Favorite Outfit Picks

Everyone did not shy away and came to The Soirée dressed to impress! Many were a force to be reckoned with for their hot, powerful carpet looks.

Singer-songwriter Chesney Clair stunned the carpet wearing an all-black sequence fit. From her cocktail dress and matching cloak to her knee-high boots and shades, she was the image of fashion.

Singer-songwriter Blair Woods came to slay! She wore a long pink gown with matching pink platform heels that are a must in everyone’s shopping bag. Gaudy silver earrings accompanied her outfit to a T, very picturesque.

Actress Mychal-Bella Bowman popped off in an animal print jacket, matching her chic sunglasses, hat and dainty Prada bag. The purple pants and platform heels sealed the deal, pulling her outfit together on the carpet.
