It’s so cool when people you see in pictures come to life. I *love* Jourdan Dunn’s British accent and Edward Enninful seems like a down to earth guy. And the girls in general look like so much fun!
Beyonce almost exclusively rocked Casadei pumps during many publicity blitzes for her latest album. It seems Beyonce’s choice inspired Steve Madden to create his interpretation of Casadei’s 3504 Double Platform Pump with his Socialit stiletto:
Despite my bias towards high-end designers, I must say that I like the Steve Madden version more If not for the silver heel, then definitely for the price tag of $110 compared to Casadei’s $630. I think we’ll have to leave the Casadei’s for Bey.
Rihanna was seen recently wearing a cascade of pyramid gold bangles with an acid wash vest and Tom Ford Sunglasse.
Get her jewelry game for less with this $7 Pyramid & Dimpled Bangle Set from Forever 21:
Yes, it took me 11 months and four hours this morning to pick up the little piece of plastic that allows me to live and work legally in Paris!! Because of my morning appointment, Mail Bombs were a tad delayed (my bad). Now we’re ready to go!

Lastly, Whitney says, “I was wondering if you could give me a little inspiration for a nice outdoor concert fit? En Vogue is performing this weekend and I want to find something that has a funky diva vibe to it. Thanks!”
For an outdoor concert, I’d recommend mixing a sequin or graphic print tunic top with dark jeans or leggings. Go for comfort in cute flat sandals, and bring along a jacket for nighttime chill:
That does it!
I’m going to enjoy my new French resident status. Ah, what to do?
Bisous!
Today’s style inspiration offers a golden mixture of casual and chic:
The gold peep toes offer a dash of sauce, while the liberal fit of the top and shorts are laid back yet lovely. Add a cool shade of gold nail polish, a bangle, and a statement bag for gilded style:
