Shakira Has No Time for Boring Looks

Shakira’s outfits don’t lie: she’s stepping up her fashion game. While the DNA of her sexy personal style remains the same, the Colombian singer has been ramping up her off-duty looks, favoring lace, leather, and lots of Mugler

The revamp also coincides with the dissolution of her 11-year relationship with former Manchester United footballer Gerard Piqué, so needless to say, it’s been a busy year, both in Shakira’s personal life and style. Maybe it’s fair to say there’s a little bit of revenge dressing at play here?

On Valentine s Day she posted a video lip-syncing to SZA s breakup anthem “Kill Bill,” while (somewhat inexplicably) mopping her carpet wearing a low-cut jumpsuit, which revealed a bralette, and 6-inch Amina Muaddi stiletto boots. She performed her diss track “Shakira: BZRP Music Session #53” in leather chaps and underboob cutouts, and she launched a thousand memes in her Viktor Rolf “NO” trench, which she wore to the Dutch brand’s couture show earlier this year.

With her recent looks, Shakira has embraced the Little Top/Big Pants trend, and has proven that she rocks cutout bodysuits like no other. Check out some of our favorite of the singer’s recent looks.

Anyone who rocks a skirt over pants with such aplomb is okay in my book.

In the epicenter of quiet luxury, Shakira attended Wimbledon in a loud denim look. With a tromp l'oeil MO5CH1NO Jeans shirt and matching bustier, oversized Carrera sunglasses, and a Mugler purse, she deserved as much attention as the players.

Shakira’s answer to the revenge dress? Revenge chaps. The singer paired the daring look with an equally bold mesh bodysuit complete with underboob cutouts.

Some celebs shoot for subtlety at the airport, but Shakira isn’t one of them. She deplaned in a heavily ripped pair of black jeans, a matching rose-printed Dolce Gabbana hat and puffer, and platforms.
