Look of the Week featuring Beyonce, Lindsay Lohan, LaLa Anthony And More!

Happy Friday fam!

I’ve been glued to my laptop since I woke up, lol!

I have a little bit of a “relaxed” day planned so I figured some writing would be the best way to make me feel somewhat productive, lol. Anywho, this week was filled with some memorable events and the slayage was beyond real. From the 7th Annual amfAR Inspiration Gala to the highly-anticipated 2016 CFDA Awards, there were plenty of potential fashion contenders to choose from.

So, join me as we review some of Fashion Bomb Daily’s favorite celebrity ‘fits!

1) Beyonce in Givenchy

Beyonce-Givenchy-2

Queen Bey had a legendary week, didn’t she? As the recipient of the 2016 Fashion Icon Award, the superstar gave one of the most touching speeches while paying mad respect to her both her grandmother and mother. For the occasion, Beyonce slayed (allll daayy) in a custom embellished Givenchy striped suit, a sheer ruffled lace blouse, her signature ultra wide-brimmed hat and peep-toe platforms. So glam!

2) Karrueche Tran in Gucci

Karrueche Tran shut down the amfAR Inspiration Gala red carpet while donning a silky vintage Gucci gown and a pair of Versace ‘Medusa’ ankle strap sandals. The fashionista’s sultry frock also boasts a draped effect, a plunging neckline and a sky-high slit. She accented her look with bomb gold accessories and a slicked back hair. Hot!

3) Alesha Dixon in Alesha Dixon x Little Black Dress

Glamour-Women-of-the-Year-Awards-2016-alesha-dixon-little-black-dress

Last week, British star Alesha Dixon made an appearance in our Look of the Week feature in a design from her recent collaboration with the brand Little Black Dress. And, she’s back this week with another one! The television personality/singer was seen at the 2016 Glamour Women of the Year Awards while wearing her own Mini A-line LBD, an edgy choker and simple metallic sandals. Cute!

4) LaLa Anthony in Fendi

LaLa-Anthony-Fendi-1

The 2016 CFDA Awards were chock full of sartorial surprises! As the stars flaunted some of the most influential designers, they proved that the power of style stems from much more than the colors, textures and cuts. With that, LaLa Anthony was on hand looking absolutely ravishing in a printed flowy number number by Fendi. The television personality also chose a metallic belt and Gianvito Rossi leather sandals as the finishing touches. Yes ma’am!

5) Lindsay Lohan in Elisabetta Franchi

Lindsay-Lohan-Elisabetta-Franchi-1

Whelp! It looks like Lindsay Lohan has re-emerged! The stunning actress was spotted out and about with gal pal Kourtney Kardashian in a red and blue Elisabetta Franchi Fall 2016 Fringe Mini Dress and metallic heels. If you’re a lover of fringe (like me), you already know that the movement is insane! So, I can only imagine how gorgeous this piece was in person. I’m here for it!

6) Christina Milian in Rhea Costa

Christina-Milian-Deadline-Event-Rhea-Costa-black-crepe-one-shoulder-gown

LBDs will never go out of style – no matter what the ‘hottest trends’ are. And, Christina Milian is walking proof! The singer/actress showcased the overall elegance and sophistication that only a black dress can display while rocking a one-shoulder Rhea Costa gown at a recent Deadline event. I love how she took the ensemble up a few notches with a fiery red lip! She looks amazing!

7) Mel B in Laquan Smith

Mel-B-Jimmy-Fallon-Laquan-Smith-Fall-2016-navy-blue-sheer-midi-dress

The lovely Mel B hit up The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon as she showcased her enviable bod in a Laquan Smith Fall 2016 Blue Sheer Midi Dress. The long-sleeved wonder uplifts silver undertones, a textured pattern and a rounded neckline. Although the piece itself is completely transparent, Mel layered her version over a nude bodysuit. Genius styling, no?

Thoughts on the contenders?

amfAR-Inspiration-Gala-2016-Selita-Ebanks-1

Model Selita Ebanks slipped into a delicate white ruffled Francesco Scognamiglio gown and hard-to-miss-earrings. Go girl!

As ya’ll known, I’m a sucker for anything involving loads of color, sequins and a flawless fit. So, Hawa Diawara slayed my entire life when I spotted her on the red carpet! The Malian stunner was a total vision in a royal blue showstopper that featured a geometric  front cut out and structured shoulders. Werk!

amfAR-Inspiration-Gala-2016-Maya-Jones-1

Our next style maven chose to shine bright for the occasion! The lovely Maya Jones was a breath of fresh air as she flaunted a glorious Zac Posen strapless cocktail dress and shimmery silver sandals.
