How fabulous did Gabrielle Union look at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party earlier this week! She wore a beautiful gown by Georgine, which is hot off the fall 2016 New York Fashion Week runway. She also kept her hair down in a flirty, undone bob. She looked amazing!

I love how she kept her jewelry simple, allowing the dress to shine. She looked fabulous! Her strappy black sandals were also perfect for the dress.

You can easily recreate her entire look, head to toe, at home! Her dress can be found at Georgine.com, and I found similar earrings and shoes online. Here is a similar pair of earrings which would look amazing with the dress. I also found two pairs of really cute shoes. This pair is under $200, and this pair is a fabulous designer splurge!

I also love that she kept her hair down, and simple in an undone bob. Smooth ‘N Shine has shared with us the steps to recreating Gabrielle Union’s Vanity Fair Oscar Party hairstyle at home!

Stay tuned! I will have Georgine’s entire fall 2016 collection from New York Fashion Week posted soon. Below you can find the hair products used on Gabreille Union’s hair, and my similar accessory picks. For more Georgine, please visit Georgine.com.

Pictured: Hailee Steinfeld walking the red carpet on August 30, 2015 at the MTV Video Music Awards. She is wearing a spring Stella McCartney jumpsuit and carrying a Jill Milan clutch from the spring 2016 collection.

Hailee Steinfeld was spotted on the red carpet Sunday night carrying a fabulous handbag by Jill Milan. Hailee’s handbag was a golden clutch know as the “Disc Clutch.”

The Disc Clutch by Jill Milan is part of Jill Milan’s spring 2016 collection. The clutch is not yet available for sale, making Hailee Steinfeld’s VMA look extremely exclusive.

“Hailee looked wonderful Sunday night, and the Disc Clutch was a great complement to her Stella McCartney jumpsuit,” said Jill Fraser, founder and CEO of Jill Milan. “The Disc Clutch’s clean look went well with the lines of the rest of her outfit.” Ms. Steinfeld was styled for Sunday’s event by celebrity stylist Karla Welch.

Hailee Steinfeld’s Disc Clutch by Jill Milan is handmade in Florence, Italy. This beautiful handbag is made entirely from fully recyclable Italian stainless steel. The clasp is also the Jill Milan logo; offering a discreet closure. Love that!

As with all of Jill Milan’s handbags, Hailee Steinfeld’s spring 2016 Disc Clutch is 100% vegan. This makes her entire ensemble vegan friendly. Stella McCartney is also known for her animal-free designs.

Jill Milan’s Disc Clutch will be available for sale in the spring 2016 season. The formal, evening box clutch will be priced at $1700. When it is available for sale, Jill Milan’s Disc Clutch will be online at JillMilan.com.

Squiggle pumps and fringe

Squiggle squiggle! From the moment I laid my eyes on these Christian Louboutin squiggle pumps, I knew I needed them in my life. They are basic black, peep-toe pumps with a twist! Or should I say “squiggle.” 😉 I was excited to have a recent girl’s night out with my friends where I could wear these shoes and wiggle the evening away!

To complete the look, because sometimes I dress from the shoes up, I decided to wear my new BCBG fringe skirt. I purchased this skirt to wear in New York next month for fashion week, but decided it needed to be worn ahead of time in honor of the Christian Louboutin Squiggle pumps and grabbing sushi with my friends. What other occasion do I have to wear a fringe skirt? As a Mother of three, I don’t go out at night too often, so when I have the chance, I dress up!

I’m excited to wear this skirt again in New York next month and I am eagerly looking for another occasion to wear these squiggle pumps. Unfortunately they will not go to New York with me. I need shoes with traction in order to survive the snow and ice on the ground back east!

This will be my go-to look for spring when I head out to dinner with my hubby and/or go out at night! What is your current go-to, night on the town outfit?
