Spring 2018 Style Inspiration: What To Wear To Conversations With Claire, Washington D.C.

For our DMV Bombshells stepping out this Sunday, March 25th for Conversations With Claire, D.C. get a few ideas on what to wear with today’s “Shiny Shoe” inspired style inspirations.

Opt for a Spring inspired look in a light blue bomber jacket, graphic print cropped tee, and white tailored trousers.

Complete the look with holographic and iridescent accents in a pair of leather pumps, a quilted leather shoulder bag, and gold-tone mirrored lens sunglasses.

For a chic brunch inspired outfit, rock a slogan print sweatshirt offset by a color-block pink and white pleated midi skirt and silver sequin ankle boots.

Toughen up the look with a leather biker jacket, black quilted belt bag, embellished oversize square-frame sunglasses, and silver logo earrings.

Dress up a pair of black skinny jeans with an open shoulder ruffled poplin shirt and a black blazer.

For the final touch, dress up the look with crystal embellished slouchy boots, a red mini chain shoulder bag, chandelier earrings, and a bold red lip.

Shimmer in a glossy blush pink blazer and sequin graphic t-shirt paired with white high-waist skinny jeans.

Pull the look together with a pair of sequin pumps, an embellished pink clutch, rose gold aviator sunglasses, and matching jewelry.

And lastly, keep it comfy casual with a chic twist in an oversized applique hoodie styled with a silver sequin pencil skirt and a pair of glitter low-top sneakers.

Add the finishing touch to this festive street style look with a zipper-detail denim jacket, a black leather pouch, and aviator shades.

Beyoncé Wears A Custom Falguni Shane Peacock India Dress to the Wearable Art Gala Accompanied by Blue Ivy Wearing An Anna Kiki Dress

The Waco to Wakanda themed 2nd Annual Wearable Art Gala had one of the most visually pleasing red carpets we’ve seen. Queen Bey was one of the two honorees and she made an entrance as grand as an honoree would. She stepped out in jaw-dropping custom Falguni Shane Peacock India couture dress

The curve-hugging gilded dress featured mesh with metallic cut outs. The train of the dress was a rumpled statement that had to be carried.  “The cut-outs were strategically placed to mimic the shape of armor, as worn by the Nubian armies” designers Falguni and Shane Peacock told WWD. This embellished frock was absolutely fit for a queen. 

The songstress and honoree completed the look with dangling Jean Paul Gaultier earrings. How does she always manage to rock these heavy earrings so flawlessly?! Must be a Queen Bey thing! 

Blue Ivy accompanied her mom and dad in a very similar gold ensemble. She donned a custom Anna Kiki Couture dress that was almost identical to Beyonce’s elaborate train. This cutie teamed her dress with a custom gold headpiece by Diva MP Couture. A princess, indeed! 

What’s better than one hot dress?! 2! Beyoncé not only stepped out in her custom Falguni Shane Peacock India gown, but she was also draped in a SS18 Jean-Louis Sabaji Couture Spinx dress for the second portion of the night. The silk dress boasts a graphic of sphinxes and a draped chiffon skirt on the bottom half. Bey added her own flair with golf plated cuffs adding a ballon-like look to the sleeves. Hot!

It’s Friday, so you know what time it is—look of the week! This week was a fresh mix up of red carpet style and stylish Instagram posts, either way there were some pretty hot outfits. Behold, who you chose as the chic contenders for the best looks this week!

1.Cardi B in Christian Siriano (36,575 Likes)

Can we all agree that this look lands in the Top 5 of all Cardi’s looks?! What’s best about Cardi and her styling team is that they always keep us guessing from the red carpet to front row NYFW. She accepted an award at the iHeart Radio Awards in a fresh off runway Fall 2018 Christian Siriano dress. With layers of tulle, the burgundy v-neck dress was the perfect elegant statement for the award winning artist. Keep winning, Cardi!

2. Jlo in Versace (20,583 Likes)

We can always expect for Miss Jenny on the block to bring the heat, especially when she is wearing Versace. She sure spiced it up on the ‘Gram this week while promoting her new single draped in FW18 Versace from head to toe. She dressed up her ‘Versace’ baroque print tee with a multi-colored skirt, which of course showed off her legs. Bombshell Jlo completed her look accentuated her snatched waist with a wide belt. We’re here for this look, she can do no wrong!

3. Hailey Baldwin in Zuhair Murad (12,543 Likes)

Hailey made a sparkly entrance to the iHeart Radio Awards in a Zuhair Murad jumpsuit. Between the plunging neckline, skinny belt, and shimmering fringes it could’ve seemed like a bit overkill, but it worked on her. Readers also swooned over this look! @thecreolefashionista35 wrote, “Yass!! If you’re gonna do the whole illusion mesh/strategically placed crystal type jumpsuit, this is how you do it!!”

4. Ugandan Media Personality Bettinah Tianah in Sheeprah Ug

Have you checked out our sister site @FashionBombAfrica?! The page features the beautiful cultured fashion displayed all throughout the continent, not to mention the bombshells who wear them. Bettinah Tianah is one of those bombshells! The Ugandan media personality landed in the top 5 looks wearing a casual ensemble. But, what readers loved most about this chill look was her tee, which read “The Future is Female and African.” YES! What a statement shirt that she teamed with a denim skirt and mini fanny pack.

5. Tia Mowry in Cushnie Et Ochs (11,620 Likes)

The beautiful Tia Mowry supported her husband at “The Oath’s” premiere glowing in a Cushnie Et Ochs black dress. The mom-to-be has been killing the game throughout her entire pregnancy. The one shoulder feature plays up the chicness of the dress, followed by a thigh slit. Tia certainly proves that pregnancy has not stopped her sexy. Such an effortless look!

Lovely ladies! Who has your vote?
