Even though the legislation was passed about a week ago, according to Beyonce it’s “Never Too Late!” The singer showed her support for the recent marriage equality roll out with a short re-taping of her viral 7/11 video.
In the clip, amongst other things, she wore a Wild Fox Couture Ombre Malibu One Piece bathing suit and a VFILES Sport Plus Green and Black Girl Power Jersey.
Take a look:
The Wildfox Couture suit is an 80s inspired one-piece cut high on the hip. On the runway, the collection was “Malibu Barbie” themed and the Malibu part definitely comes through here. What you can’t see here is it sports a beautifully low scoop back that is the perfect surprise when people watch you leave.
Need the piece yourself? Cop it for $91 right now!
One of her other looks we loved was a simple Girl Power jersey from the VFILES Sport Plus line that debuted this past February at New York Fashion Week. The shirt comes with a white t-shirt underlayer and is just a subtle reminder that Queen Bey is a feminist.
Today’s Bomb Blogger heads the fashion destination known as My White T. Aside from taking street style pics and writing, she even manages to juggle a career as a singer and beauty curator. Style maven Jessi Malay is the epitome of chic and her effortless, cool-girl style has landed her a spot in our weekly feature.
My discovery of Jessi came about after an intense Instagram binge. I can’t tell you the exact account that led me to find her but, one thing is true, I’m glad I did! Of course, curiosity struck and I researched her a little more: not only did I happen upon her beautiful blog but I also located some of her musical work here.
This fashionista loves her neutrals, lots of fringe, sultry footwear and even eye-catching prints. Her knack for layering is also notable as is her enviable sunnies collection. Jessi certainly knows what fits her style objective and she easily executes every look. Side note: Doesn’t she rock a mean crop top!?
Slay on, hun!

Misty Copeland has made history as the first African-American principal dancer at the American Ballet Theater. The 32-year-old ballerina said at a news conference at the Metropolitan Opera House, “I had moments of doubting myself, and wanting to quit, because I didn’t know that there would be a future for an African-American woman to make it to this level…At the same time, it made me so hungry to push through, to carry the next generation. So it’s not me up here — and I’m constantly saying that — it’s everyone that came before me that got me to this position.” Congrats, Misty! (BBC; NYTimes)
After tapping Maxwell Osbourne and Dao Yi-Chow as the new designers for her DKNY brand, Donna Karan has decided to leave her own Donna Karan label. The departure will signal a suspension of the main line with many speculating the brand will be soon rolled into DKNY. Karan herself will focus on her Urban Zen company. One has to wonder whether that New York Times interview where she spoke poorly of her relationship with LVMH had something to do with this. (InStyle)
Have you not gotten a chance to see the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s “China: Through the Looking Glass” exhibit? Well you’re getting more time. The museum is extending the show through September 7th, as the show drew more than 350,000 visitors in the first two months, putting it in the same realm as the “Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty” exhibit.

Dear Marc Jacobs, there is a right and a wrong way to send nudes. Sending them over Instagram is quite generally the wrong way. The designer learned that rule first hand when he reportedly attempted to send a nude photo through Instagram direct messaging to a follower. Clearly still learning the platform, the photo went into the main stream and was pulled down within a few seconds. But we all know the internet; a screenshot lives on to tell the tale. Of course the link is NSFW. (Gawker)
Though they are working on collaborations with Carine Roitfeld and Balmain, H&M has another project on the horizon. The company is reportedly adding a new business to it’s portfolio which will join brands like & Other Stories, COS and Cheap Monday. While it won’t launch until 2017, execs say that it will be nothing like H&M or the brands it already owns. (Bloomberg)
