Beyoncé was snapped today while in New York City skulking the concrete jungle in a pair of Alaïa burgundy fringe suede sandals.  Good Morning America newscaster Robin Roberts wore the same pair during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! back in November 2014.

Queen Bey wore hers with a beautifully printed kimono and rainbow pencil skirt, both by Senegalese designer Selly Raby Kane.  She also accessorized her look with a $65 pair of Perverse ‘Madness’ sunglasses and her Burberry Leather Lead Detail Handbag.

Robin Roberts paired her sandals with a Dawn Levy green moto jacket and a Givenchy Abstract Print Midi Dress.

Perfect for showing off those toned gams, these Alaïa sandals feature a fringed ankle strap and a 4.5 inch heel.  The suede gives this shoe an even more luxurious aesthetic, adding more the length to the wearer with its open toe.

 This is going to be a tough one! Beyoncé’s skirt and lip color are a great match for the sandals.  But Robin thought of delightfully contrasting her sandals with her green leather jacket and earth toned frock.  Both looked great to me!

What say you?

Hola, fam!
I just came back from a refreshing trip to Cuba! I received a tip from a facialist to switch to a serum vs. a cream moisturizer for the summer months. So when Urban Skin RX sent over a range of products, I had to give their Brightening Serum a try.

I’ll be honest: I normally don’t really mess around with my skincare routine! Once you hit your stride, why switch it up? But after my facial, I wanted to try something lightweight for the summer, and used this brightening product while on vacay.

Most days, I went without makeup, but this serum kept my skin popping with 15% Ascorbic acid, Kojic acid, and Salicylic acid.

I normally break out when I travel, but not one pimple rose to the surface. I just popped on shades & lipstick, and enjoyed the sun and sounds of Cuba.

If you want to give a try for yourself, purchase for $69 here.
What do you think? Do you use serums in the summer?

She’s still out here! Queen Rih Rih is back at it again, releasing a fourth color way of her popular FENTY trainer. The grey color way will hit stores and online tomorrow, Wednesday, June 15th.

Back in February, Rihanna released the trainer for the first time in three colors: red, white and black. The men’s styles sold out immediately on line and though the women’s took longer, they were all gone within a few days. Now, they are back.

This new color of the style will retail for $180 and be sold on PUMA.com as well as on sites like STYLEBOP.COM. Style bop will begin their sale at 3:00AM so expect a digital version of Hunger Games and a lot of butthurt tweets around that time. There has been no announcement as to when Puma will post the styles to their site.

Will you be waking up early in hopes of snagging a pair?

I believe 2016 is the year of Jourdan Dunn.The model has gone from just the runway to campaigns to now heading campaigns of her own! Recently she’s been drafted as the leading lady in the #ActuallySheCan campaign, a campaign focused on female empowerment and fueled by women’s healthcare company Allergan in Dublin.Teaming up with Le Motto on a limited edition collection of tank tops stamped with the brand’s uplifting words, #ActuallySheCan is a movement all within itself. “I love the message about empowering women to achieve their goals big or small,” says Dunn. “It’s all about inspiring women, supporting each other and I’m all for that.”

Aside from a fabulous modeling career that has expanded into the realms of film production, making history in the fashion industry and even launching her own clothing line, who better than Jourdan Dunn to be front and center of a campaign that exudes positivity and the sense that women can achieve anything they set their minds to?

To check out the tanktops, you can head over to their site, LeMotto.com/ActuallySheCan and read up on the campaign over at ActuallySheCan.com.

So what do you think of Jourdan Dunn’s latest campaign?

Laura Govan was spotted out and about rocking a $145 Jessica Rich Collection Cali black bandage dress:

The dress features one sleeving, body cut outs throughout the piece, a high thigh-slit and a choker-like style around the neck. This is definitely not for the faint at heart!

I personally am not a fan of that much skin showing, but hey if you got it, flaunt it! Laura looks amazing, and if you are ready to rock it this summer, you can purchase the dress here.

What do you think? Is the dress worth the price point?

 

Nicole Scherzinger is back on the X-Factor train, with this season’s auditions kicking off in Leiceister. The former PussyCat Doll and returning co-judge looked sleek in a Smythe Spring Red Pantsuit and $675 Christian Louboutin ‘So Kate’ Nude Pumps.

 Nicole’s blazer features a long shawl lapel with pockets at the waist and on the left side of the chest.  The trousers fit closely to the body and begin to flare at the knee, giving a subtle break with this slim-fit silhouette. She added some height to her outfit with a pair of Christian Louboutin ‘So Kate’ pumps. These pointed-toe patent leather pumps have a 4.75 inch heel and a smooth leather lining.  And the signature red soles match her polished suit.I must say, Smythe suits seem to be very carefully constructed.  This option fits Nicole perfectly.  But the silver leather top under her suit?  Hmm… thinking outside the box didn’t seem to be executed that well here.   It doesn’t flow well.  A white top would’ve sufficed.  And her nude pumps, though they add height, weren’t the right option for this particular look.  I will say, though, her slicked back hair and makeup… superb!

What do you think?  Do you like Nicole’s look, or are you going to wait to see what else she has in store in terms of X-Factor fashion this season?

Paula Patton was snapped at the 15th Annual Chrysalis Butterfly Ball showcasing her svelte physique in a $2,395 Alexander McQueen Black Jacquard Short Tier Dress:

This black Alexander McQueen jacquard short tier dress is a seductive piece from the label’s Resort 2016 collection, which displayed a mix of both old and new. This intricate silk-blend dress features thin black straps, a fitted bodice complete with boning, built in bra construction, organza layering throughout the skirt and a back zip fastening. Green and pale purple embroidery has been worked into the dress which grows in size towards the hem.

 A fitting choice for a charitable occasion, the dainty embroidery and slightly modest length offset this black frock.  But at $2,395 is it worth the splurge?  Well, Paula seems to think so. Should your wallets agree as well, you can shop the dress here.

What do you think?  Is Paula’s look worth the pretty penny?
