Rachel Roy attended the LACMA gala over the weekend in the same Tamara Mellon Fringed Cocktail Dress Zendaya sported while in Paris for Fashion Week.
While Rachel accented the look with a blazer and bejeweled heels, Z went for subtlety, accessorizing with corresponding turquoise sandals.
The piece seems to be an interpretation of this look, modeled in Mellon’s Resort 2016 collection.
I absolutely love this dress and think both ladies look lovely in it! If I had to choose, I’d go with Zendaya. Her subtle pairings truly allow the dress to shine.
What do you think?
Gucci hosted The LACMA 2015 Art+Film Gala last night, honoring James Turrell and Alejandro G Iñárritu. The industry’s most stylish editors, celebrities, supermodels, and designers were in abundance, sporting showstopping gowns, flirty rocks, menswear-inspired blazers, statement-making accessories, and more.
Let’s get into the evening’s ensembles shall we?
Mommy-to-be Kim Kardashian layered a long blazer-inspired, lace-hem coat over a sheer lace dress, accented with a shimmering choker. Simply stunning.
Naomi Campbell was flawless in a long-sleeve croc print number with a crocodile skin bodice.
Salma Hayek was pretty in pink in a bustier-inspired gown, accessorized by Martin Katz jewelry.
Rachel Roy paired a turquoise fringe Tamara Mellon dress with an embroidered blazer and d’Orsay peep-toe pumps. The blazer wasn’t at all necessary: it only served to cover up a beautiful design!
Nausheen Shah was an absolute beauty in a black embellished gown with sheer panels.
Usher was so unfortunately casual for the affair: an expertly-tailored tux would’ve been perfect.
A $11,000 Silk Chiffon Gown with a plunging neckline and a contrast ribbon accent was Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s choice for the evening. She’s always gorgeous: this time was no exception!
Dakota Johnson made burgundy, mustard, and a modest silhouette work.
Nasty Gal’s Sophia Amoruso went glam for the evening in a black long sequin sleeve gown with sexy cutouts.
China Chow literally threw a wrench in the evening, draped in a Moschino gown boasting the handy tool. Cool no?
Jeremy Scott doesn’t do minimalism, thus he was present in a crystal-encrusted hat and logo-embroidered tuxedo jacket.
Jared Leto makes practically everything look good: even pink hair! I wasn’t too keen on his ‘fit, but I did like his jacket.
Diane Kruger showed just how chic pants can be in a strapless asymmetric hem blouse with a cascading train and cobalt trousers. I live for her style!
Gwyneth Paltrow showed off her toned gams in an embellished ruffle-accented dress and platform sandals.
Reese Witherspoon kept it surprisingly simple in a strapless black gown with a pleated bodice.
The Soul Train Awards went down last night in Las Vegas, Nevada, with loads of Fashion Bomb starlets on the carpet.
Take a look:
Erykah Badu hosted the festivities and took her job seriously! She went bold in a black gown with dramatic sleeves, and accessorized with a top hat and a Lillian Shalom rings.
Let’s take a moment to admire the back.
Bomb!
Regina Hall punctuated a lace top and leather pencil skirt with leopard pumps.
Kat Graham wore the Balmain x H&M dress I had my eye on! She worked the look with Giuseppe Zanotti Coline sandals.
Naturi Naughton beamed in a red From Haute Couture dress.
Eva Marcille took a risk in an Iconic Invanity beaded jumpsuit. She’s pretty enough to pull this off with pinache.
Tisha Campbell skewed racy in a sheer black dress.
MC Lyte chose a Byron Lars creation for the night.
Demetria McKinney came to slay in a Maria Harper Dress. Hot!
R. Kelly went for feral in a leopard calf hair jacket.
Big Tigger got it right in a tailored suit.
It was all good for Tank until the white shoes.
Erica Campbell looked lovely in a black dress and strappy sandals.
Chrisette Michele sported long locks and a figure flattering jumpsuit.
I really loved Empire’s Ta’Rhonda Jones’s sequined short suit. She’s so jazzy!
It’s good to see Tevin Campbell out and about! He was styled in a velvet Burberry blazer and a bowtie.
Janelle Monae worked her black and white color palette in a Chanel ensemble and Stuart Weitzman thigh high boots.
Her label mate Jidenna looked dapper in olive green tweed and argyle socks.
Babyface was honored at the ceremony, and posed with his adorable family on the carpet.
Inside…
My mouth dropped when I saw this picture of Fantasia. She looked fantastic in a high slit red dress with cut outs!
That does it!
Who had your favorite look from the event?

Kris Jenner celebrated her 60th birthday with a Great Gastby themed fete! Of course all her daughters joined in on the festivities. Khloe, Kendall, and Kylie all sparkled in dresses by Middle Eastern designer Yousef Al-Jasmi.
Khloe rocked a $16,500 net beaded gown covered with over 400,000 crystals.
Let’s take a moment to salivate over Kylie’s Krazy Kloset! Anywho, Kylie wore an $18,000 silver mesh and Swarovski beaded gown. Adorned with crystal chains and over 400,000 crystals, the piece took over 16 days to create.
Kendall wore an $8,000 Yousef Al-Jasmi silver fringed cocktail dress, which sparkled with over 100,000 crystals.
These dresses are everything! I’d wear one to my wedding, though, not my mom’s birthday party. Guess it’s all relative!
What do you think of their looks?
I recently stumbled across Kalamarie Handbags, a line of chic totes and clutches constructed with crocodile and leather.
One of my favorites is their $850 Josephine Saddle Bag in Gray:
The pieces comes in a load of colors, including navy blue, black, burgundy, and burnt orange.
Wear it over your shoulder or cross body. It’s perfect for fall!
Kat Graham shimmered and sparkled at the 2015 Soul Train Awards in the same $1,425 Giuseppe Zanotti Coline Sandals Jada Pinkett Smith originally wore back in July:
Kat paired the sandals with a green sequin Balmain x H&M mini dress, while Jada chose a $3,859 Strapless Embellished Mini Dress from the iconic French fashion house’s main line.
Her suede sandals feature with Swarovski crystal embellishment and intricately cut heel panels.
