Who doesn’t love an exquisite gold platform and between Nicki Minaj and Angela White aka Blac Chyna, we can’t get over the Balmain ‘Ava’ braided metallic platform that we’ve recently caught both celebs rocking.
The platform which retails for $2,950 and originated in Italy, has embossed detailing with an open toe chunky ankle strap back zipper to ease the leather sole.
We first spotted the Trinidadian-born rapper Nicki Minaj in the ultra chic Balmain sandals while shooting her “Red Ruby Da Sleeze” video shoot which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs chart.
Taking a resort approach, Nicki wore a black cutout swimsuit and a floral Kimono, accessorizing with Gold statement bangles that made her look all the merrier. Stay tune for Nicki Minaj upcoming collaboration with Kim Petras on a single entitled, “Alone” on the 21st of this month.
Nicki’s stunt double Blac Chyna chose to take a different direction while sporting the same Gold Balmain platforms. For her appearance on Fox News, the model and actress slayed in a peach House of CB body-con midi dress.
Blac Chyna who is currently focused on rebranding herself, recently revealed that she has a Doctorate Degree in Theology from Sacramento Theological Seminary and Bible College which she proved through a certificate she posted on social media.
We’re here for the positive transformation that she’s undertaking however some people have argued that it could potentially be a PR stunt and that if she’s seriously considering a new start with being called Angela White that she should fully drop her alter ego name, Blac Chyna.

Easter came early this year and celebs were in full bloom to celebrate the Resurrection Sunday. One celebrity in particular who’s making major headlines for her Easter glam shoot is no other than Angela White.
Formerly known as Blac Chyna, Angela White looked breathtaking in a form fitting corset gown by designer Lena Berisha. The elegant and enchanting gown felt dreamy and ethereal and let’s just say this is a great look for Angela, who’s set to play Halle Berry in the infamous B.A.P.S play that will debut on Mother’s Day Weekend.
Along with Angela, Real Housewife of Atlanta star Kenya Moore also looked pretty in pink for Easter in a fuchsia Cult Gaia dress with her adorable daughter, Brooklyn Daly. There’s no doubt that Kenya was gone-with-the-wind fabulous, and her white clear Louboutin stilettos we’re the perfect addition.

Contrary to wearing a gown, Ludacris wife, Eudoxie kept it chic for Easter in a Pink monochromatic Remain two-piece ensemble that included a $210 cardigan and $210 pants. Her rose colored Hermes bag was the topping on the cake and we love how she kept her hair slicked back in a braided pony-tail because it felt very sleek like the brands model.
Stepping away from the pink trend was style Icon June Ambrose who opted for a muted blue tone. The stylist to the stars was caught sashaying on Easter in a SS22 double breasted Acne suit that felt current and on season. Her statement ‘Khia Tullae’ bunny ears hat that she has in numerous colors felt more appropriate than ever on Easter Sunday.

Another celeb to turn heads on Easter Sunday was Kylie Jenner who wore a vintage sage green $4,331 Jean Paul Gaultier ribbed knit maxi dress. She kept it simple with a natural beat and we’re happy to see the Kyle Cosmetics founder tapping into her modern femininity era.
A night out at the casino is a great way to enjoy your evening, and it’s also a good excuse to get out your best clothes and get dressed to impress. While not every casino has a dress code, a lot of places that are more exclusive will only let patrons in if they’re following the right code. Before you start planning your night, it’s a good idea to find out if there is a policy on what clothes you can wear.
In this article, we’ll help you put together your best outfit for an exciting and fun casino night. You don’t have to break the bank, so you’ll still have plenty left over to try out at the blackjack table. If you’re completely new to the game, you might want to try out a blackjack simulator first, as this will help you learn the rules before you play for real money.
Casino Dress Code
A lot of land-based casinos have a dress code, as they want to encourage classier and more respectable players. This is particularly the case for the exclusive and fancy casinos that are more suited to high rollers. You don’t need to bet big to enter, but you will need to follow a certain dress code. The last thing you want to do is turn up wearing something that is completely inappropriate for the venue, so it’s always important to plan ahead.
You can find out if a casino has a dress code by looking up the website. You’ll normally find all the important information here, as well as pictures that will give you an idea of what you should wear. If you’re struggling to find any details of a dress code, there likely isn’t one, but you can always send an email or give them a call just to be sure.
Finding Inspiration
Once you know your dress code and the style of clothes you’re expected to wear, you can take a look at some other blackjack players for inspiration. You can find plenty of images using sites like Pinterest, and it’s also a good idea to watch examples in movies and TV too. Famous blackjack scenes in cinema Rainman, Austin Powers and The Hangover, each giving you a completely different aesthetic.
Outside of the big screen, there have been plenty of games of blackjack played on TV, too, such as when agent Dale Cooper plays against Jacques Renault while investigating a murder. Cooper wears a tuxedo in this scene, and it’s a great choice if you want to look your best while playing cards.
A New Outfit?
You may already have the perfect outfit waiting for you in your wardrobe, in which case you’re already set. However, if you don’t have anything suitable that fits your inspiration and the dress code, it’s time to start planning your new outfit.
When deciding on what to wear for your night at the blackjack table, start out with your budget. How much do you want to spend on your night out, and how important is this outfit to you? Your budget will affect what kind of clothes you can wear but don’t forget that you can buy second-hand or even rent an outfit to save costs.
Getting Fitted
For best results, you always want to make sure that your outfit fits perfectly. If you’re choosing clothes second-hand, it can be difficult to find something that fits well, especially if you’re particularly tall. However, it can’t be overstated just how important it is that your clothes are tailored and measured out properly.
If you’re opting for a brand-new suit and tuxedo, we recommend getting your clothes fitted by a professional who will be able to make sure you look your best. You can also take your second-hand clothes to a tailor, as they’ll be able to make small adjustments to help it fit.
