It was a packed out house but we spotted Danielle Brooks, Camren Bicodova and Kat DeLuna front and center. Brooks killed it in typical Chromat couture. Chromat is known for their edgy, strong and sassy aesthetic. Furthermore, many popular pieces by the label include corseted or cage elements and detailing.

Danielle got into formation for Chromat’s NYFW runway show in a sexy caged dress. Her black and white little number accentuated her gorgeous physique showing off her hourglass figure. The actress finished off her look with lace up thigh high heels.

Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show

Arianne Suggs February 10, 2017February 10, 2017Leave a Comment

The Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show beautifully fused together 90’s hip hop trends with modern style. Nevertheless, the inspiration behind the amazing collection has an even deeper meaning. Fashion’s rising duo is using their couture brand to start a revolution. One that they desire will give hope as well as power to the people.

Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show

Nicholas and Christopher Kunz are the genius masterminds behind the Nicholas K label. The brother and sister couture designers have been deeply affected by the politics of America. From the recent ban and administration changes Nicholas and Christopher began to feel as though things in America were going backwards.

Enter their Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 collection. First of all, it was important to the designers to show inclusion and diversity. For their NYFW show they made sure to cast models of all shades and tones. Next, they let their clothes do the rest of the talking.

The garments are a throw back to the golden era of hip hop, the 90s. Oversized coats, slouchy pants and a bold color palette (black, gold, red) brought the decade before the 2000’s back to the catwalk.

Also, the strong accessories gave the collection a very activist and rebel vibe. Models hit the catwalk in berets, humongous septum rings as well as earrings. The resulting look immediately made us think black panther and underground grunge.

As you can see Nicolas K definitely left their mark on NYFW and we can’t wait to future designs from the growing brand. Nevertheless, there’s more to see so keep your fashionable eyes on 1966 as we bring you the hottest moments of fashion week!

Arianne SuggsUpdated on February 10, 2017February 10, 2017Leave a Comment

Here we go with another fab celebrity sighting! The beyond gorgeous Teyana Taylor Attends La Perla NYFW Show in true diva style. From her lovely hair color to her dazzling ensemble, Taylor made quite the statement.

Teyana Taylor Attends La Perla NYFW Show

Where is baby Junie?! As much as we love seeing Teyana and her beautiful daughter out and about; it’s still nice to spot TT enjoying a night out on the town solo. Moreover, what better place to be than taking in the voguish designs of New York Fashion Week?

Day one of NY’s fashion week really kicked things off with a major bang. All the shows from morning till night were full of trendy surprises. Nonetheless, La Perla immediately got the crowd in an uproar right at the start. Hint: Involves a very famous supermodel and more on that later!

La Perla is well known for their luxe, glamorous lingerie. Therefore, it makes perfect sense that their attendees would possess the same vibes. Teyana Taylor awesomely fits the bill of sassy and chic.

Taylor’s OOTD for the show fell in line perfectly with La Perla’s Fall/Winter 2017 theme incorporating the beauty of florals. Teyana brought the fashion heat in a garment from the La Perla Spring 2017 collection.

She finished her look with a fur to stay warm in the snowy New York weather. Also, can we give it up one time for her vivacious and boisterous hair color! We love how the bold tint compliments her outfit and blends due to matching one of the shades found in the print of her gown. Moreover, the deep middle part and slanted cut add some sleek, modern edginess. Bravo!

Diggy Simmons Walks For Dolce and Gabbana Fall-Winter 17

Arianne Suggs January 20, 2017January 20, 2017Leave a Comment

Diggy Simmons is all grown up and still making all us girls want to throw him our digits (LOL)! Simmons is following in the steps of his sisters and getting down on the fashion tip. His beautiful sisters, Angela and Vanessa, in the past have designed stylish collections right down to shoe wear. However, Diggy isn’t going that particular route. You see Diggy doesn’t create designer fashions, he just rocks the heck out of them! His big fashion is definitely one for the books. Let us tell you more about Diggy Simmons Walks For Dolce and Gabbana Fall-Winter 17.

Diggy Simmons Walks For Dolce and Gabbana Fall-Winter 17

People have their squads, tribes or a crew. However, the Dolce and Gabbana brand for their recent menswear runway show presented their DG millenials. The new crop of male models that are giving the fashion house a more exclusive look.

For his walk down the runway Simmons wore a black tailored jacket with floral accents. These details harmonized very well with his floral print pant. We loved the use of a bow tie which gave the ensemble even more character.

Nevertheless, it was refreshing to see florals apart of a fall/winter collection. Normally, we all are very familiar with seeing such a look during the spring season. Winter fashion tends to lean more toward the drab end of things with tones including dark blues, grays and black. However, this change of pace gives guys the opportunity and freedom to break the rules as well as experiment with not color but prints. Love this pairing great job Diggy you should do this more often!

Spotted: Rihanna Rocks Burberry Fall 2016 Coat in NYC

Arianne SuggsUpdated on January 11, 2017January 11, 2017Leave a Comment

We never tire of a stylish Rihanna sighting. The fashion icon knows how to keep us all on our swank toes regardless of the season. It may be cold outside in the streets of New York City, however Rihanna is still bringing the trendy heat. What did she wear? Last night we spotted the singer and actress in a ritzy Burberry Fall 2016 Coat.

Spotted: Rihanna Rocks Burberry Fall 2016 Coat in NYC

Recent style sightings of Rihanna have included more laid back fashions as she shoots scenes for her new movie. An all female version of Ocean’s Eleven. However, yesterday Rihanna had to let everyone know she still knows her way around designer labels. She killed it in a green snakeskin coat from the Burberry Fall 2016 collection.

What we love most about RiRi is that she is not afraid to take risks. The particular coat she wore was styled completely different than it was on the runway. Actually, it was a total 180. Burberry’s catwalk look was more formal and incorporated more prints.

Nevertheless, Rihanna paired her Burberry Fall 2016 coat with pink sweat pants as well as a pink sweat shirt with a hoodie. A perfect example on how to blend high-end with more relaxed pieces.

Styling Notes: Who says sandals have to only be worn during warmer weather? If we have said it once, we will say it again, great fashion knows no bounds! Just because it is not spring or summer, it does not mean you have to retire one set of shoes for closed-in ones. If you are not going to be exposed to the elements for extended amounts of time go ahead and break out heels with the more open design.

The dress, the bag and the gloves. Really what’s not to like? Posen killed it with this redesign. Also, the color choice is simply perfection as well. Plums are so royal and luxe. Furthermore, the length is appropriate and the collar is voguish without looking overworked. Every design element fits in seamlessly with the rest.

Get Your Man Right: Versace S/S 17

Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 22, 2016June 22, 2016Leave a Comment

It’s been pretty much unanimous, but the verdict is in… men are not big fans of the “man purse.” Most gentlemen never have to worry about hauling their valuables because unlike women’s clothing theirs often comes with pockets or other nifty compartments. On the real though, what really are guys carrying besides car keys, a wallet with pertinent identification and a Carmex Chapstick? Well, on the occasion they are jet-setting or carrying something larger than a pair of shades it is still possible for them to do so chicly. Versace pulled out all the stops in men’s fashion for the Versace SS 17 runway show and proved that a man bag can still look studly and totally amazing.

Versace SS 17

There were so many highlights during the high-end fashion show but one item that stood out to us was the Versace Empire Bag. Able to be carried with the same authority as a briefcase yet with much more real estate (room). Plus, the tint of the bag truly is key. Any guy who struggles with color coordination would not need to fear the Versace SS 17 Empire Bag. Thanks to its neutral color it will match well with a variety of ensembles.

Let’s quickly review the rest of the outfit that accompanied the Empire bag. Two words: The Trench. One classic staple that should be found in every guys wardrobe is a trench coat. Any color that suits his personal style but black or camel toned trenchcoats always look trendy. In such a coat a guy can go from looking like a couch potato to “Yes, I am ready to meet the parentals.”
