After giving birth to her last child, Fashion Blogger, Image and Style Consultant and Personal Shopper Sheila A., decided to pour some of her creative energy toward the creation of a style blog. Since launching It Girl Allure in 2011, followers and fans have relied on the blog for great style inspiration.
Her impeccable styling not only extends to this mom of two’s exquisite fashion sense, but also to the funktastic way she styles her gorgeous natural lochs.
Check out some of our favorite looks from the DC area native’s closet….
When Ciara showed up to the 2014 MusicCares Gala in a navy Lanvin mens style pinstripe suit, many scrubbed their chins, cocked their heads and went, “hmmmm.” Not all were convinced at how fashion forward the look was for maternity wear.
Little did they know she was only channeling the spirit of her fore-mothers who rocked Androgynous maternity before her.
Behold:
Ciara has been wearing androgynous looks this pregnancy like Beyonce & Kim Kardashian did before her. |
Androgynous models are coveted in high-end fashion, but the trend toward gender-neutral clothing has only just begun to reach the sports world, with NBA stars Russell Westbrook and Dwyane Wade blurring the lines in their tight jeans and fitted sweaters. No sports apparel company has taken it a step further and expressly targeted the gender-fluid crowd — and whether Nike is willing to ride the edge with Griner remains to be seen. “We can’t get into specifics,” says Nike spokesman Brian Strong, “but it’s safe to say we jumped at the opportunity to work with her because she breaks the mold.
The former Baylor women’s player and current Phoenix Mercury star won the ESPY award for best female athlete in 2011 and rocked the red carpet in men’s wear the following two years.
The era of androgyny has been a thing for a while now, but is mos def an “in” thing again.

Basketball Wives’ Eveyln Lozada recently told Que Mas online magazine that she doesn’t wear maternity wear because maternity clothes make her feel “old and frumpy.”
The newly-engaged clothing store owner and author said. “I love tops that hug my tummy and show off my bump”
She added that she is thinking of designing a line of sexy maternity clothes. Why not? Throw your hat in the ring too.
“Pregnant women need to feel beautiful, wear gorgeous prints and nice solids,” the Afro-Latina mama-to-be shared. “Don’t conceal your bump! Wear it with pride.””
Good advice, mama!
….um but on that old and frumpy maternity thing, we think she needs to take a better look at some of the creative maternity lines out there like Isabella Oliver for example.
And some other brands too have done sexy maternity pretty well:

Another one of our pretty new moms Anna Faris looked amazing in this midnight blue Fitranni dress with a slight train.
Giuliana Rancic made the BEST dressed list with this crimson lace overlay Alex Perry resort 2014 dress and Marina B jewls. Gorg!
Tamar Braxton-Herbert just had her son last year and looks smoking hot in a fire-engine red Michael Costello dress while posing with hubby Vince Herbert.
P!nk accompanied hubby Carey Hart while showing off her toned bod in a red Johanna Johnson dress.
Sweet. Erica Campbell of the group Mary Mary had her daughter for her date last night while wearing a two piece lace top and skirt. It was a modest and approporiate look considering all the hoopla over her solo album cover.
Fantasia Barino went with a neutral-toned slip dress with a red halter strap under a black lace see-through dress with crimson lip and a cute bowl pixie cut. Confusing look.
At that same event was actress Paula Patton in a crimson Mireille Dagher Couture fall 2014 lace mini dress with a plunging neckline, worn with Louboutin pumps and David Yurman jewels.
Look at that strength and balance. Amazing.
