Kendrick Lamar wears Virgil Abloh’s x Louis Vuitton FW22 Suit and Tiffany & Co. Jewelry For Superbowl Halftime Performance

We have to admit the Superbowl LVl was an amazing match between the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals. We must give a standing ovation for halftime performances that took place, along with the looks the performers took pride in. Let’s get into Kendrick Lamar‘s look:

Kendrick Lamar had a very powerful meaning behind his ensemble he wore for his performance for the halftime show. The sophisticated, black toned suit was a Virgil Abloh x Louis Vuitton collaboration. This was the designers final collection.

You can see the blazer is fitted and featured with broad shoulder pads. Pairing the blazer with perfectly tailored trousers, the trousers has a split near the ankle and gives the pants a tender blaze look.

To complete the upscale look, Lamar sets the look with Tiffany & Co. Jewelry. The posh gems were draped on the left side of his chest. He also had on a diamond necklace that hung from his neck.

This look was styled by Taylor McNeill.

About Sergio Hudson’s show, I say, “Hudson told The State of Fashion, “We stepped out a little bit. I wanted to show the full gamut of who I am as a designer.” The brand’s co-creator Charles Lynch added, “The inspiration was inspired by the African Mbele tribe and their jewelry. We wanted to bring that story to how we live in Beverly Hills. So it’s like Africa meets Beverly Hills. What would Cher from Clueless wear on Safari?”

What are the Most Popular Perfumes on the Market?

There’s no end to how enticing perfumes may excite the senses, whether they’re subtle and discreet or bold and reckless. We’ve collected a list of bottled florals, citrus, musks, and gourmands scents with sweet notes like vanilla, honey, and chocolate to satiate the cultist of perfume cravings in honour of all the beloved perfumes out there in the market. They include;

  1. The Chanel No.5

You had to know something like this was going to happen. Without a doubt, Chanel N°5 is the most famous scent of all time. Since its introduction in 1921, it has been a mainstay in the fragrance wardrobes of many stunning women. A floral bouquet of rose and jasmine is at the heart of the perfume, with a hint of vanilla to intensify it.

  1. The Chanel Mademoiselle

Chanel N°5 is without a doubt the most popular scent of all time in the market, but its younger sibling Coco Mademoiselle has also earned a reputation for itself. The Eau de Parfum is an oriental aroma that is lively and sensuous, and it is adored by ladies all over the world. 

This smell is known for its fresh and lively orange undertone, and it leaves a beautiful trail of translucent jasmine and rose accords. Patchouli and vetiver are pure accents on the trail, highlighting the composition’s slim structure.

  1. Blooming Bouquet by Miss Dior

This floral bouquet pays homage to Christian Dior’s fabled flower obsession. The sweetness of a peony and Damascus rose accord is refined by brilliant Calabrian bergamot at its core. It has a lacework of white musks on its poetic route. A lively and lovely Miss Dior wears a springtime floral trademark.

  1. The Flower Bomb Perfume

An avalanche of flowers is followed by traces of deep amber and patchouli’s woody overtones. A well-balanced perfume that is incredibly addictive. You’ll leave a trail of appeal everywhere you go with Flowerbomb.

  1. Black Opium by YSL

Yves Saint Laurent Beauté’s Black Opium is a seductively captivating fragrance. For a modern, young irresistible scent, the opening notes of adrenaline-rich coffee and the sweet sensuality of vanilla recline into the softness of white flowers. A long-lasting floral aroma with an oriental undertone that has been a favourite among ladies over the years.

  1. The Si Perfume

With hints of freesia and May rose, this scent combines blackcurrant nectar, modern chypre, and blond wood musk. This scent was designed for today’s women. Armani’s tribute to modern femininity is this fragrance. Si Eau De Parfum is chic, sultry, intense, and soft all at once. It lingers on the skin and enchants the senses.

  1. Pleasures by Estee Lauder

Estée Lauder Pleasures created the trend for uplifting, airy perfumes in 1995, and was the first to debut the Sheer Floral fragrance type. This perfume is a light and airy scent that has been a best seller for many years. It is described as a “scent that captures the clarity of flowers just after a spring rain.”

  1. Bloom by Gucci

Natural tuberose and Jasmine notes give the skin an unexpectedly intense white floral smell. The powdered, floral edge comes from Rangoon Creeper, a shrub that changes colour when it blooms. Bloom’s capacity to transport the user to the beautiful garden from which it was inspired is depicted in the advertisement, which stars actress Dakota Johnson, model and actress Hari Nef, and artist Petra Collins.

  1. The Baccarat Rouge 540

This fragrance was inspired by the trademark ruby crystal used in Baccarat’s famed chandeliers and was created to commemorate the company’s 250th anniversary. This oriental smell is gentle and romantic, with notes of jasmine and saffron, as well as a woodier blend of amber accord and cedar. The Baccarat Rouge 540 scent lasts a long time and has a lot of sillages.

  1. The Byredo

Byredo, which was founded in Stockholm in 2006, is one of the more recent fragrance additions to the market. That so, the brand has risen with lightning speed, and each of Byredo’s perfumes has a cult-like following that is destined to become famous.

Mojave Ghost is a standout and a best seller across a wide range of shops. The diverse blend of ambrette, magnolia, sandalwood, violet, musk, and cedarwood has fans unafraid to express their affection.

  1. The Diptyque Do Son

This best-selling perfume is so popular that Diptyque’s website frequently sells out. Do Son was inspired by one of Diptyque’s three founders, Yves Coueslant’s, childhood memories. It contains fluttering hints of Turkish rose, musk, iris, pink peppercorn, orange blossom, tuberose, and jasmine sambac.

  1. Santal 33 by Le Labo

Santal 33 is without a doubt the most popular scent from the niche fragrance creator. The perfume’s goal, according to the company, is to olfactorily convey the great American narrative. Cardamom, iris, and violet are blended with smokier notes of Australian sandalwood, papyrus, and cedarwood in this unisex, crackling blend.

  1. Fleur de Parfum by Chloe

Imagine sitting under a cherry blossom tree, the lovely pink petals of which are raining down on you. This Chloé spritz is a bottled version of that sensation, with roses thrown in for good measure.

  1. White Tea by Elizabeth Arden

Elizabeth Arden’s White Tea fragrance was launched in 2017 and features sensual notes of crisp Italian Mandarin and Sea Breeze Accord. This fragrance will transport you to a land of sumptuous indulgence thanks to white tea extract and Turkish rose extract. A peaceful conclusion is reached thanks to undertone notes of Madras Wood, Ambrette seed absolute, and a triad of calm musks. Inhale.

  1. The Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue

This scent pays homage to the Mediterranean’s blazing sun, sea, and sensuality. The bamboo nestles amid a beautifully feminine bouquet of Jasmine and white rose, while the fragrant citronwood is interlaced with amber and musk, and the invigorating Sicilian cedar melds with the crisp vitality of apple.

  1. The Mediterranean Honeysuckle

Imagine sipping your morning grapefruit on a balcony overlooking the Mediterranean Sea’s turquoise waters, smelling the sweet nectar of honeysuckle. This lovely Aerin mist would be perfect if you could capture that moment in a perfume.

Conclusion

In any scenario and at any age, a trademark smell should be ageless and wearable. However, with so many flavours to choose from, finding the perfect perfume for you can be difficult. 

How do you know which perfume will be your new go-to? Beauty counters and online storefronts are stocked with the latest and greatest from an endless number of perfume brands, but how do you know which one will be your new go-to?

Winter Outfits You Need In Your Wardrobe

With winter days in full swing, it’s time to refresh last season’s wardrobe and invest in some new must-have cosy pieces. Whether it’s a casual everyday look, a fitness winter outfit or a scenic walk, here are some ideas to update your wardrobe.

A Winter’s Walk Outfit

A cold winter’s walk on an early Sunday morning is the perfect start to anyone’s day of rest. But when it comes to feeling warm, comfortable and ready for the elements it can be tricky to look great but also keep toasty. When going out for a walk in winter the right outfit  is important. Choose shoes that have a good grip and are waterproof, especially if it’s been raining or snowing recently. Wearing your brand new white trending trainers is also not a great idea due to the ground most likely being muddy and uneven. 

If you are taking your walk for fitness rather than for the scenery, then layering up is a great choice. Layering allows you to retain your body temperature while also allowing you to remove items of clothing when you get warmer.

Winter Fitness Look

For the ones of us that like to keep active even in the winter months it can be tricky to know what to wear, especially if we are continuing to exercise outdoors. When hitting the elements outside while working out we always wonder how many layers we should be wearing. If you are anything like me you get very hot when exercising, even in the cold. This means that deciding what layers to wear is important. Wearing a sports bra as a base start to add layers of activewear such as a tank top or short sleeve breathable t-shirt. Then finish with a thermal jumper or sweatshirt that will be lightweight but also keep you warm. If you are running outside this winter, I find a fleece lined lightweight outer layer with a sports bra is the perfect combo. 

A great wardrobe essential for your activewear that you can wear all year round is animal print. Now classed as a neutral by most people, this statement print can be found trending in the gym. Available from neutral to bright neons this versatile design can be found at Dancing Leopard. Great to pair with all your preexisting gym wear, animal print leggings can be worn layered up in the winter months or dressed down in summer. 

Daytime Everyday 

When we think of winter fashion we usually think simple neutrals, big knits and oversized coats. But we also think of cosy comfortable outfits that we can throw on and go, but style usually takes a back seat, but it doesn’t have to be this way. Using statement coats, colour blocking and over exaggerated shapes, winter fashion can be more than just keeping warm. 

A winter wardrobe must have a statement coat. Think oversized shapes, bold colours and texture when choosing your next winter coat. The oversized look is trending and wont be going anywhere, so investing in a season after season oversized puffer, fur or parka coat is a great choice. Layering with a scarf, thin knitted top and ribbed knit or leather trousers is a perfect base for any everyday winter look.
