29th GLAAD Media LA Awards Wrap-up

Last night(April 12th) the 29th Annual GLAAD Media Awards took place at The Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, CA. To see all of the celeb looks, click HERE and continue below for the wrap-up. 

Chloe Moretz stepped out in a mint & pink ruffle sequin THE VAMPIRE'S WIFE dress which stopped just above her ankles and featured padded shoulder. I like that Chloe took this risk but this dress does not work on her, especially those shoulders. 

Erica Ash was the bell of the ball wearing a RITA VINIERIS black off-the-shoulder layered lace gown. Natural curls, a colored lip and statement earring finished up her look. 

Britney Spears tries to hard to be sexy and she is wearing another look that proves. I am not a fan of this look because the GIANNINA AZAR dress feels very familiar. Also she looks very uncomfortable.

Bella Thorne in Rita Vinieris at 'The Midnight Sun' Rome Premiere

Bella Thorne has kicked off the promo tour for her new film 'The Midnight Sun' and yesterday(February 27th) she attended the premiere in Rome, Italy.

She posed on the carpet wearing a red off-the-shoulder RITA VINIERIS silk floor length with a v-neck bustier top and train detail. I actually like this dress on Bella, one of her best in a long time. 

However her make-up is not good at all. Accessorized with a selection of rings, colorful bracelets and silver watch, she finished up her look with a pinned up-do. What do you think of Bella's look?

2018 American Black Film Festival Honors Awards Wrap-up

Along with Tracee Ellis Ross, BET's 2018 American Black Film Festival Honors Awards took place at  The Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, CA. 

Angela Bassett rocked a the MANGISHI DOLL CO. 'Marsha Pencil II Chitenge printed calf length dress which featured crisscross leather straps and a handmade black fringe hem. She accessorized with DARRELL ROACH, VENDORAFA, DAVID YURMAN, GISMONDI 1754 & KYLECHAN DESIGN jewelry, a orange clutch and CASADEI sandals. Love that she is continuing to wear African designs which is probably a homage to her #1 film Black Panther. Side parted big curly topped off her winning look.

Meta Golding could not be missed wearing a yellow sleeveless MARTIN GRANT SPRING 2017 high-low ruffle hem dress with contrasting black tulle underlining. SIMONE G jewelry, a black clutch & sandals and straight tresses finished up her look. 

Issa Rae looked beautiful as well wearing a OSCAR DE LA RENTA SPRING 2018 strapless column dress which featured a gold beaded neckline and navy dress. The dress looks like it could have been shorten an inch or two, the proportions looks a bit off and the creases are unfortunate. Accessorized with gold jewelry, she finished up with a flawless beauty look.

Gabrielle Union in Rita Vinieris at the 47th NAACP Image Awards

Gabrielle Union attended the 47th NAACP Image Awards on Friday(February 5th) at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium in Pasadena, CA.

She hit the red carpet in a RITA VINIERIS 2016 black sheer lace panel v-neck gown with an dramatic tulle train detail. Gabby appears to have had the v-neck shorten from the look book version which I think worked in her favor.

However I wish she added a colored lip to enhance the overall appeal of her look. A high ponytail adorned with a black double headband, JIMMY CHOO heels and NIWAKA jewelry completed her look.
