Eva Longoria kept it simple and chic at the Padres Contra El Cancers 2015 El Sueno De Esperanza Event in a Cengiz Abazoglu Fall 2014 Black Cutout Peplum Accent Dress:
Whew! New York Fashion Week was a complete blur, no?
We’ve witnessed some amazing collections and I’m excited to see what designers will present in London. But, as we continue to recover from the previous sartorial overload, I figured we’d get into some of our favorite looks of the week.
Solange Knowles definitely had an eventful week as she scoured the streets of New York in some eye-popping ‘fits. But, our absolute fave was her 3.1 Phillip Lim Spring 2016 presentation Zimmermann get-up. The statement-making piece features bell sleeves, a flared silhouette and horizontal sheer panels. Solo also paired her Fashion Week look with Schutz’s Karlyanna Caged Boots. Hot!
Ciara’s been slaying lately! The songstress stopped by Bravo’s Watch What Happens Livewhile showcasing her enviable legs in a mutli-colored set by Fausto Puglisi. I went crazy when I saw this on Instagram – the colors here are everything. Go girl!
Well, well.. it looks like Naomie Harris makes yet another appearance in our Look of the Week feature. While the actress uplifted golden tones in last week’s post, she flaunted some serious skin this week in a sultry David Koma number. Her gown boasts a lace-up detail and certainly increases the sex appeal. To top off the look, she rocked berry colored nails, a sleek ‘do and black heels. Werk!
Retro vibes were the inspiration behind J.Lo’s Diane von Furstenberg printed set! The American Idol judge served every bit of class as she smized in an ensemble from the designer’s Resort 2016 collection. With bold red lips and a 70’s-inspired coif, Jenny proved that a conservative take on fashion can also be quite intriguing. I’m here for it!
The lovely Zendaya was on-hand for the 2016 Miss America competition while donning a jaw-dropping silk gown by Michael Kors. Honestly, I adore the simplicity of this look! From her gorgeous curls to the amazing use of accessories, this style maven took this gown to a whole new level.
And, to round things off, we have Rita Ora! The songstress/actress attended the 2015 Harper’s Bazaar Icons Event in a black creation by Prada. The dress features some pretty intricate detailing including embellished long sleeves, a velvet collar and sheer panels. I also liked the dramatics of her makeup. She looks great!
Her jumpsuit is part of Adidas’s collection with Rita Ora. The black stretch piece features sheer color-shifting fabric panels on the shoulders and back, a mock turtleneck style, and 3-Stripes down the sides.
TGIF!!!
Yesterday, I decompressed post New York Fashion Week with a walk in Prospect Park. I kept my look sporty in a cropped hoodie and cinch leggings by Slim Girl Shapewear:
I normally don’t like wearing constrictive garments, but these leggings smooth out your belly, lift your butt, and make you sweat!
They felt so good, they gave me the confidence to try out a few of my old cheerleading moves.
LOL.
But seriously these leggings are the bomb, and look great for the gym, walks, or any sort of athletic activity.
How do they look?
We’re ending this week on a beautiful note!
Check out Silvia from Nairobi, Kenya:
She says, “My style is unpredictable and ever changing.”
” I sometime cringe at outfits that I wore 4 years ago.”
” So I am now more and more trying to keep it practical with a few classics for everyday wear, though I love to have fun with fashion and I am not shy about trying out new styles/trends on my blog as long as they feel good to wear.”
” I am quite soft spoken and sometimes shy so I live for fashion to do the talking for me.”
” I feel my best when I am dressed up with the right hair and makeup.”
It’s Friday, so let’s bring on our Fashion Bomber!
