New York born actress and singer, Jennifer Lopez looked sensational at the CFDA Awards this year.
She sported a stunning orange two piece, consisting of a long sleeved cropped turtleneck top and a flowing maxi skirt.
We love how it’s been vamped up with the addition of the glitter on the top – so A-list!
In true J-Lo style, she has chosen to accessorise with some gorgeous drop earrings and a barely there makeup look.
A great matching pair of specs with this look would be these #totallook DW007 examples from us here at SelectSpecs.
