Fashionable Mention: Iman in Balmain Pre-Fall 2015

Fashionable Mention Iman in Balmain Pre-Fall 2015

Here is a quick fashion nod to Iman who rocks the heck out of Balmain’s Pre-Fall 2015 collection. We had already posted regarding the fabulousity of these particular designs but when you add in the stunning grace of supermodel Iman it just takes things to another level. Moreover, we have said it once and we will continue to iterate that there is no way that this woman is 60!

Iman showcases the gorgeous Balmain creations in the latest issue of L’Officiel Netherlands which is appropriately entitled, “Sweet Sixty.” If we wind up looking that dang good in the coming years than we will know we are truly blessed with good genes like this sassy lady! Iman slays women half her age and does it all with elegance and sophistication. A true role model for any young girls aiming for the brightly lit stars.

Fashionable Mention Iman in Balmain Pre-Fall 2015-3

The color scheme and tailoring of the Balmain collection is simply bar none. We are loving the return of pleats which was a major hit and trend a few seasons back. Moreover, the use of florals in fall instead of spring is so airy and festive you begin to forget the dreary weather that is quickly approaching us all. Balmain is for the girl who is powerful yet feminine, bold yet oozing with finesse. If that’s you then you need to go ahead and submit to being a member of Oliver Rousteing’s army!

NFL Player Victor Cruz Stars in Givenchy Fall Winter Ad Campaign3

We were already pumped up for the upcoming NFL season after this past weekend’s football festivities aka NFL Hall Fame Ceremony. However, being the fashion addicts we are seeing football meeting fashion had our style radar way up! NFL superstar Victor Cruz and owner of his own streetwear brand is lending his good looks to Givenchy.

NFL Player Victor Cruz Stars in Givenchy Fall Winter Ad Campaign2

Dang! Uhm… hi Mr. Cruz… 😉

Cruz can be seen in Givenchy’s ad campaign for fall/winter 2015. The suits he wears for the campaign are tailored to absolute perfection. We believe all men should own at least one pinstripe suit in their wardrobe. The style is sophisticated, luxurious and timeless making any man look like an instant classic. If your favorite guy is fighting you on the pinstripe suit tip just tell him it was good enough for The Godfather!

NFL Player Victor Cruz Stars in Givenchy Fall Winter Ad Campaign

We tip our hats and martinis to Ricardo Tisci for choosing such an influential celebrity in the realm of men’s fashion for the Givenchy campaign. The exquisite ad was lensed by photography legends Marcus Piggot and Mert Atlas. It’s a great look for Givenchy and can’t wait to see more style from Victor Cruz in the future.

Get Your Man Right: GQ Mag’s Fall/Winter 2015 Fashion Editorial

Get Your Man Right GQ Mag's Fall-Winter 2015 Fashion Editorial5

If Bae would like a little advice as to how to look like he just walked out of the Monte Carlo with Agent 007 showing him the sights ( tell him that, he’ll love it), then there is a special GQ issue he’ll enjoy flipping through. Gift your man with GQ’s September issue which includes a nifty fashion editorial highlighting the best of men’s fall/winter 2015 couture. The editorial includes designs by Armani, Gucci, Boss and Prada just to name a few.

Some of the looks that we took note of were by Boss, Ralph Lauren and Versace. Boss and Ralph Lauren both showcase models wearing a turtleneck top and tailored jacket. This is perfect for the guy that does not always like to wear a tie or just has a hard time matching them to his suits. The guesswork and stress of coordinating is eliminated and a guy still gets to keep the sauve factor going.

Nevertheless, Versace had us talking over our cups of coffee due to the boldness of putting a man in a fur. If your man has a boisterous personality and doesn’t mind taking fashion risks then this look will bring out his style passion. Check out some of the editorial to inspire your man’s fashion juices to get flowing.

Rihanna has just announced that she soon will be releasing a brand new fragrance to the masses. The soon to be sought after fragrance has been aptly entitled, RiRi, a nickname often used by her adoring legions of fans.

Rihanna revealed via social media how thrilled she is about her upcoming beauty venture. Rihanna took to Instagram stating,

“Excited to announce my newest fragrance “RiRi”… Coming soon! #ThisIsRiRi”

In just hours with almost half a million likes and over 13,000 comments fans expressed their feelings regarding Rihanna’s latest reveal. Most seemed just as elated as our RiRi about the news. Here are just a few thoughts fans had to say about the ad for the RiRi fragrance.
