Today marks the official start of New York Fashion Week and the city is abuzz with its fair share of super stylish events. To wit, the 2015 Couture Council Awards Luncheon honoring Manolo Blahnik saw stylista Camila Alves sporting a sleek Fall 2015 Georges Hobieka Sleeveless High Neck Tulle Illusion Panel Jumpsuit:
Come through one time for the natural look makeup with those full and fab brows! Yes!
Her streamlined jumpsuit features a high neck with a tulle illusion paneling on the bodice.
She looks absolutely amazing showcasing classic style at its very best. What say you? Hot! Or Hmm…?
Actress and mogul Jessica Alba beamed on Instagram alongside Tory Burch and friends at her Honest Beauty Launch in New York City. For the occasion she donned a Resort 2016 Jonathan Saunders Cube Print Overlay Long Sleeve Round Neck Dress and Jimmy Choo Pink Suede Pumps:
Her sleek long sleeve midi dress features an overall cube print overlay.
She paired her crisp white frock with Jimmy Choo Pink Anouk stiletto pumps.
I quite liked this streamlined look with the perfect punctuation of color.

Thoughts on her ‘fit?
It’s the first day of Fashion Week! So I decided to bless the occasion with an artful Bombshell.
Take a look at Naballah from Trinidad and Tobago:
She writes, “My style is quite eclectic and influenced by my religious beliefs and culture.”
” The diversity and beauty of the Caribbean is apparent in my styles with many different hues.”
” I love playing around with ideas on how stylish I can be whilst staying covered, because it pushes me to become more creative since I don’t show any skin.”
” My style is built around combining a variety of fashion eras in my outfits, through the use of unexpected colors palettes, prints and textures.”
” Style blogging is such a deep passion of mine.”
” Everything I wear I’ve designed and sewn.”
” I love the element of creativity and so I consider my body a canvas and my garments the paint brushes, where I get to create ART when the two meet.”
Beautiful! Show ’em how to be covered and chic!

Happy Thursday everyone!
My South Africa trip is coming to an end: if you’ve never visited Johannesburg or Cape Town I implore you to do so immediately!
This week, celebs flocked to the GQ Men Of The Year Awards, film festivals around the globe, beach-side vacations, and promo tours.
Let’s see what they wore!
Naomie Harris was gilded at the GQ Men Of The Year Awards in an embellished mesh dress from Julien Macdonald, Tamara Mellon Frontline Sandals, and a Tyler Alexandra clutch. Hot!
Supermodel Jourdan Dunn shimmered and sparkled in a stripe sequin Sonia Rykiel number at the awards show.
At the Ma Ma Madrid Premiere, Penelope Cruz flaunted her décolletage and toned gams in an off-the-shoulder embellished LBD. Isn’t she gorgeous?
Kim Kardashian and adorable daughter North frolicked on the beach in St. Barts. They’re so cute!
Rita Ora was the lady in red at the Jeremy Scott: The People’s Designer Hollywood Premiere in a studded leather getup from Moschino in the fiery hue. The fit left a bit to be desired, but it’s a hot look nonetheless!
Closing out the week was Dakota Johnson, who continued the season’s off-the-shoulder red carpet trend in an embellished Marc Jacobs gown. Another flawless look from the actress.
Who had your favorite look this week?
It’s that time of year again! September is undoubtedly the highlight of the fashion season as the who’s who of fashion hit the scene to take in all that is Spring/Summer 2016. For a few New York Fashion Week inspired looks, tap into today’s style inspirations.
Opt for editor chic realness in a wrap sleeveless blazer and cropped pleated pants.
Add details to the look with a pair of fringed sandals, a leopard print tote, burgundy wide-brim hat, and a pearl embellished choker.
Incorporate jewel tones to a neutral palette for a flash of color.
A sleek peep toe bootie, fringed suede satchel, and a chunky gold ring highlight this cropped-maxi combo.
Work a few layers in a shawl collar sleeveless waistcoat, a high neck jersey top, and cropped leather straight-leg pants.
Punch things up with a suede clutch, lace-up heels in a vibrant hue, and tortoiseshell oversized shades.
Add a feminine spin to a fringe pencil skirt with a silk crepe pussy bow blouse.
Embellished leather pumps, a black Hermés cuff, and silver aviator shades give the look an edgy feel.
And that’s it! Which look best fits your Fashion Week agenda?
Bevy Smith kicked off New York Fashion Week last night with a party at the Just Cavalli store in Soho! For the occasion, she paired black pumps with an $835 Mixed Print Dress by the Brand:

Her v-neck frock as a geometric-snakeskin combo print and short sleeves.
Purchase at Neiman Marcus.

Happy day before Fashion Week!
Yesterday, I was honored to join fashion icon Iman for her talk at the 92nd Street Y with Fern Mallis!
The Somali model was discovered by Peter Beard while a political science student at the University of Nairobi in Kenya. She moved to New York with little knowledge of the fashion industry, but became a muse to Yves Saint Laurent, and walked the runways of Versace, Donna Karan, Calvin Klein, and more (read about her story in Vintage Visions). In addition to her beauty, she’s brilliant (she speaks five languages), and a serious business woman: her makeup line, Iman Cosmetics, is a $25 million beauty empire, and her collection on HSN is its 2nd best seller! She’s the Bomb!
For the night, she offset a droolworthy plum ensemble with a bright red Balmain gold button blazer. I was so in love with the blazer, that she let me try it on!
How did it look?
There were other fabulous fashion icons in attendance, including June Ambrose and Jay Manuel.
Robert Verdi and McKenzie Liautaud.
Along with W Magazine’s Edward Enninful and model Alexis Primous. Alexis the winner of W Magazine’s model search. Isn’t she gorgeous?
For the night, I wore a Balenciaga t-shirt, Michael Kors sequined joggers, and Prada sandals.
Today is absolutely crazy! I’m trying to get last minute things squared away before Day 1 of New York Fashion Week! Stay tuned!
We hope to bring you loads of original content. Stay locked in here (Oh and we’re getting a redesign tomorrow! Hope you like it!).
Smootches!
