Earlier this week, the 2016 Breast Cancer Research Foundation held its highly-anticipated Hot Pink Party at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City! Every April, some of the city’s most revered philanthropists and celebrity guests attend this monumental event to help raise funds for lifesaving breast cancer research.

Let’s check out some of the gorgeous attendees!

Our girl LaLa Anthony shut it down in a semi-sheer Vera Wang number. Yes!

Actress Elizabeth Hurley was also on hand while uplifting a simple Jovani pink halterneck gown.

Fashionista Olivia Culpo chose a softer hue for the occasion. The beauty slipped into a Alessandra Rich off-the-shoulder pistachio knotted silk dress and matching heels. Cute!

Television personality Nigel Barker graced the cameras alongside his lovely wife Cristen Chin Barker. How adorable are they?!

Designer Vera Wang looked chic in a light pink ensemble.

Actress/singer Patina Miller slayed in all-black as she rocked a fun cocktail dress by Amaya Arzuaga. She accented her look with peep-toe pumps and a flawless top-knot. Werk!

Iconic ballerina Misty Copeland kept it sexy with a plunging neckline and cutout effects. She’s so beautiful!

Bethenny Frankel showcased her enviable frame in a structured burgundy pick.

Tracy Anderson was on-trend in a boudoir-inspired hot pink slip dress.

 

Thoughts on the looks?

Comedienne Amy Schumer chatted and chuckled with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show last night and looked sleek amidst the laughter and playful banter.  She wore a $950 Victoria, Victoria Beckham Two-Tone Wool-Crepe Mini Dress:

This ’60s-inspired shift dress is cleverly color-blocked to appear as a separate top and skirt.

 Cut from tactile wool-crepe, this design has a darted bust and is finished with subtle black satin trims. The silk lining creates a smooth and comfortable fit.

 

She punctuated her look with a slight smokey eye, high ponytail, and a pair of $675 Christian Louboutin ‘So Kate’ pumps:

 

 

In orange patent leather, this nearly five-inch stiletto brings a vibrant pop of color to her ensemble.

 

Amy’s been making us keel over in laughter and surely has our eyes open when it comes to her style.  And with this unpredictable weather, it’s nice to see a burst of color to liven up the room.  Though, with a personality like hers, I’m sure she doesn’t need it.

 

Do you think her look is worth the splurge?  If so, you can click here to shop her dress, and here for her shoes.

The women of today’s Beauty Crush Wednesday are two women that really pull at my heart strings…and not just because they took a photo with me at New York Fashion Week.

These beauties are known individually as TK Wonder and Ciprianna Quann, but collectively known as the Urban Bush Babes.

The first thing many people flock over is their hair, which, yes, is all theirs. Aside from carving out their niche in the natural hair community and true testaments that people with 4C textured hair CAN grow their hair long with proper nutrition and hair care, both young ladies have fostered individual communities through the platforms of motivational speaking, blogging, modeling and music. IIn addition to being a place for naturalistas to feel welcome and at home, UrbanBushBabe also tackles the worlds of beauty, arts, culture, self-affirmation, and definitely female empowerment. Both women have opened up before on how they were bullied about their hair (which I could definitely relate to), their style, and even opened up about their tumultuous childhood racked with addiction, abuse, and self-worth issues:

In all honesty, these women are beautiful for so much more than their physical aesthetics of beauteous facial features, eclectic style and out-of-this-world hair. Anyone willing to share their story and rise on top to not only better themself, but work to inspire and better the community, is totally worthy of being a beauty crush.“I decided a long time ago that I wasn’t going to let my past decide who I was,” was one of the most powerful quotes of the video, which also reveals the beauty in these women who are opening the door, through their own stories, the issue of mental health and addiction in the Black community. While we can sit and discuss how beautiful these women physically are or covet the locs of hair that fall from their crown, I would say the true beauty lies in the fact they represent hope for other young people in similar situations. That we are not byproducts of our past…we possess the magic to create our future.

I love these women so much and now, maybe you’ve been introduced to two more women you can add to your #BlackGirlMagic/BlackGirlsRock list. So that’s why they’re our Beauty Crush, are they yours?

 

Midweek has come quickly, and boy, am I already ready for the weekend! I always love featuring up and coming artists and designers who rock their work to see how you guys respond! Today, we’ve got Renita from BK, Brooklyn, NY:

“My name is Renita Biddle and I reside in Brooklyn, NY. “ 

“I am a designer, so I often wear my own designs.”

“I describe my style as spontaneous and unconventional chic.”

“I tend to stay away from trends and opt for bold, but whimsical fashion that’s based on an impulse or mood of the moment.”
“Thank you for your amazing, inspiring blog that has set the standard in the fashion realm!”

Okay Renita! You definitely rock a variety of looks with grace and confidence (which as a designer, is EXTREMELY important). I’m diggin’ that red jumper, especially. Ya’ll can check out Renita on IG: @cherubimrb. Let me know! What do you think of her style?

Do you ever see a product, and are not exactly sure if they’re Hot! or Hmm…? Such are my feelings towards Givenchy’s $375 Logo Leather Slides:

The design? Hot! There’s seriously nothing more comfortable than a leather slide in the summer. The Givenchy logo adds a dash of chic.

The price? Hmmm…these shoes definitely remind me of those Adidas Slides aka shower shoes that were de rigeur in junior high school.

And if those retail for $30, then you know you’re paying $325 extra to have Givenchy on your footwear. Sigh.


The whole ‘slide’ look has been picking up steam this Spring.



So what do you think? Would you splurge?


If so, do so below:

Kylie Jenner took to Instagram with gal pal Hailey Baldwin while donning a Barbara Bui Pre-Fall 2016 Soft Blue Blazer Mini Dress and $550 Monika Chiang Vesta Sandals in Silver Mesh Calf.

Her sultry blazer boasts a plunging neckline and button details.

The fashionista’s footwear was also on point! Her metallic showstoppers include a lace-up feature, peek-a-boo cutouts and a zip along the back for easy fastening.

The heel rings in at about 3.5-inches. Luckily, these gems are still available – get your own here!

Cute!

It’s just a day before the official launch of Beyoncé’s athleisure line with Topshop—aptly titled Ivy Park. In anticipation of the release, let’s tuck into its first lookbook for Spring!

The debut collection features all the classic sportswear nods: hoodies, flashy logos, crop tops, Bey’s “04” emblazoned on jersey-inspired designs, and more.

Relaxed sweatshirts and cropped toppers are things we’ll all surely start spotting at brunch in no time, though we’ll have to put the actual gear including sport bras and high-waist leggings to the test in the gym.

The collection goes on sale in T-2 days, so get your purchasing finger ready to shop at Ivy Park, Topshop, Nordstrom, and Net-A-Porter.

Will you be buying Ivy Park?

Celebrities have experimented a lot with the trend, but let’s take a look at 25 times in particular the trend really popped!
