One of the main attractions I can’t wait to catch at Essence Festival this year is Andra Day! The sultry songstress has not only graced the covers of Essence magazine, but is slowly crafting her niche in the music industry with her one of a kind style and voice.Constantly deemed Rihanna’s “look-alike”, Andra has stepped out of what we normally see on beauty looks in the industry. Instead of a “no-makeup” makeup look or even a ‘natural’ beat, she instead goes for a bold appearance every time she steps out.A talented performer and singer, Andra Day has drafted a style aesthetic all her own. The best way to describe her look would certainly be ‘Old Hollywood’, with pinup curls paired with a dark cat eye and usual red lip.What I love most about Andra’s look is that it never appears forced, and as part of her personal brand, she has truly shown the world that your look goes hand in hand just as much as fashion!No matter what she wears on the red carpet, her look of a modern-day Hollywood doll always juxtaposes the beauty of her voice.

If you’re heading to Essence Festival, you’re in for a treat. A classic beauty both inside and out, Andra Day shows us that sometimes going Old Hollywood glam and retro might just be the new thing.

Check out some of her music below:

Evan Ross and girlfriend Ashlee Simpson both went for rocker looks, wearing a graphic tee under a black blazer, skinny jeans and leopard shoes (cool, right?) and Simpon in an little black dress and black booties.

Blac Chyna also came for the fun, wearing a comfortable black fit, open-toed black Alaia heels and a black, yellow and white jacket. Cute!

Kylie Jenner was also in attendance with Tyga, with Kylie rocking a grey bodycon dress, grey suede Gianvito Rossi heels (much like Khloe’s), and a satin bomber. I like her outfit, though definitely not Dave & Buster’s ready.

As a young woman who has Ghanaian blood running through her veins, I’m always in awe of the beauty of wax prints. I’ve done my fair share of highlighting up-and-coming African brands but SHE By Bena is on a completely different level!

SHE By Bena’s Eclipse Collection was brought to my attention by the brand’s Creative Director, Sheelah Garbrah. The talented designer simply emailed a few select photos to my inbox and left a straightforward four-sentence message that left me absolutely captivated. I was itching to learn more.

The Ghanaian brand’s Eclipse Collection is ideal for the woman on-the-go who isn’t afraid of making a statement. With distinctive black, red and white prints, dramatic silhouettes and continuous striking peplum detailing, SHE By Bena combines an eccentric African aesthetic with polished modern tailoring. The versatility of the pieces are even better! I mean, you can rock your custom pencil dress to your local church service and then turn around and slay as you head to brunch with your significant other. It can’t get much better than that!

The overall appeal behind SHE By Bena’s Eclipse Collection stems from the subtle sophistication of their products. It’s clear that their dynamic pieces will add bold touches of exuberance to your existing wardrobe while making you look (and feel) like a Queen. The collection includes a variety of fitted jumpsuits, delicate midi dresses and scintillating two-piece suits. Although there aren’t any prices disclosed, you can always reach out to the brand to inquire about personal questions.

I’m here for it all!

If you’re interested in placing an order with SHE By Bena, contact them via email at shebybena@gmail.com. Or, if you’re more of a social media lover, follow the brand on Instagram @shebybena.
