Keke Palmer brought the theme of her last album, “Big Boss,” to the new Zenni Optical eyewear campaign, titled “Board Certified.” The photos were released on Monday and feature Palmer wearing classic eyewear styles while channeling her businesswoman side in tailored ensembles.

The star can be seen wearing a black Karen Millen double-breasted suit with glossy buttons and other menswear-inspired outfits.

“Keke Palmer is as fashionable as she is fierce. No matter what she’s conquering — or where or when — she does so effortlessly and with style,” Veronica Alcaro, vice president of Zenni, said in a statement. “We’re excited to release the ‘Board Certified’ curation as it reflects the heart of Keke’s style and sophistication as a true force of nature in and out of the boardroom, and we expect it will inspire others to adopt her bold vision.”

Palmer has been a brand ambassador for the optical brand since July when she featured in Zenni’s first “Find Your Frame of Mind” campaign titled “Summer Love.” Those eyewear styles aligned with a summer mood, featuring colorful eyeglasses and vibrant sunglasses.

Along with the latest Zenni collection, Palmer also recently appeared in Usher’s music video for his single “Boyfriend.” The video, which has already amassed 5 million views on YouTube, showcased the pair dancing in ’90s streetwear outfits inspired by Usher’s look in his 2001 music video “U Don’t Have To Call.”

Keke Palmer x Zenni Optical “Board Certified” collection is now available at Zenni.com/Keke.
