With Ciara’s height and model-like frame, liquid leggings and sky-high boots were made for a girl like her.

And her new music video “Love, Sex & Magic”  featuring Justin Timberlake is by far the hottest thing out right now.

With cutting edge fashion and beautiful make-up looks, CiCi gets an A+.

Whomever is responsible for this latest image makeover, you get the S&P stamp of approval (and we want more)!

Here’s our take on her vamped up look:

Spring Essentials: Skinny Belts

This week’s springtime fave: Skinny Belts

Wear it over a dress, with a blousson shirt, pencil skirt or cardigan (the possibilities are endless, really), and your outfit gets an instant touch of sophistication. 

Or throw on a vibrant-colored skinny belt with a neutral pieces for an added pop of color. It helps cinch the waist and slims your silhouette. And what girl wouldn’t want that?

Here are a few of S&P’s top skinny picks:

And the winner is . . .

This was a close one, but Iman squeaked out the win over Rashida Jones by a single vote. It’s the second win for the modeling legend. And those who are S&P regulars already know she was the very first Stylin’ Chick of the Week.

Iman’s style is classic, effortless and fashion forward – all at the same time. Not many in today’s modeling world can say the same.

She has helped open the doors for minority models and still continues to do so. Only this time around, Iman is the one calling the shots. As the CEO of her own skincare and accesory lines, IMAN Cosmetics and Global Chic, she remains the consumate trailblazer.
