Now that President Obama has been sworn in for his second term, let’s get to the second most important part of this past weekend—the fashion! There was much pomp and circumstance in DC with some sizzling celebrity fashion to behold during the 2013 Presidential Inauguration and we have some of our favorite celebrities celebrating in the DMV below.
Helping to kick-off the National Day of Service, Angela Bassett looked sleek and stunning in all black with leather pants and jacket. She rocked a fierce short cut with auburn highlights, one of Angela’s signature hair styles.
Continuing to share her message of a “Heart Healthy” lifestyle (signified by Go Red for Women), Star Jones rocked a simple red turtleneck and slacks with the stand out being her red faux fur coat. It’s hard to believe either of these women are in their 50’s!
As part of his service activities, John Legend recorded a Dr. Seuss book for DC Public Schools while wearing a thick, dark charcoal cowl-neck sweater with cable-knit detailing.
Later, he and fiancé Chrissy Teigen appeared at OurTime.org’s Generation Now Youth Inaugural Party. Chrissy looked gorgeous in a delicately embroidered ivory sheath by Tom Ford, with sheer sleeves and simple, black ribbon tie.
Fresh off the premiere of his new movie, Luv, Common was part of the several A-list celebrities that performed. He chose a more casual look with jeans, sneaks and a tee-still well suited for the event.
Eva Longoria, hostess for the Latino Inaugural 2013: In Performance at the Kennedy Center, was stunning in Vivienne Westwood’s peach strapless ‘Bellini’ dress. Down at the Capitol for the Official 2013 Inauguration Ceremonies, she looked fashionable and sensible in black suede, over the knee boots and scarf. Eva kept warm in a haute pink leather trench from Bally Resort Pre-Spring 2013 Collection.
Beyonce and Jay-Z stepped out in style for Bey’s rendition of the National Anthem (watch here, listen here). She looked flawless in black, floor length velvet and chiffon beaded Emilio Pucci gown, luxe fur Dior coat, Lorraine Schwartz emerald jewelry (80 carat earrings, 50 carat ring) and brightly painted nails in Tangerine on the Rocks. Jay-Z looked distinguished with a fresh cut, aviator shades, and a gray tailored Tom Ford suit with a navy and baby blue lined scarf.
Looking nothing less than presidential, entertainment’s own president and first lady showed how to impress at the 2013 Inauguration.
