Lisa delivers style with simple sheer look
Some stars reach a level of fame that allows them to be known by just one name.
Think, Madonna, Kylie and Cher.
That level of stardom is real with Lisa.
Some love her from The White Lotus, more love her for Black Pink.
I love her for this stunning, simple and effortless look.
Thigh-high Timberlands strut the Met Gala steps

Keke Palmer channels Dorothy Dandridge
The actor said she was inspired by Dandridge, the first black woman to be nominated for an Oscar in best actress.
“I pretty much just wanted to inhabit the tailoring but also the history of Black culture, fashion as a tool to enter spaces that often we’re not allowed.
“So, that’s why I wanted to take the inspiration of Dorothy Dandridge. All the doors that she opened for us with fashion and beauty.”
Palmer is wearing Vera Wang.
