Blake Lively Dazzles in Sheer Tank Top at First Public Event in Months

Blake Lively made her Blake Lively first public appearance on a Friday at Glossy’s Pop event in New York City, marking her first outing since July. The actress turned heads with a sophisticated ensemble that combined a sequined maroon tank top and a brown skirt suit, signaling her return to public life after nearly two months away from the spotlight.

Details of Lively’s Fashion and Accessories

Lively completed her chic look with taupe knee-high Christian Louboutin boots and carried a classic Chanel flap bag. She enhanced her outfit with eye-catching accessories, including a jeweled statement brooch, a geometric gold necklace, and multiple stacked bangles. Her hairstyle featured dirty blonde hair styled in barrel curls parted to the side, paired with makeup highlighting tan eyeshadow, illuminated inner eye corners, and a berry-colored lip.

Previous Appearance and Career Ventures

The last time Lively was seen publicly was at Chanel‘s annual Tribeca Film Festival dinner in July, where she combined a cream crochet dress with a denim jacket for a more casual yet elegant look. Beyond her public appearances, Lively has focused on developing her own hair-care brand, Blake Brown, emphasizing fragrance as a key feature.

Blake Brown’s Unique Scent Philosophy

Fragrance was central to Lively’s vision when creating Blake Brown, as she noted the dominant scent lingering in her hair often comes from the products themselves. She shared,

“No matter what perfume I have on, or how much I have on, or how recently I refreshed it, the product that’s in my hair is always the scent that comes through the most,”

—Blake Lively, Actress and Founder.

Before launching her line last summer, Lively found that available hair-care products lacked the scents she preferred, which included woody and gourmand notes. To address this, she partnered with top perfumers to ensure each product—from shampoos to leave-in mists—exuded luxurious fragrance.

Expanding the Fragrance Line for Customers

The demand from customers for complementary fragrances led Lively to expand the collection with three hair and body mists, designed to mirror the scents within the hair-care range. She remarked,

“And I thought that was it,”

—Blake Lively, revealing the unexpected demand for standalone fragrances.

These new mists are crafted to be worn individually or layered, allowing for customization and personal expression. Lively explained,

“I love a recognizable fragrance. I love smelling something and going, ‘Oh, I know that fragrance.’ But I love it even more when it’s like, ‘I know that fragrance, but it’s different on you. What else are you doing?’”

and added,

“So these all work well together. You can wear them on their own, but you can also really layer them.”

—Blake Lively.

Significance of Lively’s Public Return and Brand Focus

Blake Lively’s reappearance at a high-profile event highlights both her continued influence in entertainment and her growing presence in the beauty industry. Her thoughtful approach to blending fashion with fragrance through Blake Brown demonstrates her dedication to creating luxurious, sensory experiences. This return may signal more public engagements ahead and a strengthened focus on expanding her brand’s reach and product offerings.
