    Did you catch Marjorie and Lori Harvey on The Steve Harvey Show today? I just happened to catch the latest episode while getting my gel nails filled. The mom-daughter duo embarked on a 21-day fitness transformation with another mother-daughter team: Ellen and Lana Ector of Gymnastics Fitness. Marjorie opted for a Gucci Resort 2016 Chantilly-Lace Embroidered Dress to showcase her enviable bod as well as an equally splendid beatdown by makeup artist Courtney Gower. The details as follows:

The fashion credits for episode 11 (“Death Will Have His Day”) is still in draft but I was able to get a jump on this week’s episode.

And now, after a little searching, here’s the rest of my findings (with cheaper and black-owned alternatives where appropriate):

    Cookie Lyon Vauje Necklace costs less than $100 making it a steal and one of the more accessible items worn on the show.

However, later today, we will see Cookie wearing an $85 custom gold necklace by black-owned brand Vauje Jewelry. Take a gander at the bold neckpiece below: Cookie Lyon Vauje Necklace, $85 Counting Betsey Johnson and Lanvin as inspirations, jewelry designer Mary Collins has created luxurious statement pieces since 2009.
