Happy Friday!
It’s been one heck of a week, no? We’ve showcased the best bloggers, brands and beauty bombshells straight out the Chi and, as aforementioned, we’re super excited about Cocktails with Claire making its Windy City debut! Hope to see you guys there!
But, before we resort to the epicness of our upcoming soirée, let’s get into the some of our favorite celebrity looks of the week!
Ready?
1) Marjorie Harvey in Elie Saab
Marjorie Harvey has been on fire all Summer Sixteen! The undeniably gorgeous fashionista reminded us of how bomb she really is by taking to Instagram in an Elie Saab Spring 2016 multicolored romper and a matching black/white duster. She cozied up next to hubby Steve Harvey while flaunting loads of leg, playful curls and flawless skin. They’re just so cool, right?
2) Rihanna in Faustine Steinmetz and Balenciaga
Rihanna stepped out in Prague earlier this week while hot on the Anti World Tour trail. While casually taking in the sights around the city, the fashion killer donned a Faustine Steinmetz ribbed, form-fitting dress, a statement-making Balenciaga stole and ice white Vetements sock ankle boots. She topped off her look with Rihanna x Dior sunnies, fiery red nails and gold accessories. When this street style pic hit social media, Rih’s Navy went absolutely crazy! And, it just validates the fact that this chick is the epitome of a style icon.
3) Angela Bassett in Karen Millen
The 2016 Democratic National Convention was held this week in Philadelphia and it was certainly one of the most memorable events I’ve ever witnessed. With keynote speakers including First Lady Michelle Obama, former U.S. President Bill Clinton and the Mothers of the Movement (including Sandra Bland’s mother Geneva Reed-Veal and Trayvon Martin’s mother Sybrina Fulton), I was glued to my television every step of the way. And, the legendary Angela Bassett was also in attendance! The 57-year-old introduced the survivors of the Charleston, South Carolina massacre while serving it up in a blue pencil shift dress by Karen Millen and Sergio Rossi pointed ankle strap pumps. Perfection! Check out Angela’s DNC speech now!
4) Jennifer Lopez in Balmain
Jennifer Lopez recently celebrated her 47th birthday and she’s proved that age ain’t nothing but a number. Over the past week, the superstar posted nothing but consistent outfit slayage for her 49.2 million Instagram followers! In addition to her plunging Zuhair Murad Fall 2016 embellished pant suit, it was her sheer-paneled Balmain jumpsuit that left us gasping for air. Jenny struck a fierce pose as she showcased her curvy frame, impeccable makeup and a chic ponytail. It’s official: My only goal is to be as fly as she is when I get older. Hot!
5) Fantasia in LOTUZ
Fantasia is killing it! The singer/actress made a quick stop to ABC Studios while wearing a Lotuz Jakarta Black Honeycomb Trim Cape and a classic pair of Tom Ford metallic ankle lock sandals. The eye-catching piece boasts pocket detailing, a structured fit and sharp shoulders. I adore how Fantasia styled her version of the cape while pairing it with a gold bar belt and a lux choker. I believe her short ‘do even adds a bit of edginess to this glam look. There’s just so much I love here, it’s hard not to like it. We see Tasia, go girl!
6) Katy Perry in Michael Kors
Last night, Katy Parry was an absolute vision as she hit the stage at the 2016 Democratic National Convention in an embellished striped ensemble by Michael Kors and metallic ankle strap sandals. The singer’s figure-hugging gown feature delicate sheer panels, long sleeves and a rounded neckline. Hands down, this is one of my favorite looks this week! After we posted Katy’s look on Instagram, she received over 5,000 likes from our FBD followers! Missed her amazing speech, see it here!
