Nicole Scherzinger was zombie chic at Heidi Klum’s Halloween Party in a $198 House of CB Marikko Black Bandage Lace Dress:
Her daring lattice bandage dress features stud embellishment, a halter neck, knee-grazing length, and a bandeau bandage top and shortie underlayer.
Hot!
If you’re up for the splurge, get Nicole’s frock here.
Thoughts?
The Carters made their way to 1 OAK night club where they channeled characters from the classic movie, Coming To America. Jay Z came correct as Prince Akeem and Beyonce as a stunning rose bearer. For the occasion, Lady B donned a $185 Demestiks NYC Zeina Ankara Print Off The Shoulder Flounce Skirt Detail Mini Dress:
Cute!
Her vibrant ankara print off the shoulder dress features short bishop sleeves and flounced skirt detail.
Loving the combination of all the playful prints. In this case, more is more!
If you’re feeling her frock, purchase yours here.
What do you think?
Nicki Minaj dressed as a princess for Halloween! She hit up 1 Oak at the Mirage Hotel in a tulle, sequined custom dress by the Blonds.
She added height with Azzedine Alaia boots.
See a similar pair of heels below.
Though scandalous, she looks cute. Guess Halloween is an occasion for people to let it all hang out…
What say you?
It was all about stripes for Gwen Stefani at the UCLA Neurosurgery Visionary Ball. The superstar slipped on a Reem Acra Spring 2016 Striped Halter Mini Dress for the evening:
Gwen eschewed the runway’s headband and added in sheer hosiery for a Fall-perfect accent.
This was a bit sexier than we’re used to seeing Gwen dress and I loved that! The frock doesn’t feel very much like Reem Acra…it isn’t my cup of tea.
What do you think? Hot! or Hmm…?
Happy Friday y’all!
We’re back this week with another Look of the Week feature and, let me tell you, the competition is fierce! So, without further ado, let’s get to it!
Ready?
1) Brandy in Elisabetta Franchi
First up, we have singer/actress Brandy! The pop icon attended the The Paley Center’s Hollywood Tribute to African-Americans in Television while uplifting an embellished number by Elisabetta Franchi. Her ‘fit boasts a wrap effect and a clean silhouette. This is perfection! Everything – from the silver box clutch to her cobalt blue pumps. Go girl!
2) Zendaya Coleman in DSquared2
Last night, Hollywood’s finest showed up and showed out for the amfAR Inspiration Gala in Los Angeles. The scene sizzled with flawless makeup, eye-catching designer duds and flashy smiles. But, it was style maven Zendaya who stole the show! The 19-year old starlet took a hint from the boys and donned a black DSquared2 short suit. She paired her menswear look with strappy sandals and oversized, statement earrings. She’s gorgeous, no?
3) Angela Bassett in Michael Costello
Queen Angela Bassett was also on-hand for the amfAr Inspiration Gala. The stunning actress looked every bit of radiant in a plunging, black and white gown by Michael Costello. She also flaunted a crystal half-mask and a beasty bob. And, um, can we get into those arms?! Lawwwd – I got one word for this: GOALS!
4) Chrissy Teigen in Balmain
Balmain is everywhere nowadays, right (hey, Olivier)?! With that said, a glowing (and expectant) Chrissy Teigen was spotted out and about for dinner in a striped stretch-knit jacket and matching skirt by the brand. She accented her look with a simple black top and a black clutch. Hot!
5) Solange in H&M
Solange Knowles hit the H&M red carpet in Sydney, Australia while wearing their own gold buttoned blazer. The closet staple uplifts a plunging neckline and a tailored silhouette. The fashionista also slipped into a pair of black Schutz Juliana sandals. I can dig this – minimal yet effective.
6) Naomie Harris in Valentino
Actress Naomie Harris looked edgy but chic at the Berlin premiere of Spectre in an astrology-inspired gown by Valentino. Her dress showcases jaw-dropping embroidery, a sheer effect and an “out-of-this-world” print. Gold sandals and berry beauty accents completed her look. Yes!
So, who gets your vote this week?!
Signing Out — Esmesha
Naomie Harris was a ray of sunshine at the Spectre Moscow Photocall in an Altuzarra Resort 2016 Yellow Slit Skirt Suit and $533 Sophia Webster Nicole Camo Sandals:
Her suit was paired with strappy black sandals and a white shoulder bag in the brand’s Resort 2016 collection.
Her neon pink patent leather sandals feature camo print back panels and stiletto heels and neon orange patent leather wraparound buckled ankle straps.
Another flawless look from Naomie!
What do you think? Hot! or Hmm…?
Happy Friday!
So we have part 2 of our NYFW Let’s Go Places with Claire video, sponsored by Toyota and Lexus!
The viddy covers day 3 of NYFW, where I was honored with a Fashion Innovator award by Sheen Magazine! While at the brunch, I took a moment to interview Quad of Married to Medicine about style and reality TV. She said, “Don’t get caught up in being a reality star. I know where my celebrity has come from, but who just wants to be a reality star? We have to take that idea and maximize your potential, and become a brand. Build your own empire.”
After the brunch, I popped by LaQuan Smith’s presentation! I chatted with Christina Milian about her upcoming projects, and even had her give us a preview of her new song.
See the whole shebang here:

We’re ending this week with bright ray of sunshine, Tope from Charleston, South Carolina:
She says, “I am of Nigerian descent, from a big city and currently living in the south, working as an attorney.”
” My style is sophisticated, but funky with cultural influences.”
” I love pieces that I can take from day to night and I’ve never met a print I didn’t like!”
“I started a site with my Bangladeshi friend, Sarah Faroqi, www.somethingwithspice.tumblr.com, IG @somethingwithspice because as black and brown girls, we don’t see enough representation of style, grace, class and funky fashion from people who look like us.”
Alright, well I’m happy you found us! Your smile and your spirit shines bright. You’re a Bombshell!

It’s hard out there for a working mom! Laura Govan displayed as much in a recent Instagram photo, where she cooked, helped her kids with homework, and more in a button down shirt, sky high Christian Louboutin pumps, and the same Opening Ceremony Terazzo Print Skirt she wore to Karen Civil’s Empowerment Brunch last November.
While she went for crisp this go round, she first wore the piece with a 3.1 Philip Lim top, an Alexander Wang moto jacket, and a pair of Christian Louboutin pumps.
The skirt features an abstract multicolored print.
I think she looked great both times! It’s a cute piece.
What say you?
*Laura caught some flack for the below photo:
Apparently, her followers felt it looked seriously staged. What say you?
Ready for our Friday Fashion Bomber? Take a look at Richard from Maryland:
He says, “I am from Prince Georges County, Maryland.”
” A more notable term for the area would be “the DMV”.”
” My style is either casual or street.”
” I usually try to incorporate one with the other.”
Yassss! Represent for the DMV!
See more @reichr0.
