It’s never to soon to start preparing for the cooler months ahead, right?
So, when I found out about Nasty Gal’s 70% sale, I went HAM! Although many of my finds are just sitting in my cart , the Nasty Gal Shine Off Sequin Dress is a purchase I’ll actually follow through with (lol).
The Shine Off Sequin Dress uplifts crystal detailing at the neck, silver studs and tons of black beading.
Available for $68.40 (marked down from $228.00), I’d definitely consider this a steal! Dress it up with a pair of your favorite over-the-knee boots or rock it as a top over a pair of bomb jeans.
I’m still a bit dizzy from How To Get Away With Murder. Definitely catch up on #TGIT this weekend if you weren’t able to watch last night!
This week, celebs kept the Fashion Month love going in London, attended charitable events in the States, made television appearances, and more.
Let’s see what they wore!
Zendaya Coleman snapped a selfie at the Power106 Celebrity Charity Basketball Game in LA, sporting a camo hat, matching camo pants, a crop top, and army green leather lace-up booties. She’s a cutie!
Rita Ora played cheerleader at the game in the quintessential long-sleeve, mock neck crop top and pleated mini skirt. Cute no?
At the Topshop Unique show, Jourdan Dunn showed off her mile-long stems in an embellished leather mini skirt, stripe top, and ankle-strap pumps.
Ciara also popped by Topshop Unique in a white shirt, black zip skirt, and boots, all by the British brand.
Hannah Bronfman was white hot at the 2015 Allure Beauty Awards in a jumpsuit from FBD fave HARBISON. Gorgeous!
Few love a bodycon number more than Sofia Vergara. When you’ve got a body like hers, wouldn’t you? For an appearance on Good Morning America, she slipped on a navy design with a two-tone hem.
I wasn’t surprised to see Burberry darling Sienna Miller at the fashion house’s Prorsum Spring 2016 show, but I was delighted by her Fall-perfect forest green fur coat. I need this in my closet immediately!
A billowing jumpsuit with cold shoulder cutouts and a tie-waist was Shay Mitchell’s choice at the Bon Voyage to Summer with Stella Artois Party in NYC.
Selena Gomez showed off her bikini bod on Miami Beach in a black, sleek one-piece.
At the Pan UK Premiere, Roxie Nafousi slipped on her second Needle & Thread ensemble. I’m slowly, but surely starting to fall in love with this brand!
Maggie Q and fiance Dylan McDermott went glam at the Metropolitan Opera Otello Premiere. Couples don’t get much better looking than this. And I can’t wait to see this staging of the classic opera.
When the celeb style set want to look sexy, they opt for Bec & Bridge dresses. Lea Michele donned an orange leather style with a plunging necklace from the brand while making an appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show. Hot!
Jamie Chung kept it simple and chic in a strapless tiered top and flares while out and about in Beverly Hills.
Jane The Virgin returns to TV in just a couple weeks! Its star Gina Rodriguez wore a black embellished zigzag crop top and pencil skirt at EXTRA’s Weekend of Lounge in West Hollywood. She’s adorable!
Closing out the week was Sofia Sanchez de Betak at The Ballet National de Paris Opening Season Gala in a printed strapless Dolce & Gabbana dress.
Natalie Portman kept it colorful at the Paris Opera Ballet Défilé Opening Gala at the Palais Garnier in a dress from Dior’s Spring 2015 Couture Collection:
She accessorized with Charlotte Olympia red satin heels and De Grisogono jewelry.
Her dress was modeled with slick blue boots.
It also comes in yellow.
She looks great! The dress is festive and fun.
What do you think?
Earlier today, reality starlet Draya Michele snapped a quick pic via Instagram while uplifting a royal blue ASOS jumpsuit and $675 Aquazzura Linda gold leather sandals.
Her sassy footwear includes cross ankle straps and a slim toe strap.
These beauties also boast a 4-inch heel.
I mean, you can never go wrong with a pair of metallic stunners! But, for this price, I’ll take an ‘ L’ on this one…
Yet, if you’re up for making the splurge, check out additional purchasing details here.
Ciara rocked all black for a night at Libertine Club in London!
She’s a Topshop ambassador, so naturally wore a black dress by the British Brand, topped off by Christian Louboutin Thigh High Boots:
Are you feeling her blunt bangs?
Her exact dress isn’t available, but these Topshop options come close:
Kerry Washington is heavy on the promo trail today! She hit up Good Morning America this am in a red dress from Giambattista Valli’s Pre-Fall 2015 collection:
She later changed in a black floral dress from their Resort 2016 collection, along with Christian Louboutin Marguerite black satin and mesh point-toe pumps.
Neither of her looks were modeled in the brand’s presentations, so we’ll just have to ogle her awesomeness!
So Empire Season 2 sizzled back on our collective TV screens last night! Did you watch?
The show is back in fly style, with loads of cameos (I saw Andre Leon Tally, Chris Rock, Al Sharpton, Swizz Beatz, and more), runway fashion, and dope hair!
I hosted a fun watch party at my crib, sponsored by Carol’s Daughter:
During the show, I was living for Cookie’s Gucci and Moschino pieces, topped off by a slick bun with every strand in place (achievable with Carol’s Daughter Monoi Flexible Hold Hairspray):
Boo Boo Kitty has some moves on her, doesn’t she? That scene was certainly a surprise!
Lastly, Porsha’s updos can stay popping with a boost of volume from new Carol’s Daughter Monoi Conditioning Dry Shampoo.
Of course, as you know, all the products are the bomb!
At any rate, last night was fun. I’m still recovering.
Did you watch Empire last night? Are you excited for the season?
*A few people on IG were talking about the cords on my wall. I’m honestly clueless. Any thoughts on a solution?
**I wore a Kanye for Prez tee (just for fun!) and leather pants to my party. Stay tuned to TheBombLife.com for outfit deets.

Beyonce recently unleashed a slew of pictures from her vacation in Italy! Though we covered a load of her looks already, there are several more.
It seems Mrs. Carter went on a shopping spree at Zimmermann for most of her leisurely ensembles.
Take a look:
Her wide-rib jersey turtleneck dress is made in Kenya. It features leather-covered buttons that accent its vented cuffs, long sleeves, and contrast banding at its double-layered turtleneck.
I think black booties would have been more effective here, but the dress is autumnal perfection.
Selena’s dress is sold-out, but you can get other frocks from the brand here.
