From host Erykah Badu’s mustard yellow frock to Elise Neal’s mile long jumpsuit to Teyana Taylor’s sexy sheer gown, each head-to-toe ensemble delivered the drama and then some. But, we need to talk about Jill Scott because her entire look is a fashion and beauty grand slam.
We’re not sure if her floral gown inspired the hairstyle or vice versa, but the singer reminded us that baby’s breath aren’t just reserved for wedding days. If you revel in a pretty hair accessory, flowers are an easy go-to; especially if you’re a 4C gal.
It can be challenging for some to find adornments that will work with and not against our thick texture; this is a quick (and stylish) fix! We’re feeling totally inspired by Scott’s red carpet slay and officially on the hunt for accessories that resemble the teeny flower. What better place to start than Etsy?
