In September 2014, Jessica Simpson was a mom-of-two, a recording artist, an actress, and a fashion designer. She juggled her career and mommy duties, yet looking amazing still seemed to be on her daily checklist.
On a Saturday afternoon, the then-34-year-old entertainer arrived at The Grove in Los Angeles for the Nordstrom fashion show, showcasing her autumn fashion collection — a testament to her evolution into what she once modestly described as ‘I never thought I’d be some fashion mogul!’

Wearing a black number, Jessica Simpson looked ultra chic as she sashayed down the runway at the end of the show. She displayed her legs in a pair of skorts worn with a long-sleeved top and a wide-brimmed hat.
The entertainer let her blond locks fall over her shoulders, framing her beautifully made-up face. She accessorized with jewelry, including large hoop earrings and a cuff, for a more elegant appeal.

A pair of leopard-print pumps from her collection — the ‘Carlin’ pump booties gave her look a hint of fierceness. Her outfit choice perfectly echoed her personal style philosophy: ‘I love to be comfortable, but I also love to play up the glamour.’ They feature pointed toes, back zip closures, cutout details, and slender studded straps.
