The gloves are off! And, we have another Who Wore It Better battle brewing!

For a recent apperance at the premiere of the film Loving, actress Lupita Nyong’o rocked a head-to-toe Kenzo x H&M ‘fit that features the collab’s $70 Off-the-Shoulder Tiered Floral Print Blouse. But, let’s not forget, Christina Milian also uplifted the same piece a few days ago.

I think both ladies look amazing! While Lupita opted for more of an eye-catching appeal, Christina dressed down the eccentric piece with simple black jeans and bold pumps. Gotta give credit where it’s due!

Look of the Week featuring Beyonce in Zuhair Murad, Carrie Underwood in Michael Cinco, Gwyneth Paltrow in Gucci and More!

Happy Friday all!

Let’s jump straight into the contenders for our latest Look of the Week feature.

Ready?

1) Beyonce in Zuhair Murad

beyonce-cmas-1

Beyonce wowed the entire world as she graced the 2016 Country Music Awards red carpet in an exuberant embellished gown from Zuhair Murad’s Spring 2016 collection. The jaw-dropping ensemble boasts dramatic shoulders, a glamorous train and a flawless silhouette. Despite the rumors surrounding her groundbreaking performance of “Daddy Lessons” with The Dixie Chicks, the superstar served up some serious slayage with a side of #BlackGirlMagic! And this, my friends, is why I’m a loyal supporter/member of the Beyhive – our Queen just gets it! 

2) Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Gucci

2016lacmaartfilmgalahonoringrobertirwin-rosie-huntington-whiteley

I stand by the fact that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is one of my favorite fashionistas. This devastatingly gorgeous supermodel relishes in an effortless, “cool girl” aesthetic that speaks volumes on and off the catwalk. For a recent appearance at the 2016 LACMA Art and Film Gala, the British bombshell uplifted a soft pink, tiger embroidered silk gown from Gucci’s Resort 2017 presentation. She accessorized her demure look with a bold lip and her signature golden locks. Hot!

3) Gwyneth Paltrow in Gucci

Now, if you’ve been following Gwyneth Paltrow as long as we have, then you’re fully aware that she is no stranger to sartorial perfection. The iconic actress was on hand for the 2016 LACMA Art and Film Gala in a super chic Gucci Resort 2017 silk crepe cocktail dress. While the beauty’s custom frock screams pure sophistication, the multicolored geometric embellishments catapult this sleek LBD to new (and innovative) heights. To top off her ‘fit, Gwyneth also donned gold peep toe ankle strap pumps and a black clutch. Sidenote: Does this woman ever age? My gosh!

4) Alesha Dixon in Little Black Dress x Alesha Dixon

aleshadixonpridebritainawardsredcarpet-lbd

The fashionable Alesha Dixon attended the Pride of Britain Awards in a $220 bandeau dress from her recent collaboration with the Little Black Dress brand. On multiple occasions, we’ve seen this bombshell continuously rock her own designs but, this time around, it was all about flirty florals! Alesha’s feminine frock includes a thigh-grazing slit, a belted waist and structured pleat bodice detailing. Always remember: You can never deny the power of an in-your-face graphic print, it’s the answer to  our “what to wear woes”.

5) Lea Michele in J. Mendel

Actress/singer Lea Michele illuminated ladylike vibes while making a quick appearance at Entertainment Weekly’s PopFest in a J. Mendel Spring 2016 multicolored eyelet midi dress and a pair of pointed black pumps. The emerald and navy number also features a deep v-cut neckline and metallic stripe detailing. While Lea’s limb-baring outfit borders along the lines of both classic yet contemporary, it’s so refreshing to see her in such a marvelous piece. Go girl! We see you! 

6) Carrie Underwood in Michael Cinco

carrie-underwood-michael-cinco02016-country-music-awards-1

Country sweetheart and 2016 Country Music Awards host Carrie Underwood gave all onlookers a reason to stop and stare as she set the red carpet ablaze in a pastel pink gown rom Michael Cinco’s Fall 2016 collection. The exquisite halterneck gown reminds me of a modern-day Cinderella! Although the dress may be fit for a fairy tale princess, Carrie breathed new life into its appeal by transforming the piece into a sultry stunner. The songstress also flaunted tousled blonde curls and kept her accessories to a minimum. Cute!
