Throwback Thursdays #TBT: The Style Evolution of First Daughters Sasha and Malia Obama

While we had already decided to tackle the beautiful style evolution of the Obama daughters after they slaaaaayed at the State Dinner in Naeem Khan, I definitely had to make sure they received love after that silly New York Times article tried to come for Malia’s hairstyle.Sasha-Obama-Malia-Obama-Jan-2009The Obama daughters, Sasha and Malia, respectively, have been nothing short of a joy to watch over the years as they have cultivated a style aesthetic very appropriate for their age and the professions of both of their parents. With a mama like Michelle Obama who teaches us how fashion is done, we should have known immediately they would be no different!Sasha-Obama-Malia-Obama-Aug-2008Sasha-Obama-Malia-Obama-Nov-2008When their father was first elected to the White House, both girls were still fairly young, yet played with matching color-coordinated outfits with each other and of course, FLOTUS Michelle Obama.sasha-malia-obama-inaugurationPresident Obama and first daughters Sasha and Malia were present at the Presidential Turkey Pardon Ceremony.As they both got older, we began to see them trade in children’s clothing with more youth-appropriate attire as well as cultivate individual aesthetics that are quite different! J. Crew, Lanvin, Tory Burch, and of course now top dogs like Naeem Khan are but a few of the many threads you’ll find the First Daughters rocking; however, at the end of the day, they still enjoy clothes of most adolescent young women.Sasha and Malia Obama make their way to board Air Force OneSasha-Obama-September-2015One thing I think we can definitively say (despite the controversy that arose over how much their dresses were for the State Dinner…as if other Presidents’ daughters don’t wear expensive gowns, but I digress), these girls have definitely transitioned into looks of their own and grown into beautiful women setting the bar high for the next generation of #BlackGirlMagic.Malia Obama and Sasha Obama in Naeem Khan Gowns at the State Dinner Honoring Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau

But let’s check out their beautiful style evolution right here in our gallery! What’s been your favorite look of Sasha’s and Malia’s? What do you think of their style evolution?

Splurge: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s The Hollywood Reporter and Jimmy Choo’s Annual Stylists’ Dinner Galvan Navy Crepe Bandage Jumpsuit

The Hollywood Reporter in collaboration with Jimmy Choo held its annual stylists’ dinner at Tower Bar in Los Angeles last night honoring breakout celebs and the stylists who’ve curated their noteworthy red carpet looks.  Model/actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley attended the soirée and looked as elegant as ever in this $1,363 Galvan navy crepe bandage jumpsuit.

Simplistic, yet chic, it’s perfect for any formal evening affair.  The wide bandage at the bust modernizes and offsets the form-fitting silhouette.  And in a classic shade like navy, it’s almost difficult to go wrong.

With an effortless side-part, minimal jewels – opting for a thin gold choker – and a striking red lip, she let her jumpsuit standout.

Beauty Crush Wednesdays #BCW: Ruby Rose

If you stay up to date with the latest models, DJs, or even just binge-watch Orange Is The New Black, then by now you’ll definitely have heard of the beauty that is Ruby Rose.

Ruby-Rose-5Ruby-Rose-4
So why is Ruby Rose our Beauty Crush Wednesday (you may secretly be asking yourself)? Well, aside from the fact the woman is just GORGEOUS on the outside, she also stands for huge ideas on what a woman is or can be. Ruby-Rose-3That simple idea of pushing the boundaries, in my opinion, is something beautiful and something we definitely explore and support on FBD.beauty-news-ruby-rose-urban-decay-fbd1In multiple interviews where she’s discussed her beauty aesthetic (she was just recently named the newest face of Urban Decay), Rose has long been vocal about the rigidity of the gender binary and gender roles. The lasting impression with what she pushes for all people to do? “Only you know who you were born to be, and you need to be free to be that person,” she told Elle magazine.Ruby-Rose-1Ruby-Rose-2At the end of the day, Rose’s self-love testament and urging of others to accept who they are empowers people to define their own identities, their own truths, and love themselves for who they are. It also embraces and pushes this idea of womanhood, which we celebrate every day but especially in the month of March. What can be more beautiful than that? beuaty-news-ruby-rose-urban-decay-fbd2

Female and human empowerment is beautiful, and so is Ruby Rose! Be unapologetically you, always. She’s definitely our #BCW, is she yours?

Check out this awesome video she did breaking down and exploring socially-imposed gender roles! Let us know your thoughts in the comments section!
