The ever-so-chic Scarlett Johansson made an appearance at the global trailer launch for her new film Ghost in the Shell as she donned an avant-garde lavender selection from Atelier Versace‘s Fall 2016 Couture presentation:
While the same piece was modeled on the runway (with eye-catching footwear and oversized hoop earrings), the model’s version incorporates bolder accessories that allow the dress to shine to its full ability.
Now, I’m a bit of sucker for dramatic accents: cue whimsical detailing and contrasting graphic prints… But, this particular ensemble did nothing for me. Scarlett even looks a little confused about her ‘fit…
Actress & singer Lea Michele was on hand for The Grove’s Christmas with Seth MacFarlane celebration in Los Angeles while wearing a Lela Rose Resort 2017 One Shoulder Gold Embellished Midi Dress and black cutout peep toe heels.
The sophisticated number boasts a banded waist, a clean silhouette and a retro-inspired aesthetic. Pretty chic, no?
This is such a lux piece! And, I believe it was very fitting for the occasion. I adore the way it’s styled on the model (with the gorgeous metallic platforms)!
Today’s Fashion Bombshell is Shannae from Toronto:
She writes, “I would describe my style as mood driven with a trendy twist. My mood tends to influence the colors that I wear and the comfort level of my attire.”
“I consider myself to be a bubbly and happy person, so if I’m not wearing color I make sure that I incorporate a rouge lip and my welcoming smile.”
“I wouldn’t say that one person is my style Icon. However, I find that I’m inspired by June Ambrose’s style choices. I also love a classic sexy and sultry look paired with a statement necklace and jacket.”
“My Instagram style crushes are @Awedbymoni, I love how she incorporates contemporary and luxe pieces into every look. I also love @Momcrushmonday, I consider her to be #Goals on so many levels!”
“I guess my style is a bit all over the place but it works for me!”
“Lastly, I’m expecting my first child, so finding the perfect look to match my bump has been a bit of a challenge. I’ve promised myself that I would stay true to my style, wear heels, and continue to smile no matter what.”

Celebrity hairstylist and wigologist Tiffany Lamb recognized the need for products that hydrate, moisturize and restore hair follicles. She teamed with a chemist to create Lucid Bliss, an extensive hair collection that includes moisturizing shampoo, hydrating conditioner, hair refreshener and vitamin E hair drops.
Created during a time when she lost all inspiration as a hairstylist, Tiffany decided to redirect her passion from hair styling to hair care. Her products are made with all-natural oils and ingredients that’ll waken your hair follicles and nourish your scalp.
Tiffany tested her products before the launch to repair her own hair. She documented the results on her Instagram page, @Touched_by_Tiff. On the brands’ Instagram page, @MyLucidBliss, you can see photos of customers who have used her products and saw amazing results.
The launch was hosted by Naturi Naughton. The pint-sized actress wore a simple, chic matching crop-top and midi skirt set with black booties.
The events’ attendees came dressed to impress! Let’s get into some street style:
Tori Elizabeth, 1/2 of the rapidly growing Colored Girl movement, rocked thigh-high caged boots paired with thigh-high socks, black shorts and a maroon shaggy coat. Cute!
Shawn donned a beat face, wine red loccs and an olive green cape. Love it!
Obsessed with Malyia’s all-black ensemble that featured a pop of color! And I’m having some serious hair envy…
Speaking of hair envy, Courtney kept it simple and cute with an ivory knit dress, satin floral booties and big, luscious curls!
Avielle looked stylish in a pair of maroon high-waist pants, black over-the-knee boots and a black fur stole. Love that hat!
Fun event! I can’t wait to sample the Lucid Bliss collection. If you’re interested in upgrading your hair regimen, check out MyLucidBliss.com!
The Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences’ 8th Annual Governors Awards was a star-studded affair! The who’s who of Tinseltown showed up and showed out in sheer frocks, exquisite embroidery, high-fashion designs, statement-making accents, and more.
Let’s see what they wore, shall we?
Lupita Nyong’o beamed in a sheer, fit-and-flare embroidered Elie Saab Couture look. Werk Lupita!
A black snake-embroidered Gucci gown was Ruth Negga’s choice for the evening. Her style is impeccable.
Gugu Mbatha-Raw shimmered in a silver embellished Narciso Rodriguez dress. Simply radiant!
Naomie Harris was clad in classic stripes, choosing a strapless, navy and white Carolina Herrera gown. In a word: beautiful.
Janelle Monae always finds a way to put a gorgeous spin on the classic black and white combo! Her printed gown was perfection. And yes to her Naeem Khan clutch!
Aja Naomi King surely turned a few heads in a sheer, embroidered Marc Jacobs gown.
Ava Duvernay injected a pop of color to her black, short-sleeve embellished gown with magenta lips. She’s always the picture of elegance.
Mahershala Ali repped for the fellas in a timeless, three-piece suit. He’s so handsome!
David Oyelowo always takes risks on the red carpet—with his white, embroidered Dolce & Gabbana suit being one of his boldest looks yet. I think he pulled it off!
Lily Collins beamed in a copper-hued, silk Amanda Wakeley number. Eternal brow goals.
Mommy-to-be Marion Cotillard swaddled her burgeoning baby bump in a lace LBD from Christian Dior.
Kate Beckinsale was white hot and on-trend in an off-the-shoulder Pamella Roland stunner. She’s always flawless! I loved the pearl accents.
A woman can never go wrong with a Monique Lhuillier gown, right? Leslie Mann slipped on a strapless, floral printed design from the designer.
We all know that Michelle Williams is a Louis Vuitton girl, thus she wore a long-sleeve, sheer embellished gown from the iconic French fashion house. Hot!
Erdem makes some of the most gorgeous dresses in the world. Emma Stone’s fluted hem, jacquard piece from the brand was no exception.
Pleats please! Nicole Kidman was daring in a long-sleeve gown with sheer panels from Christopher Kane.
Octavia Spencer was pretty in pink, donning a Tadashi Shoji gown. She’s never looked better.
Pharrell and wife Helen Lasichanch made the case for red carpet flats. They’re the cutest!
Meagan Good and DeVon Franklin are always one of the best looking couples in any building. Their matching, all-black ‘fits were simple, yet chic.
Rebecca Hall’s black, pink, and white Prada bow-accented gown was pretty exceptional.
Michelle Yeoh gave a flash of leg in a yellow draped gown with a plunging, illusion neckline and a thigh-high slit.
Amy Adams served up Grecian goddess in a white and gold Carolina Herrera number.
Hailee Steinfeld dazzled in a white lace Elie Saab gown.
Winnie Harlow stepped out for the Marie Claire Leaders Awards in Mexico City while rocking Chanel‘s Fall 2016 Tiered White Ruffle Dress, black stockings and pointed patent leather pumps. But, fashion extraordinaire Marjorie Harvey also wore the same feminine piece during Paris Fashion Week with loads of pearls, fishnet stocking and leopard cap-toe Christian Louboutin heels.
The chic number was modeled on the runway with similar pairings including black stockings, an oversized bow and a standout bowler hat.
While I love all things Chanel, I’m not exactly sold on these looks. The dress comes off a bit matronly but, hey, different strokes for different folks, right?
So I’m in Lagos for GT Bank Fashion Weekend!
Yesterday, I popped by the Bridge, a fun lounge, bar, and restaurant located in Lekki 1 (8 Wole Olateju street off Admiralty).
After being blown away by the delicious food, drinks, and decor, I spoke to the owner, Tola Odunsi, who suggested I invite Fashion Bomb readers over for drinks. To which I said: Absolutely!
Join me tonight for cocktails and copious coups of champagne.
