Top 10: The Week's Best-Dressed, 6-8-2012
By · Updated October 28, 2020
01
#10: Estelle

Where: SELF Magazine’s July Issue Event at The Hotel on Rivington Penthouse in New York City.
 
Why: The singer somehow pulls off mismatched accessories and this printed dress so well that it works. We love how she sets trends, never follows them. Get the look!

#9: Genevieve Jones

Where: The 5th annual Vevue Clicquot Polo Classic at Liberty State Park in Jersey City, New Jersey.
 
Why: The designer’s look is a perfect example of how to dress up for fancy outdoor functions. It’s chic without being overly dressed for warm weather. Get the look!

#8: Jada Pinkett Smith

Where: Walking into The Today Show in New York City.
 
Why: Jada’s pink pleated frock is ultra feminine and flirty, and the T-strap peep-toes give it an even girlier feel. Get the look!

#7: Lauryn Hill

Where: HOT 97’s Summer Jam 2012 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
 
Why: We’re obsessed with Lauryn’s look. Her mixed striped blazer, gaudy gold accessories and mint green Giuseppe Zanotti platforms shows she plays by her own fashion rules. Get the look!

#6: Ciara

Where: The Los Angeles premiere of That’s My Boy.
 
Why: This is a hot summer look! A simple white blouse unbuttoned down-to-there with a pair of white jeans and you’ve got yourself a hot date night look. Get the look!

#4: Lisa Bonet / #3: Zoe Kravitz

Where: Lisa Bonet and Zoe Kravitz attend Chanel’s:The Little Black Jacket Event at the Swiss Institute
 
Why: We love the duo’s personal take on the classic black and cream Chanel palette. Bonet’s boho lace with boots and Zoe’s sleek, modern style create juxtaposing but perfectly complementary looks. Get the look!

#2: Kat Graham

Where: The 2012 MTV Movie Awards at Gibson Amphitheater in Universal City, California.
 
Why: Kat Graham hits us with yet another red carpet stunner. This time a more sleek, clean-lined gown by Maria Lucia Hohan. The deep-v and high split have certainly won us over. Get the look!

#1: Joan Smalls

Where: The 2012 CFDA Fashion Awards at Alice Tully Hall in New York City.
