How to rock Lupita Nyong'o's shiny hot pink outfit for less
Style icon Lupita Nyong’o never disappoints! This week, the actress stopped by The Late Show With Stephen Colbert to discuss her new Jordan Peele film, titled “Us,” where she was looking more than pretty in hot pink.

During her appearance, Nyong’o surprised everyone by wearing eerie golden contact lenses. But while everyone else was freaking out about her eyes, I was totally freaking out over her Bande Noir Fall 2019 shiny hot pink suit, which she paired with lucite heels. The hot pink utility top, which seemed like it was made out of an organza-like fabric, and matching pants looked absolutely stunning on Nyong’o, who I really think could wear anything and still look chic. But on top of that amazingness, she styled it with Sergio Rossi clear heels, which, on the rare occasion that I wear heels, are always my go-to!

I’m so obsessed with this look so, obviously, I had to figure out how we could recreate it for less.
This hot pink crinkle velvet jacket by Topshop via Nordstrom Rack and matching pants via Nordstrom is the closest outfit I could find that had the essence of Nyongo’s number — textured, sophisticated, edgy and glam.
Shop it: Crinkle Velvet Jacket, $48, nordstromrack.com
Shop it: Crinkle Velvet Trousers, $44.99, nordstrom.com
Here are a couple other hot pink sets, that I want to wear, like, yesterday.
Shop it: Lovers + Friends City Cropped Blazer, $163, revolve.com
Shop it: Olivia Culpo Surplice Sequin Dress, $138, express.com
By the way, did you know Olivia Culpo collaborated with Express?! Going there ASAP.
If hot pink isn’t your color, but you still like the metallic vibe, try this velvet suit by Topshop, which comes in black, pink and silver.
Shop it: Topshop Bonded Velvet Jacket, $140, nordstrom.com
Shop it: Topshop Bonded Velvet Trousers, $85, nordstrom.com
And, of course, the heels!
Kim Kardashian has made lucite heels one of the most popular trends, and it all started when Kanye introduced them to his Yeezy Season 2 line.
Shop it: Yeezy Transparent PVC Pumps, $690, ssense.com
Yeezy heels are a splurge, but the good news is that you can easily find clear heels that look exactly the same for $55 or less!
Shop it: Glass Slipper Lucite Pumps, $35, windsorstore.com
Shop it: Lucee Sandal, $55, dsw.com
Shop it: Clear Heeled Mules, $45, prettylittlething.us
I’ve had my pair of Cape Robbin clear heels for so long, I promise you: They go with everything. And they’re comfortable!
