The 2024 Paris Olympic Games, But Make It Fashion
Cheer on Team USA in Style Like Beyoncé in *That* Leotard
It seems that every month Beyoncé manages to break the Internet and last night (this morning, if you're in Paris) was no different. I mean, just look at the material!
Now, you may not have Ann Marie Lastrassi's body or her glam squad, but that doesn't mean you can't rep America looking like a vision in red, white, and blue. Here are my must-haves that scream "Team USA."

Red
Look up "red" in the dictionary and you're bound to see Serena Williams in this body-hugging Dolce&Gabbana number. Kudos to her handy dandy personal umbrella holder, husband Alexis Ohanian, for ensuring this diva didn't feel a drop on her drip.
Get the look phresh out the runway at D&G...
Red looks good on you.
Or, get the dupe.
She's half off, baby!
Fenty Beauty by Rihanna
Rihanna herself may not be in Paris (as far as we know), but that doesn't mean she's not involved. Fenty Beauty is an official partner of the Olympics and Paralympics this year for a reason. It's National Lipstick Day on July 29th, and since all good things come in threes, be sure to snag the lipstick, lip liner, and lip gloss for the perfect patriotic pout ??
This may or may not be the exact same lippie Rihanna sported for her record-breaking Super Bowl halftime show performance!

AMERICA HAS A PROBLEM and it's not CéCRED! Beyoncé just announced that her long-awaited hydrating conditioner is finally here. I'm not saying using this will give you hair like Bey, but I am saying there's only one way to find out...
CéCRED Hydrating Conditioner
L?CI by Emmanuel Eribo and Nicki Minaj
It was announced earlier this year that rap superstar Nicki Minaj was joining forces with co-founder and CEO Emmanuel Eribo to take L?CI, launched in 2021, to the next level. Minaj stated that the line "is more than just fashion" and given its dedication to cruelty-free and environmentally conscious designs, we're seeing green in more ways than one.
If you wear kicks for any occasion, these are for you.
PRADA
It's Prada, darling. Need I say more?
Meryl Streep approved.
Shaded by Shanell
Mix and match these sets to assemble the perfect patriotic press-ons. Shaded by Shannell also has a killer nail glue in tow. One happy customer's set didn't budge for 19 days. This is for the very busy who like to look their very best. Tap in.
Ice cold, yet white hot
SBS 3 Second Super Brush-On Nail Glue
Blue
Blue is the new black. Well, navy that is. From silk dresses to strappy heels to "leather" bags, these luxurious threads will become the most complimented staples in your wardrobe.
Wear this on a hot date (or to land one).
Beautiful, breathable, and wide-foot friendly? Sign me up!
Telfar Clemens may have designed for Liberia for the 2024 Summer Olympics, but his bags are made right here in the USA.
All Together Now
Coincidentally, red, white, and blue are not only the colors for the US flag, but for the French flag too. The Internet couldn't get enough of Team USA's themed fits from Sha'Carri Richardson (with the mani to match) to flag bearers LeBron James and Coco Gauff.

From suits to swimwear to signature watches, here are some pieces to rock the all-American colorway the cool way.
Fun Fact: This blazer was made right here on American soil ???? Red, white, and blue has never looked so sophisticated. (There may or may not be a fun skirt to match.)
Roses are red. Violets are blue. This suit is both and it has some white too!
'Cause what's more American than a sale?
Go for the Gold
I'd be remiss not to drop in some gold items to match those Olympic winning medals. Let's get into it.
Kylie Cosmetics by Kylie Jenner
I had the pleasure of experiencing the most enjoyable beauty pop-up event in NYC last week thanks to King Kylie. Make sure to nab your lip faves during her 2 for 22 sale to celebrate National Lipstick Day before it's over.
Get high shine in one glide.

This sexy shoe brand, founded during the height of the global pandemic, now has global reach. With the perfect balance of luxe and comfort, rock this for a daytime sidewalk stroll or night out on the town.
Slay while this is on sale!
LOEWE
If you haven't yet seen the hilarious TikTok video of how practically no one, from Aya Nakamura to Kris Jenner, can pronounce luxury brand LOEWE correctly, watch it before copping these beauties.
J'adore.
Bonne chance to our epic U.S. Olympic Team and God bless America.
