The Solange Knowles train is showing no signs of slowing down! She took in the 3.1 Phillip Lim Spring 2016 show in a Zimmermann Spring 2016 White Embroidered Dress and $395 Schutz Karlyanna Caged Boots:
Her frock just debuted at NYFW.
Her beige vegan leather boots feature a caged design, knee-high silhouette, peep toes, and zip and lace-up closures at the back.
Another amazing look from Solange!

“Dutty Vagrant Swag.” “12 Years a Slave Chic.” “Homeless Couture.” These are just a few phrases Fashion Bomb readers used on Instagram to describe Kanye West’s 2nd collection with Adidas.
For someone who entreated the world to ‘Listen to the Kids,’ it seems Kanye West is turning a deaf ear to the critics, unveiling a series of garments that look a lot like his initial offering–this time in more muted pinks and nudes. The high waisted spandex, loose layers, and solid colors that brought him much derision are back again. Mr. West has a vision, and he’s sticking to it.
Even though the items themselves aren’t particularly groundbreaking, they certainly fall in line with the monochromatic aesthetic wife Kim West has been espousing. Though pared down, Mrs. West certainly has a ‘look’ that is bold in its unwavering simplicity.
If anything, what ‘the kids’ can always cling to are West’s shoe selections. His Yeezy Adidas sneakers flew off shelves and drove up auction prices on Ebay, and there’s no doubt the boots and lace ups in this collection will find their way onto the feet of fashion devotees.
Kanye West has a knack for envisioning trends before they happen, and pushing forth ideas before the world catches on. Perhaps by next Spring, we’ll all be marching to the beat of his drum.
What do you think of his latest?
The alice + olivia Spring 2016 show was a great treat yesterday, but somehow I missed seeing Jamie Chung there! She looked Fall-perfect in a $400 Kayson Draped Poncho and $795 Dae Black Leather Over the Knee Boots from the brand:
Her black and white poncho features a striped print and outsized drape detailing.
Her soft stretch-leather boots feature a close fit, over-the-knee pointed-toe silhouette, and 4.25″ heels.
Very cute!
Get Jamie’s poncho and boots for a splurge here and here.
Thoughts?
Naomie Harris skewed sleek at the Jaguar and Land Rover Stunt Vehicle Event in a David Koma Resort 2016 Black Lace Up Gown:
Naomie stuck to the brand’s simple styling to let the dress play centerstage.
Hot!

Kanye West showed his 2nd collection for Adidas today in New York, and of course loads of stars were in attendance!
His whole family is famous, so they provided enough star power on their own. Throw in a few editors, rappers, and actors and you have a fantastic front row!
Of course Anna Wintour blessed the proceedings in her signature bob and sunglasses. She was seated next to Kim Kardashian, North West, Riccardo Tisci, and Seth Meyers.
Row two was populated by loads of stars as well, including Tyga, Jaden Smith, Fabolous, Kylie Jenner, and Pusha T.
Andre Leon Talley was spied outside.
He later grabbed Kanye backstage to offer some tips.
Jaden Smith chopped it up with Ye backstage, and rocked a Yeezy Season 2 Camo shirt.
Carine Roitfeld offered her congratulations.
Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci followed suit.
Fabolous, 2 Chainz, and Vic Mensa posed with the man of the hour.
Drake and Lorde blessed the proceedings, with Drake in jeans and a custom Roots x OVO jacket.
Kim Kardashian West bet on beige.
Lastly, the Kardashian/Jenner clan posed together. Can we take a moment for North West? She’s adorable!
Looks like it was an amazing group!
Stay tuned for our review of his show in two shakes.
Until then, what do you think?

From Michael Costello:
Inspired by feminine decadence, Costello is merging his bold shapes with a softer and sweeter color palate. “This collection has more movement, leaving more to the imagination,” according to Costello. “It evokes the sexiness of a tight dress with the draping of an elegant gown.”
Gaining recognition as both a brand and designer, Costello chose this collection to unveil brighter gem tones, using the body as contrast. “These dresses make women feel desired and unforgettable,” according to Costello.

Hey Hey!
Though Fashion Week is still going strong, my fashion week ended last night with a “You’ve Got to Be Seen, Green” party at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden, hosted by Solange Knowles and her Saint Heron Family! As you can undoubtedly tell from the title, green garments were required for entry.
Take a look at how guests interpreted the theme:
These three ladies came to slay!!! Editors Rajni Jacques, Shiona Turini, and Nicole Chapoteau dazzled in Halston, Saint Laurent, and Dior. They looked fabulous.
DJ Kitty Cash was adorable in a leaf printed blazer dress and lace up sandals.
WXYZ jewelry designer Laura Wass uplifted a green dress with a bejeweled hat and bag of her design.
I loved artist February James’s $100 dollar bill crop top.
A Kenzo sweater and American Apparel disco pants were the call for this Fashion Student.
A lingerie inspired dress and flats made for the perfect party look.
This guest added a green clutch to a white jumpsuit.
Alan Ferguson supported his wife in a green button down and a denim blazer.
And inside, Solange laughed it up with friend Armina Mussa in Carolina Herrera.
It was a fun night!
As for me, I wore a Topshop olive green romper and Schutz Karlyanna Caged Knee High Sandals.
It has an open back, so I wore a Topshop vest over it with my Givenchy clutch.
This Fashion Week has been the busiest yet! I am pooped!
I’m off to get some rest and get back to blogging.
Which looks did you love from the night?
**The party theme was inspired by the Wiz. This video was playing on the walls all night.
It was a great idea!

I wouldn’t mind a pair!
Would you rock ’em?

Beyonce got in some pool time while on vacation in Italy in a $152 We Are Handsome Striped Panther Scoop Neck One Piece and a $273 Avenger Sheer Printed Cover Up.
Her swimsuit is made in Australia.
Her cover up is crafted from sheer chiffon and has a button front.
Purchase her poolside look below:
Happy Hump Day! For the Janet Jackson stans set to attend her much anticipated world tour, I’ve pulled a few looks together for today’s what to wear request.
Tiara writes, “Help! I am attending Janet Jackson’s Unbreakable World Tour this fall and am having a hard time finding something to wear. The concert is outdoors and I am torn between going casual or wearing heels. I want to be comfortable because it is outdoors and I am sure I will be dancing the entire time. Please help.”
Dress up a slouchy slit tank with a ruched shell skirt.
Add a stylish twist with a printed knit sneaker, a small camel hued clutch, and a chunky gold necklace.
Break out a khaki hued bomber offset by distressed denim shorts and a stretch-knit turtleneck.
Ankle peep toe booties and a camo printed clutch give the look a military chic feel.
Keep it cute and casual in an olive tank with pocket detail and distressed mid-rise jeans.
A comfy sneaker, grey moto jacket, and textured-leather tote complete the look.
Opt for black on black with a dark tank thrown over a pair of ripped high waist cut-offs.
Vamp things up with an oversized biker coat, a leather and lace bra, and an embellished over the knee boot.
And if you want to go for something a little dressier, slip into a pair of distressed white skinny jeans with a double breasted blazer and suede-effect lace-up bodysuit.
A chunky gold necklace, olive suede sandals, and a satin woven box clutch add a metallic touch.
Wishing you a fabulous time at the concert. Which look would you rock?
