Signature fall hues like burgundy and jewel tones are taking a backseat this season. For fall 2016, it’s all about brighter shades and multi-color prints. If you’re looking to mix things up, get a few ideas on how to add a pop of color to your look with 4 ways to wear the multi-color trend.
A multi-color striped knit sweater adds a playful touch to a curve-hugging powder blue midi skirt.
Add a dramatic spin with a pair of feather-embellished satin sandals, a burgundy handbag, and oversized square-frame sunglasses.
Dress up a white pussybow blouse and black skinny jeans with a colorful spotted jumper.
Work in playful details with a blue Peekaboo handbag, ankle-wrap leather pumps, and cheeky fur-embellished accessories.
Mix metallics in a crackled silver bomber jacket paired with multi-striped sequin wide leg pants.
Style the look with suede ankle-wrap sandals, a Gucci Ghost pouch, and black aviator shades.
Lastly, mix prints in a striped turtleneck sweater paired with bi-color wide leg pants.
Complete the look with a statement fur coat, a mixed print turquoise handbag, and sleek silver pumps.
So what do you think of the multi-color trend? Could your fall wardrobe use a splash of color?
So I’m crushing on Jennifer Le this week. Sue me! But while on her website, I fell in love with yet another item: her MAJOR fur shawl.
The splurgeworthy accessory rings in at $795, and boasts neutral black and white, so it can go with any look.
It reminds me of the shawls Queen Rihanna has been spied in in the past…
Without the major price tag.
I need this! Jennifer, call me girl. Get yours here.

Toya Wright has been doing promo for her new book, In My Own Words! She stopped by the Breakfast Club to talk about her new tome in the same $268 BCBG Anson Geometric Print Jumpsuit Jill Scott wore to the CMT Awards:
Both ladies filled it out quite nicely, and accessorized with diamond jewelry, though Toya opted for simple sandals to Jill’s platform boots.
The dark teal printed piece has a drawstring waist and a stripe up the side.
It’s hard to decide. What do you think?
Though we’re a little over six months from the 2017 Met Gala, we’re already excited because the theme has been announced! The momentous occasion and Costume Exhibition will honor none other than icon Rei Kawakubo:
The show is the first exhibition honoring a single, living designer in 33 years. The last was dedicated to Yves Saint Laurent in 1983.
Of the news, the Costume Institute’s Curator Andrew Bolton said, “Rei Kawakubo is one of the most important and influential designers of the past forty years.” He continued, “By inviting us to rethink fashion as a site of constant creation, recreation, and hybridity, she has defined the aesthetics of our time.”
120 womenswear designs from Comme des Garçons will be featured in the exhibit, harking all the way back to the iconic brand’s first runway collection in 1981 through to the present.
East/West, Male/Female, Past/Present will be just a few of the vignettes. And no glass will be covering the mannequins outfitting the pieces, so it will be one of the Met’s most up close and personal exhibits yet.
As for the fête, Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams, and Anna Wintour will serve as co-chairs.
Mark your calendars for May 1st as that is when the main event goes down. The exhibit will then open on May 4th.
Are you getting excited for the Met Gala?

It’s that time again! Last week Kenzo x H&M gave us a teaser by releasing their look book for the upcoming collaboration. Last night we were on the scene for their highly anticipated runway show that will kick off the countdown to one of the most vibrant, colorful collection yet!
Let’s get one thing straight; this show was complex. Kenzo x H&M gave the performance of a lifetime! Models sashayed down the runway in groups of 3 all while performing a dance number to the classic song, “Express Yourself,” by Charles Wright. Oh yea, let’s not forget the marching band that played along to the music and danced with the models. Not your typical runway show.
The burst of colors and prints will awake your animalistic instinct. Kenzo takes you on a ride in the jungle by merging colorful zebra prints with festive florals, polka dots and cheetah. While the visual stimulation may seem overwhelming, the collection offers fun and liveliness.
Matching sets were among the many themes in the show. A modern-day interpretation of jungle living comes to life in the blue men’s wear set. The subtle trimming of zebra prints mixed with blue, green and red cheetah translates into a wearable, casual look. Perhaps my favorite piece from the collection is the floral bardot crop top and matching palazzo pants. The effortless, whimsical set is my idea of what Kenzo’s princess of the jungle would wear.
The collection is filled with fun, loud pieces. If you’re not a risk taker when it comes to fashion, you probably won’t be a huge fan of print and color overload. It literally stimulates all of your senses!
Instead of a final walk, the show ended flash-mob style. Models, dancers and band members got on the runway and danced like their lives depended on it. It was pretty dope!
Seated front row were some of our fashion favorites. Iman and Bethann Hardison (both in the Kenxo x H&M collection) sat with June Ambrose.
The after party was sponsored by Belvedere. Their signature cocktails definitely matched the energy of the event!
If the fashion fete was not enough, Kenxo x H&M had a popup shop, allowing you first dibs on the new collection. While waiting on the line to get into the store, I ran into Rosario Dawson. The actress was dressed in a skirt from the line and by the looks of it, she indulged in some shopping!
The Kenzo x H&M show was a direct representation of the collection. It is bold, powerful and not for bland. These are conversational pieces that make statements. If you’re not ready to be the center of attention, then this collaboration may not be for you. What do you think? Will you join the hype on Friday, November 5th?
XOXO – Marsha B.
Lady Gaga was the lady in red while heading to a T Magazine celebration in NYC, going bold in a Valentino Couture Fall 2016 Red Ruffle Cape Train Dress and Black Leather Boots:
She eschewed the runway’s jewels and middle-part chignon for the occasion.
Only Gaga could wear this!
What do you think? Hot! or Hmm…?
Deepika Padukone traipsed through LAX Airport in a pair of $20 H&M Burgundy and Powder Wide-leg Side Stripe Pants:
She completed her look with a $150 Topshop Blush Lightweight Oversize Bomber Jacket.
Her woven pants feature contrasting stripes along the outer legs, an elasticated waistband, and wide straight legs with zip detailing.
Cute and casual!
Get Deepika’s pants for a steal here.
Would you wear it?
