Last night, besties Rihanna and Melissa Forde were spotted courtside at Game One of the NBA Finals. The stylish duo looked rocker chic in coordinating black ensembles and were all smiles throughout the epic (and lengthy) match.

RiRi’s ‘fit caught my eye though – the songstress uplifted a pair of $2,950 Tom Ford Over-the-Knee Napa Stretch Boots, an oversized Acne leather jacket and her fave $1,295 Dominic Louis x Mandy Coon Leather Bunny Backpack. Sidenote: Hey Magic Johnson!

Her signature leather jacket is currently sold out but you can find similar alternatives here and here.

To add a quirky fix to her look, the bad gal also donned a black Dominic Louis x Mandy Coon leather bunny backpack. The bag features adjustable shoulder straps and a zip fastening. If you’re up for the splurge, check out additional details here.

But, my absolute FAVORITE part of this oufit are the ever-so-gorgeous Tom Ford boots! These leather stunners house a 4.5 inch heel, gold hardware and a full-length back zipper. If I could afford the price tag, I would definitely consider dropping a few coins! A girl can dream, right? Lol! Purchase them here.

 

Overall, I liked this! It was casual, cool and sexy.

Go, Ri!

So apparently Chris Brown and Karrueche had an explosive incident at Playhouse last night.
Even with all the drama, Karrueche kept it cute in a former Bomb Product of the Day: Nasty Gal’s $128 Tie the Knot Lace Up Dress.

She kept to her high/low aesthetic, finishing her dress off with Giuseppe Zanotti brown buckled sandals.

Her dress has a tie up front.

Her strappy sandals have a gladiator feel.

Her sandals are sold out, but you can still get her dress in a small or medium at NastyGal.com.

• In a new discrimination suit against Zara, a former employee says senior staff “exchanged racist emails, including emails portraying Michelle Obama serving fried chicken and emails depicting Barack Obama in a Ku Klux Klan hood, with a Confederate flag, on a Cream of Wheat box, on an Aunt Jemima box, and shining shoes.” In addition to this, the employee alleges that he was personally discriminated against for being gay and Jewish and is asking for $40 million in damages.

• Even though the womenswear version of New York Fashion Week lost Mercedes Benz and hasn’t announced an automotive sponsor replacement, the first iteration of New York Fashion Week: Men’s has signed Cadillac as theirs. For at least the first two seasons, Cadillac will join the likes of Shinola, Amazon Fashion, and Dreamworks as sponsors for the event. Certain attendees will be shuttled through the brand’s vehicles. (Complex UK)

• Andreja Pejic furthers the trans movement with another high profile campaign. For her latest outing, the Aussie model fronts a new stream of images and videos from Make Up For Ever. Along with Jamie Chung, Pejic got her own make-up palette, designed just for her. (People Style Watch)

• As an update on the developing Tony Award’s story we’ve been tracking for two weeks: Anna Wintour isn’t the only fashion name attached to the festivities this year. American Theatre Wing chair William Ivey Long, who is instrumental in the awards, admitted that the late Joan Rivers ended up having a lot of influence on this ongoing transition to make the event gain in popularity. But amongst the living, editors from Teen Vogue and Vanity Fair as well as the team at KCD have assisted in styling about 130 attendees. The show will appear on CBS Sunday. (Fashionista)

• If you can’t afford Victoria Beckham’s clothes, she’s thinking about you.  In a recent interview, the star said “I would love to do something like an H&M collaboration. I’d like to work on clothing pricing and I’d like to reach more people, and I would like to offer clothes to people who don’t want to pay designer prices. I want to reach out to that customer.” Though she has been approached with the opportunity with before, she said it’s only now that it’s the right opportunity. (StyleBlazer)

 

It’s Friday (throws confetti, hits the dougie!).
Let’s set our day off with Fashion Bomber Tyrone from Washington, D.C.

He says, “ I am a graduating senior at Howard University in Washington, DC.“

“I would describe my style as edgy preppy.”


” I love wearing suits with sneakers and t-shirts.”


” I go from colorful attire to monochromatic.”


” My style is versatile and easy to wear, and is typically great for “day to night” wear.”




Awesome! I love that colorful shot!

Alessandro Michele’s latest collection for Gucci—his second for the iconic Italian fashion house—was reminiscent of a few former fashion eras that felt a bit bizarre when compared with the brand’s assortments of the past few years. Naturally, there’s nothing fashion loves more than designs that seem a bit out of place: quirk and whimsy are the things street style snaps and highly-liked Instagram posts are made of in this modern age.

The retro inspiration and creativity here were heavy, though there was a healthy helping of modernity to go along with them both. The pieces were incredibly ornamental and sometimes offbeat including pom pom-accented lace-up pumps, lace-laden button-front cardigans, zigzag print suits, berets paired with sheer tunics, and hippie chic lace maxi dresses with bell sleeves and allover floral embroidery.

At times, the wares had a downright nerdy flair. A pink suit for the gents that seemed to emerge straight out of an 80’s film, oversized square tortoise shell glasses accompanied by a prim and proper shirtdress, fringe-accented loafers with functional block heels, and smart button-front shirt and trouser combinations were all on display.

A girlish tinge shined through with a wispy tiered gown cinched at the waist with a rosette-embellished belt, a pink quilted coat with fur cuffs, flower and insect-embroidered toppers, and sheer pleated skirts. A printed fur-collared coat felt very Margot Tenenbaum, while a bubblegum pink fur skirt suit was one of the collection’s most impractical looks, but sugary sweet from start to finish.

Colors were fiery and vibrant including mustard, teal, fuchsia, baby blue, and more.

Lace injected romance by way of sheer camisoles, a sheer long-sleeve LBD, a knee-length full-skirted frock that was among the most demure of the designs at hand, and a collared shirt dress that was too short for the office, but could easily work for a night out or a cocktail party.

There was a whole lot of grandiosity present and though it wasn’t for the faint of heart, it was refreshing to see from Gucci. Michele has only been at the design helm for two seasons and the brand couldn’t look more different than it did under Frida Giannini. I think I can speak for many in the industry when I say I’m excited to see how his reign at the fashion house develops.

Are you feeling the latest from Gucci?
