We’ve talked about her before, but Ashley Graham is definitely taking over the world, one plus size model at a time.
The beauty has always been proactive in uplifting and empowering of women, but she’s also had an amazing year. She designed a dress collection for Dressbarn, covered Sports Illustrated, Elle.com, been the ‘It’ girl in music videos, and so much more. Her recent project? Launching her new, plus size swimsuit line.
So why is Ashley Graham our Beauty Crush Wednesday? While her aesthetics definitely scream ‘Bombshell’ to us, it is important to continue to spotlight beautiful, intelligent women who stand for an important yet oft overlooked demographic.
Girls of all ages and all sizes can rock their summer bodies in style and comfort with a swimwear line that’s geared toward more than just the size 2 frame. As well, Graham’s constant body expression show us ALL that we can exude confidence and appeal in the clothes that we wear, but it truly starts from within.
The collection, Graham said in an interview with Elle.com , is inspired by James Bond. “I wanted to be James Bond,” she clarifies. “Not one of the girls. They’re always portrayed as the sexy secondary, but why not be the boss? I’m strong, but also sexy.“
Why not be the boss, indeed. We love Ashley Graham and all she stands for and pushes for women of all sizes!
What do you think of her latest swimsuit line? Is Ashley Graham your Beauty Crush?

This week has been full of stylish red carpet events! Our favorite fashionable actresses took to the Gracies last night and their looks did not disappoint.
Here’s what they wore:
Mindy Kaling was a blue dream in a one-shoulder, sculpted Elizabeth Kennedy gown. Hot!
Yara Shahidi kept it simple and chic in a Brooks Brothers LBD—given some pizzazz with curly pigtail buns. What’s not to love?
Lesley Ann Brandt couldn’t be missed in a painterly, watercolor print cutout Gauri & Nainika dress. She’s gorgeous.
Andra Day flexed her signature, retro-inspired style in an olive, long-sleeve crochet dress and patterned head wrap. She’s never looked better!
Actress and dancer Michelle Mitchenor uplifted a silky black tank with a kelly green full skirt. I can’t find a flaw here.
I enjoy seeing Scott Foley in suits both off and onscreen! He chose an expertly-tailored pairing and a beard for the evening.
Shaun Robinson slipped on a yellow strapless Jay Godfrey slit gown. Hot!
Thoughts on the evening’s ensembles?
Beyonce stepped out for a night with hubby Jay-Z in a $3,730 Giamba silk floral maxi dress paired under her favorite $4,990 Saint Laurent biker jacket:
Beyonce has sported her trusty Saint Laurent jacket before (talk about a great return for your money, huh?), that features leather detailing, two zip side pockets and metallic buttoning throughout.
Comprised of 100% silk, her dress features a deep V neck with layered sleeves and a floral applique throughout.
I think Bey looks good, and this is definitely a cool way to mix femininity with biker chic for a summer evening with bae.
If you have King Bey coins, splurge on her dress at Saks and get her jacket at Net-a-Porter.
The new Roots miniseries on the History channel debuts on Monday! The stars were certainly out for its premiere in strapless numbers, relaxed suits, bold prints, and more.

Artist Derica Cole Washington easily had one of the best looks of the week in a floral-embellished 5:31 JEROME dress. Hot!
It was all about prints for Erica Tazel in a one-shoulder red and black patterned Chiara Boni number. This was fab.
T.I. kept it casual, but polished in a black and navy ensemble, anchored by Jordans.
Anna Paquin shimmered and sparkled in a sequin-encrusted Escada gown with an illusion neckline and belt cinching her waist.
Eternal heartthrob Mario Van Peebles was dapper in all black.
Derek Luke followed Mario’s lead, choosing a contrast lapel suit for the evening.
Actress Kirby Jackson uplifted a simple LBD with strappy sandals and a gemstone-adorned clutch. She’s a beauty!
Head of Television for Will Packer Productions, Korin Huggins, gave some flair to the classic black and white ensemble with a glossy, geometric-print floor grazing skirt.
Who had your favorite look at the event?
The beautiful Janelle Monae was spotted at last night’s Gordon Park Foundation Awards event clad in a black Barbara Bui caped dress, Brian Atwood black fringe heels, and a Naeem Khan black clutch:
The dress was originally spotted down the runway of her Winter ’16 collection, the cape boasting a beautiful emerald green color and a checkered print with fringe appearing over the dress.
Her heels have been spotted before on stars like Taraji P. Henson; a skyrocket high heel, these have fringe detailing around the ankle and sport a peep open toe.
Janelle looks stunning as usual, and I’m always impressed on how she revamps a sold black outfit. Yum!
What do you think of her look? Hot or Hmm?

Rihanna partied at Up and Down in NYC in a Dennis Basso Fall 2016 fur stole, Nine Inch Nails Vintage 90’s Tie Dye Tour T-Shirt and $2,435 Rihanna x Manolo Blahnik Dancehall Cowgirl Jewel Denim Booties:
Her stole was thrown over an embellished gown on the brand’s Fall 2016 runway.
Rih loves the 90’s and quite frankly, who doesn’t? Her tour tee is one of the band’s tie-dye tees from the decade.
Her light blue denim boots feature lace-up detailing, 4.1″ stiletto heels, and embroidered sequin embellishment.
I’m all for a vintage band t-shirt! I’m still on the fence about these boots though.
Get a similar version of Rih’s t-shirt here on eBay. Her booties can be purchased here and her stole is available at the brand’s NY flagship store.
