I’d recommend wearing as much protective sun gear as possible! I would’ve brought a hat had I known. But for the day, I shielded my eyes in my Dior So Real silver shades.
I later caught up with the guys from Street Etiquette, who are doing some pretty amazing things with the Open as well.
Take a look at a few shots they did for an editorial for the US Open titled, ‘Sibling Rivalry.’
They’re so talented, don’t you agree? You can see the rest of their shots @StreetEtiquette.
At any rate, it was a fun day!

Janelle Monae, Jidenna, and more popped by 2Chainz’s mixtape release party last night in Atlanta. For the night, Janelle slipped on a black and white geometric boydcon and $1,178 Aquazzura Queen sandals:
Red lips and a hat completed her look.
Her sandals are fashioned out of multicolored leather, boasting red and silver tones and shiny disc embellishments.
I own these sandals, but haven’t figured out a way to wear ’em. Ms. Monae is giving me a few ideas!
Get her heels at FarFetch.com.
Thoughts on her look?
*Jidenna was in the building, looking very dapper.
Today’s Bombshell is Tshego from Johannesburg, South Africa:
She says, “My style is very simple, trendy and effortless.”
” I try to personalize trends and make them work for my personality.”
” Looking good is very pricy, but I always manage to make up outfits by sourcing interesting garments from all kinds of stores.”
” It’s not about the price tag but how you wear the outfit that makes it memorable.”
Your style is simple and effortless. Bombshell!

I don’t even know where to begin with today’s Bomb Blogger! I mean, I’ve been a loyal follower since my college days and I’ve watched this young woman evolve on so many levels. From her wildly successful YouTube channel to her mastery of minimal styling, Shirley B. Eniang is a force to be reckoned with.
Shirley is a style maven that wear many hats. She blogs on a plethora of topics including beauty, fashion and even life. Her bubbly personality and effortless grace have even garnered her a spot amongst my favorite bloggers ever.

And, her personal style is jaw-dropping! Shirley’s primary fashion objective rests upon the idea of simplicity. She expertly pairs closet staples while also adding her on unique twist within every look. Miss Eniang’s go-to pieces include black strappy heels, neutral palettes and the perfect pair of fitted high-waisted jeans.
How amazing is her Olivia Pope-inspired lookbook?! (see below)

In a recent interview regarding RiRi, her newest fragrance, Rihanna hinted at the creation of her own beauty line, Fenty Beauty. No details on what products her beauty collection would include or a release date, but it certainly sounds extra exciting. Given her successful partnership with MAC, it looks like Ms. Fenty is ready to step out on her own. (Refinery29)

Too Street for Bond?! Right, that is the phrase that had Idris Elba fans everywhere outraged on social media this week. Anthony Horowitz, the writer behind the new James Bond novel, said that Idris Elba was “probably a bit too street for Bond,” a statement Twitter fans took to mean “too black.” Horowitz has since apologized for his comments.
