The Reality TV star turned Lawyer, was captured in an all white halter dress with matching pantaleggings, which has become a signature staple for the Spanish brand.
Kim, who’s beginning to resemble her mother Kris as she evolves, looked like a modern day Marilyn Monroe with her short curly hairdo that was complimented with black pins and exuded glamour and femininity.
Her all black rectangular shades gave a retro vibe, and when it came down to her fabulous beat, she looked sun kissed with a subtle smokey shadow, rose blush and fierce nude lip.
Kim gave the perfect amount of sex-appeal without revealing too much. It’s always a great idea to leave a little to the imagination, especially when you’re high in demand.

After just celebrating Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez Bezos wedding in Italy last month, Usher and his boo Jennifer Goicoechea have been spotted shopping in Portofino.
Usher looked classical and refined in a navy knitted top that he paired with white trousers, and designer sneakers. Jennifer kept things casual with a wife beater tank that she styled with light blue denim jeans that were embellished with rhinestones and cutouts. Her sandals featured a colorful abstract print, and her wrist was dripping in Cartier.
While Goicoechea kept her accessories to a minimum, Usher on the other hand was captured carrying a Toilet and Barenia leather Hermès bag. Retailing for upwards $15,000, the Haut à courroies bag is the Maison’s first ever bag, complimented with trapezoidal lines, and the perfect amount of functionality.
In recent times, we begin to see more men celebrities donning “murses” (the men version of purses) including Pharell Williams, Colman Domingo and Lebron James.
In fact, similarly to Usher, Lebron James was also photographed carrying the exact same Hermes handbag in orange togo leather with gold hardware. Contrary to Ushers comfortability, Lebron who is know for his strong muscular physique on the court, looked a tad bit self conscious holding his murse. He still however was smiling, reminding us of the importance of “faking it till you make it.”
As fashion becomes more gender-neutral, we will start to see more unisex accessories and clothing on the runways. In the next few decades, who’s to say that we’ll even have a men’s and women’s department. The times are changing, and the evolution of fashion and style isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
You ask, we answer! Instagram user @msfendi226 wanted to know, “Who is she wearing?” after Ari Lennox hit the stage at Essence Fest in a sultry look, perfect for showcasing her shea butter legs.
The R&B songstress lit up the Superlounge in a $120 Kristena bodysuit by Oh Polly, featuring a vibrant red print and striking cutout details that perfectly highlighted her curves and signature confidence.
Ari has long been celebrated for pairing her powerhouse vocals with head-turning fashion, and this performance was no exception. The fitted silhouette and fiery color made the look ideal for a high-energy concert moment, while her effortless glam and commanding stage presence took it to the next level. It was a moment that fans—and fashion lovers—won’t soon forget.
Curious where to shop the look? You can find a link to purchase the exact bodysuit here. Whether you’re planning your next girls’ night or looking to elevate your concert wardrobe, Ari’s outfit delivers major style inspo.
Cardi B made a stylish splash in Paris while promoting her latest single, “Outside.” The chart-topping rapper turned heads as she greeted fans in the fashion capital, effortlessly blending music and couture during her European promo run.
Fans gathered around as Cardi posed for photos and shared smiles, showing her usual mix of glam and approachability. With her single climbing the charts, this Paris appearance was a perfect blend of promotional power and fashion-forward finesse.
Day 1 at Essence Fest felt like a reunion—where you reconnect with familiar faces and the cultural icons who shaped your world. I started the weekend at a brunch hosted by Bevy Smith and H&M, with guests like Tisha Campbell and Living Single stars Erika Alexander and Kim Coles, who just launched a new podcast, Re-Living Single. It was a full-circle moment that reminded me why that show still resonates: it’s smart, funny, and ahead of its time.
Shows like Living Single weren’t just entertaining—they showed what was possible. Watching confident, career-driven Black women on screen helped shape my vision and, in many ways, inspired my move to New York and the creation of Fashion Bomb Daily. That kind of visibility matters. It plants seeds and opens doors.
After the brunch, I stopped by the Convention Center to explore the booths and take in the style. One standout was Camille Rose Naturals. Their setup was beautiful, and the product line was just as impressive—rich textures, clean ingredients, and a strong sense of identity. Be sure to stop by today for free samples and $10 products all weekend long!
It was a great example of what makes Essence Fest unique: it’s a space where culture and commerce meet on our terms.
I’ll be out and about in New Orleans again today—if you see me in my new BWT Good Hair wig, feel free to say hi. Essence Fest is just getting started, and the energy is unmatched.
“She’s an icon, she’s a legend, and she is the moment”
HOW YOU DOING? Because by the looks of it, Wendy Williams is doing perfectly fine, and she’s beginning to look like her old self again.
If you’ve been following the legendary talk host in recent months, then you know she’s been battling her court-ordered guardianship with Sabrina Morrissey, who manages her well being and finances. Williams has expressed her lack of autonomy to do as she pleases, which has ensued a “Free Wendy”movement with her fans protesting on behalf of her freedom.
As someone who has been described as “incapacitated,” she sure doesn’t look like it, and the media personality was recently captured all smiles with her entourage in New York City.
Wendy kept things sporty chic in a cream printed bomber jacket, with black silk shorts that she layered over fishnet stockings, designed by Mel Maxi. Quintessential of New York’s fashion, she donned a black Yankee’s ball cap, and sported black studded sneakers by Christian Louboutin. In true Wendy fashion, she looked ultra stylish with her black crocodile $80,000 Hermes handbag that delightfully hung off her arm.
Of course fans were happy to see her out and about, and on the go, without her niece Alex Fannie coming to her rescue. On our Fashion Bomb daily Instagram page, @Prettyliilbyrdie shared, “I need her back on her show and speaking on Hot Topics neeoooooow!” while @yup_itsbri commented. “The way they said this lady was on her last leg. They really lied. She looks and sounds good.”
We hope that seeing Wendy in such a great state, is an indicator of what’s to come. We’d love to see her back on the radio or on television and in her element, and if not on those channels, perhaps even Youtube. One thing for sure is that she hasn’t loss her fan base, and if anything, her setback has been a catalyst for more people to rally behind her.
During the 90’s, Brandy and Monica’s hit single “The Boy is Mine“ became a cultural phenomena topping the Billboard Hot 100 charts for 13-weeks, and now after 26-years, the R&B singers are going on tour together.
This will be their first co-headlining tour together from October to December, and include special performances by Kelly Rowland, Jamal Roberts, and Muni Long. While promoting their upcoming tour on Sirius XM, the ladies mirrored each other in blue denim ensembles.
Monica, who is known for her incredible fashion sense, illuminated in a blue denim Balenciaga look that had white stripes down the sides of her jacket and cargo jeans. She styled her outfit with a black mesh top that showcased her bra, and accessorized with black Balenciaga handbag, and black satin stilettos. Her clear ombre shades, gave us 90’s vibes, creating excitement for what’s to come.
Similarly to Monica, Brandy also opted for a lighter version of denim on denim by Alexander Wang. She kept her jacket fully buttoned up, and her silver metallic pumps were complimentary to her straight leg jeans.
After all these years, it’s great to finally see Brandy and Monica put their differences aside to reunite and use their platform to entertain fans. With such a timeless song like “The Boy is Mine,” attendees will definitely be in for a treat.

Gone are the days when “casual” meant “sloppy.” These days, even your weekend style should have a polished appearance. Fortunately, looking good doesn’t require wearing a three-piece suit or spending hours in front of the mirror. With a few smart pieces, like well-fitted men’s dress shirts paired with comfortable bottoms, you can create relaxed and refined weekend looks for any occasion.
A successful weekend wardrobe starts with quality basics that fit like they should. Instead of traditional men’s dress pants, consider chinos in neutral hues like navy, olive, or khaki. These versatile bottoms pair with just about everything while offering more structure than sweatpants. Quality denim is a solid option, too. Try tailored joggers with a tapered leg and clean lines for a more relaxed but still put-together look. Look to industry professionals like Men’s Wearhouse to learn more about styling chinos as a wardrobe staple.
Pay close attention to the fit—you should have room to move, but your pants shouldn’t sag or bunch excessively. A straight or slightly tapered leg creates a clean silhouette that looks intentional.
2. Upgrade Your Casual Tops
The humble t-shirt has its place, but men’s button-up shirts provide an instant style upgrade without sacrificing comfort. Look for casual button-ups in breathable fabrics like Oxford cloth, chambray, or lightweight flannel that feel relaxed yet refined.
The beauty of these shirts is their versatility. Wear them buttoned with the sleeves rolled up for a polished aesthetic or open over a plain t-shirt for a layered casual look. Stick with solid colors or minimalist patterns that pair easily with multiple bottoms.
3. Master the Art of Layering
Layering adds dimension to any outfit while keeping you comfortable as the temperature fluctuates throughout the day. The trick is keeping it simple and coordinated.
A well-fitted lightweight jacket, cardigan, or blazer can transform dress pants and a casual shirt into something much more thoughtful. Choose pieces in complementary colors that work with multiple items in your wardrobe.
In cooler weather, a Merino wool sweater worn over a button-up with the collar peeking out creates an effortlessly stylish look. Just make sure your layers don’t compete with each other. Stick with complementary colors, and blend varying textures for visual interest.
4. Focus on Footwear
Shoes can make or break a weekend outfit. While sneakers are weekend staples, not all are created equal. When you want to look your best, opt for clean, minimalist styles in leather or suede to elevate—rather than detract from—your outfit.
For a slightly more polished option, consider leather loafers or Chukka boots. These options hit the sweet spot between overly casual athletic shoes and formal dress shoes.
Whatever footwear you choose, keep them clean and in good condition. Nothing undermines a thoughtful outfit faster than scuffed, dirty shoes.
5. Embrace Texture and Fabric
Introducing different textures into your weekend wardrobe adds visual interest without bold patterns or colors. Consider a textured knit sweater, a chambray button-up shirt, or twill pants to create subtle depth in your outfit.
Quality fabrics make a massive difference in how casual clothes look and feel. Natural fibers like cotton, wool, and linen generally look more refined than synthetic materials while offering better breathability and comfort.
6. Nail the Color Coordination
Creating cohesive weekend outfits is simpler when you build around a consistent color palette. But that doesn’t mean everything should be a perfect match. Instead, aim for colors that complement each other.
Start with a foundation of neutrals like navy, gray, olive, beige, and white. These colors work together harmoniously and pair with anything. Once you have your neutral base, introduce subtle pops of color with accessories.

For example, pairing navy pants with a light blue shirt and tan shoes creates a cohesive, pleasing palette that does not appear dull or overly coordinated.
7. Pay Attention to Fit and Proportion
Nothing ruins a weekend look faster than a poor fit. Even the most casual outfits look better when the proportions are right, so making sure your clothes don’t cling or sag is essential.
Modern weekend style leans toward a clean silhouette. Think slim (not skinny) pants, properly fitted shirts with sleeves that hit the right point on your arm, and tops that don’t billow around your midsection.
8. Incorporate Thoughtful Accessories
The right accessories elevate your weekend style without looking like you’re trying too hard. A nice watch, leather belt, or simple bracelet adds a polished touch to even the most casual outfit. Sunglasses, too, can refine a weekend look. Stick with classic styles like wayfarers or aviators in proportions that flatter your face shape.
No matter what accessories you choose, the key here is restraint. Choose one or two that complement your outfit rather than competing with it.
9. Develop a Signature Style Element
A signature style element helps you create a cohesive aesthetic across all your outfits. Yours could be as simple as rolling the sleeves of your button-up shirts in a particular way, consistently wearing a specific type of watch, or favoring a certain collar style. Just make sure it is something you genuinely enjoy wearing or doing. Your signature style element should be authentic—not forced.

10. Invest in Quality
Putting together effortless weekend styles is easier with a few high-quality pieces rather than countless mediocre ones. Invest in well-made bottoms that maintain their shape, shirts with clean stitching, and shoes constructed to last. These pieces cost more initially but require less frequent replacement and always look better than their cheaper counterparts.
Quality basics are also easy to mix and match, allowing you to create several outfits from a relatively small collection of garments—the ultimate goal of effortless weekend style.
Closing Thoughts
Spending your weekends in style doesn’t require an extensive or complicated wardrobe. With these straightforward approaches, you can create a comfortable and refined weekend wardrobe, proving that looking good doesn’t have to be hard work.
We’ve officially made it through half of 2025! With the Fourth of July being tomorrow, and the holiday season just five months away, 2026 will be here in no time, along with our annual FABY’s.
The BET awards kicked off the month of June in extraordinary way, and with stars jetting off to on their Summer escapades, the stylish looks were in full rotation.
From Tisha Campbell’s fierce burgundy leather dress on the BET red carpet, to Tyler Perry looking ultra luxurious off the Mediterranean coast, and Teyana Taylor fashionably boo’d up, check out who made it to our “Top 5” best dressed list.
Tyler Perry delivered an exceptional speech at this year BET awards, and during the month of June he was captured vacationing aboard a mega-yacht with Bryan Tanaka. When it came down to his outfit, Perry kept things on theme in a Dolce & Gabbana shell-print silk set with a straw fedora, that couldn’t be more fitting for the lavish getaway.
Gina hasn’t loss one beat since her Martin days, and if we didn’t know any better, we’d say she’s aging backwards. On the BET red carpet- she looked absolutely incredible in a rich maroon leather dress by Anthony Latimore that was styled by J.Bolin. From her burgundy hair color to her dress fitting like a glove, Tisha Campbell looked like a true work of art.
Iman WHO? Teyana Taylor once told us “the wait wasn’t punishment, but preparation,” and perhaps her latest relationship is a testament of just that. The “Rose in Harlem” singer was photographed all month long boo’d up with her British boyfriend Aaron Pierre. The duo are the couple we didn’t know we needed. Teyana Taylor also looks the happiest we’ve seen her, and she showed out at the BET awards in a white Jagne dress that screamed perfection.
Kim Kardashian was spotted with her mini me North West on a Yacht off Mexico celebrating North’s birthday. Kim served modern sex appeal in a Skims body suit that she layered with a snakeskin long sleeve top. Contrary to Kim, North West who is now towering over her mom, looked innovative in a cobalt blue top that she paired with blue denim stripe shorts. Her turquoise hair was on brand for the rising star who like her father, isn’t afraid to step outside the box.
Just when we thought the month of June couldn’t get any more stylish, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky were captured all around Paris in some of the hottest looks. On one occasion, RiRi was photographed holding her youngest son Riot in a AGWE ensemble with a yellow Dior bag by Jonathan Anderson. Baby Riot, who is a spitting image of Rihanna’s late father, looked edgy in a black Moto jacket with Vans, reminding us that he’s the next “Fashion Killa” in line to take the throne.
