Rowland always slays, but this particular look just gives us great vibes. Her stylist briefly described Kelly’s look as, “Matchy, matchy. The Whoa Baby book press run continues with this off the shoulder denim moment.”

What exactly did Kelly wear? She rocked a top by Roberto Rodriguez, jean bottoms by Mother Denim as well as heels by Tom Ford. Her brighter toned heels were a nice touch that effortlessly broke up the monotony of the overall look. Therefore, when wearing one shade or style incorporate a pop of color. It can add a little fun as well as dimensionality.

Want to make this look your own on a tight budget? You may already have this particular style waiting for you in your closet. The denim suit is more seamless when the jean rinse matches on top and bottom. So then, aim to have the denim shades be a splitting image of each other.

Moreover, many brands are selling off-the-shoulder jean shirts due to it being such a hot trend of 2017. You can purchase one of those options or search your wardrobe for an oversized denim top. Simply leave a few of the top buttons unbuttoned so that you can wear the shirt down over your shoulders. See, piece of cake!

Shangani Fashion – Where African Fashions Meet the Stylish Traveler

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 7, 2017April 6, 2017Leave a Comment

Shangani Fashion’s debut presentation during New York Fashion Week conveys contemporary cuts that are accented with vintage accessories. Shangani Fashion designs are a juxtaposition of culture and style. Shangani is an African tribe that lived near the Shangani River in Zimbabwe, Africa. The tribe was named after its founder. Moreover, the name “Shoshangani” means traveler. Therefore, Shangani Fashion is a brand inspired by the experience of travel and the exposure of different cultures.

Creations by Shangani’s Designers merge their travel experiences with colorful ethnic prints and contemporary shapes. Their point of view creates a high fashion, ready-to-wear look. Nevertheless, traditional African fabrics with a modern mix, is the real passion behind Shangani Fashions.

Shangani Fashion – Where African Fashions Meet the Stylish Traveler

The design duo collaborating on the aesthetics is Fashion Designers Mary Moore and Elesia Peterman. Moore is a graduate of the University of Zimbabwe who enjoys global jets-setting. Moore explains, “My inspirations are fusions of my cultural, travel experiences as well as my Zimbabwean heritage and styles. Shoppers will find divers influences from the Caribbean, European and Middle-Eastern expressions in my fashions. [However] I enjoy mixing various African influences with a contemporary cut and shape for a modernized look. The result is a ready-to-wear brand that is suitable for all occasions.”

“My creative inspiration comes from a fusion of time, epoch periods and cultures, while remaining Afrocentric,” states Elesia Peterman. “I want our line to show that African print transcends. The looks can be worn strictly as traditional wear, but the looks can also be incorporated in business and everyday casual use.

What makes our line unique is that it isn’t just an African meets Western cohesion. Our goal is to reach and inspire a much bigger market. Our line is an international fusion. Also, being a millennial, I feel I can relate with the style trends my peers are excited about. I want to use clothing design as my voice and demonstration of creativity.”

Shangani Fashion

Shangani offers looks for both men and women. Moreover, the brand intends to expand the menswear line for upcoming seasons. The garments are wearable for business casual or as formal wear using materials that certainly last.

Depending on the type of garment design, the brand uses one-hundred percent cotton, applied with Dutch Wax print, denim and other uniquely blended materials of the finest quality.

Fashionable Mention: Knit Pants From Rodarte SS/17 Collection

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 7, 2017April 4, 2017Leave a Comment

Knitwear continues to dominate the season and we continue love every last variation of it! When someone mentions knits you instantly think sweaters, scarves or perhaps mittens. Yet, pants never seem to be quite on the radar. Nevertheless, Rodarte for their Spring/ Summer 2017 collection sent a very eye-catching pair of knit pants down the catwalk. Oh darlings, yes we dare!

Fashionable Mention: Knit Pants From Rodarte SS/17 Collection

We had to make these knit pants a fashionable mention due to three reasons. They showcase ingenuity, they are modern but they also possess a nice vintage and retro vibe. We love when designers infuse some throwback sparks into their fashions and this look was definitely a success.

The pants are actually apart of an entire set. The top and pant combo is a delicate and deliciously feminine ensemble of knits. The neutral color is very spring and makes it easy to pair as separates with other garments within your closet.

Nevertheless, our eyes immediately do a bulls-eye target on the pants and pants alone. We adore the length of these knit pants because they almost reach completely over the heels. With the sock and heel revival still going strong, this particular look plays into that trend somewhat.

Moreover, the flare detailing is beyond chic and give us 70’s glamour. It is a nice touch of flare without screaming for attention. Plus, these pants have a look and feel of leggings. Pair these knit pants with an oversized or loose shirt and dangling accessories and you are sure to be a major hit.

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 7, 2017March 27, 2017Leave a Comment

Well, dolls it looks like another one bites the fashion dust. Bebe stores closing are changing the face of the shopping experience… again. The brand just announced that they are closing the doors to all their stores. The shocking news sent chills down many stylish spines. Especially, since there seems to be a scary growing trend of stores leaving the famous mall scene. What the hanger is going on?

Bebe Stores Closing Doors For Good

The reign of the mall is quickly losing its dominion. The past couple years has seen the store closing plaque spread faster than a hurricane wind. Many factors have played into this shopping phenomena. Changing markets, out of touch marketing, overpriced items and sustainability are just a few of them.

Nevertheless, this has not prevented ladies from all over the globe from being upset over Bebe stores closing. Even on social platforms girls are speaking up about this situation. Here are a few of their thoughts:

“So sad Bebe is closing.”

“All stores are closing down! Booo.”

“No don’t close Bebe. #BebeBabe”

“I can’t believe that all stores are going to close.”

“I can’t begin to say how much I love this store! Whenever I visit Bebe I want to buy everything! I receive so many compliments on my clothes and I never look the same as everyone else! Everything I have bought at Bebe has held up really well. It’s such an unique brand. Even though a lot of items there are dry clean only, the bill is worth it! #BebeGirl #LoveBebe #Heartbroken”

Many of us considered ourselves to be Bebe babes. So seeing such a store not able to survive puts a grim outlook on other brands’ futures. However, there is hope, a ray of light if you will, at the end of the tunnel. Bebe assures their fans that they will still be operative online. Therefore, if you want Bebe fashions you will need to become an online shopper.

Beyonce Wears Perfect Little Black Dress

ArianneUpdated on March 14, 2017March 14, 2017Leave a Comment

Well alright, alright, alright! The woman that coined the phrase “flawless” is surely looking like that and more! The mommy-to-be of twins is not allowing her pregnancy change up her Sasha Fierce style. While most expectant ladies would be turning to sweats and oversized dresses, the Queen of the Hive is boldly showcasing her bump. We spotted Beyonce in the perfect little black dress and she is absolutely fabulous.

Beyonce Wears Perfect Little Black Dress

There are some fashions that should be found in every woman’s closet and one is the perfect little black dress. That is because it does not matter the season a LBD (little black dress) will always look modern and chic. It literally never goes out of style. Therefore, if you want a garment that is trendy and will outlast other trends a black dress is the way to go.

Beyonce turned up the heat with her black gown by incorporating another hot 2017 trend, cut-outs. Cut-outs are the perfect way to add a slight touch of sexiness. Moreover, Bey kept her accessories to a minimum so as not to overpower her LBD. She finished her look with a choker, ring, thigh high boot heels, matching black handbag and silver earrings.

Hair Notes: When your dress has that sauce you don’t need to overdo it. Think like Beyonce and fashion those locks into a voguish chignon. Add drama like Queen Bey by creating a deep middle part and leaving some face framing strands to flow freely. The result will be beautiful and alluring.
