    Fashion Bombshell of the Day: Tomilola from Nigeria

    by Claire

    Take a gander at Nigerian born, Bradford, UK based Bombshell, Tomilola:

    She says, “My style is a basically a reflection of my mood.”

    “… I dress the way I feel.”


    “Sometimes I like to dress like a boy…”

    “… and sometimes I happily embrace the fact that I am a growing woman.”


    ” You’d hardly ever catch me in black if there aren’t tights.”


    “… I love colours and prints.”


    “You can check out my blog at www.theamateurescada.blogspot.com.”


    You better work it! No complaints, only praise! You’re a Bombshell in my book!

      FINALLY, a bomb shell! She looks great and seems to have a great attitude about fashion. Try new things and dress for your shape (which seems to be perfection).

      Really nice! I especially like the way she pays homage to her heritage; adding African pieces without it looking costume-y. And what an awesome figure.

      NO SHADE BUT IT SEEMS LIKE THE SAME TYPE OF BOMBSHELLS THAT GET THE HIGHEST PERCENT OF THE RATINGS. BASICALLY THE ONES THAT HAVE STYLES THAT ARE SIMILAR TO URBAN OUTFITTERS, ITS LIKE THE SAME OLD THING

      Honestly, her style isn’t cohesive AT ALL. I love how everyone that reads this site JUMPS on the Bombshell bandwagon if the bombshell is AFRICAN, like they can do no wrong. The elitist African attitude that you all seem to have is sickening. This woman’s style is a 7 out of 10 at best.

      You all aren’t even mentioning her clothes or her style story, just pointing out the fact that she’s Nigerian, then…oh I like her pants in the 3rd look. Give me a break!

      @Tiffany… from experience i know 7 out of 10 is within the A range. So what does that make her? A bombshell no?

      @Tiffany is it THAT serious? There has been some Nigerian fashion posts where some ppl were not feeling the fashion bombshell/bomber. So the whole, “The elitist African attitude that you all seem to have is sickening” is seriously ridiculous and unnecessary. If people have pride of where they come from AND like the fashion bomber/bombshell then so be it.

      @Tiffany…oh chile hush. You and @mi manning need to take notes, celebrate others and travel more. The only sickening thing in here is the envy. The green in your eyes has got to go. Tomi is amazing! Her look is polished. Bombshell! Ah yes, big ups to all Africans making us proud and to all the black women in all continents making us proud. We are one!
