Film Festivals are where the best of the best showcase their amazing works as well as make a fashion statement. We have come across several eye-catching style moments, yet one actress hit the red carpet in one vibrant ensemble. Any guesses? Yup, Naomie Harris Attends Cannes 2017 Wearing Gucci Fall 2016. What’s “old” can still be classic!

Naomie Harris Attends Cannes 2017 Wearing Gucci Fall 2016

In girl world there are two things that are usually considered to be fashion suicide. one is repeating an outfit too soon in the cycle. The other is rocking something considered to be “so last week.”

Nevertheless, Harris proves that you can still look fab in something from a past season with it feeling fresh and new. Actress Naomie Harris is currently attending the 2017 Cannes Film Festival for her latest film, Ismael’s Ghost. For her big Cannes 2017 red carpet moment she wore a gown from the Gucci Fall 2016 collection.

Her take on the Gucci ensemble is different from the original design seen coming down the Gucci catwalk. Long gone is the one shoulder floral top. Naomie replaced it with a spaghetti strap bodice in matching striped colors. This change gave her OOTD more of a spring and summery vibe.

The last component of Naomie Harris’ Cannes outfit were accessories. She paired her bold gown with a beautiful, delicate necklace from Atelier Swarovski. A nice touch that grabs a little spotlight while keeping attention on the main garment.

Ask and Tell: Karrueche’s Pink Baby Orange Set

Arianne SuggsUpdated on May 15, 2017May 15, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Karrueche Tran’s Pink Baby Orange Set.

You Asked: OMG 1966 I am really feeling Karrueche’s orange athletic outfit. And I hate orange! I have to have it where can I buy the set?!

Ask and Tell: Karrueche’s Pink Baby Orange Set

The Verdict: Thanks for hitting us up and sorry for the delayed answer! However, the ensemble Karrueche is wearing isn’t a set. GASP! We know, we know it looked seamless right?

You know the styling is truly on point when two pieces from two completely different brands can be paired together and no one is the wiser. Tran’s “Beverly Hills Basketball” cropped sweats top is actually by Nike. So then great catch in regards to the athletic wear vibe of Karrueche’s fits. Her equally sexy athleisure skirt is a design by Pink Baby.

Pink Baby is an edgy, urban brand for the “It Girl” in all of us. You may recall actress Keke Palmer wearing their Paper dress ($75) not too long ago. If not you will find the visual evidence below.

Nevertheless, you will be happy to know that the Pink Baby Orange Set does come with its own crop top hoodie, just minus any wording. However, the look still goes hard and will have onlookers screaming, “FIRE!” Get the full set for $100 or just one piece ( the top or bottom) for $50 at www.pinkbabyonline.com.

Hope that answered your fashion question! If you or a style obsessed gal pal has one they would like to ask give us a follow on Instagram, slide into our DMs and ask away.

Dior Cruise 2018 Runway Show – “Dior Sauvage”- The Wild Wild West

ArianneUpdated on May 15, 2017May 15, 2017Leave a Comment

Maria Grazia Chiuri came out guns blazing! For quite a time anticipation has been brewing over Maria’s big Dior Cruise debut. With all eyes from the industry on her and her stunning collection Chiuri opened fire with a sizzling lineup as iconic as the Wild West itself! Tip those hats dolls we are riding off into the sunset with a quick recap of the Dior Cruise 2018 Runway Show.

Dior Cruise 2018 Runway Show – “Dior Sauvage”- The Wild Wild West

Set against the backdrop of the wide open plains of California, the Dior Cruise 2018 runway show was magically ethereal. Cascading tents, hot air balloons, fire pits and delicate dim lighting of lanterns danced across the catwalk into the dusk sky. Dior effortless captured the aura of the old west while infusing their runway and high-end designs with the classic modern Dior flair.

Nevertheless, forget needing to be saved by some lasso throwing cowboy. The Dior Sauvage couture came off strong, bold, rustic without sacrificing even a hint femininity. The woman who adorns herself in this collection can hold a torch on her own but can still revel and bask in her womanly allure.

Dior Cruise 2018 Runway Show

The Dior fashion house gave an earful of what served as the inspiration behind the 2018 cruise collection. Furthermore, even though the garments certainly spoke for themselves, we absolutely loved every word they said! Dior mentions,

“For her first cruise collection for the House, Maria Grazia Chiuri has employed the Dior Savoir Faire. Reinventing it to tell her story in idealized forms. A story that alters proportions and lengths to correspond to the contemporary landscape, in which sport mixes with haute couture. Where tradition transforms into ornamental abstraction and materials see their status changed.

A collection informed by a wild and ancient femininity bound to the magic of the earth! Maria Grazia Chiuri continues to remain loyal to her feminist vision. Design by a woman for a woman.

From the prehistoric wolves emerging from the Lascaux cave on the striking silk jacquards. To the reinterpreted female handprints becoming magnificent sequined embroideries in earthy shades. Maria sought to embrace and explore the Dior heritage for her Dior Cruise 2018 collection!

We have to say that Chiuri accomplished that and then some. However, now it is time for you to experience it yourself. Scroll through this feature to review a few of our favorite looks.

ArianneUpdated on May 12, 2017May 12, 2017Leave a Comment

“It’s the Power Women Issue of Net-a-Porters’ The Edit. Wearing all female designers! Check it out and let me know what you think.” Those were the words of a very excited Kerry Washington as the first images of her newest cover story hit the industry scene. Kerry Washington Covers Net-A-Porter The Edit Power Women Issue, a popular edition that serves to recognize ladies who are relentless and dedicated to not only their craft, but being the best.

Inside the pages of the issue Washington gets real. The Scandal actress opens up to readers about what it really took for her to become fearless. It was not a quality that she was born with… she learned it. A great lesson for anyone who wishes to reach their dreams as well as be more successful.

Kerry Washington Covers Net-A-Porter The Edit Power Women Issue

Jennifer Dickinson, the Editor of Net-A-Porter The Edit discussed Kerry as the mag’s cover star. Dickinson was kind enough to share a little BTS (behind the scenes) tidbit. She says,

“You probably already think Kerry Washington is pretty amazing, right? Well, add to that the fact that she did this shoot for The Edit when her baby son was still tiny, pumping and feeding between shots. I KNOW. Hashtag queen, but what does she do when it all gets overwhelming? Think of Shonda Rhimes obviously. Be more [like] Shonda, Kerry kills it too, power women.”

Just goes to prove nothing stops Kerry and that is exactly why she is named one of The Edit’s “power women.” The issue also fabulously marries fashion to Washington’s Scandal character. For instance you will discover independent female designers pairing their best couture looks to the powerful Olivia Pope. A true celebration of the strong essence of women who are leading the pack in both the fashion as well as entertainment industries.

Be sure to check out Washington’s cover story and read about all the amazing women who are reigning queens in their perspective fields. Also, check out our sneak peak of Kerry’s editorial spread. It’s gorgeous!

Ask and Tell: Beyonce’s Gucci Marmont Embroidered Velvet Shoulder Bag

Arianne May 12, 2017May 12, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Beyonce’s Gucci Loved Bag aka the Gucci Marmont Embroidered Velvet Shoulder Bag.

You Asked: Hey 1966! I like that Loved bag I’ve been seeing the Queen with! I saw someone call it the Loved Bag. You know the one with the florals? Who makes that?

Ask and Tell: Beyonce’s Gucci Marmont Embroidered Velvet Shoulder Bag

The Verdict: Thanks for the question, we have noticed Queen Bey toting the Gucci Loved Bag around quite a bit too! The bag is actually the Gucci Marmont Embroidered Velvet Shoulder Bag. Quite a splurge if you are thinking of adding it to your closet. It retails for $2,700 and can be found right on the Gucci website.

Furthermore, if 2700 is steep there is a slightly (and we mean slight) cheaper Gucci Marmont handbag. Just as cute and chic with florals. Instead of reading “Loved” it says “Modern.” This bag will run you only $2,590.

Now getting back to the Queen. We have seen the CFDA Fashion Icon winner with this particular bag on the Gram at least twice now. The first time she was outside you know just getting fresh air and slaying for the cameras in distressed denim and Alberta Ferreti sheer blouse ($1200). Take two occurred when Bey wore a yellow satin Hellessy ‘Akim’ coat and the Minaroe ‘Aliyah’ gown ($120).

Hope that answered your fashion question! If you or a style obsessed gal pal has one they would like to ask give us a follow on Instagram, slide into our DMs and ask away.

Imagine running in a shoe that literally leaves nothing but air beneath your feet. Sound farfetched? Having a bit of a Marty McFly “in the future” fashion moment? Well, the new Nike tech is pioneering an innovative design making the impossible possible. In the just released Nike Kiss My Air Ad Campaign Starring Winnie Harlow Nike reveals their Nike Air Vapormax. Kicks that are extremely lightweight, comfy, supportive yet with stretch. Ladies welcome to a new era!

How did Nike achieve more air? Their new shoe contains a cushioning system which provides the wearer with more bounce as well as flexibility. Moreover, there are absolutely no additional structural elements (no foam layer) which results in nothing but air being found underfoot. Cool right?

Well, making a an awesome product is one thing. However, choosing the right face and personage to market such product is another. Nike shared why chose model Winnie Harlow to bring the Vapormax to the masses. Nike states,

“When you refuse to be held down by convention, even the ground starts feeling a lot like Air. Whether she’s killing the runway or challenging perceptions of beauty in her industry, Winnie Harlow defies standards to set her own. Measure up to yourself, never others. Nike Air Vapor Max Asphalt is here.”

We are always happy to see more models of color have the opportunity shine bright in a brand’s ad campaign. Winnie Harlow is just as excited about this particular accomplishment. Harlow explains,

“I can’t believe this… I have a Nike campaign. One of my ultimate goals in life and I really didn’t think I’d accomplish it so soon. But by the grace of God, I am really apart of the Nike family and I’m so honored.

I’ve seen my face on billboards and in Times Square and it’s always such a special feeling. But my heart jumped when I passed Nike and saw my hard work plastered and blown up for everyone to see on the inside and outside of the stores. Thank you guys for continuing to allow me to inspire. Thank you to my team for believing in me and thank Nike for welcoming me to the Fam.”
