STYLE STAR: FEATURING GABRIELLE UNION

Thursday, August 9, 2007

gab_stylestar.gif

Here is another edition of Style Star for you, featuring actress Gabrielle Union.

One thing I’ve always admired about Gabrielle Union since she’s been in the business is the level of class, sophistication, and elegance she brings wherever she goes. She can be on the red carpet or at a hot club in Miami, and still pull off a sexy but, classy look.

One to not wear huge labels, Gabrielle is a fan of boutiques and soft but classic styles. Not only underrated with her style, but with her talent - Gabrielle deserves this week spotlight.

Lets take a closer look at Gabrielle’s style…
SHE LOVES THE BELTS

I simply love her style. It is very nice and very sexy. She shows that you can be sexy and look fun and not have everything showing or hanging out. It’s good to leave some things to the imagine.

She looks great in every one of those outfits and she is very beautiful…

@ #3 I get a similar vibe, I heard that some people said she can be a bitch for real…but who knows…that girl Garnette or whatever her name is from the Baldwin Hills show, reminds me of her…

I don’t agree that she’s stylish…everything she’s wearing there was a trend… The belts, the color yellow, the potato sack dress, the color blue, menswear… all of it… She has done nothing more than follow the season’s guidelines… That’s not even remotely individual… How, then, is it stylish? Just my opinion…

In some of her pics she reminds me of Tracy Edmonds.

And that blue section is cute. That is her color.

She always look nice, and I noticed she doesn’t always rock 3 inch heels and still cute. She always look comfortable. And I have to say I hate Forever 21. Too Cheap!!

I like her style, it may be trendy, but she wears it well, plus you never see her tore down drunk off her behind.

I love gabby.. I think she is very sophisticated and chic and she never overdoes it with her outfits.. however she has been getting a lot of media attention and people are going to start getting tired of her but I love her still :)

I LOVE her style there isn’t one thing that she has wore that I thought “what the hell” she has always wears clothes that look good for her curvy shape (which I want) and bright colours.

39.

I just think this chick is so over rated! She’s average looking and her outfits aren’t really trendsetting, just current trends..

Sorry.. I just don’t get it

I love Gabrielles style…lot of class…shes a role model for young women and she can show them you do not have to be extreme in showing your assets.

Gabrielle Union is so pretty to me, I love her style. She is an excellent actress and she represents oh so well for the chocolate sisters. She’s my idol, I love her (no homo)

44.

Lula Pear

Thursday, August 9, 2007 /

^^^It’s ironic that you say she reps for the chocolate sistahs when she has a color complex…. She said so in Essence.

#42..I think Halle is flawless..

46.

Don't Argue With Me It's Just An Opinion

Thursday, August 9, 2007 /

She looks phenominal in the yellow. I like some parts of her style; not too overdone and still conservative with a touch of casual. A wonderful look for a wonderful actress.

47.

mena

Thursday, August 9, 2007 /

#42.. True there are plenty of overrated women in the media.. but Halle isn’t one of them.. She’s a very natural and flawless beauty.. in my opinion..

But Gabrielle, I just don’t see it

I love Gabby’s style! She’s my favorite beautiful brown girl, so, thank you, Tianna, for featuring her. Her style is a lot like mine—fashionable, classic, sexy, but understated, and just overall FABULOUS!

51.

Oh Hell No...

Thursday, August 9, 2007 /

I love Gabby and her style. She really represents black woman well. You’ve never seen her assed out or Tits bustin out the top. One thing that made me really like her was when I seen her on Oprah and she talked about when she was raped. I was like Wow…. That is a strong black woman. And for her to still walk around with her head held high, and be on point with her appearance, You go Girl. Keep doing you Gabby!!!!!!

52.

Gabrielle Union mos def has IT. For you who don’t think you would like her if you met her NEWS Flash get over yourselves. Had a chance to meet Ms. Union is a very nice young lady very down to earth and a survivor. She was RAPED at GUN POINT and the gun tried to SHOOT her but the gun JAMMED. So pistol whipped her thus the scar on face.

This is strong couragous determined Black Sistah.

This a bad azz woman right here! She looks damn good in EVERYTHING she puts on her figure! Go Gabby!

54.

Lula Pear

Thursday, August 9, 2007 /

Please stop talking about her being raped… That’s inappropriate… This is a post about fashion. I think it’s exploitative… it makes people who might express dissenting opinions about her STYLE feel accused or condemned… It’s just weird.

55.

Dark-N-Lovely

Thursday, August 9, 2007 /

People should stop talking about how they might not like her when they probably will never meet her. However you are right, IT IS ALL ABOUT HER FASHION AND GREAT SENSE OF STYLE. The girl is hot but at the same time others are inspired from knowing that Life hasn’t been no walk through the park to her either. Whatever you’ve been through you can still pull yourself together and be beautiful inside and out.

But know your point is well taken. There is a time and place for everything.

She’s beautiful. I think she has absolutely no range as an actress (she’s the same character in every movie), but she’s beautiful and classy.

Yes she is very classy, smart, and beautiful. We are cousins, and i am very proud of her and all her accomplishments and wish her even more success in everything she does. We in Omaha NE. (The Bryant-Fischer Family) are very proud to claim her as our own. Smooches…..!

Gabby stay fly……we dress alike.

And she is an excellent, excellent actress….girl can go from sad to happy to funny. Not every actress can appriopriately take you on a emotional roller coaster and make you feel the character. Loved when she played “eva (thought this bitch was evil for real)” and i also loved her in daddys little girls (she really did seem uptight and classist until she got off her high horse), hell, i just love all her movies, including “two can play this game (she played a good man stealer too).”

My she-ro!

Lula Pear

She is a big fan of Nicole Richie’s style…she has said that she considers Nicole the best dressed star, so far ahead of everybody, Gabrielle said. Well that seems a bit inconsistent with the conservative dress… I think it’s because she has low self esteem that she keeps herself so safe, so easily dressed. I think most of you are off the mark on this one… I find nothing about her style commendable.

65.

A friend of mine was recently introduced to Ms. Union at a big function in Vegas and she was so nasty to her, she gave her a look like “and who the hell are you?”. She was so rude and unpleasant. Don’t know if it had to do with the fact that my friend who looked indian but is indeed Trinidadian was introduced by a once famous actor from back in the day (who was just a friend).

Needless to say she didn’t have a good time coz all the black females there kept giving her dirty looks since she wasn’t all black, at least that’s what it seems because my friend is one of the sweetest chicks I know……

It’s a shame that us black women continue to hate on other women of color especially when we’re around successful and famous black men.

@#6

I agree. I would like to see some of our celebrity brothas posted on the style star (i.e. Andre 3000, Common, etc) for us brothers who are in the know fashion wise..;-)

@57 dee dee

Wow, r u serious about Gabby not having a acting range? I mean she’s played so many different characters, and i think she actually played them phenomenally:

A over protective sister (Deliver us from eva)
A corporate climbing man stealer (Two can play this game)
An uptight workaholic lawyer (Daddy’s little girls)
Down for the cause DEA agent (Bad Boys 2)
Kick ass urban cheerleader chick (Bring it On)
Regular woman who just lost her man trying to find another (Breakin All the Rules)
Down to earth housewife Alice (Honeymooners)
Street girl doing the strip tease (Cradle to the Grave)

I think she’s one of the most underrated hollywood actresses, cause when home girl is on the screen, her beauty and acting just lights tne screen up.

71.

BTW, I love Gabrielle Union and her style.. she represents lovely for our beautiful sistas!

Lula Pear

Thursday, August 9, 2007 /

This is the thing, it’s like you’re chosing her just because she is black. That’s strange to me. I haven’t seen all these style star things so I don’t know who else was chosen besides Rihanna, but it’s a bit disheartening to think that you would choose celebrities for no other reason than being African American. This site seems to cover, overwhelmingly, mainstream celebs, and the reality of our situation is that there just aren’t that many stylish mainstream African American celebrities. When you get past Kelis (who I don’t even think is considered mainstream) and Tracy Ellis Ross, who will be left? Because those are the only two stylish ones I can think of… Vintage Lisa Bonet, maybe? Erica Alexander, a bit? But there are lots of non African American women, and I think it closeminded to exclude them in a fashion blog.
