Though Fashion Week officially kicks off on September 10th, there are loads of events and presentations happening on the days leading up! June Ambrose attended the Zac Zac Posen Spring 2016 show in a dress by the brand and $895 Brian Atwood Alis Suede Pom Pom Pumps:
Get into those guns. Yes, June!
Her suede dark pink pumps boasts a fun green pom pom at the toe.
I love June and her shoe selections are always so fun.
Hot!

There are no rules in fashion. So the next time someone says something to you about wearing white after Labor Day, roll your eyes and show them a barrage of photos showing exactly what’s happening on the street these days. Among the selects, make sure to slip in Kylie Jenner’s latest all white look: a long sleeve turtleneck and a $495 10 Crosby Derek Lam white belted wrap skirt.
She accessorized with chic pumps, a Birkin, and purple tinged sunnies.
Having recently sat down with the NY Times to talk about her beauty routine in celebration of her to-be-launched beauty and makeover site (the interview itself is very reminiscent of Into the Gloss’s Top Shelf features) the 18-year-old reality star was the picture of minimalism in the look, which she wore to a studio in Van Nuys, California.
The wrap miniskirt has leather trim and 3 buckles for a girly look with an edgy twist.
The belt(and belt embellishment) of the cotton skirt are clearly the look’s draw. While the $495 skirt is sold out in most locations, we did manage to find it on a steep markdown for $297. Act fast!
While we are fans of minimalism, something didn’t sit right with this look on Kylie. The neck of the turtleneck seemed to be doing some slightly weird things fit wise that made it look like she was lacking in that department; could a crewneck have served her more here? In the skirt department, she outshine the model in our honest opinion as her hip to waist ratio gave the look an A-line shape.

A few of you asked for a look for less for Rihanna’s DSquared2 Spring 2016 heels. Frequent commenter Girls Best Friend and Co suggested these fly $218 Jeffrey Campbell’s LevLuv Strappy Heeled Sandals:
The 4 1/2″ heels come in black, blush, and beige.
Wear them with a short dress to show ’em off!
I love ’em! Purchase at FreePeople.com.
How would you wear ’em?
Happy Tuesday!
Remember a few weeks ago when I met up with Orange is the New Black actress Dascha Polanco? Well, we now have video!
The curvaceous vixen and I talked about personal style. She said, “What I think what is important today with curves and with you yourself is confidence. Loving yourself. Accepting your difference. Understanding that that difference doesn’t have to be negative. It can be something very optimistic and positive.”

Yep! Rihanna paired a $198 Reformation Penny Dress in Royal with custom lace up thigh highs from DSquared2’s Spring 2016 collection.
Her fit and flare crepe mini dress has gathered cap sleeves, a V neck, and a wrap skirt.
See a short version of her heels from the brand’s Pre-Fall 2015 collection:
They’re not available for purchase as yet, but you can keep an eye peeled at DSqaured2.com.

Demi Lovato did some sightseeing in Paris in $224 Versace Cat Eye Embellished Limited Edition Sunglasses, $1,430 Lanvin Red Single Button Cardigan, and a $1,150 Saint Laurent Monogramme Lipstick Print Leather Crossbody Bag:
Her cat eye shades feature grey lenses and stud embellishment.
Her red silk-cashmere-blend cardigan boasts a single button closure, deep V neck, long sleeves, and draped detailing.
Her bag features a bold lipstick print, the brand’s signature insignia, an adjustable crossbody strap, top zip closure, and brasstone hardware.
I loved this!

Budweiser’s Made In America 2015 Festival was LIVE! The sold out concert featured a 23-song headlining Beyonce concert on Saturday night with a jam-packed line-up on Sunday with The Weeknd as a headliner. While the real style was definitely worth a gander, when Future took to the stage for a LIT performance rapping about Gucci flip flops, the artist came decked out in a Givenchy Columbian-Carpet Printed Tee along with Givenchy, Hermes and Cartier accessories.
The tee has a ribbed collar and an overall print.
The $885 fit was definitely an eye catcher from the collection and thankfully for the artist, was way more lightweight than pieces like the Saint Laurent Paris bomber worn by G-Eazy, cargo jacket with patches from Vic Mensa and Yeezy for Adidas bomber by The Weeknd.
Pair it with some stacked rings from Cartier, and selects like the $315 Behapi Double Tour green calfskin bracelet from Hermes and we’ve got ourselves a look.

Oh, and if you hadn’t heard from the #FutureHive yet, he did announce that he’d be dropping another album before the end of the year!
So Fashion Bomb photographer Karl Pierre is in Philly for the Made in America Festival, taking pictures of street style for the site!
Take a look at who he captured at the annual music fest:
@AminaChocolate kept cool in a bandeau top, shorts, and a black and white kimono.
@StephieSoSexy threw a piece sign to the camera in a white bikini top and high waisted jeans.
Bikini tops were ubiquitous, as witnessed by @Ann.Wynn, who wore a caged number, sneakers, and a pink hat.
Yes! To @TheNotoriousKia‘s vibrant dashiki! Love it!
@EboisAubin_ kept comfy in a pinstriped jumpsuit.
@ZeritaOfficial tried the fringe trend on for size in a sheer tasseled top and shorts.
Umm…I need @TDotBrooke‘s “Wake up, Be Flawless, Repeat” tee! So cute!
A turban added a chic twist to this tank and shorts combo.
Lastly, I loved this colorful dress and sun shielding hat.
There you have it!
Who had your favorite look?
We hope you enjoy your Labor Day weekends. We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled posts tomorrow!
Smootches!
