoes as well. Moving from pillar to post, the stars were caught by photographers at events or just plain old shopping.
But were they snapped while looking their best, or was it best for a few of their ensembles not to have seen the light of day? You be the judge.
First up is Ciara, who was spotted shopping it up over the weekend at Barney’s New York…
The singer went for a military inspired look with this army green cropped tee, denim cut off shorts and biker boots with a black Givenchy purse slung across her arm. She showed a lot of skin, but she made it work without looking too risque’. A cool and laid back summer look for CiCi. Hot!
Next up is Kim Kardashian, who was all smiles at the launch of her perfume at Macy’s Aventura…
The reality starlet donned a colorfully printed Rachel Roy dress, belted at the waist and accented by Christian Louboutin Daffodil platform pumps. Despite the conservative appeal of her outfit, Kim still managed to evoke some sass with the length of the dress hitting right above the knee. The colors and fit complimented her skin tone and figure as well. Hot!
Nicole Richie made her way to Nordstrom on Fashion Island to promote her new collections of Winter Kate and House of Harlow 1960…
Sporting a wide brimmed hat, printed blouse, denim cut off shorts, black tights and black booties, the mini mogul didn’t stray from her boho chic predilection. I love how she paired the black tights with the cut offs to dress the look up a bit more without overdoing it. Hot!
Lupe Fiasco hit up KIIS FM’s Wango Tango concert this weekend…
He rocked all black from head to toe and showed us that rappers can be stylish as well. Despite the lack of color, I liked that there was definitely some thought put into the outfit, especially because of the leather jacket and boots. Fly!
Actress Katerina Graham was also in attendance at the concert…
The actress played with her ponytail on the red carpet as she struck a pose. One thing she didn’t strike was a high note with this ensemble. Usually a hit or miss with me, her look here resonated with the latter as there isn’t a focal point with her outfit. Her makeup was too severe for an already severe ensemble: strapped bustier, black shorts, nylon stockings and laced up ankle boots. Hmm…more ComicCon than concert in my opinion.
Melanie Fiona attended The Reveal of the What Is Sexy List hosted by Victoria’s Secret
She wore a sequined white and black dress with platform YSL Tribtoo pumps. Though some may say Melanie skews towards boring, I personally love this look! It’s simple, chic, and hot!
Kelis attended a Uganda Project Fund Raiser Presented By Make Believe in West Hollywood:
She wore a boyish top buttoned to the hilt with leather cigarette pants and peep toe pink suede heels. Perhaps certain elements could work separately, but together? Hmm…not sure why she chose this particular combination, especially given her chic predilections. Better luck next time, Kelis!
And last, but not least is Glee star Naya Rivera, who played host at the 22nd Annual GLAAD Media Awards…
Another who is usually hit or miss for me surely made me bite my words in the this metallic Camilla & Marc number. The length was a bit conservative, in my opinion for someone her age, but she made it work and it showed how versatile she can be sartorially. Gray suede YSL Trib Too’s completed her simple, yet chic look. Hot!
What say you?

I’m gonna have to disagree and give it to Kelis. She looks cute and laid back, and that’s hard to do in leather pants. I love the pink peep toes.
May 16, 2011 1:11 pm
I disagree with you on Kelis.The pink softens up the boys wear vibe for me and I like it.
Ciara in our fav weekend uniform! #dukes!

I like Kelis and Nicole. Kim looks the same as always, playing up her curves as always just too safe.
May 16, 2011 1:21 pm
I like Kim’s outfit……love, love, love the shoes! I like Nicole’s outfit……I couldn’t wear all the pieces together, but it looks great on her and fits her personality. I like Melanie’s look. Naya’s look is too old looking for her, maybe if the hem skimmed the knee it would look more youthful, love the shoes though. Kelis’ look I flat out hate.
May 16, 2011 1:27 pm
i loove melanie fiona & kelis’ look.. kim’s appearance in general is starting to get on my nerves now she needs to stay out of the cameras for a minute.
May 16, 2011 1:36 pm
Yay! I like what Kelis has on. Naya looks good too.
May 16, 2011 1:39 pm
I lik Naya! I don’t watch “Glee” but she’s cute;) I agree w/the length adding yrs thou..
I like Kelis shoes..
I think Lupe and Nicole look the best!!
May 16, 2011 1:45 pm
Katerina looks like a pussycat doll reject. I am not feeling her look at all.
May 16, 2011 1:53 pm
Something about the fit of Kim K’s dress is throwing me off. Maybe its the belt cutting her in half, but she looks blimpish =/
Nicole Ritchie is absolutely adorable I always love her style!
Katherina Graham is new on the scene so she gets a few more months
to get it together, but she can’t let this mess happen again!
Melonie Fiona still looks like an Express Mannequin
Naya’s dress is too cute. I could use that for an upcoming wedding!
May 16, 2011 1:57 pm
OMG I just love Nicole outfit, a must on my outfit list. Lupe looks cool as always, and he did a great performance at the New Orleans JazzFest. What is Katerina Graham wearing, I’m lost. I like Kelis outfit, I wish should would have worn red shoes but she looks nice considering. And the button down from Urbanoutfitters looks really good. Kim does not looks HOT!! in that photo she looks inflated.
May 16, 2011 2:10 pm
Katerina’s face is lighter than her body…too much poweder..

May 16, 2011 2:58 pm
It seems like Ciara always has on different variations of the same outfit. *yawn*
May 16, 2011 3:41 pm
I like Kelis look along with Kim’s… overall Im going with Kim. Kat’s look doesnt look completely
May 16, 2011 3:45 pm
Nicole and Naya look lovely!
May 16, 2011 3:46 pm
I love Ciara’s dressed down look. Hell if I had her legs I’d stay in cut off too! My favorite look has to go to Nicole she looks boho chic and I will always ride for Kelis! Her side swoop is giving me Bossy 2006.
May 16, 2011 4:12 pm
kelis looks hot in her special way…only she can pull that off
May 16, 2011 5:59 pm
Nicole, Kelis(call it crazy but it works for her) and Naya got the hot for me, everybody else hmmmm
May 16, 2011 7:54 pm
ciara looks cute and casual. hell i might steal that outfit for a hot day (if they ever come to ny). i love nicole richie’s outfit, it fits her boho aesthetic so well. lupe looks cute. i like kelis’s outfit. for once, i like melanie fiona’s look but i wish she had some blotting papers for her face. i think naya rivera looks gorgeous in her dress.
kim’s dress doesn’t look right on her for some reason and the belt makes it worse. katerina graham’s outfit looks ridiculous to me.
May 16, 2011 11:06 pm
I love Kelis’s look, especially her top. Can you tell me where I can find it Claire? and im not sur how I feel about Kim, I mean I like the dress, but I think it would be more flattering on someone with smaller boobs.

Love Kelis Shoes!
May 17, 2011 5:22 pm
Kelis did that!
May 19, 2011 1:28 pm
Kelis look is fly. I love her hair and the sheer top matched with the cropped cigarette pants.
