Hey Guys!
It's our favorite time of the week...
Hey! So at the Chanel show, of course Rihanna is wearing a Chanel dress...
...adapted from Lagerfeld's Pre-Fall 2008 Collection.
She says, "I need them for my upcoming "Quarter Century Fiesta"! Do you know the designer and where I can get the shoes? Thanks!"
I couldn't find the exact pair, but felt that these $396 Prada shoes came close...
If that's too much, you can get a similar look for less with these $83 Nine West Metropop Sandals...
...from www.zappos.com.
Next reader Tanaiya fell in love with Kerry Washington's look recently...
...She says, "Kerry looks gorgeous. Who makes her dress?"
...from his pre Fall 2008 collection.
Reader Tiphanie adored Janet Jackson's look in a Parade Magazine article...
She says, "I love the coat and the color. If you can help me out, I would be so thankful."
Get Janet's look for less with the following: Left to Right:City Style Trench Coat., $50, www.newyorkandcompany.com; Pintuck Trench Coat, $138, www.ardenb.com.
Tabby from Chicago comes with a Wardrobe Query. She says, "My husband and I are attending a spring banquet for his company and are both clueless on what to wear. My husband wears a suit 3 times a year and other than that he is a jean guy. I seriously need to upgrade him but I have no clue where to go or what to pick for him to wear. The banquet is semi formal and I want us both to look hot. Any suggestions? "
Your event is semi formal, which generally means that you guys should be wearing something between business casual and black tie. To answer your question, I figured, why not take a style cue from hot couple, Will and Jada Smith?
For your event, tell your beau to pop on a light colored suit with a simple solid shirt underneath (tie optional)...
...you can balance him out by wearing a print dress in a complementary color. Try these:
Left to Right: Glen Plaid Two Button Suit, $148-$325, www.bananarepublic.com; Plenty by Tracy Reese Sri Lanka Claudia Dress, $134, www.revolveclothing.com; J. Lindeberg Sportswear Casper Bridge Poplin Shirt, $55, www.tobi.com.
....you can pop on a cute short suit (bright color optional):
Have amazing weekends, and keep checking in....you never know when your Mail Bomb might take center stage!
....so bring your A game! Deadline for contest submissions is tomorrow at midnight.

I LOVED your suggestions for the semi-formal, couple style mail bomb! I feel very informed and inspired :)
Thanks and have a great weekend!
i looooovvveee christian!!!!..."im kind of a big deal..sorta a celebrity!"...HE WAS MY FAVORITE!!!!
Rihanna is guarenteed to always be on mail bombs every Friday. I can't even hate on her because all most every thing she wears is fly.
to the girl that asked about Ciara's shoes...

Not the same brand as Ciara's but almost identical.
