Balmain’s Olivier Rousteing might be the most popular creative director in the world, thus it comes as no surprise that all of Hollywood came out to celebrate his 30th birthday!
Models, actresses, and songstresses alike all came to fete Mr. Rousteing, rocking Balmain, of course.
Take a look:
Jennifer Lopez showed off her abs in a look from Balmain’s Fall 2015 collection.
Jada Pinkett Smith brought kids Jaden and Willow to the festivities, wearing a gold accented fringed dress from the Pre-Fall 2015 showing.
Jourdan Dunn was gone with the wind fabulous in a black mini dress and Brian Atwood Marella Pumps.
She grabbed a pic with fellow models Sigail Currie and Chanel Iman to create the most delectably hot Brown Bombshell picture imaginable. Work, ladies!
Mary J. Blige bet on all black for the night.
Kendall Jenner sizzled in a safari inspired Balmain ensemble.
Tyga and Kylie Jenner came through, with Kylie in white braided Balmain.
Kate Hudson kicked up her heels in a black and gold party dress.
Alessandra Ambrosio looked svelte in a champagne hued cocktail.
And the birthday boy gave chiseled cheekbones in a solo shot. Hot!
Looks like fun times were had by all.

Well, down here in Houston, the temps are starting to drop – the fall season is slowly drifting into full view. And, I’m loving every moment! This time of year has always been a personal favorite and (let’s face it) I’m ready to pull out my newly stocked jackets and boots. But, aside from the amazing vibes this season brings, let’s get into some of our best celebrity looks featuring some of our favorite style mavens.
Model and style enthusiast Karrueche Tran sizzled on the red carpet in a sheer, lacy number by Zeena Zaki. Her fitted midi dress features floral designs and black border. She also uplifted a pair of simple black sandals and a gold cuff. I live for this! As a petite girl myself, it’s always nice to get a surge of inspiration from other small-framed fashionistas. Love!
The gorgeous Kate Hudson attended the Rock The Kasbah New York premiere in a shimmery gown from Balmain’s Resort 2016 collection. The dress boasts a halter neck, lace-up silhouettes and a low-cut back. The actress also accessorized with a matching gold clutch and a sleek ‘do. Hot!
The CFDA Vogue Fashion Show and Tea was full of sartorial muses! From fresh-off-the runway supermodels to our favorite street style pros, the event was definitely one to remember. But, Chanel Iman shut it down in a red Fall 2015 Altuzarra high slit number and lace-up pumps. The striking model’s ‘fit also houses a high-neck, punchy prints and a dramatic hem. I’m loving this hair on her!
Y’all just don’t know! I’m beyond ready for this collection with Balmain x H&M to drop on November 5! I’ve always admired the brand’s designs (via the runway), I think Olivier Rousteing is everything. So, when the official launch for this iconic collab cued earlier this week, the stars came out in full force. Kylie Jenner smized for the paps as she rocked one of the key pieces from the collection – a gold embellished, long sleeved number. The addition of over-the-knee boots and an emerald waist-cinching belt completed her look.
Last up, we have Zendaya Coleman! The starlet was on hand for the CDFA Vogue Fashion Fund Welcome Cocktails while donning an eccentric striped dress by Tanya Taylor. The strapless wonder hails from Taylor’s Spring 2016 collection and highlights the stripes on stripes trend. Talk about making a statement! Werk!
The Balmain x H&M collaboration is set to be a surefire hit with fashion focused crowd! Of course, our fave celebrities are bound to have their fair share of fun styling with the fab finds. To wit, rapstress Nicki Minaj posed alongside beau Meek Mill at 105.1’s Powerhouse 2015 Concert sporting a Balmain x H&M Rope Embroidered Gold Detail Black Sleeveless Top and Embellished Open Toe Booties from the collection:
Her top features a rope bib-like detail with pops of patterned gold accents.
Her sleek and statement embellished open toe booties come equipped with a back gold-tone zipper for ease of closure.
Hot! I’m absolutely loving these pieces. I’ll wear ’em.
Laverne Cox went glam at the American Ballet Theatre 75th Anniversary Gala in a $3,400 Dee Hutton Bandit Gown:
Her silk faille and silk charmeuse dress features a fitted, sleeveless bodice, full skirt with high-low detailing and a train, and contrast banding at the hem.
Pretty!
If you’re up for the splurge, get Laverne’s dress here.
Solange Knowles is out and about in LA. She attended a T Magazine Celebrates The Greats event last night at Chateau Marmont in a Chayalan Orange Tunic, Shorts, and Stuart Weitzman sandals:
Her look was modeled with gold heels.
Hot! Citrusy tones are her thing!
What do you think?
Want to have Drake all over your lips?
Look no further than Tom Ford. As part of his 2nd annual Lips & Boys collection (where he names lipsticks after notable men in his life) the designer has tapped the Hotline Bling rapper as his muse.
The creamy $52 lip shade will boast a a deep burgundy color, and will be available for purchase on October 30th.
I love Tom Ford and Drake, so this seems like a match made in beauty heaven.
Would you splurge on ‘Drake’ lipstick?
We’re ending this week with an international Bombshell! Check out Mari from Sierra Leone:
She writes, “I am originally from Sierra Leone and currently live in Maryland.”
” I started my personal blog about five months ago.”
” Your fashion blog is a source of inspiration for upcoming bloggers like myself.”
” My style is versatile, confident, elegant yet fun. I enjoy collecting vintage pieces because its allow opportunity to create a truly distinct, unique, and liberating outfit to make one stand out.”
” Bold colors enhance my mood.”
” I believe it is a talent to be able to mix and match high and low end items to create a statement piece; it is not about the monetary value that makes an outfit but how an outfit is presented.”
” I will be overjoyed if I am chosen as a fashionbombshell for a day.”
Well, there you go! You shine in both bold color and neutrals. Work!
