Real Style: BET Chicago

Hey!
So unfortunately a patched up foot and crutches don’t allow me much time to hit the streets for Real Style. Thankfully, you fabulous readers have been sending me submissions. Yippee!
Aja from Illinois submitted a photo of ‘Chicago Office Fashion‘:

*The Academy Awards were last night, and to be honest, the red carpet was a huge snooze fest color wise. The only two snaps I could give were to Jennifer Hudson….
….whose white wonder was a vast improvement over last year’s ‘bolero’ combo that Andre Leon fashioned for her.
I’m very proud of Jennifer Hudson’s unwavering embrace of all white….

…it’s a hard color to pull off (think marshmallow effect), but she does so with pinache.
*The guys were also very dapper…

…can I point out how much I love Spike Lee? He looks thoroughly bored and above it all…but didn’t forget to rock his Obama pin. Message!
