Hey Bombshells!
Can you believe it’s almost the end of 2011?
From models like Joan Smalls dominating the runway to rappers like Nicki Minaj twirling in a myriad of fashion editorials, this year has been one to remember for Fashion Bomb celebs. For the next few weeks, we’re going to take a look back at all the hottest trends, red carpet queens (and kings), and of course our Favorite Bombers and Bombshells:

For Best of 2007, 2008, and 2009, I offered my two cents on who should take the crown in each category. Last year, I asked for suggestions from you guys–I think that method works!
Leave a comment and tell me who you think qualifies for the following categories:
1. Fashionista of the Year
2. Most Fashionable Man
3. Beauty Diva of the Year
4. Top Trends of 2011
5. Fashion Bombshell of the Year
6. Fashion Bomber of the Year
7. Model of the Year
8. Outfit of the Year
The fun starts on Monday with our Fashionista of the Year contest.
This is gonna be fu-un!
