    Style Inspiration: What to Wear to a Hip Hop Concert

    by Claire

    Hey!
    So aside from getting wardrobe requests for what to wear to a birthday party or what to wear to a wedding, we get the most mail seeking advice on What to Wear to a Hip Hop Concert!

    Whether our Bombshells are going to see Drake or Wale, curious divas have been flooding our inbox for tips on how to look fly for a concert.
    Before focusing on What to Wear, it’s important to note What not to Wear:
    1. Don’t wear uncomfortable shoes. You will most likely either be standing or dancing. You don’t want sore feet at the end of the night!

    2.Avoid anything without pockets. Pockets are useful for holding miscellaneous items like your ticket or lipgloss (duh!).

    3. Steer away from open toed shoes. If things get rowdy, you’ll want to protect your toes.

    4. Don’t wear too warm clothes inside or too little clothes outside. Make sure to layer so you’re prepared for anything! A chunky wool sweater inside a steamy auditorium=nightmare.

    5. Don’t wear a huge hat. That is unless you want the people sitting behind to hate you.
    (An example of how wearing a big hat at any public event can be slightly annoying):

    Now on to What to Wear.

    For an indoor concert:

    There are no weather concerns inside, so don’t be afraid to dress up! Opt for jeans with a sexy top, polished off with an eye catching blazer (depending on the weather) or a vest. Jazz everything up with fun flats or flat boots, and store everything in a compact and easy cross body bag. Have fun with accessories and makeup:

    For an outdoor concert:

    Outdoor concerts are typically more casual affairs–and you have to deal with the elements! Focus on layering and comfort here. Wear your favorite tank, but definitely pack a hoodie or a jacket for nighttime chills. I’d go for shorts in the summer and jeans in the fall, again with flat shoes (or even sneakers!) and a cross body bag.

    Hopefully this takes care of all those concert wardrobe queries that have been piling up:)

    And for more What to Wear options, check out our section, or stay tuned for updates!

    5 Tips to Help Transition Your Wardrobe from Summer to Fall

    by Claire

    Hey Guys!

    Though it’s still very much summer here in Georgia, it’s already getting pretty nippy in other parts of the country (and the world)!

    If you don’t want to completely ditch your summer wares, we found FIVE ways you can get more mileage by mixing summery separates with cold weather accents!


    Check it:
    1.  Keep your mini, add a boot:

    Just because the weather’s colder doesn’t mean you have to fold up your mini skirts and dresses. Take a cue from the ever stylish Kim Kardashian and Rihanna and wear an over-the-knee boot with your favorite thigh skimmer.

    2. Layer your tanks and tees under sweaters and jackets:

    There’s nothing more alluring than a pop of color or fun t-shirt under a classic blazer! Let your favorite summer tops go the distance by wearing them under wrap cardigans, soft wool knits or tailored jackets.

    3. Pop on pumps or boots with your favorite capris:

    I have very…generous calves, so any help I can get stuffing my pants into knee high boots the better! Capris are the perfect length for close fit knee highs.  And if it’s still pretty hot where you are, you can work a pump with a capri to elegant effect.

    4. Fall in love with leather:


    Leather jackets, shorts, and skirts are great transitional pieces. Pop a leather jacket over a t-shirt, or wear leather shorts with your favorite tank. You’ll look edgy and fall ready.

    5. Be courageus! Consider socks with sandals or stockings with shorts:

    Don’t want to pack away your sandals or shorts?

    Fall runways were aflame with the socks and sandals look and Parisian girls adore the stockings with shorts look. They’re not necessarily ‘trendy,’ but you can work it.

    Take a chance!

    And all you leggings lovers can rejoice! Those work all year round.

    Do you guys have anything to add?

    Style Inspiration: Oh you Fancy, Huh?

    by Claire

    “Time heals all, and heels hurt to walk in/ But they go with the clutch that you carry your lip gloss in/And look I really think that nobody does it better/I love the way you put it together/ Oh you fancy huh/ Oh you fancy huh/ Oh you fancy huh/ Oh you fancy huh/ Nail done, hair done, everything did/ Nails done, hair done, everything did.”


    So the only song that’s on permapeat right now for me is “Fancy” by Drake featuring T.I. and Swizz Beatz. I love the melody and the lyrics seemed pegged for those gals who just like to dress up and look fly for the fun of it.
    The items for this Style Inspiration are a bit on the pricey side…perfect for the “fancy” girl:

    If you don’t know the song, listen here and enjoy:


    Stay tuned for more Style Inspirations!

    Style Inspiration: What to Wear to a Wiz Khalifa Concert

    by Claire

    Winter Savanna Love wrote in, saying, “My boyfriend and I are attending a Wiz Khalifa concert in late October. But I have not a clue of what I should wear! Mind you, I live in Phoenix where it gets HOT!”
    Excuse my ignorance, but I had no clue who Wiz Khalifa was! But with a quick Google search, I found him and came up with this cute yet simple look:


    Wiz seems to be a laid back dude, so mimic his style with a simple t-shirt and shorts punched up with Khalifa inspired readers, a P necklace, and a blue Nooka watch. Keep it comfy in sneakers and stash your what nots in a bookbag:

    More Forever 21…

    And if I’m completely off, we have a host of dressier options in our Concert section.
    Have fun!
    And everyone else, enjoy this Wiz Khalifa viddy:

    Style Inspiration : What to Wear to a College Football Game

    by Claire

    Hey Guys!
    So reader Alexis wrote in, saying, “I am a college student and I need help figuring out what to wear to football games. I reside in Georgia so you know that football is BIG! I want to be stylish but comfortable so that I can enjoy the GAME! Please help! Thanx XOXO!”
    Well, where I went to school, wearing a school t-shirt and jeans was sufficient enough to show team spirit while enjoying the game. But in Georgia, especially UGA, it seems the girls turn it OUT in dresses and cute outfits that pick up on the school’s colors (red, black and white):

    Look cute in shorts and skirts that accent your silhouette while also keeping you cool in the heat.
    If the options above are a tad too dressy, you can go for a little more relaxed with these:

    Whichever you choose, make sure you’re comfortable in flat or wedge shoes. And no matter your school, use this as inspiration–sub in your school colors for your own unique look.

    Have fun!
