Happy Friday!
The temps are dropping down here in Houston, but I’m so excited because I can finally pull out my fall and winter essentials. I’ve been so inspired by this season’s trends that it makes it hard to resist layering up for the cooler months. Yet, although sweater weather is in full effect, fashion’s hottest fashionistas continue to set our hearts ablaze with their flawless designer ensembles.
Let’s jump into a few of this week’s best dressed divas!
1) LaLa Anthony in Shady ZeinEldine
LaLa Anthony radiated undeniable poise and glamour at the Alvin Ailey Dance Company Opening Gala earlier this week as she donned a sleek low ponytail, a memorable semi-sheer high slit gown by Lebanese designer Shady ZeinEldine and Saint Laurent ankle strap pumps. The stunning piece showcases an ample amount of leg and features a clean silhouette. But, as we all know, LaLa never skimps in the style department. Slay on, hun!
2) Lady Gaga in Saint Laurent
Of course, what Look of the Week post would be complete without an appearance by fashion innovator Lady Gaga? While out and about at the Grand Palais in Paris, the superstar uplifted a gargantuan pair of platform booties, oversized tinted sunnies and a vibrant Saint Laurent Fall 2016 royal blue fur coat. Gaga is absolutely fearless when it comes to rocking more daring designs and she does it oh-so-effortlessly. Take notes, everyone!
3) Solange Knowles in Paula Knorr
Style extraordinaire and Cranes in the Sky songstress Solange Knowles also made a riveting appearance at the Alvin Ailey Dance Company Opening Gala in a cream velvet ruffle midi dress from Paula Knorr’s Spring 2017 collection. Solo accented her dreamy ‘fit with voluminous curls, pointed silver heels and playful matching eye-makeup. Cute!
4) Zendaya Coleman in Michael Kors
Fashion rule number one: Never underestimate the power of a little black dress. Style enthusiasts everywhere live by this cardinal sartorial commandment but Zendaya Coleman proved how chic an ebony-hued piece can truly be. The 20-year-old it-girl graced the 30th Annual Footwear News Achievement Awards red carpet in a gorgeous Michael Kors Spring 2017 ruffle hem dress. Zendaya also wore a wavy, vintage-inspired ‘do and classic black suede pumps. Talk about elegance!
5) Naomie Harris in Monse
Actress Naomie Harris stole the show at the 2016 Gotham Independent Film Awards clad in a gold strapless sequin tunic by Monse, tailored black trousers and black pumps. While we’ve grown to love this style maven’s minimalist style aesthetic, it’s refreshing to see her in an ensemble that’s a bit more bold and eclectic. Sidenote: If you’re currently on the hunt for a New Year’s frock that won’t cost a ton of money, take a cue from Naomie with this dazzling look. I loved every moment of this slayage!
