She finished with a velvet bowtie and added a pop of color with a red lip:

Werq, Keyshia!
Her $395 crepe blazer has a contrast collar:

Her $445 skirt has contrast side leather panels:

Her swirl pumps (which we wrote about here) are from Kirkwood’s Pre Spring 2013 collection, and feature a platform:

I like! Do you?

Sigh…..I didnt like this look at all on Keyshia. The jacket is clearly too long for her in the sleeves. I think a nice pair of tailord pants and a more tailored jacket would have suited Keyshia a lot better. O. Swank has been hit and miss with Keyshia Cole’s looks. This outfit is just odd looking to me. None the less, carry on….

Her makeup is tooooooo heavy for this look. It makes her look old and hard, there’s nothing soft about it.
December 3, 2012 9:39 am
Wasn’t completely in love with this look or the makeup for Ms. Cole
December 3, 2012 9:39 am
I don’t. Sorry. There’s just something somewhere that doesn’t add up
December 3, 2012 9:40 am
Not feeling it
December 3, 2012 9:46 am
I think the fit is off on this outfit although the individual pieces are nice. The sleeves and the jacket overall appear to be too long for her.
December 3, 2012 9:47 am
So cute! A little too much makeup, but the look is hot
December 3, 2012 10:01 am
Her hair looks gray in the close up pic and the make up looks too light, she looks washed out
December 3, 2012 10:07 am
Hmmmmmmm
December 3, 2012 10:10 am
I really like this outfit on Keyshia…so unexpected.
December 3, 2012 10:26 am
What? I think her makeup is great. That lip is so shiny and pretty. It brightens up her whole face. The outfit…. meh.
December 3, 2012 10:35 am
TERRIBLE
December 3, 2012 10:37 am
This is bad from head to toe. The slick backed washed out hair, Christmas make up, yellow diamond studs, gaudy rings, bow-tie, over-sized blazer, ill-fitting skirt…I digress.
December 3, 2012 10:42 am
I love Keyshia but her styling for this entire “era” has been very hit or miss with more misses. She is such a pretty woman but that hair color is awful and washes her out (but the red lip looks great).
December 3, 2012 11:00 am
this is bad..
the entire outfit except the shoes look like they’re from forever 21. poor fit!
December 3, 2012 11:18 am
fit is key
December 3, 2012 11:22 am
She look albino..

I think in an effort to stand out, celebrities go to the “outer limits” when they try to be different. I think it’s Still ok to keep it simple sometimes. Simplicity will always have a place in fashion.
This look would have been nice if the jacket had been tailored to fit her small frame and the skirt had been a solid color. I think the one stand out item could have been the shoes…alone. Let them be the focal point. Also, I think a darker hair color would have really made the look classic and chic. The light blonde is too much against the white color of the suit. The haircut itself is very nice though.
Even with these two very simple colors, her look has too many elements working against each other, rather than blending cohesively together.

The shoes could have potential, but KC didn’t convince me!
December 3, 2012 11:34 am
Keyshia Cole looks, um, white?
December 3, 2012 11:42 am
Not feeling this look…Hmm!
December 3, 2012 11:53 am
Not feeling this look together …smh why so matchy matchy..the fit of the garments are way off as well!!! each item separately would have been dope. Why not a neon blazer with that skirt ?

I wanted to like it, but I don’t. Keyshia is petite, the porportions of this outfit are too much for her small frame. The jacket is too long and so is the skirt. The shoes are hot though!
December 3, 2012 12:07 pm
Uh oh Miss Olori Swank didn’t quite hit the mark with this look.
December 3, 2012 12:23 pm
Shoes A+
I want to like the outfit but its too messy. Everything appears so big on here. Keyshia is petite certain looks are just not for her !
Only thing I like about her make-up is the red lips
December 3, 2012 1:54 pm
Should have been tailored to her exact measurements. I HATE when the jacket sleeves fall too low on the arms…
December 3, 2012 2:18 pm
The jacket is a FAIL with the shirt/long skirt. The fit is horrible too…not feeling this look at all!
December 3, 2012 3:11 pm
I hate every thing !!
December 3, 2012 3:19 pm
I LOVED it!
December 3, 2012 3:40 pm
I think tailored black slacks would have been a better option, the skirt looks too oversized.
December 3, 2012 6:37 pm
He’ll naw!!! The outfit is ill fitting. White slacks would have nailed it!! Shoes are killer tho!
December 3, 2012 11:32 pm
The fit is off and the proportion of the jacket with the skirt seems off as well. A for effort, though
December 4, 2012 3:25 am
Notin but love for keyshia cole :)
December 5, 2012 2:01 am
NO!!
December 5, 2012 10:10 pm
Keyshia needs to go back to her short black hair days..not feeling it.
