Look of the Week (The Top 5 Most Liked Looks on Instagram): Zendaya in Teresa Helbig, Kerry Washington in Roberto Cavalli, Kris Jenner in Dolce & Gabbana, and More!

Hey, y’all! Hope you all had a splendid week. I am exceptionally excited to share with you who had the top looks on Instagram based on your likes. Of course, it’s a treat every week, but I think you’ll be just as enthused as I am when you get through with this recap. Shall we?

1. Zendaya in Teresa Helbig: 33,465 Likes

I haven’t seen a flip curl since it’s resurgence back in the early 2000s, but leave to to Zendaya and her talented stylist, Law Roach, to push the envelope a bit and take us back to Jackie-O’s signature ‘do. She kept with the vintage vibe and wore a pastel high neck top by Teresa Helbig paired with showstopping high waisted sequins pants. What is not to love?!

2. Kerry Washington in Roberto Cavalli: 12,998 Likes

Is there really much I need to say for this? I mean, Kerry Washington was literally popping in this bomb floral pant suit by Roberto Cavalli. How perfect is this suit for the fall season?All the luscious colors and prints just gives all the feels. She was a vision with a vibrant smile to match. I’m quite sure she stole the show with this one!

3. Kris Jenner in Dolce and Gabbana: 11,499 Likes

You guys, say what you want about the Kardashians, but you cannot deny mama Kris’ tenacity for life. All her hard work has rewarded her with one heck of a life and it shows. Daughter, Kim, dropped a bombshell on us when she posted this pic of Kris in a new blonde ‘do, serving for the gods, dripped in a plush fur stole. As if that weren’t enough, she wore a stunning Dolce and Gabbana floral silk ensemble and played on the red with a killer pair of red boots and a Birkin to match. Bravo, mama Kris!

4. Cassie & Diddy in Dsquared and Tom Ford: 10,158 Likes

Cassie and Diddy attended Guy Oseary’s wedding in Rio looking like the dynamic duo that they are with Cassie in a Dsqaured floral ensemble and Diddy suited up in Tom Ford. As we all know, Diddy prides himself in his dapper appearance and I’d say he’s got every right. The iridescent suit jacket was a great choice to celebrate nuptials from the plethora of Tom Ford selections we’ve seen.

Cassie on the other hand loves to mix risqué with a bit of edge hence the lace bustier and drool worthy Dsqaured floral leather jacket. Did you catch the matching sheer high low skirt with the train? Love! Rarely do you ever see one without the other and it’s quite the treat for us when we catch them on the fly, so we’re not mad at it!

5. Lala in Rani Zakhem: 9,232 Likes

Lala looked radiant in a Rani Zakhem gown at the Angel Ball. What a gorgeous design! I love how it graduates from a dark shimmer to a vibrant gold. One thing for sure is that Lala knows how to shake it up and serve on all levels.

Adored all these looks!

Claire’s Life: Jay Manuel’s Beauty Event featuring Iman, Alfre Woodard, Jay Alexander, and More!

Happy Thursday, folks!

Yesterday I popped by Jay Manuel’s beauty event, celebrating his new partnership with Simon Malls.

Jay has initiated a new retail experience for beauty enthusiasts buying products at makeup counters. In addition to furnishing customers with glorious lighting, Jay has conceived of several high tech additions, including computers that remember past purchases so that you can buy your favorites with a click. Cool, right?


Several Fashion and Beauty insiders came to celebrate Mr. Jay, including Miss Jay Alexander, Lionbabe, Alfre Woodard , Bethann Hardison, and supermodel Iman, whose Impala beauty company owns Mr Jay’s eponymous brand.


For the night, I kept it colorful in a Solace London dress, Gianvito Rossi pumps and a Saint Laurent bag from A Daily Diva.

I am currently en route to my motherland Bahamas for Bahamas Fashion Week! I decided to take my mom as my plus one because she is responsible for my life, love of fashion, and it’s her birthday! Stay tuned for pix.


In the meantime, be sure to check our Jay Manuel’s line at JayManuelBeauty.com and stop by his retail experience at your local Simon Mall. Know when a Jay Manuel counter is coming to a mall near you by following @JayManuelBeauty on Instagram.

Smooches!

PS Mr. Jay will actually be one of our special guests at our VIP brunch at Cocktails with Claire x Ty Hunter New York!

Virgil Abloh, Hailey Baldwin, Stan Smith, and More to Be Honored At This Year’s 31st FN Achievement Awards

The 31st FN Achievement Awards goes down right after Cyber Monday, on Tuesday November 28th. The awards show just released its list of awards recipients this year, which includes some of our faves:

Air Jordan 1 x Virgil Abloh will receive the Shoe of the Year award, while Hailey Baldwin will take home the Style Influencer of the Year award. The Manolo Blahnik Lifetime Achievement honor will go to none other than shoe icon Stan Smith and Ronnie Fieg will have the Collaborator of the Year award to place on his mantle. Other award recipients include Gianvito Rossi with Designer of the Year, Malone Souliers with the Vivian Infantino Emerging Talent Award, Attico with Launch of the Year, Birkenstock with Brand of the Year, Steve Madden Ltd. with Company of the Year, and Puma with Marketer of the Year.

Abloh is following in Rihanna’s footsteps, as she took home the 2016 Shoe of the Year award for her FENTY Puma Creepers. And Smith returns to the awards show, after winning the 2014 Shoe of the Year Award.

“Every year, we work hard to select the brands, designers, and influencers who shape the shoe industry,” stated FN Editorial Director Michael Atmore. “Leading the pack is Virgil Abloh, one of the biggest fashion forces of 2017, who grabs the shoe of the year crown. Abloh’s Air Jordan 1 set off a feeding frenzy that saw sneaker aficionados and celebrities alike crave the limited-edition style. He joins an incredible list of talents at what promises to be a star-studded evening.”

On the Scene: The CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Show and Tea with Zendaya in Teresa Helbig, Teyana Taylor, Tracee Ellis Ross in Prabal Gurung, and More!

Our favorite style stars toasted to the CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund with a fashion show & tea. From retro-inspired ensembles to casual getups, the looks didn’t disappoint!

Let’s get into the afternoon’s ‘fits:

Zendaya had a retro-inspired moment in a pink ruffle Teresa Helbig blouse and high-waist plaid trousers. She’s always flawless!

Teyana Taylor flaunted her curves in a latex cutout LBD. I live for her style.

Tracee Ellis Ross was a blue dream in a matching knit Prabal Gurung crop top and red accents. Gorgeous, no?

Laverne Cox served up schoolgirl chic in round readers, a monogram cardigan, floral mini dress, “caviar” purse, and platform pumps. Brittany Snow was clad in the kind of ethereal butterfly print dress that would made Mariah Carey proud. Both ladies were outfitted in Kate Spade. Hot!

Kaia Gerber looked every bit the new super in an elegant plaid frock.

Millie Bobby Brown was super cool in a simple midi dress and black accessories that grounded her ensemble.

Eva Chen kept it surprisingly pared-down in a graphic t-shirt, denim mini skirt, and those coveted Chanel cap toe slingbacks.

Ruby Rose showcased her toned abs in a Victoria Beckham bralette and modern suit.
