Sorry for the delay with posts and today’s Bombshell!
Had a bit of a rough start this morning, but I assure you Nikki from DC was worth the wait:
She says, “[I'm] an entrepreneur from DC whose style would be described as classic chic.”
“… I love structured pieces…”
“… great shoes…”
“… and vintage Oscar De La Renta.”
“ I have a lifestyle blog at www.beautejadore.com.”
“… [It] highlights my love of everything beautiful from fashion…”
“… to beauty, home decor and food.”
Yet another fabulous Bombshell! I love your classic, chic looks. Very sophisticated and definitely lovely!

Yep Nikki D, you are a bombshell! My fav was the classic yellow skirt with blue jean shirt.
October 12, 2012 1:31 pm
I’m liking it. It’s very professional and classic (for once a bombshell’s self description actually matches the pictures). I’d like to see more straight on pictures cause profiles are kind of deceiving but overall good job :P
Also nice shoes!
October 12, 2012 1:31 pm
Very nice. I love the denim shirt with yellow skirt look. Reminds me of something Shala Monroque would wear.
October 12, 2012 1:31 pm
This that grown woman, about my business, swag! love this.
October 12, 2012 1:34 pm
Yes!!!! Finally a Bombshell. It has been a long time coming lol. Love her style its classic with a twist
October 12, 2012 1:35 pm
Nice style and her body is killer.
October 12, 2012 1:35 pm
THIS is a bombshell. A real one. Great style. I spot some outfits inspired by Shala Monroque. ;)
Hair, Make-up. clothes, accessories, face: A++++++++++
October 12, 2012 1:37 pm
LOVE. HER!!!!
October 12, 2012 1:39 pm
Definitely a Bombshell! Love that cropped jacket in the first pic! #FIRE
October 12, 2012 1:41 pm
Yes! everyting about her is so lovely.
October 12, 2012 1:43 pm
LMAO that’s because it WAS something Shala wore. She copied the COMPLETE OUTFIT! lol I can’t post pics but google “Shala Monroque Denim Shirt” look at the google image results. Anyway, she has nice style…
October 12, 2012 1:43 pm
Finally, some real talent. She betta WERK!!
October 12, 2012 1:44 pm
@Donna “Very nice. I love the denim shirt with yellow skirt look. Reminds me of something Shala Monroque would wear.”
October 12, 2012 1:46 pm
Jacket/Coat and Shoe Game of Ms. Nikki to all the other Bombshells are just like the Washington Nationals to the rest of MLB… WAY OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE! GREAT BOMBSHELL TODAY! – JT
October 12, 2012 1:46 pm
Very nice! Bombshell for sure. So many are inspired by the instagram vixen look, including our beloved VH1 celebs.
October 12, 2012 1:50 pm
I like her blog a lot and immediately followed when I stumbled upon it a few days ago. She’s got good style!
October 12, 2012 1:50 pm
So sexy, so mature! And most importantly INSPIRING! A’s across the board… “Yes ma’am, yes girl”
October 12, 2012 1:51 pm
@Well Hell…I was displaying a little diplomacy in my initial comment…nice looks none the less
October 12, 2012 1:51 pm
Perfection… her looks can actually translate into a real grown woman lifestyle. She represents DC well… not EVERYONE dresses like fuddy-duddy or a club rat here
October 12, 2012 1:53 pm
ABOUT F***KING TIME!!!…excuse my language.
Bombshell…that’s all I have to say…going to her blog.
October 12, 2012 1:54 pm
Nikki, love your blog! especially the DIY segment.
October 12, 2012 1:55 pm
One of the best in a while. Great looks.
October 12, 2012 1:57 pm
photos that actually match the description! whaaaaaa? she is stunning.
October 12, 2012 1:58 pm
Finally a DC fashionista! She’s very chic and sophisticated. And I also noticed the Monroque outfit. Nothing wrong with getting inspiration, but not sure if I can call someone a bombshell who likes to plagiarize.
October 12, 2012 2:05 pm
THIS is what I’m here for! Your body is everything and that waist is snatched! (too much drag queen lingo?)
October 12, 2012 2:11 pm
nice! clean
October 12, 2012 2:11 pm
@Savage & @Styleordye- DITTO!!!!
Love those turquoise treousers; LOVE HER STYLE PERIOD!
October 12, 2012 2:12 pm
Fabulous style and she has a great figure! FINALLY a fashion bombshell!
October 12, 2012 2:13 pm
I visit her blog frequently….Love her style,cooking and DIY project. She is such a fashionistan and fashionbomshell….Go Nikki!!!
October 12, 2012 2:15 pm
YES! Finally a bombshell (and I never comment on Bombshells)! Great job! Clean, sophisticated and definitely inspiring! Thank you
October 12, 2012 2:16 pm
I like her style, but I would have also liked some straight on pictures.
October 12, 2012 2:16 pm
WORK! And I love it that she’s from DC and her structured pieces are SWELL!
October 12, 2012 2:21 pm
Loving the parka in pic 3! She’s working it! Definitely a bombshell!
October 12, 2012 2:23 pm
finally, some grown woman style! i am loving every single outfit (plagiarized or not) going to check her blog :-)
October 12, 2012 2:23 pm
Love… Will def be checking out her blog!
October 12, 2012 2:24 pm
I too love the denim and yellow skirt pairing. Less profile shots, more straight on to see the tops.
I was curious about this Shala Monroque reference. Here’s the denim shirt, yellow skirt outfit on Shala:

October 12, 2012 2:26 pm
Love the White Jacket!!!
October 12, 2012 2:27 pm
Bombshell Alert….Finally!
October 12, 2012 2:29 pm
Ok…LOVE! The clothes peeked my interest and then I went to her blog and fell in love. Her DIY projects are so cute! And her closet and house look to die for. Bombshell for sure!
October 12, 2012 2:29 pm
YAAASSSSSSS!!!!! She better werk!!!
October 12, 2012 2:31 pm
YAAAASSSS!!!
October 12, 2012 2:33 pm
LOVE! Her closet, DIY projects and the glimpses of her house on her blog are to die for!
October 12, 2012 2:35 pm
She’ll make you look twice. Great pics! I wasn’t wowwed but I was pleased!
October 12, 2012 2:35 pm
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSS! Momma- DMV stand up. Headed to the blog.
October 12, 2012 2:42 pm
Bombshell with great shoes. Only thing was they drew attention to her calves which are out of proportion with her upper leg area (deathly shape)! I know she’s killing people softly out in those streets. Some calf raises, then continue on with all that fabulous style, Nikki.
October 12, 2012 2:47 pm
OMG I’ve met her before LMAO. VERY nice person with a great spirit and killer style. She’s actually much prettier in person.
October 12, 2012 2:47 pm
Now THIS is how you do classic chic and still keep it interesting! A lot of previous bombshells classified their style as classic chic but wore boring basic outfits. Love it!
October 12, 2012 2:47 pm
I want to meet all those who didn’t vote bombshell!!!…lol
October 12, 2012 2:48 pm
OK have you seen her closet and her house???? #sick
October 12, 2012 2:50 pm
first bombshell in weeks tbh
October 12, 2012 2:50 pm
BOMBSHELL!!!! and her closet is ridiculous!!! her style is a little grown for me but her body is tight.
October 12, 2012 2:53 pm
Overall I like her style, my least favorite look would have to be the first one. Oh yeah and her body is AMAZING!!!
October 12, 2012 2:56 pm
Definite bombshell! very classy and sophisticated with a sick body. I love the fact she has such a great body and doesn’t feel the need to be naked. Kuddos Nikki.
October 12, 2012 3:02 pm
I believe I saw an article on her a few months ago in Harpers Bazaar about skincare and she’s in her late 30′s and killing it. She’s also almost 6 feet tall and use to model. Definitely a bombshell with classy taste. Werk it ma.
October 12, 2012 3:04 pm
She looks wonderful. Best looking bombshell I’ve seen in weeks. About time.
October 12, 2012 3:10 pm
Love the denim/yellow/leopard look. May steal that. Great looks overall
October 12, 2012 3:11 pm
Very NICE!!! and she make her own DIY
October 12, 2012 3:12 pm
Cuteness!! See, this just shows you that it doesn’t take much to put a little uff in your style…very simple pieces, nice shoe choices…overall stylist woman!
October 12, 2012 3:21 pm
Beautiful !!!! She has some really great pieces
October 12, 2012 3:22 pm
I don’t comment too often on this site (I’m a fan, just more of a lurker), but I had to come out of the woodwork for this lady! Not only is she beautiful, but her blog is off the chain! I love seeing a black woman’s perspective when it comes to home decor. On top of that, I love her style! Ok, I’m done (Goes back in to lurk mode).
October 12, 2012 3:31 pm
She has one of those classic styles that just sticks to memory, this an excellent pick Claire.
October 12, 2012 3:32 pm
tight work my nigga
October 12, 2012 3:33 pm
omg … she did copy the outfit -_- .. oh well. it still looks good lol
she’s definitely a bombshell!
October 12, 2012 3:39 pm
I think we all pull inspiration from fashionable people we see online. That’s the whole purpose people. So copy? really? anywho I think she has great style. My co-worker just reminded me that women are HATERS lol
October 12, 2012 3:44 pm
Fabulous!!! I have no other words, just fabulous!
October 12, 2012 3:46 pm
I actually started clapping when I took a look at her pics! Fabulous!!!
October 12, 2012 3:47 pm
She does it all! Love, love, love her blog and her ability to recreate pieces!
October 12, 2012 3:53 pm
Such classic and chic pieces. True fashion for a professional, career woman. Two Thumbs up!!!
October 12, 2012 3:59 pm
Omg, I’m such a fan! She definitely can be a candidate for “Bombshell of the Year”! YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!
October 12, 2012 3:59 pm
Nikki is keeping it classy. Love her style!
October 12, 2012 4:09 pm
Yup!…well done!!!!
October 12, 2012 4:15 pm
A bombshell. I love.
But her shoe game is out of our league ? Some,one said …. I saw all these styles at ZARA, so calmly take a seat.
October 12, 2012 4:17 pm
I had to come back after reading her blog to add that she is now my girl crush AND I want to be her when I grow up (nevermind that I’m probably older than her).
October 12, 2012 4:51 pm
@MsNomer I feel the same way! I’d marry her if she wasnt already married ;) I was not impressed with the outfit choices here (she has others that i prefer better) but her blog is the bomb.com! Anddd i want her to cook for me! ha!
October 12, 2012 5:03 pm
Seriously…what IS this!?! Wait…I think I heard about women like her. They’re um…FASHION BOMBSHELLS!!! It has seriuosly been a long time, lol.
October 12, 2012 5:25 pm
Beautiful….10! And I appreciate no wigs and weaves.
October 12, 2012 5:42 pm
Now this is a fashion bombshell. Very chic
October 12, 2012 5:48 pm
Finally! Thanks, Claire and staff :)
October 12, 2012 6:09 pm
Love her style; she sews too.
October 12, 2012 6:14 pm
Are these comments fakes? LOL> She’s dope but not that dope. A bit exaggeration.
October 12, 2012 6:28 pm
This is some grown style and I love it!!!
October 12, 2012 6:30 pm
I meant some grown woman handling my business style!!!!
October 12, 2012 6:36 pm
After checking her blog, it is confirmed…j’adore!
This is grown woman style. Sure, there is no ‘masterpiece’ articles of close but the execution is superb. There are styles that are inspiration, unique, eclectic, etc which are all fashion bomb worthy, but her style works for me because not only is it concurrent with my personal style, it has a level of sophistication and grace.
Well done Claire!
October 12, 2012 6:36 pm
*clothes
Sorry
October 12, 2012 7:03 pm
Claire you redeemed yourself today. Lately, the bombshells have been really boring. Love her style. Nothing trashy and revealing. Sometimes, simplicity goes with elegance and style. She nailed all three.
October 12, 2012 8:03 pm
Very nice.
October 12, 2012 8:04 pm
LET THE CHURCH SAY AMEN…..BOMBSHELL…POOOF!!!!!!! AND HER BODY IS SIIIIIIICK.
October 12, 2012 8:27 pm
Now this is a real BOMBSHELL! Did you huys check out her blog? She’s pretty darn amazing!
October 12, 2012 8:50 pm

October 12, 2012 9:02 pm
Darling Nikki you got hella style girl!
October 12, 2012 9:14 pm
She has some nice looks. Definitely a bombshell. I love that paisley skirt.
October 12, 2012 9:45 pm
Well done!! Fashion bombshell for sure!!!
October 12, 2012 10:23 pm

October 12, 2012 10:43 pm
Hands down, she is the truth!!!!!!
October 12, 2012 11:01 pm
She’s polished and beautiful. I love it all.
October 13, 2012 10:40 am
Bombshell definitely…LOVE her style!!
October 13, 2012 11:01 am
I have been following Nikki’s blog for a while now; she is indeed a fashion inspiration! She’s very stylish which means she wears clothes you have probably seen (high-end designer pieces and pieces from regular stores) but gives it her own twist. She wears a trend but still puts her own signature on it. AND I love that she has our body type!!!
October 13, 2012 11:13 am
She is beautiful from head to toe. I love her organized closets. Im sure they lend a hand to her polished looks. Bombshell!
October 13, 2012 11:43 am
Great Style!
Proof that you don’t need 30inches of Brazilian running down your back, a outfit made entirely of spandex, or 6in stripper shoes to SHUT IT DOWN!
Beautiful.
October 13, 2012 1:28 pm
Love! #thatisall
October 13, 2012 2:21 pm
Classic. Effortless chic.
October 13, 2012 5:16 pm
Finally! Loves it! I agree with whoever said that her waist is snatched! You betta do it DC!!!!!!
October 13, 2012 8:33 pm
YASSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 13, 2012 8:42 pm
sexy, sophistocated, classic! I love it, Its obvious she has a keen eye for great pieces and knows how to mix it up. Oh yes she’s a bombshell!
October 13, 2012 11:46 pm
Definately a bombshell!! i love everything about her and her style
October 14, 2012 1:42 am
Just wow, i love everything and i want to be any insect in her closet, but when she’s out transform into myself and just try her stuff on
October 14, 2012 12:13 pm
