Rihanna’s Wild Thoughts Manolo Blahnik Poison Ivy Heels

Yeah Rih! Days ago we were all just excited about DJ Khaled and his son Asahd Tuck Khaled finally getting the visuals and vocals in. Then the real surprise occurred, Rihanna’s undeniable style moment. Her blue dress was sexy, but it was really her heels that stole the show!

Not too long after Wild Thoughts debut, news hit which later was confirmed by Manolo Blahnik himself that the shoes were in fact from Rihanna’s upcoming collection. The now infamous caged Manolo Blahnik Poison Ivy sandal heels will retail for a whopping $2,325! Certainly a splurge or one of those deals where all your girls pitch in and share a pair.

The rest of Rihanna’s collection with Manolo Blahnik is just as stunning. The utilization of precious stones as well as clear straps maintain its theme throughout. We love the details because it perfectly marries indulgence with tons of sex appeal. Nevertheless, we are not surprised that Blahnik and Rihanna have created such magic. For this is not the duo’s first rodeo together.

Last year, Rihanna and Manolo Blahnik released the Denim Desserts collection which had wild success. Therefore, this makes this latest collaboration the pair’s second collection together. The new collection is called, So Stoned and will be released on July 6th. Happy saving dolls and may the odds forever be in your favor when it comes to getting your hands on RiRi’s shoes. We all know they have the tendency to go fast!

So where did Miss Harlow have her golden moment? Winnie was an attendee at the Inaugural fundraising dinner of the Petra Stunt Foundation. The event is held in London, England.

Therefore, it makes perfect sense why Winnie Harlow’s gown is of British design. The Temperley London Carnation Long Dress is from the brand’s Pre-Fall 2017 collection. The model who originally wore the Carnation Long Dress was styled with an accompanying black sash.

However, for her take on the dress, Winnie opted to do without it. Moreover, she served the matchy-matchy trend. She paired her Carnation Long Dress with matching tone shoes. A trend that at times is a little tricky to pull off. Yet, Winnie Harlow did so seamlessly.

On social many fashionistas instantly fell in love with Harlow’s look. However, some of them wondered, who is Temperley London? Temperley London is an iconic British fashion brand that is a celebrity favorite. What famous faces have rocked this high-end couture label? Thandie Newton, Frieda Pinto, Izzy Bizu, Kate Hudson, Alessandra Anbrosio, Lianne La Havas, Salma Hayek and Rita Ora just to name a few.

Saints by SJ, Black Girls Killing the Fashion Industry

Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 16, 2017June 16, 2017Leave a Comment

Naomi Campbell, Iman, Tyra Banks, Beverly Johnson, Donayale Luna, Jasmine Tookes and Jourdan Dunn. All black supermodels who have help push open the door wider in the fashion industry in order to allow for more diversity. Now name twenty black designers. Sadly that is a little harder to do for most and only goes to prove there is still more work to do within the fashion realm. Nevertheless, fashion label Saints by SJ is working hard to change the style game, yet again.

Saints by SJ, Black Girls Killing the Fashion Industry

So then, who is this new fashion brand that is taking the industry by storm? Sisters Natacha and Anise Saint-Juste, make up the fashion design-duo behind SAINTS by S.J. The Haitian born designers know all about honing one’s craft as well as “keeping it in the family.”

Apprenticeship under the watchful eye of their father allowed Natacha and Anise to gain the same level of couture aptitude as any student attending a school for fashion design.

This education gave the girls much confidence to take on the beast known as the fashion industry. They recently showcased their Saints by SJ Spring/Summer 2017 collection which oozed of sophistication as well as romanticism. The sisters are a fresh breath of style air that are plowing the road and movement of more black girls making waves in fashion. The diversity tide is certainly turning and thanks to designers such as Saints by SJ it is having one powerful effect!

As far as celebrity OOTDs go, this is certainly one of the most sultry looks we have spotted this week. Our favorite Golden Barbie’s cut-out dress is from a boutique called Eden Sky. The store is a west coast fixture that can be found in cities such as Torrance, Los Angeles as well as Bakersfield.

Don’t live near an Eden Sky location? No problem! Word on the fashion street is that an Eden Sky website is coming to the interwebs soon. Therefore, the opportunity to shop Jasmine’s ensemble online as well as other Eden Sky merchandise is definitely in the works.

Nevertheless, speaking of Jasmine, let’s get back to her outfit! How did she accessorize as well as complete her date night look? Well, she started off by including a girl’s best friend… diamonds. Sander’s gorgeous diamond accessories are by Bulgari.

Moreover, her matching black ankle strap heels, are a lovely design by Stuart Weitzman. Ankle strap heels are majorly trending this summer as well as cut-out dresses as seen here on Miss Sanders. Cut-outs are a great way to add even more sass to any gown, skirt or top. So then, go ahead and indulge in these trends to look hot on a date or during any fun girl’s nights.

Therefore, why not flex your fashion prowess right off the bat with a bag sure to garner some attention? Feast your couture eyes on the Moschino Hollywood Patch Backpack!

Fashionable Mention: Moschino Hollywood Patch Backpack

This backpack truly is every bit of Hollywood. Seriously, just for a moment, humor us and think about Tinseltown. Being the entertainment capital of the world its glitzy, bold, effortlessly cool and with newcomers streaming in everyday screaming, “Hey I’m a rock star!”

So then, for any creative to name their accessory after Hollywood the piece just has to be a showstopper. Enter the Moschino brand with their wild and cool leader, Jeremy Scott. Designer Jeremy Scott is always a genius when it comes to creating pieces that not only get people talking, but have them doing a double take. The Moschino Hollywood Patch Backpack gains plenty of spotlight due to its ‘in your face’ patchwork.

Patchwork always looks edgy because it has a very DIY feel and vibe. It looks very personalized in many cases even if it is not. Furthermore, the patches give the backpack a very “Rebel Without Cause” flair and is perfect for the girl who wants to show off her boisterous side.

Not a patch fan? Well, how do you feel about Spongebob (LOL)? Yep, Mr. Squarepants is back in the Moschino lineup. We spotted the Bob in the Moschino Resort 18 collection. Therefore, whether you are feeling edgy or just childhood nostalgic, Moschino has a backpack to suit your mood.
