And the 2014 CFDA Fashion Icon Award Goes To…

And the 2014 CFDA Fashion Icon Award goes to…

RRCFDA14.jpg

Rihanna is wearing a custom Adam Selman fishnet dress, that was hand embellished with over 216,000 Swarovski crystals.

It’s no surprise that Rihanna won the 2014 CFDA Fashion Icon Award.  She can pretty much put on anything and make it work.  Love it or hate it, whatever she wears, she “OWNS” it.

“The dress is just fishnet and crystals and a couple of fingers crossed.” ~ Designer Adam Selman.

“As far as I could remember, fashion has always been my defense mechanism. Even as a child I remember thinking, She can beat me, but she cannot beat my outfit." ~ Rihanna

“As far as I could remember, fashion has always been my defense mechanism. Even as a child I remember thinking, she can beat me, but she cannot beat my outfit.”
~ Rihanna

We all know that Rihanna has worn her fair share of revealing outfits on and off stage, so lasts nights dress was no shock factor. I can’t think of too many people that can pull off this look.  Like everything else, I’m sure there will be cheap imitations of this dress making it’s  way  down the fashion chain.

2014CFDAFashionAwards

Rihanna was’t the only one who stole the show at the 2014 CFDA Fashion Awards with her 216,000 Swarovski crystal sheer dress.  I loved Solange’s look (of course.)  Naomi Campbell looked stunning as usual (work it Ms. Campbell.) Joan’s dress was cute and fun. Lupita once again, nailed it. I love the color blocking she has going on.  Last but not least 2 Broke Girls star Beth bares her midriff in a green crop top and flowing skirt. I love green, it’s  a color that compliments a lot of people’s skin tone. 

Are you feeling Rihanna’s dress? Was it a fashion fav or a fashion fail?

    Rihanna is a great woman who can fit to any style of fashion but I believe this dress was doing a lot more than needed.

May was a mix of getting dressed, figuring life out, creating content, romanticizing small moments, and reminding myself that growth doesn’t always look loud. 

A little fashion, a little chaos, a lot of memories.

This @fabletics set is comfortable enough to nap in, cute enough to be seen in. The older I get, the more I understand that effortless style is the real luxury. Give me soft fabrics, wide leg pants, and an outfit that looks elevated without trying too hard. Fashion girls know the vibe is looking put together while still feeling like yourself. #fashionstyledetroit #fableticspartner

I’ve always wanted to build a creative community where the energy is right, the vibes are genuine, and people can walk into a room and instantly feel welcomed.
.
Our first Creator Mix as @detroitcreativecommunity meant a lot to me. Seeing so many new faces, familiar faces, creatives connecting, laughing, collaborating, and just enjoying the moment reminded me exactly why we started this.
.
This is more than an event to me. It’s a space for creatives to feel inspired, seen, and connected. And we’re just getting started @detroitfinds313 @dodreamon @astoldbyarielb @ashleigh.lashawn 
.
Thanks to all the amazing sponsors who helped make this night possible

You can have a whole outfit… and then you throw on a leather moto jacket and suddenly everything makes sense.

Petite girls aren’t supposed to wear this. Let me tell you now…I don’t care. 
. 
Let me be honest with y’all Petite Besties, I saw these wide leg jeans, I knew they were too long for my 5’1” frame, and I bought them anyway. And I have…Zero regrets.
The belt is holding everything together. The mesh is giving drama. And the heels? The heels are doing HEAVY lifting….shoot they knew what they signed up for. 
This is what petite fashion is really about,not waiting for the perfect fit, but styling it your way!!! 
Save this one besties. We are NOT letting long inseams win.

Hey Fashion Besties! Weekend photo dump because we stayed DRESSED both days!!!!
Saturday gave cargo & stripes with a little elevated casual energy. Sunday said let’s add some edge….blazer, sheer tights, combat boots, and we meant BUSINESS 🖤
**STYLE TIP*** a leather blazer is the ultimate shortcut to looking put together. Throw it over anything and the outfit is instantly elevated. 
Which day would you wear? Saturday or Sunday? Drop it below 👇🏾
