Brandy Norwood attended the 7th annual ESSENCE Black Women In Hollywood luncheon held at the Beverly Hills Hotel on Thursday (February 27) in Beverly Hills, California. She was one of the first to arrive and one of the last to exit the red carpet because she took time to speak to everyone.

When it was my turn I asked her how she picked this gorgeous red Elena Reva sleeveless pant look. She said it wanted something edgy, but was still classic for a luncheon, explaining that it stood out on a rack of clothes shown to her by her stylist. She then went onto talk about her new hair cut; which did to celebrate turning 35 on February 11. “It makes me feel grown. It makes me feel like a woman”, she said with a cheeky smile, going on to describe her personal style as ‘bohemian chic.’

Brandy styled her ensemble with red suede Louboutin platform pumps and a Helmel multi-coloured snakeskin clutch.
