    Shop #Empire: Michelle’s Taupe Theory Corbette Silk-Georgette Blouse

    /

    I’m slipping! Jennifer Hudson finally made her Empire debut as Andre’s music therapist Michelle. In her initial scene, she wore a $275 Theory Corbette Silk-Georgette Blouse in the shade cedar. Theory’s taupe silk-georgette blouse is easy to dress up or down. It has a flattering wrap-effect front that draws the eye to your waist and elongates your frame. Balance the fluid shape with skinny jeans and heels. Later on in “Sins of the Father,” Michelle comforted Andre (and not in that way as we originally thought from the previews) by suggesting prayer in a $345 marsala-colored Vince 3/4 Sleeve Dress. Vince reworks the sheath dress with fitted, three-quarter sleeves. This version still retains versatility to…

    Shopping #Empire: Cookie Lyon’s Givenchy Mosaic Print Sheath Dress

    /

    So “Sins of the Father” has not debuted yet here in Washington state, but I can tell you what Cookie Lyon (Taraji P. Henson) wore in this promising scene with Malcolm (Derek Luke)! Cookie wore a figure-hugging, $1,651 Givenchy Mosaic Print Sheath Dress accentuated with an Alexis Bittar Snake Necklace to conduct official Empire business. Cookie’s multicolour, digital print, sequin printed, cotton jersey dress features a banded crew neck, long sleeves, a fitted sheath silhouette, a hem that hits past the knees and a hidden back zip. It’s mostly sold out (which goes for most of Cookie’s lustworthy wares) but FarFetch has it on sale for $1,085.
