Go From Summer to Fall With The Nude Dress

Arianne SuggsUpdated on August 5, 2015July 28, 2015Leave a Comment

If you are anything like us then you know the struggle of having to deal with any upcoming seasonal change. The shifting of clothes that will be stored so that other more fitting fashions will be able to be more accessible is a pain in that glorious body part we all sit on. Isn’t it so much easier ladies when we have versatile pieces that can withstand more than one season?

If you burst out with an Amen or Hallelujah trust us you are not alone in the least. We are always on the lookout for fashion pieces that have some serious lasting power! What is a couture trend that is hot now and will definitely work later?

The nude dress is a versatile little number that will still be turning heads come fall. The neutral tint allows it to be paired with other fashions if you need to “warm” things up a bit via a sweater, coat, cape, scarf or jacket.

Fashionable Mention: Keke Palmer Wearing Georges Chakra Fall 2015

Arianne SuggsUpdated on July 13, 2015July 13, 2015Leave a Comment

There are not enough adjectives in the English language to describe the fierceness of this look! Comic Con was not ready for the heat that was Keke Palmer as she burned up the red carpet. Palmer was attending Entertainment Weekly’s Comic Con soirée when she made all heads go SWOOSH!

Palmer stepped out wearing a purple cut-out jumpsuit from the Georges Chakra Fall 2015 collection. If you look up the meaning behind the shade of purple you will find that it conveys,

“Wealth, extravagance, creativity, wisdom, dignity, grandeur… [and] is often associated with royalty, nobility, luxury, power and ambition.”

By that definition we have to agree that KeKe oozed of luxury and sass. With such royal appeal there is no wonder as to why she is a Scream Queen.

Beauty Notes: Women always seem to wonder is it okay to match one’s makeup to their ensemble? The answer is a resounding yes! Matching your beauty look to your outfit helps to pull the overall look together. Don’t know where to start or the rules for making the matchy-matchy makeup look work? Just take a page from KeKe and stick to matching one facial feature to your outfit. Palmer chose the lips and matched the lipstick shade with her jumpsuit and BOOM! A fashion and beauty goddess is born!

Arianne SuggsUpdated on July 6, 2015July 6, 2015Leave a Comment

Beautiful Lineisy Montero is one of the modeling rising stars to be featured in Prada’s ad campaign for fall/winter 2015. Montero is joined in the campaign by models Avery Blanchard, Estella Boersma Inga Dezhina, Ine Neefs, Greta Varlese and Maartje Verhoef. In the ad the stylish squad sport tailored coats, jackets, embellished dresses and sweaters with much school collar preppy attitude. It is clear that Prada does not want women to be afraid of stronger color or prints which nicely livens up normal winter attire that tends to focus on darker, drabber styles.

Moreover, it is amazing how the collection screams retro and modern at the exact same time. The entire campaign was captured by photographer Steven Meisel.

Accessories Report: We immediately took notice of the long-sleeved gloves featured in the campaign. Long gloves are so old Hollywood chic and convey upscale luxury. So then, this fall and winter feel free to have an Audrey Hepburn moment…Prada has given us the okay.

We are fans of Ghanaian stylist Edward Enninful and we were delighted to see his latest work for W magazine. In the June 2015 edition, Enninful got to dress up the beautiful Jourdan Dunn for an editorial showcasing fashions we can’t wait to rock once the heat wave ends. Many of the season’s trends seem to spill on over i.e. stripes, florals and patchwork pants. Moreover, are we the only ones that are absolutely in love with those globe earrings? The entire editorial is simply genius and had an all star team to boot. Hair and makeup were handled by Shon Hyungsun Ju as well as Frankie Boyd and the shoot was lensed by Alasdair McLellan.

First Look: Zoe Kravitz Covers Marie Claire

Arianne Suggs April 20, 2015April 20, 2015Leave a Comment

Zoe Kravitz is Marie Claire’s newest covergirl and on the cover as well as inside the May 2015 issue Zoe flexes some style muscle. For the cover she wears a moto jacket from the Pre-Fall 2015 Christopher Kane collection. Another shot we loved shows Kravitz in a cute knit sweater dress with snake skin boots. Nevertheless, Zoe also revealed a little insight into her own style preferences:

“I’ve been trying the art of dressing up sweatpants. I feel like an NYU student. Not in a good way. But if you wear them with, like, a chunky boot, it’s kind of cool.”

Nasir Mazhar Autumn Winter 2015 Fashion Show

Arianne Suggs January 15, 2015January 15, 2015Leave a Comment

London has been set ablaze with fiery hot menswear fashion shows. Besides all of the male eye candy the couture is getting us just as warm under our stylish collars. The Nasir Mazhar Autumn/Winter 2015 collection gave us a slight late 90’s vibe when hip hop artists were wearing those puffed up, shiny ensembles. If you don’t remember or were not alive slide on over to google and look up Diddy as well as Mase then get back to us. The fashions were very bold and in your face, so if your man loves to be seen he will love this collection. One of our favorite pieces from the collection were a pair of green and black sporty looking pants. They looked comfy but had really neat panel detailing that gave them a cool flair.
