It’s time to get into another edition of our lovely Look of the Week feature! With my evening coming to a screeching halt, I’m going to make this a quick post. Due to my lack of time management skills (and, the fact that I’m starving), I’m literally drafting this post on the remaining 3% of life that I left from my job – so, please, bear with me ya’ll!
Let’s get to it!
1) Lupita Nyong’o in Maki Oh
Lupita Nyong’o and David Oyelowo attended the historic opening of the National Museum of African-American History and Culture in Washington, D.C. while looking spewing all types of sartorial perfection. While the dapper actor chose to don an expertly-tailored forest green suit, Queen of Katwe‘s own leading lady slayed in a multicolored geometric print midi dress by Maki Oh. She accessorized with electric blue suede pumps and a matching head wrap. Yes, Queen!
2) Rihanna in Fenty x PUMA
Rihanna granted life to each one of her 44.4 million Instagram followers as she debuted her highly-anticipated Spring 2017 Fenty x PUMA collection at Paris Fashion Week! As her Marie Antoinette-inspired designs waltzed down the elegant runway, the songstress held her audience captive as she uplifted her own bubble gum pink eyelet-drenched set that boasts a dramatic silhouette, drawstring detailing and a relaxed fit. To see more of her flawless line, check out our show review here!
3) Jasmine Sanders in Berta
Model Jasmine Sanders was certain that all eyes were glued to her as she attended amfAR Milano 2016 in a Berta sequin-embellished wrap dress from the brand’s Fall 2016 presentation. The gorgeous starlet let her statement-making frock do all the talking as she slipped into a pair of nude patent leather sandals accentuated by icy diamond accents. I’m totally in love with look! Although we’ve seen plenty of the “plunging” necklines on and off the red carpet, I think she made it look effortlessly classy. Super cute!
4) Eniko Hart in Jessica Rich Collection
Newlywed Eniko Hart struck a quick pose for the ‘Gram as she showcased her bodacious bod in a curve-hugging, semi-sheer jumpsuit from Jessica Rich Collection. The sultry number also features a striped mesh top, bandage pants and long sleeves. Available for about $169, it is a splurge but, trust me, it’s worth it! Per usual, the bombshell kept her accessories to a minimum as she completed her look with black leather ankle strap sandals and an easy, breezy updo.
5) Kim and Kourtney Kardashian in Balmain
If you’ve been living under a rock for the past few days, you probably weren’t aware of the epic Balmain Spring 2017 runway show that took place during Paris Fashion Week. And, as Tinseltown’s finest flocked to the City of Love to partake in the stylish festivities, the Kardashian clan was also on the scene! But, it was Kim and Kourtney who almost broke the internet with their dual selfie that featured 70’s era, gilded pieces from the French label. The reality stars were bronzed to perfection as they proved why that Kardashian reign just won’t let up. It’s simple: they slay. That is all. Love it!
6) Halle Berry in David Koma
Halle Berry graced the cameras at Revlon’s Annual Philanthropic Luncheon while flaunting her sculpted frame in a fitted David Koma bodycon wonder. The 50-year-old actress served up edgy vibes as she played up her two-toned dress with strappy black heels and a playful bun. I don’t know about ya’ll, but Ms. Berry is #goals! I can only pray that I’ll be as poised and beautiful as she is when I grow up. Now, if only she can point me in the direction of the Fountain of Youth…
7) Fantasia in NuOfficial
Our girl Fantasia went back to black as she attended a celebratory event for the opening of the National Museum of African-American History and Culture in a jaw-dropping NuOfficial black and white ombre cape gown. With a sleek short ‘do and a dark berry lip on deck, ‘Tasia killed! Honestly, I’ve been stalking her Instagram for the past few months and I don’t think she’s getting enough credit. She’s consistently slaying in the style department and the world should take note; hence, why I suggested her as a nominee for the Look of the Week. Werk!
Quite the list, no?
What do you think of the contenders? Who slayed? And, who fell flat?
