There was so much to love about Vera Wang’s Spring/Summer 2017 collection. The tailoring was off the charts. The designs read fierce and chic. Nevertheless, one pair of sunnies had us in love at first glance. Today’s obsession, the NYFW Vera Wang Round Frame Sunglasses.

Ugh, could Vera Wang just hand us an oxygen mask because she is giving us life! These glasses just simply stood out. Even coming down the runway your eyes just instantly dart to them.

The magnetic pull to these shades only increased once we noticed they come in multiple tints. The straight up black ones has us craving a leather jacket and cigarette. Hence, they’re edgy as all get out.

Nevertheless, the silver-tone version gave us futuristic vibes but with a retro grunge twist. However, you slice and dice these NYFW Vera Wang Round Frame sunglasses are a must-have. We spent the night hunting them down till we found them on Farfetch! These chic babies retail for $405 and can be shopped now. Oh! First time ordering on Farfetch.com?

Okay Nicki baby we see you girl! Miss Minaj posed it out for the cameras in a La Perla Neoprene Desire Jumpsuit which retails for $3,844. The detailing of the jumpsuit showed off Nicki’s sought after physique and cough, girls (LOL).

The cute jumpsuit also includes cut-outs that trace the shapely outline of the lady wearing it. We love this aspect because it gives the illusion of a smaller form. Therefore, if you are packing like a girl from a Sir Mix A Lot music video then this fashion will give you a more slimming effect instantly. It is just like if you were to wear stripes vertically instead of horizontally. Here’s a closer look at her La Perla jumpsuit:

The lingerie inspired trend continues to gain speed among the rich and famous. You may be reminded of Amber Rose’s Tom Ford slash La Perla VMAs look. Nevertheless, we digress.

Minaj finished off her ensemble with nude tinted heels and a Chanel handbag. Her jewelry stayed within the gold family. Accessories included a watch, rings and chain link bracelet.

Hair Notes: Nicki Minaj rocked some serious hair down-to-there with her La Perla Neoprene Desire Jumpsuit. Moreover, she kept her tresses straight and sleek. The overall combination reads seductive and foxy chic.
