To amp up her look, the “Ladies First” hitmaker accessorized with pink shades, oversized hoop earrings and a gold chain. She opted for minimal makeup and pulled her hair back into a bun.
Completing Latifah’s look was a pair of black wedge sandals. The shoe style featured a wide leather strap across the toe and had stud details around the ankle and on the counter and sat on a woven wedge heel. Effortless summer outfits are taken to the next level when you finish them off with wedge sandals.
