It’s pretty safe to say that Rihanna will be wearing Dior for the duration of her Paris trip!
She visited the Eiffel Tower with friends and family wearing a multistriped coat from the brand’s Fall 2013 Couture Collection.
I ned the details on that lip! It’s perfect for Fall.
The coat was modeled off the shoulder by Joan Smalls in Dior’s Fall 2013 Couture presentation.
This look is unexpected, but Rihanna manages to make it look fly. Work your Dior, girl!

Beyonce has been supporting lots of black designers as of late! I’m here for it!
She posed with hubby Jay Z recently in a custom mustard yellow dress by 5:31 Jerome, topped off by a gold twill trench from Harbison’s Spring 2015 collection.
See a sketch of Bey’s dress below.
Her jacket has multiple buttons and wind flaps.
Both Beyonce and Solange look fantastic in yellow; and happiness always looks hot!

Virgil Abloh’s Off White Spring 2016 show was many things: a casual, crisp, and cool collection of layered garments. An updated take on the typical white shirt and jeans. An architectural assemblage of pieces uplifted by refreshing ruffles and patches. The show was fantastic! But sadly, it wasn’t diverse.
Virgil Abloh is best known as Kanye West’s creative director, and has been called the Maestro of Elevated Streetwear.
Kanye once told the New York Times, “Virgil is one of the smartest, fastest, most innovative people I’ve created with.” Kanye also once said, famously, “George Bush doesn’t care about Black People.” Could the same be said for Mr. Abloh in regards to black models?
Out of 21 looks in Abloh’s Off White collection, shown in Paris, only one was modeled by a black woman.
In an age where every season, runway designers get graded on their attention to diversity (and fail miserably), one would think that a black designer from Chicago would go over and above to make his show diverse. Malaika Firth, Jourdan Dunn, Joan Smalls, Herieth Paul, Ysaunny Brito, Riley Montana, Maria Borges, Tami Williams, Lineisy Montero, Cindy Bruna, and Binx Walton are all in town. I know because they all walked in Balmain’s Spring 2016 show. Couldn’t the casting director for Off White book just a few more women of color?
I’ll be honest, I wasn’t going to ‘go there,’ and was just going to put up the show review and keep it pushing. But the lack of color was pretty obvious. And if black designers don’t make it a point to include black models in runway shows, who will?

Zendaya Coleman went glam at the Vivienne Westwood Spring 2016 Show in a Spring 2015 Gold Floral Embellished and Plaid Dress from the brand:

Beyonce gave Janet Jackson and Carmen Sandiego a run for their money for a dinner date in NYC over the weekend, rocking a black hat, a $275 Alice + Olivia Janis Tie Neck Blouse and the brand’s $998 Leather Bell Bottom Pants:
She shielded the fall chill in a $796 Talia Back Pleated Long Coat:
Her tie neck blouse is crafted from stretch-woven silk and finished with a slight high/low hem.
Her five pockets pants are made from lambskin leather.
Her jacket has a fitted bodice and padded shoulders.
I love those pants, just wonder if I’ll still love ’em next winter…
While I contemplate, get Bey’s look below:
Hayley Kiyoko was spotted at Teen Vogue’s 13th Annual Young Hollywood Issue Launch Party in LA in the same $850 Alexander Wang Studded Silk Turtleneck Rita Ora originally wore just last month:
Hayley paired the look with the brand’s $650 Wide Leg Ballchain Zipper Pants and silver ankle-strap sandals, while Rita chose Wang’s $695 Cottonwool High Waist Pants and her favorite Vera Wang boots.
The black ribbed sweater is crafted from a blend of Italian silk and cashmere. It boasts burnished studs at the turtleneck and long sleeves.
Hayley won this round for me!

Kris Jenner stepped out for dinner at Hotel Costes with her boyfriend Cory Gamble in the same $2,385 Balmain Striped Long Line Cardigan and $2,305 Trousers daughter Kim originally wore back in June:
There wasn’t much difference between how Kris and Kim styled it, though the Kardashian-Jenner matriarch did add reflective shades and a ribbon choker.
The black and gold striped cardigan features a long length, 80’s-inspired shoulder pads, and a detachable self-tie waist belt.
The matching trousers showcase a contrast elasticated waistband.
I loved this look on both ladies!
