FashionHap: End Apr '16 Mash-Up

TNA's First Lady decided to slay us all yet again. That red dress was enough to stun; now, take a gander at Maria in this scarlet string bikini :). If it doesn't make your jaw drop, you should probably check to make sure you still have a pulse ;). My abso favorite part, though? The super-glam studded top! Hotter: that top...or Maria wearing that top? Tough call.  She finishes the look with powerful platform stilettos and a fun, printed kimono that maker her look like a lady who belongs in the limelight!
At the opposite end of the style spectrum is a causal look from Natalya, a bit of a throwback from her Euro trip.  We don't often see her ease things back this far, but, as usual, her fashion sense is sterling! She combines a red plaid shirt with skinny jeans and her fav-of-the-moment leather jacket. For a fun twist, she's completed this look with flat lace-up ankle boots. The look has a chic-hiker vibe, which I really love seeing as it shows a new and unexpected aspect of Nattie's fashion sense.
If you feel yourself in need of some gowns and glamour, try this one from Nikki. This mod back-and-ivory print has a raw, natural feel, like an animal print or snakeskin.The halter silhouette is classy and sophisticated and she's added a bt of spice with her red clutch. I really love the modern yet glam vibe of this look; it's bold, without being overtly sexy - it's just seductive enough. This is a prime example of the best of Nikki's style!
Hearkening back to Earth Day, we get a printed maxi dress from Renee with a very bohemian feel. That's enhanced by the beautiful desert background...and her fun, free-and-happy pose! Didn't just seeing that make you smile? She makes this dress even more appealing by pairing it with trendy suede gladiators - I like the uniqueness of he combination! - and the taupe shade complements the colors in her dress flawlessly.
So remember I said that whole thing about bits and BTS's that I'd held off on and now, no more? Here's one :). This striking look of Paige's made a recent reappearance on her IG and this time, I'm talkin' about it! She pairs a minimalist bodysuit with pointy-toe ankle boots and a super-hawt sleeveless trench that's a current love of fashion bloggers everywhere.  A black fedora makes a surprising accessory - she gets major fierce points for that. And, although I'd love to see her wear it tipped forward more, I'm a massive fan of the way it adds a funky, old-school twist to this very current look. I'm completely jazzed by this outfit - it maintains Paige's preference for dark colors, but comes to it from such a mature perspective! It blends a number of forward-looking fashion elements into a cohesive look with a bit of edge to it and the result is both sophisticated and fierce! I hope this is a sampling of where we see her style heading in the future - a sort of streetwise, dark minimalism would be oh so much fun to explore.
Brie makes an appearance in this gorgeous crochet dress - the intricate crochet detailing at the sleeves, collar and hem is just lovely! She adds a great counterpoint with these suede flat knee boots in a charming shade of chocolate. The way the deep, rich color brings an earthy texture to the ethereal white is fantastic.

If you haven't gotten enough of red yet, you're in for a treat! How about Barbie wrecking me and the rest of the world in this incredible mockneck gown? From straight ahead, it looks like iconic Old Hollywood..until she turns sideways and shows off the side cutouts, which could not be hotter atm! They were pretty much all over the Met Gala red carpet this year. Barbie's laced-up version adds a tantalizing twist. Although I might have preferred a slightly less austere part in her hair, her sleek, simple hairstyle was the right idea  - it lets the gown have the spotlight.
Alicia makes this FH with another fabulous black monochrome look, this one from Paris. It's a wonderful play on movement, pairing wide-leg pants with a swishy top. All that flowy fabric is given just the right amount of structure from her chic jacket, which still has enough drape to blend beautifully with the other pieces. The fabric offers the suggestion of shape, harmonizing the look, and the result is amazingly chic! It's not easy to combine multiple flowy pieces without looking shapeless, but Foxy absolutely slays this look! #iAmNotWorthyBows. And then also, a quick hit on this divine sweater: even jet-lagged, Foxy manages to demo some killer fashion. I'm head-over-heels for the complex cabling and gorgeous honeycomb stitches of this ivory pullover. Pop on a cute hat and some jeans and bam! - cute and fashionably casual in a heartbeat :)
Last up - another one of those BTS's: Lana goes for and nails serious killage in this deconstructed bodysuit. It starts off simple, but the asymmetrical keyholes, along the squared-off side cutout create an amazing use of negative space! It's like using the body as modern art - the canvas beneath fabric paint. Lana pairs that incroyable piece with suede wedge OTKs, a stark, but powerful statement, complemented flawlessly by her leather jacket, which she tosses carelessly over one shoulder. Her pose is fabulous, the brightly-lit elegant staircase background is dramatic and compelling and the whole shot is just fantasmic. I wish we could have a whole 'shoot from this moment!
