Lupita Nyong’o REALLY Likes Elie Saab and Hopefully Jared Leto
Elie Saab Pre Fall 2015
Hollywood and fashion “It” girl Lupita Nyong’o looked absolutely stunning, as usual, in not one, but two Elie Saab dresses Sunday. Once again, she proved she can do no wrong, this time in a floor length, striped floral print gown that she wore to the SAG Awards, and then a shorter version to The Weinstein Company and Netflix’s 2015 SAG Awards after-party.
Her hair was elegant in a cornrowed top bun, and her best accessory was rumored boyfriend, Jared Leto. I don’t say this often but, I want to be this woman. She has style, she has grace, she has beauty, she has talent, she is brilliant, she has a wardrobe to die for, and she has my man, allegedly.
Nyong’o and Leto waiting in the wings before co-presenting the award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Television Movie or Miniseries to Mark Ruffalo for The Normal Heart.
I don’t know if she’s actually dating Jared Leto, but she should be. I have had the biggest crush on him since Requiem For A Dream. He is absolutely beautiful and so talented, and the thing about him is I’m not completely sure he knows how gorgeous he is. The front man for 30 Seconds to Mars is rumored to be cast as a badly scarred Joker for an upcoming Marvel Comics Suicide Squad movie. Either way, he is a joy to look at. Get ’em girl.
Micaela Erlanger styled both stars’ looks, and they presented at the ceremony together as well.
What do you think of Lupita’s dress and the rumored hot Hollywood couple?
I created StylEnigma in 2014 to celebrate the beauty of individuality and creative personal expression. I love the idea of being a canvas and expressing myself by transforming into the embodiment of my mood or the mood I want to be in. I am fascinated by different beauty and style standards, and fashion instinctively incorporates both. I’ve written for decades and use writing as a form of education, but I haven’t had the time or mental capacity to dedicate to my project for a long time and I’m anxious to get back to creating content about the beauty of individuality.
I’ve never been into cliques or trends because I’ve always believed that personal style supersedes trends. I’ve never been a follower or stressed about being liked because I learned at an early age that you’ll never please everyone, so you might as well be yourself. Of course, that doesn’t come without its challenges. We should celebrate uniqueness more.
I love dark colors like black and midnight blue. I own so much black clothing I’ve been accused of being in a perpetual state of mourning. I love nail art; in fact, I started this blog because of a Nailasaurus nail art post, and before that, I owned a nail and skincare salon. I have a major collection of nail art images I have never posted, which is shameful. However, I’m going to rectify that character flaw by sharing my nail art journey.
As a lupus patient, I am also learning how to make ADHD work for me (a factor in post shortages) and it is challenging. I am also learning how to create and edit videos, using Vine product reviews as the testing ground.
Thanks for hanging in there with me,
