Red Carpet Fashion: Black Girls Rock Awards 2012


Tonight BET Networks premiered the annual Black Girls Rock Awards and in true red-carpet fashion, our favorite females showed their support as well as their impeccable sense of style. Black Girls Rock is always one of my absolute favorite award shows, not just for the fashions but because these celebrities are supporting such an amazing cause. Empowerment of young females of color is so incredibly important so I make it a point to watch and support the show every year. Here are a few of my favorite looks from the red carpet:

Roc Nation songstress Bridget Kelly served it up on the carpet in a body-conscious black dress, statement jewels and her signature blunt bangs (done by celebrity hairstylist Keith Campbell)

Black was definitely the theme of the night. Lala Vasquez-Anthony showed up in a body-hugging Balmain black velvet number, a sophisticated updo and classic Louboutin black pumps.

Marsha Ambrosius was glowing in a fitted black blazer and statement belt, luscious curls, and rhinestone hoops.

Janelle Monae (who's a new spokesperson for Covergirl) looked amazing in her signature tuxedo "uniform" with a little diamond embellishment.

Taraji P. Henson broke the mold in a glittering gold DVF number. Super classy and well-fitted. Loved it!
Ciara went with an architectural silhouette and slicked back hair. Not gonna lie, I was a little confused by this look, but I'll let her live.

Meagan Good served a glowing post-wedding glow with tapered layers, a red lip and a full on black ensemble. She rocked a cropped turtleneck top and a flowing maxi skirt.

The hostesses of Black Girls Rock - Tracee Ellis Ross and Regina King pose with performer Keyshia Cole on the red carpet.

Per usual, Tracee Ellis Ross served a fierce face and a luscious head of curls. That berry lip is everything! Definitely doing a "Get The Look" for this one soon.

Who doesn't LIVE for Kerry Washington? I am here for her. Love this beauty look. She's giving a sophisticated updo, a red lip and a dainty beaded Marchesa cocktail dress.

Black Girls Rock! Fashion Countdown

I'm back with another countdown lovelies! I recently ran across some great photos of the 4th Annual Black Girls Rock! Awards and there were of course some notables. In honor of the many positive black female role models, the event is to commemorate entertainers as well as to raise awareness of the influence these women have on the young black female community. Since this is such a positive cause, I'll shy away from the hating just for one day...

Here are my favorite looks of the night:



Naomi lookin' right in this Alexander Wang dress and black fur stole...very Naomi!

Tracee Ellis Ross looks amazing in this blinged-out shoulder

Raven Symone making great wardrobe choices lately...color and silhouette are very flattering

Janelle Monae, one of the few who can pull off this tuxedo without a second glance

Melanie Fiona in an all-black body conscious piece...the sequins are a nice touch

Queen Latifah and Mary J. Blige look stunning in "all black everything"
