Her white stretch crepe vest features a v-neckline, wide lapels, structured shoulders, front pockets, and a center front button closure.
Her colorful floral print shirt boasts pleated detailing, a spread collar, long sleeves, a button-front, and fitted silhouette.
Her sold-out leather bag is bold in green! It features goldtone hardware, accordion sides with snap close straps at the front and back, an open top, the iconic French fashion house’s logo printed on the front, top handles, and a spring clasp detachable shoulder strap.
Her black suede boots feature a thigh-clinging fit, over-the-knee length, pointed toes, and side zippers.
There’s a lot going on here…a chignon or sleek ponytail would’ve given the look a bit more focus. I love the pieces individually!
The green colorway of Malaysia’s bag is sold-out, but you can rent her vest here, purchase her shirt here, and get her boots here.
Her dress is a fashion-forward take on the classic LBD, featuring three silver-tone metal zips at the front, contrast long sleeves, and an open back with a self-tie wrap. Kylie brought the ties to the front for maximum waist emphasis.
Hot!
If you’re up for the splurge, get Kylie’s dress here.
Reality star Laura Govan served all types of slayage for Instagram as she uplifted distressed Levi’s jeans, a Marina Hoermanseder Basket Weave Corset and a dusty pink House of CB duster coat. While choosing to forgo her nude Christian Louboutin pumps, this woman shut it down! She looks great, no?
FLOTUS Michelle Obama traveled to Buenos Aires in style as she donned a purple and amber printed midi dress by Narciso Rodriguez. Her sophisticated number features a bold circular design, three quarter sleeves and a classic sillhouette. Talk about chic! And, it was sooooo refreshing to see the entire Obama clan out and about – they’re such an inspiration!
With over 6,000 likes on Instagram, Ciara showcased her killer legs and golden tresses while uplifting an olive green Versace military-inspired vest and matching shorts. Her high fashion ‘fit was accented with the addition of nude Stuart Weitzman Nudist Sandals and that 16-karat engagement ring. Werk!
Next up, we have our girl Zendaya! The singer/actress made a quick appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres show in a Spring 2016 Monique Lhullier Two-Tone Magenta and Orange Lace Midi Dress. And, as with every other epic look she’s rocked, the style maven opted for an unexpected touch with patent blue pumps. This girl is on fire!
I’ve been watching this young woman for a while! And, she’s definitely a force to be reckoned with. The lovely Bonang Matheba attended The South African Film and Television Awards in an intricately-detailed black Taibo Bacar gown. The starlet slayed in two looks that evening but this was the favorite among our followers. Bonang accessorized with a diamond choker and a classy updo. Hot!
No matter the coming and going of trends, there are some we know are ALWAYS going to remain, and I would say pastels for Spring are definitely one of those trends.
We’ve been putting out our roll call for submissions, and we got quite a few rockin’ pastel looks from you guys! Let’s take a look, shall we:
Lucia Lolita, @lucialolita_style, gave me an ENTIRE slay in these beautiful pastel pinks and purples. Can I have everything in this look?
Ann Wynn @Ann.Wynn sent in a multitude of photos, each more fierce than the last! She showed us how to rock pastel suits, color coats, and pastel outerwear with white attire (check the gallery). WEEERRKKKK.
Simi, aka houseofara.com and on IG @SIMIOA, looked pretty in pink as she showed off this pastel coat with nude pumps. Love!
Monica said, “My name is Monica Warren. I am a style blogger at www.jewelswithstyle.com. I would love to be featured for wearing pastels. My Instagram name is @mreneedesign” Love the green!
Another Monica, on IG @AwedbyMoniand on her blog wrote, “Hey lovelies this is how I wear pastels. Thank you and have an amazing rest of the week.” Yes to this baby blue and them shoes girl!
Nubiana, aka @nubianaliloutee, looked cute in a pastel off-shoulder blue top. Beautiful!

Wow! Ya’ll really love the pastel trend and have given me some cool inspiration on how to rock it this Spring, including Sunday for Easter 🙂
Check out our gallery where we’ve got a ton more submissions and let us know your thoughts! Didn’t catch this How Do You Wear It in time? No worries, we’ve got something really special coming up very soon!
While First Lady Michelle Obama sometimes wears looks that are accessible to the entire world (we’ve all heard of J. Crew and the Tory Burch she wore in Cuba is available for purchase now) every once in a while she uses her privilege as a VIP and its access to pieces before anyone else. Prime example: For the First Family’s Argentina send-off, Mrs. Obama pulled out a blue and silver printed Tovero dress from Tory Burch’s Fall 2016 line, shown this past February at fashion week.
The dress is a beauty with long, cuffed sleeves and a two-tiered skirt that stops at knee length. The small gold buttons up the front are the perfect added touch.
While the look wasn’t one of an Argentinean designer, it no doubt was aimed at showing support for the American fashion industry. At the equestrian themed runway show, the dress seemed a bit longer than the First Lady’s version.
It was a beautiful look, one that will definitely have us looking forward to seeing the price point once it finally does become available. We’re expecting it to hit the $200 to $400 range.
Kylie’s lightweight heather-knit jersey dress features raw edges, a thigh-high slit, racerback, gathered detailing, a jewel neckline, and asymmetric hem.
Her lace-up sandals take on a gladiator-inspired silhouette with 4″ heels.
Kendall’s top features a cropped silhouette, twisted knot front, timeless gingham check, and a halter neckline with an adjustable halter strap.
Her matching trousers boast a high-rise, belted waist, and cropped length.
Cute!
Kendall’s steal-worthy top is up for grabs here. You can get Kylie’s dress here, her sandals here, and Kendall’s pants for a splurge here.
We’ve had a wide and diverse collection of Bombshells this week! Love it! Well, we’re ending off the week with Nardina, hailing from New Jersey:

The beautiful continent of Africa has been subjected to many stereotypes for centuries. Fortunately there are people dedicated to changing the narrative by providing informational resources for those looking to travel to the motherland. Jet Black is a budding travel company that focuses on tourism to countries that are often overlooked.
Jet Black wants the idea of traveling to Africa to expand beyond missionary and volunteer work. The goal is for the continent to become a primary vacation destination so that money can be put back into the economy. Their travel resources allow you to experience the beaches, nightlife, culture, history, food, spas and so much more. Consultations for groups, government officials, and individuals are also available.
The company was founded by Jessica Nambowa, a wanderlust who has visited 6 of the 7 continents. With over 60 countries under her belt, the travel noire decided to document her adventures on her blog The Catch Me if You Can.
We are definitely pushing Africa as a new vacation destination. What do you think? Will you be exploring Jet Black’s services?
