\"Marlo<\/p>\n

In a world where social media often equates fashion with luxury logos and sky-high price tags,\u00a0Real Housewives of Atlanta<\/em> star Marlo Hampton just reminded everyone that true style can\u2019t be bought. The fashion icon recently attended an event wearing a simple $25 dress from Fashion Nova, and yet, she managed to look like she stepped straight off a designer runway.<\/p>\n

For Marlo, who\u2019s long been praised for her bold fashion sense and impeccable taste, this moment wasn\u2019t just another outfit reveal \u2014 it was a statement. She proved that style isn\u2019t defined by the label stitched inside your clothes, but by the confidence, creativity, and individuality you bring to them.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not about the brand; it\u2019s about how you wear it,\u201d Marlo once said. \u201cYou can mix high and low, designer and affordable \u2014 it\u2019s all about making it your own.\u201d<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s exactly what she did. Pairing her budget-friendly Fashion Nova dress with understated accessories and her signature attitude, Marlo demonstrated that elegance doesn\u2019t require a four-figure outfit. Her look radiated the same grace and sophistication that fans are used to seeing when she wears couture pieces \u2014 and that\u2019s the magic of real style.<\/p>\n

Fashion, at its core, has always been about self-expression. The ability to take any piece \u2014 whether it\u2019s thrifted, vintage, or straight off a sale rack \u2014 and transform it into something that feels uniquely yours is what separates trend followers from style leaders. Marlo Hampton belongs firmly in the latter category.<\/p>\n

Over the years, she\u2019s become known for her ability to mix high fashion with streetwear, blending textures, colors, and silhouettes in unexpected ways. She\u2019s worn designer gowns on red carpets and turned heads in casual jeans and tees. But what remains consistent through it all is her confidence \u2014 the unshakable belief that style is a reflection of who you are, not how much you spend.<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s influencer-driven fashion scene, where \u201cexpensive\u201d is often mistaken for \u201cstylish,\u201d Marlo\u2019s message feels refreshing. Her choice to proudly wear an affordable piece in a high-profile setting challenges the industry\u2019s obsession with exclusivity and reminds fans that great style is inclusive.<\/p>\n

\u201cReal fashion is about how you put it together,\u201d Marlo says \u2014 and she\u2019s living proof.<\/p>\n

Whether she\u2019s draped in designer couture or rocking a bargain buy, Marlo Hampton continues to redefine what it means to be fashionable. Her Fashion Nova moment wasn\u2019t just a viral headline \u2014 it was a celebration of creativity over cost, and a powerful reminder that confidence will always be the best accessory of all.<\/p>\n

Tom Schwartz<\/strong>\u00a0welcomed\u00a0his new girlfriend, model\u00a0Kiana Carroll<\/p>\n

<\/strong>, to his podcast on Tuesday.<\/span><\/p>\n

As he promoted the latest episode of\u00a0Detox Retox<\/em>, the 43-year-old\u00a0Vanderpump Rules<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0alum,\u00a0who split from ex-wife\u00a0Katie Maloney<\/strong>, 38, in 2022, shared a soft launch with Kiana, 27, as the two of them were heard discussing their modeling careers and the Bravo reality show.<\/p>\n

\u201cEver wonder what it\u2019s really like to make a living as a model?\u201d Tom asked in the caption of his November 12 post on\u00a0Instagram. \u201cAt some point, you\u2019ve probably thought damn, I\u2019d like to get paid to look pretty. But it\u2019s more than a just being a pretty face & competition is FIERCE.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not for the faint of heart. Job insecurity lurks after every casting and for every breakout star, there are a troves of stunning faces barely booking. I did my share of print work back in my early LA days. Fed off the scraps from the the big models but even then always felt lucky to book a gig,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

Tom then said he had interviewed Kiana, whom he described as \u201cone of [his] favorite humans in the world,\u201d in New York City, applauding her as charismatic, funny, and beautiful.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith Cold beer in hand, we riff on the current state of the modeling biz from her chic high-rise apartment. Here\u2019s your peek behind the curtain into the glamorous, gritty, and unpredictable world of professional modeling [PodcastOne],\u201d he teased.<\/p>\n

On the November 11 episode of\u00a0Detox Retox<\/em>, Kiana revealed she was discovered by a scouting agent in Orlando, where she was attending college, sharing that he connected her to an agent who linked her with a large agency in New York City. Meanwhile, Tom joked about his own modeling past, admitting that he was \u201cnever a real model.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was a \u2018mactor,\u2019\u201d he explained. \u201cWhen I first started,\u00a0Tom Sandoval<\/strong>\u00a0gave me his old book from his Miami modeling days and I had like four pictures in there and I was always almost embarrassed to hand it over to prospective clients.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moving on to Bravo, Kiana said she was a fan of\u00a0The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0and compared it to\u00a0Pump Rules<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou couldn\u2019t have scripted a better show \u2026 it\u2019s so perfect. Some people probably say that about\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a once-in-a-lifetime, lightning in a bottle scenario,\u201d Tom agreed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
