Solange Gets Married…&& Slays.



November 16, 2014

Image by Rog Walker

Congratulations are in order for Solange Knowles & Alan Ferguson who tied the knot this weekend in New Orleans.

From the pictures, it looks like the event was a very dapper affair. All guests were instructed to wear white, which made for a stunning visual.

Always one to eschew tradition, Solange and her video-director husband arrived to the ceremony on painted white bikes decorated with flowers. That ride would have been tough in a wedding dress but the singer had no problem by rocking an off-white Stephane Rolland jumpsuit with plunging neckline.

The couple looked just as stunning during the ceremony with the groom in a shades of white Lanvin tux and the bride in a custom design by her close friend Humberto Leon for Kenzo. Solange’s cape is just everything!

A perfect red lip and gold cuffs completed the ‘fit. (Curious to know what red lippie Solange was wearing!)

Vogue got the exclusive photos on the wedding and shared these words from Solange: “Everyone I worked with on the wedding are friends who I love,” said the bride via email earlier today. “Everything was a labor of love.”

Photographer Rog Walker captured the highlights of the day. From his portraits, it’s easy to see there was a lot of love to go around. The guests looked so chic in white and of course big sister Beyoncé and mom Tina Knowles were in attendance for the nuptials as well.

And that is how you slay at your wedding!

2013 Primetime Emmy Awards Recap. Favorites.



September 26, 2013

The 2013 Primetime Emmy Awards took place this weekend, hosted by Neil Patrick Harris. In typical fashion, I didn’t watch the show (which didn’t get rave reviews anyway) but of course I tuned in to watch the red carpet. Overall I was pretty underwhelmed. There were a few standouts that I really enjoyed but most stars played it safe or missed the mark.

The red carpet looks I enjoyed:

Rose Byrne in Calvin Klein Collection.

Rose Byrne in Calvin Klein Collection.

This is what I’m talking about. Crop-top on the red carpet, done right. I love this two-piece look from Rose Byrne. The color is perfect, accessories simple, skirt length just right, and body on point. I love this look from head-to-toe. Understated, effortless, and still chic. She was easily my favorite of the night.

Kate Mara in J. Mendel.

Kate Mara was an (edgy) vision in white. I love her in this J. Mendel dress right off the runway from the Spring 2014 collection. She is working that high slit and the hair and makeup are right on. The straight bob with the deep part and the nude smokey eye pull this all together.

Lena Headey in Alessandra Rich.

I’m not super familiar with ‘Game of Thrones’ star Lena Headey but I really like her look for this event. Black often reads boring on the red carpet but I like this lace creation from London-based designer Alessandra Rich. This see-thru lace number is a risk, one that I think paid off. L.A.M.B. white pumps and a cool ring from Tina Thor complete the look.

Tina Fey in Narcisco Rodriguez.

Tina-Fey-Emmys

My first thought when I saw Tina Fey on the red carpet? “Tina Fey has found her sexy!”. Gone are the boring black tea-length dresses and stuffy up-do’s. Kudos to Tina and her stylist for stepping outside the box and showing those curves (that we should have seen awhile ago). This cobalt blue is perfection and the halter neckline is so great on her. The loose waves and Fred Leighton jewelry are great compliments to the dress.

Haute Obsession. Jessica Biel in Mugler. Comic-Con 2012.



July 17, 2012

So, the Comic-Con red carpet hasn’t always been the place for the most fashionable outfits. In recent years with the rise of comics coming to the big screen, we’ve seen more A-list celebs bring whimsy or casual chic looks to this event.

One glance at Jessica Biel’s look for the ‘Total Recall’ panel at Comic-Con and I was hooked. I’m obsessed with peplums at the moment and this structured version from Thierry Mugler is amazing. The all-white with the neon pink accent is so perfect right now. Neon colors popped up for spring and continue to bring freshness and fun through the summer.

Jessica paired a semi-sheer tee from Joe’s Jeans with the PVC Mugler skirt from the Resort 2013 collection. Brian Atwood ‘Starlet’ pumps in hot pink hit a high note. The wavy hair, simple makeup, and clean accessories are soft but on-point, creating a flawless look. I’m usually underwhelmed with most of the red carpet choices from the future Mrs. Justin Timberlake but she can do no wrong here.

that rock.!

 

Are you loving this look as much as I am?

Oui Oui Jenny.!



June 18, 2011

I saw this picture of Jennifer Lopez outside her hotel in Paris and just had to share. Jenny from the block is looking extra fabulous in this Fall 2011 Rachel Zoe ‘Cameron’ tuxedo dress in white. J.Lo is in Europe promoting her new single “On the Floor”.  Everything about this look screams diva and she wears it well. Even the sunglasses are on point, they remind me of my new Dior sunnies. The 41 year-old mother of twins is working this look to perfection.

You’ll be able to get this dress and the whole Rachel Zoe collection at Neiman Marcus in late july/early august.

I Want It: White Wide Leg Pants



June 5, 2011

Two of the biggest trends this spring/summer have been the color white and wide leg pants. A co-worker of mine wore a pair of white wide leg pants (I think they were high-waisted too) to work this week and I decided I had to have a pair. I decided to do this post so I could find the perfect ones for me.

Runway Inspirations

 

Options


J.Crew – Maddie Pant, $295

Theory – “Nalanie”, $235

Free People – linen wide leg pants, $98

Gap – perfect khaki pant, $49.50

I think I like the Zara and Theory options the best. I will be on a mission to find the best fitting pair and let you know how it turns out.

Haute Covers :: Penelope Cruz. US Vogue June 2011.



May 22, 2011

Just got my copy of the latest issue of Vogue. I am absolutely in love with the cover. Penelope Cruz just looks amazing. Not always a fan of the close-up covers but this one is spot on. Mario Testino shot this spread where the new mom wears summery looks from Dolce & Gabbana. The cover is so simple and Penelope’s freckles…there’s just something about them that I love. The sexy white lace Dolce & Gabbana captures a clean, crisp, and cool summer. Pick up your copy today and go see Penelope Cruz and Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Carribean 4: On Stranger Tides.
