This ensemble offers the perfect mix of chic and edgy and the polka dot pumps are a sweet touch. I especially love how she popped the collar on her blazer. But isn’t there an unwritten rule that says that toes and fingernails must be painted the same color if baring both? Hmmm?
What do you think?
If you’re loving the look, here’s the recessionista version:
A few our our favorite fashionista’s swirled on the red carpet for last night’s CFDA Fashion Awards.
Were they hot? Or did they make you go hmmm….
Zoe Saldana looked chic and stunning in a gray Calvin Klein resort 2010 dress. The off shoulder style adds a dash of sauce to a somewhat demure frock, and her glittering accessories make the look certifiably hot!
Kerry Washington also chose gray for the event, stunting in a floor length v-neck dress by Doo Ri Chung. Though the design is somewhat simple, Kerry manages to make it look elegant with stud earrings and a sleek hairstyle. Hot!
Designer Rachel Roy was also at hand for the event in a one shoulder embellished dress set off by black sandals and make-a-statement black earrings. Rachel is undeniably beautiful, but her poor posture messes the whole look up for me…hmmm
Fellow designer Tracy Reese made a rare appearance in a tea length floral dress worn with embellished accessories. Tracy tends to dress down, so she gets a hot for stepping up and out in fabulous makeup and a killer outfit!
Vuitton’s favorite runway model Georgie Baddiel came as designer Phillip Lim’s date in a cropped light gray tuxedo and champagne ruffle top. Beautiful girl, but perhaps she needs to go take a Tyra crash course in ‘dressing like a model off the runway.’ She’s still new to the scene, so she gets a pass. We’ll keep an eye out, however, hmmm…
Rounding out our rundown is beauty Liya Kebede who seems to have wore a lacy bandeau bra underneath a plunging patterned wrap dress. Perhaps she got dressed too quickly, but this looks get a rare hmm…we’ve seen Liya in much better!
Welcome to yet another Beauty Tuesday with a feature by Eileen on summer hair removal. Whether you wax, shave, or Nair, Eileen’s got you covered!
***************************************************************************** Hey Beauty Bombers!!
Summer temps mean that very soon we’ll be baring it all….
…and who wants to get caught out there with unsightly stubble?
Check out these hair removal solutions: products you can use in the comfort of your home to guarantee a smooth summer look!
If you like the ease of a razor you’ll need a foamy shaving gel to make sure you get the closest shave possible. Lippmann Collection’s Did I Shave My Legs For This? can be used on any body part so you can start getting ready for the beach!
After shaving, exfoliate for a smoother finish with a scrub or body polish like True Blue Spa In The Buff Body Polish ($17.50, www.bbw.com) to get rid of dead skin.
If you’re more into crème hair removers, try the super affordable Sally Hansen Naturally Bare Crème Hair Remover for Body.
It works in as little as 3 minutes and has a rich and creamy formula with honey, chamomile, lemon & soy!
If you would rather wax-on and wax-off, try Completely Bare Ouch-Less Strip-Less Wax ($22, www.competelybare.com).
It’s easy to use and is excellent for any type of skin! It adheres to hair, not skin, so it’s even safe for people with sensitive skin or those who have a history of allergic reactions.
For post-waxing or shaving relief, try SOS Post-Waxing Oil by Yves Rocher to instantly ease redness, eliminate residue wax and soothe your skin.
Also, for our NYC bombshells, swing by the 54th & 5th flagship store location at 10:30am for a chance to peep the clothes and meet designers Patrick Robinson, Alexander Wang, Albertus Swanepoel and Vena Cava’s Lisa Maycock and Sophie Buhai.
The dress is unique, different…very Rihanna. Unfortunately the price is also very Rihanna at $1,114. Yowza.

Not convinced? Save on the rest of her outfit with these:
Apparently our Style File subject Lala has jumped on the shaved side train, even taking the look a step further by adding a few clean lines into the mix.
Kelis brought the edge, Cassie softened the spark, and now Lala makes the look super trendy.
What do you think bombshells? Is the look edgy or are you over it?
