Lovely ladies Rihanna and Fefe Dobson seem to both have a predilection for CFDA award nominee Alexander Wang’s shoes:
They were recently spotted rocking different versions of his hot $675 Freja Lace Zipped Booties. While Rihanna opted to wear an all black pair with short shorts and a gray jersey top, Fefe wore a striped pair with sheer cut out leggings and a rocker blazer. Both ladies are werqing it, but who wore Wang better?
Hey Guys!
It’s a busy time, so I decided to serve Mail Bombs up a little early. Let’s go!
Both Cheryl and Meeka loved Shaunie O’Neal’s look in a recent Essence issue.
Cheryl says, “Please tell me who is the designer of Shaunie O’Neal’s dress and shoes in this pic taken for Essence Magazine? I love them both and HAVE to know!”
It looks like Shaunie is wearing a $300 Mason by Michelle Mason dress. I wasn’t 100% on the shoes, but found a pair of LAMB stunners that came close:
*Update: reader Cheryl found out that the shoes are by a brand called Sacco. They’re available at Dulce Boutique in Florida (305) 461-9880.
Natalie says, “Totally loving the sunglasses and shoes Amber Rose is wearing in this picture.”
“… Where can I get them?”
Amber is wearing a $299 pair of Balenciaga gradient shades and Givenchy Bondage Sandals. Get the Balenciaga’s here. The Givenchy sandals seem to be sold out at Bergdorf, but you can get a similar look with these.
Julie loved Rihanna’s red and white striped top:
She says, “Where can I get it?”
According to Upscale Hype, Rihanna is wearing an Alexander Wang Top, J Brand pants, and Christian Louboutin Pigalle Pumps. Get the whole look here:
Lastly, in a wardrobe query, Britney says, “I have an all-white party coming up in the next two months. I’m looking for skirts, shirts, dresses, shorts…something under $50. Help!”
Get a cute all white look with any of these budget picks:
That does it for now!
I’ll update more throughout the day.
If not, have amazing, sun kissed weekends!
Smootches!
Amber Rose’s chic factor is certainly on the rise, witnessed by her choice of a Katy Rodriguez’s $670 Ruffle Leather Skirt seen on princess Rih Rih in August:
But while Rihanna chose to wear hers with a flattering black bustier, Amber went the long sleeved route in a sheer shirt and long necklace.
Both ladies are positively love, but who wore it better?
Rihanna arrived at the Echo Awards in Berlin in a strong shoulder green lycra jumpsuit with a plunging neckline and dramatic sleeves:
She accessorized her lean green piece with tall nude Christian Louboutin heels:
Rih Rih consistently wows with her choices, and can pull a couture wedding gown off the runway and rock it flawlessly to any awards show. This option certainly shows off her best assets, but hmm, between the high shoulders and bright color, she almost looks like an animé character.
What do you think?
So after I gushed over Rihanna’s fun video for her song Rude Boy, commenters started to ‘Go Hard’ on the Beijan princess, saying she had in fact ripped her technicolor, playful concept off of M.I.A’s 2005 video for Galang:
Reader Will said, “I liked this video when MIA came out with it a couple years ago. it was called Galang back then.”
I must admit, the colors and style are very similar, but Rihanna’s version is decidedly steamier. Honestly, there isn’t anything ‘new’ under the sun, and artists are constantly inspired by other artists.
But what do you think? Rip off or Inspiration?
Rihanna, Rude Boy
M.I.A, Galang
So I was getting down on a yummy cheeseburger at my local diner when Rihanna’s video for Rude Boy came on TV. Though the burger was bangin, I had to put it down for a second to take in the fun visuals:
I loved the neon colors, Rihanna’s sexy swagger, and the song! Finally Rihanna has a post-Umbrella hit that matches her outfits in hotness.
I also appreciated the viddy’s Caribbean feel. Rihanna started with ‘Pon de Replay, then went to Disturbia, and now she’s somewhere in between. I love it.
As soon as I got home I downloaded Rude Boy from Itunes. It’s currently on permapeat (that’s how I gets down).
What do you think of the video. Do you love?
