Are You Feelin This Get Up???
Posted by Bossip Staff
Kelis who exudes authentic “out-of-the-box” style attended the Vail Hold’Em Poker Event for Your Cause last night in NYC. The skin tight leopard print and red is kinda fly, but those pearls…

It works for her.
Could it be that I’m…
First?
And second…
Damn, Traycee–You got me! I was going to run away with this post! Lol!!!!
OK. First the second time! he-he!
LOL
SHE LOOKS LIKE PEG BUNDY FROM MARRIED WITH CHILDREN HOLY *****
Imean the pearls gotta go. kinda reminds me of dem fiends back in the 80’s that wanna dress up but aint got nuttin ta wear! too many bracelets….the red lipstick…..no!
she looks a hell of a lot better than Fantasia
What! Are you blind? The outfit does NOT work! I like Kelis. I love that she and Nas are together. But her style choices are pretentious and getting annoying. She can’t think that this looks good. It looks like she said to herself, “I’m supposed to be wild! I have a reputation to uphold..hmmm…I know…I’ll put on my WILD leopard-print, skin-tight top, red jeans and black heels. OH, and to really throw ‘em off and show I’m wild…I’ll put on my PEARLS!”
PUH-LEEZ! Kelis was fiercest on her first album…I loved her look in that “I Hate You So Much Right Now!” video. She was gorgeous, free, hot and most of all…truly WILD (without seeming to try so hard)!
She is fly, I bet her outfit is more stylish that what anyone who has something nasty to say. Haters need to keep going to the mall to shop so you all can keep looking like clones.
i like!
i agree Vali-Girl!! loved her wit the wild and natural curls in milkshake or even the video bossy, but here it seems like she is tryin to hold up to her rep! Theres no style here. reminds me of the sex in the city girls who had style but now think that 80’s prom dresses are in!
Hate the outfit. Reminds me of the early 90s. Body suits and colored Jeans? This does NOT work!
I’m lovin’ it!
I like it. There are people who wear all red and then leopard shoes….same thing, she just mixed it up
I like……I would never wear it but I am not Kelis either….Do your thang girl….
Why does the caption in the top say “no comment” when there are several?
Damn BOSSIP for making me think I was 1st!!!
the whole look is great, sans that cheap looking pearl necklace
I see nothing wrong with the pearls.
Stop hatin
i love kelis for not being afraid to do her – she marches to her own drums and doesn’t try to look like everyone else!
ummm nope not feelin dis one sorry!
If she wore black skinny jeans instead of those red pants and got rid of the pearls then she would def. look better…
Her style is cool. Thats the point of having “style” not giving a damn about what others think. Im loving the red skinny pants with the leopard top. The pearls? Not my favorite but it puts a litle “twist” to the whole get-up. Im loving the red lipstick, totally unexpected (always) for African Americans……thats what makes it so Fly whenever we rock it. Nice job Kelis!!!!
It doesnt look bad.
Cosign with Vali-Girl
But I think that goes for her music as well,nothing she’s done is anywhere near as good as her first Album. And she may be different than the usual fashion wise but different DOES NOT mean good. She looks a mess most of the time.
commenting on what wealthy successful individuals are wearing is pretty pathetic…………..
I agree with the person who said she looks like Peg Bundy. But in a sort of ironic way, it works for her. I think that she’s the only person who can get away with it because it’s kind of expected from her. I’d never wear it though.
Love it, minus the pearls. Normally, folks would probably wear black or brown pants, colors found in the top. However the red makes the whole thing pop!! It works.
@ sicko
wow, life must really suck for your LOL
I came on to rock for Kelis and say that she is doing her style- until I read where someone {Cola} said she looked like Peg Bundy… Now I need to rethink my whole position on this outfit.
lol@ Setting the record. I don’t think it looks that bad.
I agree w/ the person who said “Kelis tries too hard” this outfit is a testament to that.
She seems to have run out of ideas & inspiration for her quest to “not be the norm” plus Kelis aint even cute in the face she got a Mr. Potato head
Lol considering the red shiny skin tight pants & that horrid tacky print shirt & stupid record shaped purse the only thing Bossip can point out wrong w/ this entire outfit are her PEARLS????
LOL @The Real Essence 1 for “plus Kelis aint even cute in the face she got a Mr. Potato head”. I don’t think Kelis is that pretty and her music was much better when she first came out. As for this outfit, it works just not for me.
*SMH*
Kelis- I feel you tryin’ to buck the norm and all but…. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I can not stress any harder, this is not a good look. You’re startin’ to get realllly tacky.
I guess I need to wipe off my screen because I thought that was a diamond necklace.
Those are some stunning and shiny pearls then.
I can’t stand colored jeans but on her, they work.
Yall need to STOP!
This outfit is not stylish. Its a Hot Damn Mess! If any other chick in the game was wearing this fit folks would be straight clownin. I like Kelis and I understand she has a unique style all her own. But garbage is garbage. Her outfit is GARBAGE! Somebody take out the trash.
I Like it, the pearls she could have done without, but it works for her,I did like her original style with the wild naturally curly hair, her style was strange but the new her is ok too.
I luv it… on KELIS… her style is wild, so its her
BUT, on anyone else, it would truly be a messs
she looks so so
Just release!! http://www.mactanque.com/
SHE STAY FLY

NEW TRACK UP “LATER 4 U”
SHE LOOK LIKE A BLACK “PEGGY BUNDY” FROM MARRIED WITH CHILDREN
This ***** really should look to Beyonce to learn how to dress like a woman.
the pants are cute but i dont know if the shirt goes with the outfit
She have money, she can do what she want. I THINK THEY MAD.
She have money, she can do what she want. I THINK THEY MAD.It’s unique n Nas don’t have a problem with it
yes, yes, HELL YES! no homo

*SMH*
Kelis- I feel you tryin’ to buck the norm and all but…. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I can not stress any harder, this is not a good look. You’re startin’ to get realllly tacky.
^^^^Baaaaaasically. Red and leopard go, but not like THAAAAT…damn. Overkill. Next.
In the immortal words of Kanye West, in reference to his own Grammy fashion faux pas, “when you try hard, that’s when you die hard” That snap-at-the-bottom top wouldn’t have been so bad if it didn’t have TWO animal prints. and that purse…SMH…
It’s alright. Maybe if she had on an animal print dress with the pearls….I think that might have looked a lil better. but yea, I’m not feelin the pearls with that red.
I think what makes Kelis unique fashion-wise is that she draws her influences from a variety of places and cultures. What we say is a mess in the US is the ish in Europe and Asia. Nothing wrong with that to me because she does it tastefully.
damn did the checks stop coming in
I like it K is my girl. It is a ugly outfit but it looks good on her I guess cause she looks good. I can say it is refreshing to see a person step out of the fashion box. ….Disclamier…except Andre 3000 he always look like a runaway slave.
I think Kelis outfit is fly she has her own style. What I really love above Kelis her own style. Did you see the Green wedding dress she wore for her and Nas Wedding. Kelis is a bad beezy.
I think Kelis outfit is fly she has her own style. Did anyone see the pictures of her and Nas wedding the green wedding dress was the *****,
im lovin kelis!!! do it biiish…
I wore this same outfit last week to a dance in Jamaica
man bossip ya’ll late…red and leopard 2gether have been a hot combo 4 a minute. i’m lovin what kelis is rockin.
Dont feel this. Like the idea, combining leopard print(trendy)with black(basics)and red(splash of colour)but it doesnt fit right. I think if the jeans were a better quality or if the top didnt look so cheap itd be ok. Nice that her lipstick matches her jeans lol. Damn its a challenge to get the right shade of red lipstick for black women. Shes def lost weight over the years, she looks small. And why does her face look so old der? Before u lot ger excited im not hating! I been lovin Kelis since Caught Out There, loved the curly hair. Her musics different.
I kinda like it
I would expect more from Kelis. Her fashion savvy distinguished her from the crowd, this outfit is so “regular”. I’m unimpressed. But from her track record, she is allowed some wiggle room. Come back Kelis, come back.
I LOVE Kelis but she’s been a bit underwhelming of late but most people have because stores are selling what celebrities wear and celebrities pay stylists for sensibilities that are otherwise esoteric and individual AND so you’ve got millions of women buying these things that stylists choose for celebrities, things that would have otherwise been unique or different as I said…
Annnnnnnnd, so sadly when we see someone who REALLY WOULD WEAR quirky, individual pieces (like Kelis) she looks just as monotonous as all the millions of women simply buying what they see Nicole Richie, Rihanna, and Lindsay Lohan wearing.
This is not an outfit. It’s a costume and that’s probably what she’s going for.
i know red n leopard go together,but thats too much red. not feelin it
Why has kelis been dressing like this
http://youtube.com/watch?v=3GVTGNcGNeY
UUUUUMMM, NO! imma need her to make some more music b4 i can o.k. a getup like that!!
FORGOT TO CHANGE MY NAME BACK ^^^ THATS MY COMMENT ABOVE!
She is very costumey and I like it – she gets an idea and goes with it! This is ’90s secretary tramp’ or something. I love it all except for the bag, which is not all related to the ensemble if thats what it was supposed to be. Also it would have been perfect if the top were red and the pants were leopard.
I think that she looks fly!!!!!!!!!!!
I NEVER CAN TELL WHERE THE LINE BETWEEN FASHION AND TACKY IS THESE DAYS! it seems like i could go throw some ***** together, that not only dont match in color, but also in context (like the hobo outfit rihanna had on with the neon green nails) and be considered a trend setter. does this only apply to rich ppl? or would yall think that outfit was fly on some random bioch you see at the mall too? i just dont get it!
read it and weep fools
http://news.independent.co.uk/sci_tech/article3067222.ece
yall think cause peps got money they can wear anything,think 4 ur selfs and not follow the editor.That outfit is wack as hell I dont care how much that citi trend lookin ***** cost,What happend to coordinating.
lol@ a the Mr. Potato head comment..This pose does look like that..but she usually looks much better..I don’t think she’s the prettiest girl in the face..but she’s not ugly…I think it’s the bad *****ymetrical hair design she’s got going on that distorts the look of her head..
*****, my mama had an outfit just like that back in the 80’s, i think its aight, just a throwback nothin wrong wit dat.
SHE LOOKS LIKE EARTHA KITTS’ GRANDDAUGHTER….
NAAAAAAA*****SSSSSS DAAAAAAAARRRRLINNNNNNNN
^^^ I’M NOT WEARING ANY PANTIES !!
I aint mad. She got my shoes on Louboutin Rolando!!Those shoes are hot!!
it looks horrible. the ***** is dated. shes looked a LOT better than this.
the leopard shirt brings too much attention to her top, which is already too big in proportion to her bottom half…it look like she got a big ***** man back, not a good look
Go Kelis!!! I really like this look! It’s Euro-POP!
Love it. Her look is so international!
Van-Tokyo, Japan!
I love Kelis and her daring fashionista *****. I wanna know where the hell she got that “record” purse.
Umm, what the hell does NAS see in her? I am not feelin this chick!
I’m not feeling Kellis’ style, but it’s all about self-expression. She shows her individuality to the NATION. Even the mugshot with the pink hair was working for her. Do your thang, girl!
i know coloured skinies are in, but nah nah….
luv da outfit!!! I agree w pearls they dont go
Kelis needs a gig, you know that she has 5 more years to go, child support payments are due !
