Arianne SuggsUpdated on February 1, 2018February 1, 2018Leave a Comment

We love a good dose of street style fashion. Plus, add in a supermodel and the dividends are even sweeter! Models in the industry are known for having access to the hottest trends and must-have couture items; thus, aiding in the seasonal trends frenzy. Joan Smalls is already giving a preview of a spring handbag to add to our wardrobes. Check it out, we spotted Supermodel Joan Small’s MCM Trisha Bag!

Spotted: Supermodel Joan Small’s MCM Trisha Bag

Literally, everyone is wearing MCM right now! If you are an “It Girl” this brand will claim you. We have seen the fashion label on the “flawless ” Beyoncé as well as fellow model, Winnie Harlow. Queen Bey rocked the brand’s MCM Berlin Crossbody from their Autumn/Winter 2016 collection. While Miss Harlow sported the Millie Crossbody while being photographed on the streets of London, England.

So what about Joan’s handbag? Smalls hit the town with the MCM Trisha Bag. The bag is from MCM’s Viva Life collection that is apart of the Spring/Summer 2018 line.

Nevertheless, all these stylish ladies are bringing a huge spring 2018 accessories trend to the fore… the small handbag. While oversized can be great for transportating our entire lives around, it’s smaller bags that will rule the day. The great thing is that smaller bags can be toted without feeling loaded down. Thus, making them awesome for traveling, at events or daily errands. So then, go ahead and give the small bags some love this spring season!

Remy Ma is still serving up a healthy dose of Melanin Magic as well as eye-popping fashion! The hip hop star was recently photographed wearing a Vetements Rubber Raincoat along with a slew of other designer pieces. Nevertheless, what is the best part of this street style moment? Remy Ma styled herself! No help, no comments, just plain doing her… love it!

Fashionable Mention: Remy Ma’s Vetements Rubber Raincoat in White

The raincoat Remy Ma is wearing is from the Vetements Fall/Winter 2018 collection. New items form this line such as this one recently dropped at online stores such as Net-A-Porter, SSENSE and Mytherea. Remy is wearing the coat in white but it does come in additional tones. Enjoy this hot look in a rich black or a fun yellow rubber duckie hue.

Furthermore, the coat can be purchased for between $360-$560. Our recommendation? Hit up Net-A-Porter.com who is currently pricing the coat for 40% off at $336. Certainly, one of the best prices you will find anywhere online.

Nonetheless, it is no surprise to see Remy rocking the rubber raincoat. Vetements is a couture kingdom for the rich and famous. The edgy label is a staple for A-listers ranging from Future to Rihanna.

So now it looks like Remy Ma is adding her name in the Vetements style game. However, to finish off her look, Remy accessorized the coat with a Moschino handbag and the now iconic Off White Made For Walking Boots. Work it girl!

Arianne SuggsUpdated on January 31, 2018January 31, 2018Leave a Comment

Ladies, those “time of the month” pants just leveled up! Once a month we all find ourselves reciting a famous line from Mean Girls, “This is all that fits me right now.” Nevertheless, the TF collection for the pre-spring season will change the game. Allow us to fill you in on the hidden fashion treasure known as the Tom Ford Drawstring Trouser.

Fashionable Mention: Tom Ford Drawstring Trouser

He had us at pajama-inspired. Designer Tom Ford who is infamous for his exquisite, high-end designs; has managed to marry comfort with a sleek finish. The Tom Ford Drawstring Trouser has the look and feel of a voguish trouser but is relaxed.

The pants come with an awesome drawstring for an adjustable fit. Plus, hold on to your wigs… POCKETS! Huge, oversized ones at that! So then, not only can you enjoy pants that will not cut you in 1,000 ways; but you can also carry keys, a wallet and lippie around with no issue. Bless you Tom Ford.

Therefore, guess all that’s left is to talk price and the complete TF look featured within this post. As you notice the trousers are pictured with simple basics… jacket and a white tee. These basics are a great addition (including their colors) to your wardrobe. Not only can they be easily mixed and matched with other things. However, since the colors are neutral it will make outfit pairings even more of a cinch.
