Star Style: Mary J Blige, Taraji Henson, Give Fans Cold Shoulder

It’s finally summertime. All of that hard work in the gym will finally pay off when you slip on that new one shoulder dress for Memorial Day weekend. 

Another way to incorporate this look is for a cocktail party or a night out on the town. Take note from Mary J. Blige in this fantastic turquoise Michael Kors dress. Find a bright colored, one shoulder piece that fits you like a glove. Pair it with a killer pair of heels to stand out at a party.  

To show off those great arms of yours and switch it up a little, try giving the “cold shoulder.” A one shoulder dress or top is a great look for the season. It’s a versatile look and it can be worn casual like Keke Palmer (in French Connection) or formal like Zoe Saldana (in Calvin Klein.)  

With the summer being wedding season, you can also pull this look off at a wedding. Be careful with the colors you choose (stay away from white, obviously) and make sure the style is appropriate for the occasion. Lavendar, yellow, pink and pastels are all great colors for nuptials. Just like Taraji P. Henson here in this floor-length Alberta Feretti gown, you too can be soft and appropriate while still giving the “cold shoulder.” –mattie james
