Bestselling cookbook author and TV personality Ayesha Curry has been making waves with some serious New York Fashion Week ensembles. But the look that has gotten the most attention? Well, it includes a tampon.

On Saturday, Curry, who is married to basketball player Steph Curry, posted a photo to her Instagram in which she’s wearing a crop top, shades and high-waisted pants, but all eyes were directed to the item she was holding in her right hand: a tampon.

“Tampon ... but make it fashion,” she cheekily captioned the post.

The 30-year-old mom of three got a lot of love in her comments for the photo.

“Hottest tampon photo I’ve ever seen,” one commenter wrote.

“Just keeping it real,” wrote another.

“The realest thing on the ‘gram today,” said a third.

“I say skip the clutch and just carry it!” chimed in someone else.

Curry’s other Fashion Week posts may not feature feminine products, but they definitely feature fierce looks — including one hairstyle that she gave an inspiration nod to Diana Ross’s ‘do in the 1975 film Mahogany.

Curry, who is a co-owner of restaurant chain International Smoke, also recently announced that she is launching a lifestyle magazine. Still, the ultra-busy entrepreneur has found time to hit numerous shows this weekend, including Tibi and Ulla Johnson.
