Greetings Fashion Mavens,
I know this is a super late post today but my morning started with me cursing out my electric company for the weak electric lines/servers they have in my neighborhood. In other words, there was a storm some time during the night, my lights went out, and I woke up late. Good grief! I don't sleep in late but during the week I'm a little extra dependent upon my good ole alarm clock. A student of mine once told me I should also set the alarm on my phone. I told her to eat grass and stay out of my business, lol. She's a sweetheart but I have to treat all my students with disdain....it's tradition. And they still love me! It boggles the mind but I think they know that I'm just full of hot air, lmbo!
Anyhew, I wanted to get your opinion on which one of these celebratory fashionistas rocked this tuxedo jacket below. I ran across these pics about a week ago and forgot to post.
Kim K made an appearance at the Palladium Collection by Jacob & Co. launch party in New York City last month. She accessorized her Balmain tuxedo jacket with ankle strap heels and a mini audiere'. Fergie was spotted at a Case-Mate event in NYC also happening last month. She decided to rock a silk top beneath her jacket and sport classic black pumps. Both ladies look good but this jacket just doesn't do it for me. I personally don't like garments that exude the "there's something missing" look to them. I know it sounds crazy but seriously, it looks like Kim is leaving her man's home after a late night and early morning (if you know what I mean) and Fergie looks like she forgot her pants. This jacket is actually sold out in some stores already. However, I was able to find it below at the really low price of about $4,000 dollars......*swoon*
Good heavens look at that price! Balmain has definitely discovered their niche and they have been extremely successful! This menswear inspired piece has satin lapels, military flair with gold-toned buttons, long sleeves, double-breasted front button placket, AND buttoned cuffs. Now obviously this jacket's fit is oversized or these ladies would not be able to rock it as a dress. But all I see when I look at their pics is "Look ma, no pants"! If I had to choose, I think I would select Kim K because the fit is better and the lack of undershirt actually looks better to me. But the real question is..........................
