By Kerane Marcellus · Updated November 7, 2023

Eve‘s style evolution has been transformative and longstanding. From her early days as a Ruff Ryders rap star to her multifaceted career as an actress and television host, her fashion influence has remained a constant force in hip hop and pop culture. Her fashion choices have transcended from just rap into the mainstream. The style maven was wearing Raf Simons, DSquared2, and Fendi years ago–during the height of her music career in the ‘00s she was viewed as one of hip hop’s high fashion risk-takers. Her ability to seamlessly blend high fashion with streetwear has further solidified her status as a style icon in our eyes.

We’re keying in on the rapper’s casual yet dressy outfit which consisted of a sparkly top, fitted blue jeans, and printed pointed-toe boots that showed off her bold style. The red sparkly top exudes femininity with the jeans providing balance. The beret hat and printed boots give the look a fun and flirty essence that resonates with her music and persona. 

If you’re looking to channel this side of Eve’s energy, we’ve compiled some options that could work for you so, keep scrolling.

These leather shoes from Christian Louboutin are a great pair to channel Eve’s look. They’re not quite spot on, but we love the idea of meshing a red top with black and white footwear and denim.
