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.
Scandal comes on tonight! Who’s tuning in?
Kerry Washington popped by Jimmy Kimmel to promote the show in a Black Calfskin and Silk Slip Dress from Balenciaga’s Resort 2016 collection:
Her exact dress wasn’t modeled, but you can see a top with a similar silhouette below:
Hmm…nothing to write home about, but that lip is gorge!
Her tan shearling coat hails from the Pre-Fall 2015 collection. It features concealed snap front fastenings and shorn side panels.
Her black mini skirt is crafted from leather taping over suede. It showcases a natural-rise waist, box pleat detailing, and an A-line silhouette.
Her black pebbled leather booties feature 4″ stacked heels with the British fashion house’s logo plate, an open-toe silhouette, covered vamps, adjustable ankle-wrap straps, and light golden hardware.
Such a great look for Fall!

If the Fall 2015 RTW Collection ushered in an era of uncertainty and excitement with the rise of Alessandro Michele (newest Creative Director behind Gucci), this Spring 2016 RTW Collection took us firmly in the land of his rejuvenated Gucci woman, back from her respite. There was literally land and sea printed on a bohemian-style dress with terms like Obedience, Generosity, and Sincerity. If those words were any indication of where the brand is going, I’m willing to go along for the ride.
The school girl ensembles originally shown in Fall 2015 made quite a few repeat appearances — berets, flowers askew, signature Gucci red-and-green striping, oversized reading glasses, and pleated skirts were in heavy rotation. It was a remarkable thing the first time, but in a second take, it makes me wonder whether I should come to expect this in every collection. Some things didn’t strike a chord for me, including a pineapple tie paired with a white suit with a snake wrapped on the pant leg and a striped shirt with flowers over the chest.
The journey was a bit disjointed for me. Sheer pastel dresses were mixed with chinoiserie-style sportswear, fur-trimmed coats, and seventies jewel-tone suiting. Who exactly is his Gucci woman and where is she going? But with some looks, I didn’t even care — my favorite piece was a peacock floor-length gown with gold metallic gloves. I could lowkey see Rita Ora wearing this for a formal fashion-y event. Another favorite was a red button-down dress with contrasting scribble print worn by model Nicole Atieno.
Overall, I came away feeling mixed thoughts, but it may just be that I had too high expectations following the success of Fall 2015. Here’s to hoping for more clarity on his Gucci woman in the next collection.
“My style is extensively imitative of styles from the 90’s but I’m starting to like the 70’s too as I’m currently in love with the bell bottom trend.”
” The 90’s was an interesting style decade.”
” During this period baggy silhouettes, mama pants, crop tops, snapbacks, chokers to mention but a few were the popular fashion fads most of which are back.”
” My style icon is Aaliyah, I loved that she had an “effortless-cool” style sense and she wore anything perfectly from baggy clothes to slinky dresses. She definitely has an influence on my personal style.”
” I feel most comfortable in baggy clothes therefore I am happy with the fact that sartorial trends are shifting to looser fits. I tend to wear sneakers often regardless of my outfit because of comfort. I love white sneakers, I can wear them with anything, my favorite at the moment are the Adidas Superstars.”
” In general, comfort is definitely key for me! “
Aren’t you adorable! You look like a young Janet Jackson. Gorgeous!
