Selena Gomez appeared at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show after party in the same Mugler Spring 2016 dress sported by Naomie Harris at the Spectre London Premiere after party .
While Naomie added pizzazz with Zanotti sandals, Selena opted for black platforms.
They both look great, but Naomie wins this for me! The silver shoe is scintillating, and picks up perfectly on the frock’s embellishments.

H&M has been in the news quite a bit lately!
First, they made waves with their blockbuster Balmain x H&M collection, and now their South African enclave is under fire for insinuating that white models convey a more positive image.
H&M South African customers called the store out for not using black models in their advertisements, and went to Twitter to voice their concerns.
H&M responded, “H&M’s marketing has a major impact and it is essential for us to convey a positive image. We want our marketing to show our fashion in an inspiring way, to convey a positive feeling. ” Read the rest here:
The suggestion? That black models don’t, in fact convey a positive, inspiring image. Really?
Of course H&M quickly backtracked, saying, “H&M regrets the response to a social media message that was recently aired on Twitter and wish to clarify the intention of this message. In no way does H&M state that positivity is linked to an ethnic group. H&M is proudly a global brand that embraces all people who are inspired by fashion, regardless of ethnic background, gender or culture.”
Though H&M apologized, it does offer some insight into how some companies feel about black models, and provide an explanation as to why there is an endemic diversity issue in the fashion industry. Apparently they don’t think we’re inspiring, despite innumerable instances proving otherwise.
From the overwhelming response to the Balmain collaboration, designed by bi-racial designer Olivier Rousteing, H&M should know that reflecting the diversity in the world is in fact very positive and great for business.
Sigh, we already know this, but when will the rest of the world catch on? Let’s hope it’s in this lifetime.
What do you think?
Her body-con midi dress has front and back petal cut-outs binded with neoprene and features an invisible back zipper closure and a back open zipper for an optional back slit.
Hmm…not sure this is the most flattering on her, but her hair and makeup are bomb! What do you think?

Also at the after party:
Selena Gomez killed it yet again, this time in Mugler.
Gigi Hadid smiled with her equally gorgeous mom Yolanda Foster. Gigi looked bomb in House of CB.
Joan Smalls flashed her legs in a high low skirt.
Tyson Beckford brought his pink suit back to the carpet, but unbuttoned a few button on his shirt.
Hey Bombshells!
Apologies for the site issues. We switched to a new server for faster speed! But now we’re back up to speed, and ready for today’s Bombshell, Deola from Wales:
She says, “My name is Deola, I live in Swansea, Wales but I am from Nigeria.” ” I am not sure how to describe my style, it is sometimes simple, sometimes over the top.”
” I pride myself on knowing how to wear an item more than once, because you know, I’m not yet a millionaire.”
” If it can only be worn once or the same way, I don’t buy it.”
” I have been blogging for a minute now and I have always wanted to send my pictures in, I finally got over my fears today and I am typing this.”
“Thank you in advance for the feature and your nice comments.”

If you run back all of Janet Jackson’s many transformative and groundbreaking beauty moments, you’ll find yourself smiling perhaps a day or two from now: she truly does have that many gorgeous looks. From her showstopping ponytails in “Got Til It’s Gone” to her sleek, straight hair in “Pleasure Principle”, we could essentially go on and on about the way she’s reinvented herself throughout the decades. Here we shall, just a bit.
The simultaneous grace and power of her dance moves, the sweetness of her melodic voice that oft never reaches above a whisper, the strength of her chiseled abs and cheekbones: she’s a force to be reckoned with and a veritable icon. She’s experimented with every kind of fashion known to man from high-waist, skintight denim (thank you early 80’s and coming back around again now) to 70’s chic trenchcoats.
To say that her curves and skin are on fleek would be an understatement and Ms. Jackson (if you’re nasty of course) is a true testament to the dynamism of natural beauty: though we know she works hard for what she’s got, having been touring for more years than we care to count. Halloween just passed and over twenty years later, so many young women still dressed up as her character Justice in famed Poetic Justice—long box braids and all.
And though we write about trends day-in and day-out, Janet never has to abide by them: mostly because she’s in the business of setting them, effortlessly. She’s sensuality, vulnerability, art, and elegance all wrapped up into one.
A lady is said to never reveal her age, but when 49 looks this good, it’s something you should shout from the rooftops. She’s back at the top of the charts yet again with her latest album Unbreakable, taking it back to her soft auburn curls, statement-making jewelry, and loose trousers.
We’re locked in to everything that Janet does and it’s truly good to have her back, isn’t it?
Like so many of us, Hood By Air’s Shayne Oliver is in love with Empire and Lyon family matriarch, Cookie Lyon. “Everyone I know was inspired by that show,” Oliver told VOGUE.com. “Cookie’s a boss and doesn’t comply with any sort of male rules.” The brand even used her voice for the soundtrack of their Fall 2015 show, which is why the announcement that HBA will be creating the hit FOX TV’s show first collection of branded merchandise is so epic.
The pieces riff on the brand’s signatures, though they boast the visages of the series’ stylish characters including Jamal, Hakeem, and of course, Cookie. Everything from basketball-inspired shorts to skintight printed turtlenecks are featured in the assortment.
Of his inspiration, Oliver stated, “A lot of it is also references to things I grew up with, that are very specific to Queens. All the boys in the oversized Hot 97 Summer Jam tees, all the West Indian girls in the printed Gallianos and Moschinos.”
There may even be another set of designs in the future, but we’ll just have to wait and see. No preview of the price points just yet either, but they’re most likely going to be in line with HBA’s current price points: $560 for a short-sleeve logo dress, close to $200 for earrings, and at times over $1K for shoes and handbags.
The capsule collection will be up for grabs in just a few hours, so get your buying finger ready. Check it out here.
