Look of the Week featuring Monica Brown in Alice + Olivia, Solange in Prabal Gurung, Kim Kardashian West in Vetements and More!

Happy Friday, Bombers and Bombshells!

New York Fashion Week is in full swing and we’re beyond excited about the upcoming sartorial lustings the runways are dishing out! So, far we’ve witnessed retro-inspired perfection via Tom Ford, the unexpected (and fashion forward) genius of Yeezy’s Season 4 collection and let’s not forget about the politically-driven Made for History fashion show – hosted by Anna Wintour and Hillary Clinton. I’m convinced that this season is sure to be one for the books!

With that, we’ve also seen some pretty dope outfits throughout the week – so, join me as we get into five of our favorite celebrity ‘fits!

Ready?

1) Monica Brown in Alice + Olivia

Our girl Monica made a chic appearance at Rush Night club while rocking an Alice + Olivia cropped jacquard floral jacket and matching ‘Marisa’ floral jacquard shorts. The songstress accessorized her look with pointed over-the knee boots, a blue-tinted pixie cut and flawless makeup. Werk!

2) Kylie Jenner in LaQuan Smith and Off-White

Kylie Jenner has been serving up for NYFW! The 19-year-old reality star phenom hit the concrete catwalk as she effortlessly slayed our all our lives in a cream, plunging fitted jumpsuit from LaQuan Smith‘s Fall 2016 collection, a printed leaf coat from Off-White’s Pre-Fall 2016 line and a pair of her trusty Yeezy Season 2 lucite ankle strap sandals. After we posted King Kylie to the ‘Gram, there were some mixed reviews (mainly comments comparing her to older sister, Kim Kardashian West) but, overall, it was straight love! Can’t wait to see what she wears next! Sidenote: Are you feeling the blonde ‘do?

3) Rihanna in Yves Saint Laurent

All eyes were on Rihanna as she graced the streets of Soho! The superstar uplifted a Yves Saint Laurent red heart-shaped fox fur cape that she paired alongside distressed denim cutoffs, a graphic black baseball cap and DSquared2‘s ‘RiRi’ lace-up heeled sandals. The fashionista’s exuberant piece ($15,753, to be exact) boasts exaggerated structured shoulders, slash armholes and a delicate silk lining. Thanks to this Bajan princess, I am now on the hunt for my own Kool-Aid hued topper!

4) Kim Kardashian West in Vetements

Kim+Kardashian+Kim+Kardashians+North+West-vetements-2

Cuteness alert! Kim Kardashian West and her adorable mini-me, North, were papped as they attended Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo concert at Madison Square Gardens. The mommy and daughter duo stopped the world as they both donned silver sequin-drenched dresses – but, it was Kim’s version that left us absolutely speechless. The star’s $12,950 ensemble features a high neck, an open back and a sleek silhouette. It’s hard not to love an epic matching moment! I’m here for every bit of this.

5) Solange in Prabal Gurung

To cap off our lovely celeb contenders, we have FBD fave Solange! The always-stylish trendsetter went the monochromatic route while hosting an exclusive opening party for the House of Peroni. Naturally, she slipped into a Prabal Gurung Fall 2016 red silk chiffon high collar blouse and matching button detail trousers from the brand. I don’t know about you, but I’m so inspired by the whole “romantic” takeover. With endless feminine frills, soft textures and delicate accents, I’m sure we’ll be seeing a lot more of this style. And, come on, we all know Solo is queen when it comes to this thing called ‘fashion’!

Show Review: Nomia Spring 2017

Graduating from the CFDA’s Incubator Program has seriously taken Nomia’s designs up more than a few notches. Yara Flinn’s collection for Spring 2017 demonstrates that: brimming with punchy colors and the kind of varied fabrications that she began exploring in Resort.

27-nomia-spring-2017-ready-to-wear

The brand goes full-throttle with knits—from a mockneck sweater with cutout detailing and elbow sleeves to a midi dress with the same aforementioned detail in a curve-hugging silhouette. When paired with high-waist pencil skirts with thigh-high slits and PVC-strap mules, the looks were modern, fresh, and most importantly functional.

Separates upped the wearability factor even further with halter tops boasting the same threaded drawstring accents of a classic bucket bag at the neckline, roomy trousers accented by edgy zipper detailing, v-neck shells with gathered detailing for both work and play, and an ankle-grazing navy coat that will live in any modern day woman’s wardrobe for years to come.

Dresses were easy and breezy with split necks, rounded hems, button fronts, and elasticated waists which will work for a range of sizes and shapes.

Naturally, my eyes were on the jumpsuits. They were plentiful with crisscross necklines, cropped lengths, and zip fronts. They were mostly sleeveless, which created the canvas for loads of layering.

This collection was so many things: accessible, crisp, current, classic. The designs could adapt to so many women’s style proclivities. And with contemporary price points that top out at around $800 for a coat, I’m certain that Nomia will gain many more fans once this assortment hits stores and online.
