I decided to take a break from my New York Fashion Week coverage. Although fashion week ended last Thursday there are still a few more designers I will feature because I was blown away by their creations. Take a look at these amazing dresses on some amazing wmen. from the NAACP Image Awards.

Pops of color definitely brightens up anyone’s mood and this is true with Tia Mowry and Keke Palmer

Vanessa Williams and Tracee Ellis Ross stunned everyone in their black gowns.

To round up the 43rd Image Awards Red Carpet we have Meagan Good, Holly Robinson Pete and Taraji P. Henson who gave us a touch of glam.

Hey lovelies!

I hope you all had an incredible weekend. Now it is back to the grind-work, school, etc. So like we do almost every Monday, here is the rundown of some of our favorite celebs and what they wore this weekend. Check out this weeks’ style files.

Christina Milian, Brandi and Selita Ebanks went flirty, bold, and sparkly on us this weekend. All three ladies gave us a little leg and great smiles. Brandy’s look is my favorite because it gives such a modern twist on one of Michael Jackson’s signature styles.

Next up we have Naomi Harris, Melanie Fiona and Lala Anthony. Actress Naomi Harris gives us a sweet and innocent take on a all black look. Usually when people rock all black it is edgy or sexy, but this look is on a different spectrum and I love it. Melanie Fiona jazzed up her black and white jumpsuit with printed bracelets and a bold lip. She shows us how to incorporate color in our everyday style without being to overbearing. Last but not least, Lala showed some legs in a red-orange shirt dress, brown laceup peep toe booties and quilted chanel bag. I love color so I’m going with Lala in this set.

Zoe Saldana’s casual look is always on point. Her style can easily be translated for all women. Mel B. has new hair! She rocked a blue jumpsuit with brown accents. Perfect way to pair neutrals. Rihanna didn’t stray from her new look. She kept it edgy with a pair of leather pants, bold leather jacket, and cat-eye shades. Mel B. gets my vote this round. Her look has a touch of glam.

Finally we get to Christina Milian (again) and Meagan Good. Both ladies were at a party for the launch of the new chicken McBites at McDonalds. With these two we get glam and grit. Meagan Good’s look is gritty Cali while Christina spices things up with her accessories and leopard print heels.

Who rocked it for you this weekend?

From classic tailored looks like Mary J. Blige and Rachel Roy to pops of color like Jessica White the featured ladies are bringing it.Tiffany Hines look is perfect for a day like today with all of the rain. She gives a chic yet comfortable look. Kelly Rowland adds the perfect element of color to brighten up the grey dress. These looks are simple but adds the right elements of class and color to make them all pop.

If this isn’t perfection, I don’t know what is! Tracee Ellis Ross looks AMAZING! Yes amazing. It takes a lot of confidence to wear a red suit. All of the attention will definitely be on you. I mean who wouldn’t stop and stare at Tracee in awe in this outfit? I know I would lol. She pulls this monochromatic look off so well. The accented gold jewelry is a great touch.  You can get this look with similar items below. The following items cost no more than $100 and are available in a number of sizes including plus size for the curvy girls.
