Blac Chyna was snapped while in LAX today, donning a black bodysuit, $140 Puma by Rihanna Black Satin Creepers, and a $260 Joyrich Betty Boop Denim Jacket.
 This Joyrich Betty Boop jacket boasts quirky and playful elements with kisses, hearts, and tiny portraits of the animated, jazz age flapper.

 Red and yellow leather sleeves elevate the cartoonish element of this fun piece of outerwear.

Making sure she traveled in comfort, she slid on a pair of Puma by Rihanna Black Satin Creepers.

With a suede upper and satin PUMA formstrip on either side, these lace-ups are perfect for jetsetting with ease, especially with the growing baby bump.

Certainly an eye-catching piece look to garner an array of snaps from the paparazzi, do you think it’s worth the $400 total? Well, if you do, you can shop the jacket here.  The creepers are sold out, unfortunately, but you can view them here, along with other selections.  Straight blonde hair, oversized sunnies, and a white Balenciaga purse complete her travel ready look.What do you think?  Would you rock it?  

Kendall Jenner served up casual glam as she hit the streets of New York City in a Givenchy Fall 2016 Menswear Cobra Embellished Mesh Cutout Oversized Bomber Jacket, light-wash denim, a black transparent bodysuit and sleek patent leather ankle boots.

On the runway, this street style essential was presented in a layered look. The cream version complemented tones of brown, tans and whites.

And, the chocolate alternative was featured alongside tailored navy trousers and a maroon hoodie.

Cute! Very relaxed and simple.

Blake Lively is on a roll in New York promoting her new movie The Shallows, hitting theaters this Friday.  She made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to gab about the new film and to share a few laughs with the funny man while wearing a Cushnie et Ochs Resort 2017 Ribbed Off-The-Shoulder dress and $2,495 Christian Louboutin ‘Miss Taos’ Multicolor Beaded Pumps.

 The bandage fit at the bust falls gracefully off the shoulders while keeping everything in place.  The bottom of the dress is made of a stretchy light-knit fabric, perfect for her growing baby bump.  And inch or two below the knee, the modest length shows a little bit of leg while elongating her frame. Blake jazzed up her ensemble even more with her bold, patterned pumps. Inspired by Mexican artisinal crafts, Louboutin’s ‘Miss Taos’ pumps are certain to garner the a few double-takes.  With elaborate and colorful beading, this four-inch heel makes for the perfect summer shoe. Clad in a peach colored number by Elie Saab yesterday, Blake opted for bold colors this go ’round, choosing cobalt over the blush color as seen on the model above.  With soft makeup, a slightly messy ponytail and minimal jewelry, Blake let the colors of her look speak for themselves.  And she looks hot! Do you agree?

During my daily morning routine of scouring Snapchat, I stumbled upon our fave Tracee Ellis Ross doing press for the 2016 BET Awards (alongside Black-ish co-star Anthony Anderson) while uplifting a whimsical $920 Stella McCartney Pre-Fall 2016 ‘Alida’ Stripe Cat Print Silk Top and a $995 Leopard Print Jacquard Skirt from the brand. She completed her look with matching lace-up gladiator sandals and a breezy updo.

The actress’s exact frock was featured in the Pre-Fall 2016 presentation where Lineisy Montero rocked gold hoop earrings, animal print slip-ons and a structured cream handbag.

Tracee’s long sleeve top blends sportswear with romantic themes and soft cat motifs. The silk blouse also includes royal blue, black and orange diagonal chevron stripes along the neckline.

Luckily, this playful piece is still available online. Get yours now!

Tracee’s skirt pairs perfectly with the theme of her shirt! This edgy Italian accent boasts a banded waist, a concealed back zip closure and a relaxed fit.

You can also purchase this piece via Saks Fifth Avenue here!

This is exactly what makes Tracee such a fun fashionista to follow – she’s just so fearless and unpredictable. I love it!

When you think of your skin tone, what comes to mind?  When I think of mine, I see rich chocolate skin that shimmers when the sun hits it.  Skin that has its own natural highlight and with the sun serving as bronzer.  Today, I am proud of my complexion.  Unfortunately that feeling hasn’t always been familiar to me.  I grew up being one of the darker people in my family.  I was constantly told, “You’re pretty for a brown skin girl.”  It left me wondering what was wrong with all of the other girls if I was the exception.  Still, I went through my teenage years realizing that my slightly darker skin set me aside from my fair-skin counterparts.  When I realized who Marsha B. was, I realized that my color is one of a queen.  Not because of the degree of melanin, but because the melanin tells a story of strength, no matter the shade.  Our complexion tells a historic tale of trials, tribulations and triumphs.  Brown skin wasn’t always the popular choice until one day, women of color everywhere woke up and decided, “My brown skin is poppin!”

Tori Elizabeth and Victory Jones joined forces to birth The Colored Girl Campaign.  The primary focus behind TCG is to highlight the beauty and features of the brown color wheel.  Mainstream media may frown on our complexion and features, but this campaign works to empower and unite women of color based on their unique physical attributes. Each model was handpicked by Tori and Victory with the intention of accentuating the features that media finds abnormal or weird yet are emulated and celebrated on other women.  Tori explained, “There are moments where I feel everyone loves us and wants to be us and have our features. But then there are the moments when I feel it’s not okay for us to have it but it’s okay for the masses to have it.  So as a brown girl I feel sometimes it’s not okay to be who you are.  Whether it’s in media or social media.  I’m from the south, where being a brown girl isn’t something that people necessarily worship or praise.  I want the next generation (and our generation) to look at this campaign and feel like it’s okay to be a brown girl, outside of media.  In real life.“

The process for picking the models for TCG was simple. “(I looked for) Different girls of different shades.  I was looking at facial features that didn’t really match the other, but complimented one another.  I looked at hair that they had whether it was locks, braids, weaves or afros.  I looked at the skin tone.  From the lightest skin to the darkest, beautiful skin.  I didn’t want it to be commercial and conventional; I didn’t want every girl to have the same body type, I wanted to show different aspects of a woman,” she said.

Happy Tuesday, folks!
So in addition to our Cocktails with Claire and Miss Diddy events, Miss Diddy and I have collaborated on a dinner series, which brings together powerful, influential, bomb men and women to break bread and build! Our first Influencer Dinner was in LA and last night we took our talents to my hometown of Atlanta for a fabulous dinner, sponsored by Reebok, and co-hosted by Toya Wright and Tammy Rivera.

The dress code was Reebok, so guests represented in sneakers, leggings, and low key Athleisure looks. Lots of Bombshells came and showed their support, including Kandi Burruss, Monyetta Shaw, Rasheeda, Latasha Wright, Parischea, Tami Reed of Talking with Tami, Fashion Bomb Daily graphic designer Ashley Stewart, and Marie Denee of the Curvy Fashionista!

Take a look at some stand out Athleisure looks for the night:

Parischea sat pretty in a jumpsuit, Christian Louboutin heels, a Gucci bag, and a Reebok sheer jacket.

Tammy Rivera made Reebok Classics look oh so cute, didn’t she? She wore a Zara jacket, white dress, and a popping Gucci Sylvie Top Leather Handle purse.

Toya Wright added heels and a Givenchy Antigona bag to a Reebok jacket and a Shop Garb Boutique black dress.

Kandi kept it simple in ripped jeans and a white button down.

And Miss Diddy and I wore the same Reebok Dance Strappy Bra Top! She dressed hers up with a Reebok jacket, denim shorts, and Saint Laurent heels, while I skewed more casual in a Reebok jacket, leggings, and black Classics.
It was a fun night! Atlanta showed us lots of love!





I have a few more days in the A before heading to LA for the BET Awards. We’ll be on the carpet–it’s sure to be a fun time!

Until then, special thanks to Tara, Ashley, Angela and Arie from Reebok, and the whole team at St. Cecilia restaurant!
