Happy Monday, FB’ers!
Adriana here, still blinded from all the stars at last night’s Black Girls Rock! Awards at Lincoln Center in the NYC. First, I had to make sure the outfit was right, knowing I was about to be around some fierce fashion:
Then it was off to the red carpet!
The VIP Lounge was next, where I caught up with some of our favorite stylistas:I asked BGR Award-winner Estelle which UK designer should we all be looking out for and immediately got back, “Jean Pierre Braganza!” She was super-nice and down-to-earth!Fashion Bomb friend Michaela Angela Davis sent tons of love to Claire in Paris, while Veronica Webb dished about her new TV show, “Living Style,” on BBC World. “It’s a bit like Elsa Klensch’s ‘Style’ and seen in over 200 countries.” “Style” is one of my all-time faves–sweet!Malinda Williams (here with friend and fellow actress Vanessa Williams) and I got in some girl-talk about designers. “Rebecca Taylor, Nanette Lepore, and the dresses in the Max Azria high-end line are some of my favorites. I also love big rings, accessories, and pantyhose!”
I’m pretty rocked myself after last night but it was completely worth it. Black Girls Rock isn’t all parties and stars, though: they do wonderful work empowering young women. To find out more, visit Black Girls Rock Inc.
Thanks to my girl Abby Brew for the photographer look!
