Jourdan Dunn, who gave birth only 10 weeks ago, hit the catwalk yesterday for her first post baby runway show:
She stomped for Aquascatum wearing a loose fit trench coat and flat silver heels. Many wondered if Jourdan’s modeling career would end after having a baby at such a young age. She proved the naysayers wrong, and looked pretty fabulous doing so.
Jourdan’s back!
What do you think?

Celebrities and notables were out this weekend, attending fashion shows and press conferences in their most stylish choices. We’ve rounded up the best, but you tell us: Were they hot or did they make you go hmm….?
Naomi Campbell sat front row at the Vivienne Westwood show in London, wearing her signature color: black. Though black can be boring, Naomi kept it interesting with a textured jacket, platform shoes, and great statement jewelry. And look, no sign of black lipliner…Hot!
Janet Jackson also attended the show, but went for more a casual look with a belted blazer, button down, and comfortable pants tucked into pointy toed lace up boots. Janet looks a bit confused…and so are we. We know Ms. Jackson tends to go for more office casual at fashion shows, but this outfit just seems out of place for such a fabulous celebrity and such a high wattage event. Hmmmm….
Over in DC, Michelle Obama hosted a Talent Preview for the Governor’s Ball, rocking a very chic bob hairstyle and a cute belted dress under her typical cardigan. I know we’ve taken a look at her hair before, but somehow this style looks new and hot! Michelle always does it up!
Friends like Dr. Michelle Callahan and stylist Alexander Allen gathered at Lollipop Brunches in New York for a surprise birthday celebration for Selita Ebanks. Selita was clearly caught a bit off guard–she rocked her black knit cap for the duration of the party. But even with a bad hair day, she managed to look hot thanks to her skinny jeans, cute Louboutin pumps, and chic sunglasses.
Lastly, back in London, Gabourey Sidibe rolled out for The Orange British Academy Film Awards Nominee Party. She looks happy and lovely in a deep blue dress set off by silver flats. I’ll defer to Danielle regarding the makeup, but I think Gabby has been stepping it up stylewise–the dress is hot! The color and silhouette are supremely flattering.
What say you?
Hello Beautiful Ones! Danielle here with a round-up of some of the major beauty trends we’ll see next fall.
And it’s the return of makeup! With so many models being sent down the runway with scrubbed faces, a touch of luminizer, and maybe some gloss, it’s refreshing to see so much makeup at the shows this season. Check out some of the trends spotted during New York Fashion Week for Fall 2010:
Deep blue-red lips at Donna Karan
Dramatic smoky eyes at Diane von Furstenberg
Deep vampy lip at Peter Som
Red smoky eye at Cushnie et Ochs
Red eyeliner at Altazurra
Glamorous violet smoky eyes at Carolina Herrera
What makeup trends are you looking forward to next fall?

Hey!
So I finally made it to my first show of London Fashion Week: Matthew Williamson.
A huge crowd gathered outside Lawrence Hall on Greycoat Street to take in the latest collection of the London designer best known for his use of bright colors and psychadelic patterns.
After a bit of a wait, we were finally let in:
The venue was quite large, and I took my seat next to a nice young lady on the second row. After chit chatting a bit, I found out it was Britt of Fashionista.com! I spied several other editors and stars on the front row, including Sienna Miller, Shingai Shoniwa of the Noisettes, Model Tolula Adeyemi, Kate Lamphear of Elle US, Suzy Menkes of the International Herald Tribute, and Derek Blasberg of Style.com.
Though the collection was for Williamson’s Fall 2010 line, it seemed he was mixing both spring and winter pieces, parading out brightly colored sleeveless dresses in royal blues, bright pinks, and oranges along with fur coats and weighty wool jackets.
My personal favorite was a metallic draped front gold mini dress towards the end of the collection.
Hot, no?
After the show, I made my way to the front, and snapped a picture with Undercover Fashionista of 2009, Shingai Shoniwa of the Noisettes along with model Tolula Adeyemi:
They were super nice, and promised to check out The Fashion Bomb. I hope they do!
Tonight I have a few more presentations and parties on tap. Will keep you posted!
Smootches!
*I wearing my new The Extras the Stone Necklace from Karmaloop.com. Do you like?
After the Matthew Williamson show, I of course caught a few fly fashionistas:
This young lady, Christian, is actually from Denver, Colorado! She’s in town studying at London College of Fashion. I loved her natural hairstyle and fun hair accessory.
I also caught model Jeneil Williams on her way out of the venue. She was working her Hermès handbag and black fur coat. Hot!
What do you think?
Hey Guys!
So in between running to shows (updates to come), I’ve been doing a little shopping:
Yes, that’s how happy shopping makes me:)
My friends and I dipped into the East End, a fashionable area full of vintage shops, shoe stores, and boutiques selling items by indie designers:
While walking around, I happened upon these casual stylistas who were selling old clothes for 1 pound each:
Cute, no?
I’ve been having a great time:
Stay tuned for more updates.
*I’m rocking my new Foil Coco Tank from DJPremium.com, a Suti Bag in Black from Karmaloop.com, and bling I snagged at a Gilt Groupe sale! Yes, I’m wearing my fave American Apparel leggings, but think the top is long enough…what say you?
