Blake Lively took a bold fashion step at the 2024 Beauty Inc Awards in New York City on Wednesday, standing out in a radiant sunshine yellow ensemble. The 37-year-old actress, known for her role in It Ends with Us, skipped the typical winter color palette for a monochromatic yellow look. Her outfit featured a subtle sequin blouse, which she wore partially unbuttoned, showcasing her cleavage. She paired the blouse with a tailored pair of skinny pants and a pale yellow quilted Chanel bag.
However, it was Blake’s choice of footwear that truly caught everyone's attention. She wore Christian Louboutin’s eye-catching ‘Multicolor Hawaiian Print Crackled Leather Follies Spikes Pumps’. These shoes were a burst of color, adorned with colorful spike embellishments, and had a pointed toe design, making them a showstopper at the event.
Blake Lively was honored at the event as the "Newcomer of the Year" for her successful debut into the haircare industry with her line, Blake Brown. The actress-turned-entrepreneur launched the haircare collection, which features eight products, earlier this year in July. In an Instagram post announcing her new venture, Blake shared her deep connection to her hair, explaining that it has always been an essential part of her identity.

Reflecting on how she developed her haircare line, Blake revealed that she had spent seven years perfecting every aspect of the products, from formulation to performance. Her goal was to create high-quality products that could perform like professional salon products but be more affordable for everyday consumers.

She noted that achieving the best quality while keeping costs down had been a challenge but was worth the effort.
