Looks intriguing! Will you be downloading Solo’s new album this Friday?
The oyster silk chiffon wraparound gown has a tie belt and is embellished with eye-catching pearls along the low-cut neckline, around the three-quarter length cuffs, and down the edges of the draped cut-outs that run the length of each elegant sleeve.
Cut from whisper-weight black silk-georgette, this blouse is decorated with gold and tortoiseshell buttons and authentic wool-felt epualettes.
The wide-leg pants sit high on the waist with a ribbed panel that nips in your silhouette. Two gold buttons flatteringly frame the hips.
I’m a huge fan of the military-inspired trend, but this one missed the mark for me.
If you’re down to drop some coins, you can purchase the blouse here for $3,040 and the pants here for $1,290. Download the Net-a-Porter app today and you can receive 10% off your purchase!
This wool cardigan is richly embellished with 19 different appliqués, all representing one of the collection’s recurring motifs: birds, fish, flowers, hearts, butterflies.
The phrase “Space Boy” is applied across the back.
The past 8 years of Barack Obama’s presidency have been powerful, hopeful…and also sartorially stimulating because of the vision that is our fabulous First Lady Michelle. She walked into our worlds with perfectly pointed kitten heels, and kept a strong hold on our stylish hearts with a wardrobe that spanned from J.Crew to Naeem Khan. She was the master of the cardigan yet could pull out a jaw dropping gold flecked ball gown for the night. We had a good old time swooning over her many chic turns, and have documented every hair and outfit change with unmatched glee.
Enter Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, whose arrival onto the scene has been met with so much lukewarm sentiment, that #GirlIGuessImWithHer trended on Twitter.
Let’s be honest: Hill is not much of a fashion plate. Her suits are simple and practical (she mostly wears pants, not skirts). And though her words are powerful and she is, obviously, the best and most brilliant candidate, we can’t seem to get fired up.
Former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, who famously claimed she could see Russia from her home in Alaska, was feted and fawned over, with copious details of her designer digs, cool glasses, and blush pink lip color populating newspaper articles.
Even though Palin was *not* qualified for the position, she sure was popular, due to her good looks, simple makeup, and leggy ensembles.
The world is sexist. Some people won’t vote for Hillary because she’s a woman. Trump has used extremely offensive language towards females (About Rosie O’Donnell, he said, “Rosie is just disgusting…she’s fat, she’s a loser.” He stood by his statement last night!). And somehow it is still a close race in this upcoming election.
It simply is harder for women. Just as Beyoncé mused, “Strong enough to bear the children…and get back to business,” women in politics are expected to be smart, know policy, have a stunning track record, but most importantly, not just look professional, but enviably fashionable while doing so.
Hillary is our first female Presidential Candidate and GOD willing, she will be our first female President. But I sometimes wonder if we’d stand more firmly with her if she chose to wear something we could sink our sartorial teeth into.
We can only hope that one day females will be judged for their brain power over the brands they wear. That black men will stop getting shot in the street. That people will be rewarded based on talent and not theatrics. But it seems we have a ways to go.
Let’s hope that real change happens soon, however, on November 8th. Register to vote here.
What do you think?
Now, today, I chose to spotlight a young woman who has played a large role in supplying me with some of the best sartorial inspiration since 2015. I’ve always kept a keen eye on her growth and progression but, it wasn’t until now, that I’ve taken the time out to actually feature her here on Fashion Bomb Daily. Her wardrobe is a treasure trove of endless glitz and glamour but it’s her impeccable styling ability that keeps her followers so delightfully intrigued.
With that, join me as we get into our latest Bomb Blogger: Annabelle Fleur of The Viva Luxury!
In her ‘About Me’ section, Annabelle briefly writes, “I started my love affair with fashion working with a wonderful Hollywood designer Elisa Ferare. Elisa was the most intellectual, creative, chic, lively and brave person I ever met. She used to tell me “Dare to dream and all you wish for will come true”! Starting a fashion blog was a long-time dream of mine. I live, breathe and dream fashion. I hope my blog reaches people who share my obsession with all things fashionable and who dare to dream just like me!”
Annabelle is a style maven who knows no limits. Whether she’s floating down the street, drenched in Gucci‘s latest designs or simply donning distressed denim and an on-trend off-the-shoulder stunner, her versatility is the key factor that distinguishes her from other successful bloggers. In addition to her flawless grasp of selecting statement-making pieces, Annabelle is also queen when it comes to taking looks from day to night!
When I first started following The Viva Luxury, I found myself enthralled by Annabelle’s evident beauty but her Vogue-worthy style combos were also pretty high on the ‘outfit inspo’ radar as well. I found myself combing through every single page of her site, just hoping and wishing for another fashionable fix. And, she never disappointed.
Annabelle is a style chameleon who always builds her looks based on a feminine yet luxurious appeal. No matter what she slips into, this Bomb Blogger always remains the epitome of chic while providing added bits of straight-off-the-runway intrigue. If you were given the opportunity to raid Annabelle’s enviable wardrobe, you’d definitely discover some of the most coveted shoe selections, countless printed maxi dresses, bold voluminous silhouettes, loads of ladylike lace and a handbag collection that will bring you to your knees!
Slay on, hun!
