Karrueche, who previously dated Chris Brown and NFL player Victor Cruz, showed off her new curled pixie haircut, paired with a Khaite Resort 2022 outfit that appeared to channel Toni Braxton’s style.

Her ensemble showcased striking gold earrings and a glowy, bronze-tinged makeup look. The high-waisted belted pants had a slight flair that covered her footwear.

In August 2016, Karrueche Tran joined Christina Milian at the Good Brother Clothing pre-launch pool party in Hollywood Hills.

Unlike Christina, who displayed her assets, Karrueche kept her curves concealed underneath a loose-fitting red shirt dress.

The then-28-year-old multi-ethnic model wore a baggy dress with quarter sleeves and a thigh-grazing hemline.

She styled the look with minimal accessories, including a gold watch, a couple of rings, and a pair of racy thigh-high boots.

Karrueche amped up the sexiness with her over-the-knee boots from Tom Ford.
