Bag Ladies "Look of the Week"


So much to choose from but we couldn't keep our eyes off Rihanna and the look she was sporting at this weekend's 2010 Kids Choice Awards ...you know the awards show where folks get slimed? But you know RiRi wasn't having any part in that modeling on the orange carpet (not red), in a pale pink Christian Dior dress. This is a look you can recreate which we definitely like. We love the defined shoulders which has become RiRi's claim to fame as of late. And paired with nude Brian Atwood pumps, the look works. And further accessorized with sequined, sheer white socks, a belt to cinch that waist (always a plus), and dripping in Neil Lane diamonds, how can you go wrong?





The look is the perfect combo of chic fashion and effortless style ...has a kind of nostalgic feel to it. And loving the clean face with the dramatic eye and soft lip. Our pick for "Look of the Week"

Tune into Bag Ladies Reality Radio every Tuesday at 7:30p for REAL Women ...REAL Talk!

And join us for a "special edition" live broadcast from Soul Parlour featuring Bag Ladies, tomorrow at Eighteenth Street Lounge in Washington, DC.
