Happy Thursday everyone!

I know it is a little to early to do the weekly style recap, but I just couldn’t wait until Friday because these ladies look AMAZING.

First we have Janet Jackson looking radiant in this all black number on the Jay Leno show. She is definitely glowing. Makes me want to order Nutrisystem. lol

La La shows us the perfect way to add color in to our winter wardrobe

Keke Palmer is such a classy young lady. She deserves more recognition just for being positive! She is definitely a great example for the younger generation.

Tika is definitely in my Top 5 of best dressed celebrities. I love the mosaic print dress. Her skin is flawless! Off to drink more water lol.

  • Melanie Fiona looked simply stunning in this black gown. I think of the 3 Es when I see Melanie: Elegant, Effortless, Edgy. She looks great.
  • Paula Patton has been on the press machine for the new Mission Impossible movie. This look is perfect for a holiday party.
  • Gabrielle Union paired this lovely pink dress with black and white pumps. I love the color contrast.
  • Mary, Mary, Mary! I think she always look great in white, but this is just thebomb.com. There’s nothing else that needs to be said except “Lisa Ray, you must retire wearing white”
  • Estelle looks great as well. The purple jumpsuit compliments her very well and I love the accessories.
  • Tracee Ellis Ross…can she do anything wrong fashion wise? I don’t think so.
