Happy Friday!
Today’s Bombshell is Kristen from Brooklyn:
She says, “My style is very eclectic…”
“…daring…”
“… and sometimes very simple.”
” I don’t think too hard…”
“… or try to recreate a celeb’s style.”
” When I walk in my closet, I find one key piece….. “
“and attempt to find complimentary wardrobe choices.”
“See more of my style at www.GoldLabeler.com“
Hey Kristen! You certainly have a look all your own, and I think your describe your style to a tee! I wasn’t on board with every outfit submitted, but I definitely think you have more hits than misses. Cute!
What say you, Bombshells?

Interesting….Love her confidence tho:)
January 13, 2012 1:06 pm
I don’t like any of it.
January 13, 2012 1:12 pm
Not a big fan of this kind of style. It honestly seems like there was little or no thought put into any of her looks…or maybe I just don’t get it.
January 13, 2012 1:18 pm
@ That Girl agreed.
January 13, 2012 1:20 pm
I thought the “Bombshell” feature was supposed to showcase the personal style of selected submissions? I’m not trying to throw shade because I do respect this site and its overall message, but why are lackluster submissions posted if we all know negative comments will be made? It’s like you’re setting the “Bombshell” up for failure.
January 13, 2012 1:22 pm
She has a couple of nice pieces (leather skirt, yellow, short-sleeved blazer), but as for complete outfits: I’ll pass. Too much going on.
And about those white tights…
January 13, 2012 1:24 pm
I absolutely adore her style!!! I met her a few times while shopping in the store she works at, shes a sweetheart and her style is VERY unique!!!
January 13, 2012 1:25 pm
Thing is there are different styles out here, everybody isn’t into the same thing, but I feel like maybe people should just vote in some cases, because I know it has to suck to see nothing but negative comments. I admire her confidence, but it’s okay to just say, its not my style. IDK Bombshellers are Harsh as heck sometimes.
January 13, 2012 1:31 pm
I haven’t been feeling any of the bombshells lately. I’m just at a lost for words right now :(
January 13, 2012 1:35 pm
Great submission for Friday the 13th. :)
January 13, 2012 1:54 pm
Her style is her style, there is no better way to be than one of a kind
January 13, 2012 1:57 pm
My comment has nothing to do with fashion, but her pictures made me smile. Nice shape, and I actually like the blond hair.
January 13, 2012 2:11 pm
I never really post comments, but on this I could not hold back. I don’t like her looks and is it me or is she brushing her teeth on the first pic?
January 13, 2012 2:14 pm
Don’t like it.
January 13, 2012 2:17 pm
I like that she’s so daring with her makeup. She seems like a lot of fun; like she doesn’t take it too seriously and just likes fun clothes.
January 13, 2012 2:29 pm
I don’t like it but, I really admire her daring looks and its just enough to not make it look like a costume. It is HER STYLE
January 13, 2012 2:29 pm
YIKES!!
January 13, 2012 2:35 pm
I def dig her confidence and she def has her own style. No need in anyone being mean if you don’t like it just say it’s not for you. I like the white and the leather skirt.
January 13, 2012 2:36 pm
LMAO… OH LORD>!
But since she likes it and rocks it in her OWN WAY. Props to her for being brave :)
Great Post for today Friday The 13th :)
January 13, 2012 2:42 pm
What in the hell ? I can’t today is friday . Somebody get her a stylist quick WTF
January 13, 2012 2:52 pm
omg guys!! I can’t believe you can’t apreciate the fun in this….and the non stagey pose, I truly believe she is just being herself and not trying to think of creative fashion. Bravo
January 13, 2012 2:56 pm
Why are people coming on here saying it’s her style?? Isn’t that point obvious?? Let’s treat that as a moot point shall we?
Secondly, if you submit pictures to a fashion website, expect to be critiqued (critiqued respectfully that is). She knew what was up when she submitted.
January 13, 2012 3:08 pm
Nooooo suh! Dat nuh mek it! Mi Rassss…..ah wah di…???? And I’m certainly not feeling that “I’m a mean ole lion” look in that second to last pic….*takes a swig of Jameson*
January 13, 2012 3:14 pm
Not a fashion Bombshell. Don’t like it at all.
January 13, 2012 3:16 pm
I think she looks really interesting! Not my taste, but she’s not cookie cutter, and in a world where everyone straight up copies Rihanna and Kim Kardashian, she is a breathe of fresh air.
January 13, 2012 3:18 pm
I wish there was a voting option that said “chiiiiiiiiiile why?” because that’s exactly what I said…however confidence makes everything better.
January 13, 2012 3:18 pm
She seems like she has fun when she gets dressed. It is definitely not the worse I’ve seen. I like the quirky use of fur pieces. I think she could rock a different shade of blond hair. Perhaps one that was more brown or warmer.
January 13, 2012 3:18 pm
I usually find something I like about each bombshell but this time i just couldnt. Make up, hair, clothes, etc…..just all wrong :(
January 13, 2012 3:22 pm
i love the 3rd solo pic
January 13, 2012 3:29 pm
No way… she lost me once i got to that see through object… nice pieces but together nooooooooooooooo!!! This is a fashion bomb that has blown up and away! I’m hoping this was a dare… Sorry….
January 13, 2012 3:34 pm
I really like her first outfit with the tights and the one with the fur collared jacket. She doesn’t look like anyone I’ve seen which is so REFRESHING! Sick of all the KK knockoffs.
January 13, 2012 3:35 pm
Not bombshell worthy, too wacky. The year is quickly decending.
January 13, 2012 3:42 pm
Love the oxford booties, her leather skirt and her beautiful hair!
January 13, 2012 4:01 pm
Babyyyyyyyyyy I am at a loss for words. Kudos to you girlfriend :)
January 13, 2012 4:07 pm
you know what, the way she described her style is kind of how I think about dressing myself. We have different tastes, but I could definitely get on board with not thinking too hard/ not recreating celeb style. Do you, girl!
January 13, 2012 4:19 pm
love the shoes in the last pic with the bow! love the spunkyness…but overall it was just not cohesive…
January 13, 2012 4:19 pm
looks costumey
January 13, 2012 4:25 pm
I normally look but never comment, but today I must. Is this a joke?
January 13, 2012 4:26 pm
she a theater girl… or a mix of the old 60s + new 90s
January 13, 2012 4:30 pm
?????????????????????????????????????
January 13, 2012 4:31 pm
*blank stare*
January 13, 2012 4:34 pm
**very different**
January 13, 2012 4:34 pm
Some people try too hard to be “different” and I’m SO SO SO sick of people just throwing on anything and calling it fashion and style and then worse yet, being called a BOMBSHELL!!!! It’s nonsense and I’m over it!!!! Kudos to the girls actually doing it…and to FBDaily…..you can do better than this!!!!! Just sayin!
January 13, 2012 4:35 pm
For some reason I don’t see nothing wrong here I thought people would go crazy for her like me but then again people come for what they don’t understand and I love all her pieces she’s different I like :) I get her
January 13, 2012 4:58 pm
I like her style, great choice for a Friday. I love her bold funky sense of fashion. Bravo to you for making it as Friday’s Bombshell! Flaunt your style and in fashion expect to hear negative comments, take them in heart and smile!
January 13, 2012 6:55 pm
Knowing how it feels to put yourself out there to be scrutinized by everyone that follows this site, I say congrats to all of the Fashion Bombshells. Regardless of the all the negative comments you may read, the editor obviously found something unique about you. You will always get negativity, especially when being involved in fashion and media. So never allow anyone’s meaningless words offend you because guess what: while they are spending their time behind their computers being rude, you are making a name for yourself. I like her funky style and I say don’t change one thing :)
January 13, 2012 6:58 pm
Ummmm, my mom said if you have nothing nice to say, then don’t say anything at all so I’m just gonna keep my mouth shut. Great that she is confidence though :)
January 13, 2012 7:26 pm
This must be a joke. Right?
January 13, 2012 7:36 pm
Girl what?
January 13, 2012 7:39 pm
N.O. no.
January 13, 2012 7:51 pm
I love her style it’s pretty an quirky but not over the top eccentric
January 13, 2012 8:57 pm
LMAO at Cort’s ““chiiiiiiiiiile why?” Her style makes me sad.
January 13, 2012 9:51 pm
NOPE!!!!!!!!
January 13, 2012 10:08 pm
I like her free spirited style, she seems like a neo-hippie. I also appreciate her blatant honesty in describing her style.
January 13, 2012 10:10 pm
None of these looks are cohesive.
January 13, 2012 10:39 pm
LMBO at these comments, wow. She seems like a fun person to be around and her dog is too cute. I’ve been to NYC a million times and her style is nothing out of the ordinary for females there. I’m am so mad at her for submitting the photo with the plastic vest.
January 13, 2012 10:54 pm
OK. Everyone says “My style is eclectic,” but that doesn’t mean you can throw on any random assortment of clothes and call it style. The word style connotes good taste and I cannot say the same about some of the things people are passing off as fashion nowadays. Throwing a plastic bag over yourself might make you one of a kind, but it certainly doesn’t make you stylish.
I’m sorry, we need to stop encouraging people who dress like this to call themselves fashionistas. I’m all for individual expression and for fashion being accessible to everyone (I certainly can’t afford high-end brands and so I don’t wear them) but there’s a certain line you don’t cross when you’re going to be presenting yourself to the world as someone to be admired.
January 13, 2012 11:31 pm
I think she need to be on the site stylelikeu. Thumbs up for being u and having your own style.
January 14, 2012 1:11 am
I think shes very fly!I agree with Dameion,I get it! Ppl dont always understand what they couldnt see themselves wearing…very Nylon magazine!
January 14, 2012 1:22 am
Ok it’s not my fav but congrats for having confidence to pull it off!
And Justsayin is right stylelikeu would be good for this look.
January 14, 2012 1:25 am
And just a heads up girl. Not even Snow White pulled off the white tights look and that was a fantasy world.
January 14, 2012 1:31 am
shes not my cup of tea but atleast she evokes a sense of emotion aside from boredom! Rock it out girl you work it I love the confidence! I admire that she owns her style !
January 14, 2012 3:35 am
It’s different it works for her I wouldn’t dare be caught dead wearing plastic anywhere but I love her confidence and she did say daring soooo we should have expected something like this. Lol
January 14, 2012 3:44 am
Looks like garbage trash style to me. sowwweee. me no likey!
January 14, 2012 7:06 am
I find her style very refreshing. While it’s not one I have the chutzpah to pull off, I think it suits her to a tee! And she is cute as a button, looking like Neneh Cherry’s lil sis!! :)
January 14, 2012 8:50 am
AND SHE HAS A GREAT CURVE!! When I saw the pictures I thought I would see nice comments but well…I think she really is very refreshing. Like those runway articles you’d never wear, she is inspiring to me. & Again…..She has a wonderful body!!
Anyone else notice?
January 14, 2012 9:45 am
lol this is terrible. and im being by saying just that
January 14, 2012 11:56 am
This look is “New Brooklyn”, or at least that’s what my family in “Old Brooklyn” (East Flatbush) calls it.
January 14, 2012 12:54 pm
WOOOOOOOW.. Some of these comments are REALLY shallow.. Why cant she throw on what ever she wants and feel GREAT n CONFIDENT in it?..
She obviously feels like she looks great she had the confidence to submit her pictures so kudos to her..
January 14, 2012 1:40 pm
She has some good key pieces, the way she puts SOME of her outfits together is not taste(not all of her looks are miss) But with her style she could have come up with a more interesting way to wear the plastic vest.
January 14, 2012 2:32 pm
not my fav. i could not wear any of these pieces w/o my family and friends trying to get me committed
January 14, 2012 3:25 pm
Got to give it to her for making her style her own.
January 15, 2012 11:56 am
She said she doesn’t put too much thought into her style, we can tell.
January 15, 2012 12:15 pm
What……the…….(!@#$%).
January 15, 2012 12:43 pm
I love the blond hair.
January 15, 2012 3:15 pm
I love love her style! Listen… Fashion is an art. And just like any other art, you either love it or not! It is still an aesthetic piece irregardless of how anyone feels. Feelings are unreliable anyway :) She has her own look and individuality about it & I certainly love and appreciate that! Thank you Claire for giving us variety ~Miss Rexti~
January 15, 2012 6:05 pm
Man I was OOBER surprised that she got so many negative responses. Stop being so rude. This is her personal style NOT yours!
You look great! I love your fun collective style and your positive attitude!
January 15, 2012 9:59 pm
LMAOOOOOOO!
>-< tis all!
January 16, 2012 12:51 am
Sorry but so fare these 2012 fashion bombshells just are not bringing the hotness that there was in 2011, I dont like one thing she had on. Fingers crossed that 2012 bombshells will improve…
January 16, 2012 12:54 am
Ummm its not april yet Claire…. lol I was waiting for the “April Fools!” Because your got to be kidding me!
January 16, 2012 5:51 am
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO,NOT NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
January 16, 2012 12:20 pm
we are being punked right?
January 16, 2012 1:31 pm
:( I dunno…sometimes I just skip over the Bombshells of the day feature….I just cant….trust me, I’ve been in her shoes, I was once a bombshell and I know how the comments can hurt…but I’m really not sure what’s happening here. If I see her in person, I may just stare :(
January 16, 2012 2:11 pm
The dog is too cute.
January 16, 2012 4:53 pm
its called ECLECTIC, ECCENTRIC, DIFFERENT OR WEIRD, BUT STYLE IS STYLE REGARDLESS!! TASTE IS TASTE….
January 17, 2012 11:41 am
That plastic thing though… *blank stare*
January 17, 2012 1:41 pm
These Bombshells have been TERRIBLE this month! LOL
January 18, 2012 9:04 am
PEOPLE ALWAYS WANT TO MAKE NEGATIVE COMMENTS BUT DON’T HAVE ENOUGH BALLS TO PUT THEMSELVES OUT THERE ON THE FASHION BOMB TALKING ALL THAT MESS LET’S SEE HOW FIERCE YOUR STYLE IS, IT’S HER STYLE HER MONEY & SHE LOOKS MIGHTY HAPPY ABOUT IT, THATS ALL THAT MATTERS
January 24, 2012 12:17 pm
Love her confidence but it drives me CRAZY when someone wears dark/black stockings with nude shoes, it totally defeats the purpose of wearing nude shoes and honestly just looks bad come on “bombshells” lets get it together
