The 60^th Annual Grammy Awards made it’s big return back to the big apple on January 28^th. There were an array of events following up to music’s biggest night including a Roc Nation brunch with all our favorite stars, a Clive Davis and the Recording Academy’s Gala honoring amazing lyricist Jay-Z, and more. But, of course, the moment everyone waited for was the big night. Nominees and celeb attendees stunned on the carpet and during the awards ceremony in some amazing looks. Here were the top 5 best dressed according to your likes on the ‘Gram!

1. Beyoncé in custom Nicholas Jebran

We can always count on Queen Bey to bring the heat! She didn’t walk the red carpet, but she made an appearance and broke the internet in a custom double thigh split gown by Nicholas Jebran. The curve-hugging dress emphasized Bey’s bomb hourglass figure. Accessorizing with a statement hat, diamond earrings and bold Alain Mikli shades it added every bit of chic to her look. To top it off, the mom of 3 rocked sleek straight back cornrows. This is how you do the Grammy’s! Hot!

2. Rihanna in Alexandre Vauthier

Rih Rih opted off for the grand red carpet entrance, however she accepted an award for Best Rap/ Sung Performance alongside Kendrick Lamar in a full vinyl look by Alexandre Vauthier. The Grammy winner wore the belted jacket off the shoulder and stole the show as usual!

3. Eve in Naeem Khan

Eve got glam at the awards adding a personal twist in a Naeem Khan embellished pantsuit. With a little cleavage and a diamond necklace, she owned this look. One of the top accessories to this look was definitely the hair to side which added a bit of edge to her look. Hot!

4. Cardi B in Ashi Studio

Cardi B channeled angelic vibes in a Ashi Studio dress with a deep plunge V in the back. Of course, the ‘Bodak Yellow’ rapper paired the all white look with her infamous bloody shoes. The up-do added every bit of glam to Cardi’s look. For her first Grammy’s red carpet, she did not disappoint at all. So beautiful!

5. SZA in Atelier Versace

SZA was a dream in a sheer Atelier Versace gown with tons of tulle. As a look that was extremely different from the songstress’ norm, it was definitely a head turner. Her statement big hair was all that was needed for this amazing red carpet appearance.

They all looked amazing! Who’s got your vote for best dressed?

I didn’t march in the Women’s March this past weekend. Why? While I stand in solidarity with the women’s movement and do believe women deserve equal pay and equal treatment in the workplace and beyond, can women truly be unified when so many white and Asian women remain silent when observing racist behavior?

Two times in recent fashion history, we’ve seen brands blatantly exclude or denigrate people of color. First H&M put a young black boy in a sweatshirt that says, “The Coolest Monkey in the Jungle.” Then e-commerce site Revolve neglected to include brown bloggers on their latest influencer trip.

I reached out to two women I know nominally well who attended #RevolveAroundtheWorld and asked them to participate in a talk about diversity during NYFW. You might be surprised (or maybe not) that some of your favorites didn’t deign to respond. Instead of having a constructive talk about issues of diversity, the two women I reached out to chose to remain silent. THEY SAY NOTHING. They do nothing. Why march for women’s rights with people who would not march for civil rights?

The latest infraction: street style star Miroslava Duma posted an image of flowers she received from designer Ulyana Sergeenko to her Instastory, signed with the note: “To my Niggas in Paris.” They can use whatever word they want in private. But no, Ms. Duma made it public.

Everyone knows that niggas is a derogatory term. EVERYONE KNOWS THIS. But this is a word Ulyana and Miroslava apparently regularly use amongst each other. As Sergeenko wrote in her apology via Instagram, “Kanye West is one of my favorite musicians, and NP is one of my favorite songs. And yes, we call each other the N word sometimes when we want to believe that we are just as cool as these guys who sing it. “

The women who are complicit in our exclusion from fashion shows and exclusive events are the same women whose picture you double tap when you see them pea-cocking in the street. Miroslava Duma has great style, yes! But she also published this picture of a woman sitting on a chair fashioned after a black woman in her magazine.

If we are going to march for rights, let’s march for EVERY Woman’s rights. Asian and Caucasian women, please stand for something. Don’t just take selfies, flip your skirts, and stay mum when it comes to issues of diversity.

When you see injustice, call it out and make sure things change from the inside. Your silence means consent.

Yes, you and you and you. All of you in the picture above. Please, stand for something. Go deeper than the surface.
It’s time.
Love & Light,

**In the meantime, let’s support each other. As you can see, it’s hard enough out there as it is.

***Ta Nehisi-Coates breaks down below why it’s not ok for white women to use the N Word:

With snow flurries blanketing the streets of New York, this fashion week calls for warm and stylish digs. Think of statement coats and warm accessories to complete your fashion week look. If you need a few ideas on what to wear from show to show, tap into today’s style inspirations.

Hit the shows in a tipped black jumper with ruffle detail and a pair of black coated skinny jeans.

Dress up the look with a red belted coat, leopard print calf hair ankle boots, a veiled beanie, and a black and red colorblock shoulder bag.

Opt for street style chic in a ribbed knit sweater paired with a ruffle mini skirt and block heel ankle boots.

Complete the look with an embellished tan coat, a nude patent leather top-handle bag, and oversized frames.

Battle the New York weather in an all-black look accented by a ruffle side fitted dress and black over-the-knee boots.

Add a plush faux fur coat, a mini leather shoulder bag, and black round shades for the final touch.

What do you think of today’s winter-ready outfit ideas? Are they fashion week approved?

It was an all black affair at the 75th Annual Golden Globes as attendees wore black for solidarity in honor of the Times Up movement. Who says all black can’t be glam on the red carpet?! Actresses, actors, writers, producers, and more hit the carpet in their all black and showed that you can in fact still make a statement in the color. Based on your Instagram likes we’ve tallied up the best dressed glamorous contenders on the carpet. Let’s get into them below!

1. Oprah Winfrey in Atelier Versace

   

   Oprah Winfrey stunned on the carpet after being being the first black female to accept the Cecil B DeMille Award at the 75th Golden Globes. She showed off her curves in a form fitting off-the-shoulder Atelier Versace gown. Ms. Winfrey is simply stunning! There are no other words for this jaw-dropping statement!
2. Issa Rae in Prabal Gurung 

   

   Issa hit the carpet in a Prabal Gurung deep v-neck dress with ruffled shoulders and a high thigh slit. The Insecure star’s flawless make-up and pushed back hairdo added every bit of glam to this stunning look. I love that she opted for a simple ankle strap heel—Stunning!
3. Viola Davis in Brandon Maxwell 

   

   Viola Davis graced the carpet outfitted in a custom Brandon Maxwell velvet gown. With a layered necklace and her afro she was all smiles as she arrived. Readers were loving her natural hair statement— @sxyleogrl wrote, “That hair is giving all the life necessary for 2018.” So sleek!
4. Kendell Jenner in Giambattista Valli

   

   Kendell Jenner flaunted her model physique in a stunning Giambattista Valli gown. The strapless high-low dress had just enough tulle to turn heads on the carpet. Jenner kept it simple in a closed toe pump and her natural short bob hair. Pretty!
5. Tracee Ellis Ross in Marc Jacobs

   

   Tracee did not come to play on the Golden Globes red carpet! She was clad in a high neck sleeveless Marc Jacobs gown and a matching black head tie. Her stunning red lip gave the all black the perfect pop of color. @lacigale_ wrote, “Come through black queen, so regal!” This look was everything.

That wraps up our top 5! Who’s got your vote? Rae

Thoughts? 

Fashionista of the Year is a hard list to make, especially with the litany of look-at-me moments we’ve seen on the red carpet! With all the beautiful Fashion Bomb celebs, it’s hard to pick just 5, so we filtered our list down to women who keep us guessing, with unexpected ensembles that keep the fashion world talking.
In no particular order:
1. Monica Brown

Miss Thang Monica is playing zero games on the fashion front this year. With photographs by @Cyndiibee_, Mrs. Brown communicates her stylish sensibilities with everything from Toshop to Saint Laurent, Off White, and Johanna Ortiz.

A platinum straight bob and a sultry stare are always the perfect accents to her looks. While we may have overlooked her stylish penchants in the past, 2017 was Mo’s year to slay.

2. Tracee Ellis Ross

Blackish Actress and all around funny gal Tracee Ellis Ross has been a fierce fashionista for some time. But this year, she shined like no other, hosting the American Music Awards where she donned a total of 12 outfits. Everything from sparkly Stella McCartney to a shirt from her mother’s garage were fair game for her hosting duties:

While she certainly turns it up on stage, we also triumph in Tracee’s personal style. With a great body, fabulous hair, and an electric personality to match, she can’t go wrong.

3. Cardi B

2017 has been the year of Cardi B! With her breakout hit, Bodak Yellow, followed by features with G Eazy and a new single, Bartier Cardi, like her music, Belcalis Almanzar’s style ascension has been off the charts.

Sure, she used to be known for taking off her clothes, but now she drips in threads by Givenchy, Christian Siriano, Laurel Dewitt, Rayar Jeans, and LaQuan Smith.

A true fashion lover, she takes chances and isn’t afraid to shine.

Here’s hoping 2018 is even more fabulous for Ms. B!

4. Zendaya

Zendaya has been unstoppable on the style front all year. With her tall stature, gorgeous looks, and the help of her stylist Law Roach, she has owned almost every red carpet she has graced.

Stand out looks? Her Moschino Butterfly Effect Dress, her pink Barbie Ralph & Russo gown, and the green Zuhair Murad gown she wore to the MTV Awards.

Law Roach and Zendaya are a match made in Style Heaven! I can’t wait to see what they do next.


5. Rihanna

No most fashionable list would be complete without Rihanna! The Bad Gal always wears items Phresh off the Runway. YSL boots, Off White jackets, you name it, she’s got it.

While Rihanna titillating our senses years ago with street style, she now exudes a more casual yet runway elegance.

That Rihanna reign just won’t let up!
Who was your most stylish fashionista of the 2017?

There is no doubt this year has delivered a slew of show stopping red carpet moments. But when it comes to the slaying together, these celebs have undeniably mastered it. As we get ready to usher in the New Year, let’s delve into our 2017 picks for our most fashionable pair below.  

1. Gabrielle Union & Dwayne Wade:

This dashing duo should come as no surprise as the ever stylish pair pranced around Europe coordinating seamlessly all summer long. The Wades tastefully experiment with bold prints & exuberant hues while keeping it chic & classy.

The two sat front row during Men’s Paris Fashion Week highly anticipated shows rocking Rick Owens, Off-White, Balmain and Berluti just to name a few.

Oh and how can we forget the subtle yet stunning statement Gabrielle made at the Emmys outfitted in a Zuhair Murad sheer black whimsical cape gown while her beau was nothing less then dapper donning a classic Maison Valentino tux. Hot!

 

2. Cardi B & Offset 

It is without question 2017 has been the year of Cardi B & with her beau Offset by her side.

The new “it” couple took New York Fashion Week by storm rocking bold and luxurious looks from Christian Siriano, Alexander Wang, Helmut Lang & Laquan Smith.

Cardi B & Offset recently attended “The Set Gala” a ritzy birthday extravaganza for the Migos rap star where he donned a YSL studded button up, custom RTA brand pants by Zoe Costello, & Saint Laurent boots. Hostess Cardi gleamed in in a Nicolas Jebran crystal and diamond encrusted dress Louboutin pumps and Freida Rothman accessories. 

They Slay!

3. Gucci Mane & Keyshia Kaoir

The Wopsters are all about showing up and showing out. Embellished ensembles, sequin statements and elaborate furs are a must for the luxury loving pair. 

YSL, Givenchy & of course Gucci are just a few of their favorites.

During their highly anticipated star studded wedding the couple showcased their affinity for grandeur bling as the brides custom couture gowns sparkled in crystals while Mr. Davis opted for a sleek three piece tux teamed with a diamond encrusted bow.

 

4. Teyana Taylor & Iman Shumpert

With a marriage that spans over two years The Shumpert’s are a beautiful representation of black love. Although we were not bombarded with daily images of the twosome this year, when this stylish duo stepped out, it was a sight to see.

Iman & Teyana are both unapologetic and unafraid to take risks with their wardrobe–and we love every minute of it! While Teyana has mastered the art of the tomboyish feminine swag, Iman continues to take a sleek but edgy street wear approach mixing high and low.

We love it!

5. Sean “Love” Combs and Cassie 

We saved the best for last! Sean Combs aka Puff Daddy aka Love is known to be superior stylewise, so it makes sense that his wifey is on the same accord. This year has seen them slaying in both casual and formal ensembles, rocking everything from tuxes and ball gowns to matching athletic MCM with ease.


Though they’ve showed up and showed out quite consistently over this past year, little could top their Met Gala moment, with Puff taking a seat on the carpet to bask in Cassie’s exquisite beauty.

With their unparalleled swag combined, they are unstoppable.

That does it!
Who was the your most fashionable couple of 2017?

With the launch of Fashion Bomb Men this year, we couldn’t help but to turn our attentions to the men who kept it dapper, fresh, and bespoke all at once.

On our list, we look at hip-hop royalty who mixed luxury pieces with your favorite streetwear brands and an NFL star who knows how to make a statement without uttering a word. Take a look at our 2017 Fashionable Men List:

 

1. Fabolous

Fab has killed the fashion game wearing a wide variety of stylish looks. From styling the latest or greatest sneakers with colorful streetwear pieces to keeping it sharp in an embellished tuxedo suit, Fabolous takes the crown as one of the Most Fashionable Men of 2017.

 

What makes Fabolous stand out from the other Fashion Bombers is his ability to effortlessly turn sportwear attire into a clean and dapper fit. Fab’s closet consists of unique and rare pieces like the vintage DuPont x Jeff Gordon rainbow sweater, and more recently, the FW16 Off-White Lamb Shearling Jacket he wore to a Knicks vs. Nets game.

How can we forget the jacquard suit jacket he wore to Rihanna’s Annual Diamond Ball in NYC ?

With the release of his Freddy vs. Jason themed Friday on Elm Street collaboration with The L.O.X’s own Jadakiss, Fab was hot on the press trail keeping it cozy in Supreme pieces and sick kicks, like these Limited Edition 1978 Timberland Hiking Boots.

 

We can only imagine what he has in store for us in the future, especially since he’s raising his son, Johan, to take the Fashion Bomb crown next.

2. Swizz Beatz

Artist, producer, and fashion bomb favorite Swizz Beatz is next up on our Fashionable Men list! As the Basquiat of Style, Swizz Beatz is arguably one of the sharpest fashion icons in hip-hop.

With the release of his Bally collaboration, Swizz showed us how to weave dope art concepts with classic sporty styles like varsity jackets, high cut sneakers, and basketball slides.


Who can forget the dapper Revolution cover he did early this Fall, styled by Fatima B.? Swizz took the traditional suit and tie look and elevated it with textured red velvet, and tantalizing pink/forest green/navy blue plaid print suits.

 

3. Big Sean

 

What would a Fashionable Men list be without the Don, Big Sean, himself? Armed with one of our favorite celebrity stylist, Ade Samuel, Sean never misses a beat when he steps out. He is a calm fashionable force to be reckoned with, keeping his eyes out for streetwear brands that leaves a big impression on his fans.

In May, Big Sean told Vogue all about his patriarchal style influences, citing his father’s love for leather pants and his grandfather tailored suit adoration as inspiration. “I’m from Detroit, where they know how to clean up,” he stated.

 

Him and his leading lady, Jhene Aiko, rightfully won the 2017 MTV Movie & TV Award for the Most Stylish couple, which he accepted in a Dior Homme suit fit for a don.

He and Jhene cut stylish forms at several high wattage affairs.

And of course, Big Sean spreads positivity, not only in his music, but with bold statement pieces like these pair of vintage peace sign printed  Levi jeans.

 

4. 2 Chainz

The self-proclaimed drench god comes in next on our Fashionable Men list and we’ve got to give it to him: he drips swag! The 6’5″ rapper didn’t let a broken leg stop his “Pretty Girls Love Trap Music” tour or pumping the breaks on making an impression with his fire attires. From his pink wheelchair, 2 Chainz consistently delivered back to back fashion moments throughout 2017.

 

Some of his favorite pieces came from luxury and streetwear brands like Gucci, LV, and Supreme!

We’re excited to see how 2 Chainz keeps us on our fashionable toes in 2018.

14. Cam Newton loves mixing prints to showcase his big and eccentric personality. The fashion forward quarterback doesn’t mind pairing a pink suit, checkered shirt with a striped bow tie for a press conference;  as long as he can rock a stylish fedora, he’s game!
    
    
    
    
    
    And just like his Fashionable comrades, this style daredevil often switches things up trading his loafers and boat shoes for sneakers.
