The lovely Binx Walton is “fit” to be in Chanel’s ad campaign for autumn/fall 2014 collection. Walton can be seen with fellow supermodel Cara Delevingne working it out in a gym setting. Okay, we will stop with all the puns for a second just so we can express how amazing this campaign looks and feels. The fashions are strong yet soft, edgy but romantic. You can be a good girl gone bad in these fabulous couture styles or a bad girl reforming…well, just a little anyway (wink, wink). Congrats to Binx for scoring yet another fabulous ad campaign for another iconic fashion house.
Fashion Show
Fashionable Mention: Spring 2015 Valentino Floral Menswear Pants
Actor Will Smith made quite a stir with his Valentino floral pants when he attended the Valentino fashion show during Paris Fashion Week. The pants are from the Spring 2015 collection, but Smith made the look even fashionable now! He paired the pants with a purple scarf and green solid green leather jacket. If the man in your life isn’t shy with his style choices then stepping things up with a print could be a chic choice for him to enjoy. However, if he chooses to indulge in this look make sure he takes a page from Will Smith’s book and keeps the rest of the ensemble more conservative (i.e. solid colors).
Fashionable Mention: Joan Smalls for Gucci Fall/Winter 2014 Ad Campaign
OMG! Where to begin in order to discuss how much we absolutely love the Gucci fall ad campaign! Joan Smalls kills it as usual, but the fur and oversize bag had us going goo-goo gah-gah for all things Gucci! A woman who wears such an ensemble is showing the world she is strong, sophisticated and not the least bit afraid to flaunt anything luxurious. We know we shall be indulging in the major fur and life-size handbag look this season. However, weigh in couture lovers, is the look perfect or little too much?
Ciara Slays in Riccardo Tisci Air Force Ones
Hot shoe game alert! First, it was Olympian Allyson Felix and now sultry Ciara is burning up the streets with her Air Force Ones. Ciara killed the footwear competition by sliding on a pair of Riccardo Tisci designed AF1s. In regards to the collection Tisci said,
“It was not work. It was a celebration — a celebration of life in the sense of a celebration of something. I believe it, I wear it, and I love and I respect it…”
Well, we totally agree you have to respect what this collection is bringing to the table. Sneakers have been re-imagined with a true high fashion meets street vibe. Lace up with a pair of these bad boys for around $350.
Kelly Rowland Glows on VMAs 2014 Red Carpet
Yesterday Kelly Rowland proved that sequins is a girls best friend! The glowing mommy to be cradled her growing baby bump in a glamorous pink Kaufman Franco sequined gown. The starlet accessorized the look with Jimmy Choo shoes and jewels from Lorraine Schwartz.
Hair Notes: We have to keep it one hundred and give up to the artists behind Kelly Rowland’s hair! We almost made her our Hair of the Week, but we didn’t just because she gets the nod so much 😉 Hair stylists Tymothe Wallace and George Papanikas hooked up Kelly’s crown of glory with a braided up-do that was highlighted to perfection.
Nicki Minaj Slays in Saint Laurent at MTV VMAs 2014
Nicki Minaj definitely fired some serious couture shots on the red carpet for the MTV VMAs! Minaj stunned in a leopard print dress by Saint Laurent which instantly became a fan hit. The mini dress was pure sophistication and Minaj’s Instagram followers rewarded the look with almost 300,000 likes in just 12 hours. So fellow fashion critics, what do you think of Nicki’s shoes and dress by Yves Saint Laurent?
Twinning! Jordin Sparks and Jason Derulo MTV VMAs 2014
The couple that dresses twins together, stays together? Could be a working solution to relationship bliss. Jordin Sparks and her man Jason Derulo were all smiles and kissy kissy on the red carpet at yesterday’s VMAs. The couple opted to wear white couture and which we thought was an amazing fashion choice for them. Keep twinning alive you guys, you look great!
Amber Rose Was Off the Chain For MTV VMAs 2014
The beautiful Amber Rose gave all new meaning to the expression, “whips and chains”… at least when it comes to the chains part. Rose wore a revealing chain dress that showed off every last curve. There are not a lot of daring divas that could pull this look off, but Amber has the body to do it. The dress to us kind of had a cool flapper vibe to it and it looks like Rose had fun twirling for the cameras.
Beauty Notes: Don’t you just love how Amber Rose can pull off such a great simple makeup look? Her signature pink lips and black eyeliner show off her stunning face without being overwhelming.
Make the Scarf Come Alive!
Let’s make the scarf come alive! Choose a color that matches what you are wearing but not exactly the same. If pairing a scarf with a flowing dress, coat or loose-fitting clothing add a belt to add dimension. However, put your belt a little above your waist so that your waist looks substantially smaller.
Fashion Spy: Of course this look can work in any season, but this fall and winter this trend is a must! We spied this fashion look at the Burberry Prorsum Fall/Winter 2014 show during London Fashion Week.
