Cocktails with Claire Atlanta is a few weeks away!
I hope Bombshell NikkiFree from the A will be in attendance:

She says, “I am NikkiFree, a 40+ plus size blogger who lives in Atlanta and loves having fun fashionably!”

” As I said in a September 2015 issue of Redbook Magazine, “When I walk into room, I want people to think ‘She’s fun, she’s approachable, she loves life.’ That’s how I love to dress.” “


“I would describe my style as Classic But Trendy.”


” I love clean lines and classic shapes but with a bit of a twist … bold colors statement pieces: a funky shoe, an oversized clutch, big bold jewelry.”

” I enjoy mixing high-end, luxury pieces and affordable clothing together to create a great look. So I don’t really have a signature style. I just like what I like. However, I do like to be different and a bit unpredictable.”


“I love bright colors and mixing patterns. Nothing is more exciting to me than to find a plus outfit that’s full of color. I definitely take body type into account. I’m curvy, so for me, I like clothes that compliment and accentuate my curves.”


“My blog, NikkiFreeStyle.blogspot.com, is just my way to memorialize my looks, encourage others (most especially women who are in our 40s and curvy/plus size women) by sharing styling tips and places shop. There are some treasures out there online for mature, professional curvy women to find fun and non-frumpy clothing. “

Oh wow, Nikki, you are fabulous!

Brace yourselves!

LLULO is sure to leave you breathless with their colorful and bold African- inspired designs! I discovered this gem through one of my photographer friends (hey, Deun!) and I’ve been a fan ever since.

According to their description, LLULO “expresses and exudes the strong essence of Africa and its People while serving as an exclusive presence to connect fashion and lifestyle consumers around the world with Ankara fabrics and other cultural influences“.

The brand has quite the variety as well – products include clothing, home decor and accessories. And, honestly, it was their keen taste for quirky sets and unique throw pillows that caught my eye.

LLULO is beyond affordable! With prices ranging from $18.50 to $135, you’re sure to find some dope pieces.

I’m here for it all!

The Creed promotions are going strong!
Tessa Thompson attended a mural unveiling for the movie in San Francisco in a look from Michael Kors’s Resort 2016 collection.

She sidled up to a neutral makeup palette, with a berry lip.

Her caramel intarsia-knit top, black dickie and caramel pleated skirt with black and white border were modeled separately in Kors’s presentation:

I like! I can dig the 70’s vibe.

I’m having a love affair with all things black.

Well, to be honest, I’ve always been a huge fan of the hue but fall/winter just brings even more reason to rock this sophisticated tone. And, H&M’s Black Faux Fur Jacket is the perfect addition for your cold weather wardrobe.

This short, straight-cut topper boasts an edgy feel and contributes a bit of texture to even the simplest of looks.

The jacket also features front and side pockets, concealed fasteners and a lined interior. And, it’s a steal – ringing in at only $79.99.

To purchase your version, head on over to H&M for more deets.

Remaining as as a mainstay on the celebrity style circuit, Moschino made an appearance out and about in New York tonight.  For the latest Scream Queens screening at the Crosby Hotel, actress and singer Keke Palmer wore a patchwork jacket and skirt set from the Italian brand’s Resort 2016 collection.

The design itself was a bit of a fun, kitchy take on the Chanel classic tweed suit and was shown in the lookbook paired with a tweed bikini top and quilted backpack. While that was nice and all, Palmer had other plans.

For her go, Keke went a bit more chic and subdued with an on trend black turtleneck. A simple pair of earrings and ring and we’re in business.

What do you think? Did Keke Palmer rock the look?

Cute!

Kat Graham took to the VH1 You Oughta Know Concert in the same Balmain x H&M Pearl Embellished Blazer Rita Ora originally sported just last month:

Kat paired the piece with black tights and patent booties, while Rita chose black suede thigh-high boots and fishnets.

Though it doesn’t seem so, the blazer is a lower-priced version of the iconic French fashion house’s signature pearl blazer.

Both looks were cute!

What do you think? Hot! or Hmm…?

Another day, another awards show! VH1 hosted the Big In 2015 awards show with Entertainment Weekly, with our favorite stylish actresses, hot mamas, and reality TV stars in attendance.

Let’s see what they wore!

Taraji P. Henson flaunted her curves in a lace-up Alexander Wang LBD and embellished sandals. What’s not to like?

Queen Latifah showed just how chic a blouse and trouser combo can be for the evening. Gorgeous!

Tasha Smith was white hot in a $357 A.L.C. Duncan Dress. Wasn’t too keen on her shoe choice, but there’s no doubt that she and this dress are stunning.

Amber Rose kept it shockingly simple with her signature shades, a long-sleeve v-neck LBD, and strappy sandals.

K. Michelle was draped in a $1,006 alice + olivia Kiara Feather Dress and sparkling accessories. Cute no?

I loved Nikki Mudaris’s $3,595 Balmain Wide Leg Jumpsuit and gold choker, though it was hard to focus on the radiance of the piece with her in-your-face décolletage.

How to Get Away with Murder’s Kendrick Sampson was dapper in a black suit, given a pop of Fall color with a forest green tie.

Kendrick’s How to Get Away with Murder co-star Amy Okuda was adorable in a scroll print glitter dress and black pumps.

Malaysia Pargo gave some edge to the classic LBD with a tulle skirt overlayer, statement-making necklace, and over-the-knee boots. Hot!

Mommy-to-be Apryl Jones flaunted her mile-long stems in a stud embellished cutout dress. She’s an absolute beauty.

The Puerto Rican Princess Joseline Hernandez served up loads of skin (no surprise there) in a fur vest belted at the waist, leather shorts, and t-strap sandals.

Wherever Joseline is, you can expect to see Stevie J not far behind! The Love and Hip Hop men love black leather, thus he wore the texture on a bomber jacket.

Yandy Smith Harris and Mendeecees Harris were quite the good-looking couple, with the Everything Girls Love owner in a Balmain x H&M velvet turtleneck.

Tamala Jones was also dripping in velvet, slipping on a $98 Factory Bell It Like It Is Jumpsuit.

Clearly all-black was the dress code as Straight Outta Compton’s Aldis Hodge also opted for it, donning a timeless black suit.

Jackie Christie is always clad in black, so that wasn’t a shocker. Her daughter Chantel looked gorgeous: a fun sequin LBD for the holidays no?

I actually loved Khandi Alexander’s retro suit moment!

It was all about prints for reality tv matriarch Mona Scott-Young in a long-sleeve colorful patterned maxi dress.

Aziz Ansari was virtually unrecognizable without his goatee! His suit was tailored to perfection.

Sister duo Kimberly and Amy Schumer were out together at their second event of the weekend, in a blue and red dress respectively.

I can’t wait for Hit The Floor to come back to TV! One of the show’s stars, Valery Ortiz, went bold in a green Mac Duggal dress. Hot!
