West Coast reader Kadejah from LA submitted her pix for Fashion Bombshell of the Day:
She says, “My style is staying true to what I like, all the while [distinguishing myself from] everyone else in the world.”
” Sometimes it can be a very growing process to discover who you are as a college student.”
” This generation is so quick [to validate] themselves by picking a title/status, while they are on the journey of self-discovery. But I question “how can you know who you are, while you’re on the road of discovery?“”
“Therefore, I tend to just be true to myself in the moments, and follow my heart with what I want to wear and what feels good.”
” I’m not typical and I’m absolutely okay with that.”
” I also like to think: you should only do what makes you feel good.”
” I also believe that you shouldn’t count on others to make you happy.”
“… It begins and ends with you, with that being said I may wear a furry coat so everyone can look at me, and become amused. That alone will pick my mood up, if I’m feeling down.”
“Life is too short to not do things that are adding to you.”
Um, is that a snake around your neck? Talk about a bold accessory! See more www.kadesmode.com.

I was scrolling down, with an open mind.. the BAM! that bow tie. it caused me to just stop….YAY for individuality.. a little all over the place for me. But yes very pretty girl, which is why you can wear all this
“stuff” and get away with it :)
January 3, 2013 12:27 pm

January 3, 2013 12:34 pm
I like the glasses that she has on in the mario picture.
January 3, 2013 12:38 pm

January 3, 2013 12:41 pm

Bombshell. Although I’d dump the bowtie. Beautiful girl.
January 3, 2013 12:58 pm
You are so beautiful!! Some of the outfits and hits and misses but overall I LOVE that fact that you are adventurous! I’m loving the look with the leather jacket and orange skirt! Perfect mix of edge and sexy :)
January 3, 2013 12:59 pm
She’s a pretty lady but I only like a couple of her looks. on another note, I can’t wait to visit her home state (Louisiana) in the spring! second trip to the US :)
January 3, 2013 1:01 pm
Hits and misses for me. She’s a college student, she has plenty of time to find her personal style.
January 3, 2013 1:03 pm
Well, atleast you’re doing you. I like that picture with the maxi skirt (high split), you totes look like Angela Simmons.
January 3, 2013 1:05 pm
Electic. That’s it Mama.

Her attitude is what is most appealing to her imo and she’s an attractive woman – Her style is her style so kudos for that
January 3, 2013 1:31 pm
That bowtie!! *faints* But overall cute style, you definitely own it :-)
January 3, 2013 1:47 pm
Wow I like her style very fun
January 3, 2013 1:55 pm
she is a cutie pie! i love how she describes her style :-)
January 3, 2013 1:56 pm
I see potential, but some of the looks just threw my off, and I didn’t fidn her style cohesive ebough
January 3, 2013 2:03 pm
I liked pictures 1, 2, 3, 6 and 9.
January 3, 2013 2:08 pm
i like it. lots of pix and cute pieces
January 3, 2013 2:13 pm
Adorbs!
January 3, 2013 2:27 pm
She’s a cute girl, just very trendy.
January 3, 2013 2:37 pm
Hits and misses…the pink and blue outfit just wasn’t my thing. I love her spirit though
January 3, 2013 2:44 pm
Well she certainly stands out. I’m really getting the vibe….that this is what that generation is all about. Memba the Madonna Era where folks dressed for shock value wearing bras and hardware etc. This generation is all about what can I put on that will turn heads…..the bow tie is a prime example. She’s is very comfortable with her look and it shows so do you love that really. I’m just saying these kids tend to dress for each other rather than themselves nowadays and there is nothing unique or individual about that.
January 3, 2013 3:06 pm
Hit and miss for me also pieces seem all over the place but I do respect the fact she stands out just make your pieces stand together more
January 3, 2013 3:07 pm
Khadejah I live you just because we have the same name different spelling
January 3, 2013 3:34 pm
Evening gown and fur bolero in the library? Winning. The ones who sport a style so different than my own intrigue me. Also, love the fact she know she cute :lol: Keep up with the updos to keep showing them FACE. Cute girl, okay style.
January 3, 2013 3:57 pm
Originality is key to fashion… if you dress like everyone else you are following a trend but showing originality starts trends… you got “it” whatever “it” is…
January 3, 2013 4:08 pm
Love her style!
January 3, 2013 4:12 pm
I loved the bowtie look. It was my favorite
January 3, 2013 4:13 pm
She gives me so much life! Her energy radiates in her fashion and that is what will take her wherever it is she wants to go in life, because she SHOWS you how she lives: freely.
Brava.
January 3, 2013 4:14 pm
Hits and Misses and her style isn’t my taste anyway. But, she is cute at least.
January 3, 2013 4:16 pm
My seven year old would love most of her looks-and trust me that is not shade. She has a unique style that only someone with a good spirit can pull off.

Congrat’s on your feature on The bomb, for those of you who don’t know this young lady not only is she an innovative Fashionista, but she is a hard working, go-getting Fashion Nerd (meaning she know the history)! Much love from the East… … …

HMMMMMM…………next!
January 3, 2013 6:09 pm
When it comes to style, she definetly marches to the beat of her OWN drum!!!
January 3, 2013 6:16 pm
Young & having fun! I love it.
January 3, 2013 6:58 pm
No lies pretty girl. Hate all her shoes but given that she is in college, I’ll let it slide. Brave effort.
January 3, 2013 7:11 pm
Doesn’t scream individuality to me… But she definitely had some hits.
Very pretty girl.
January 3, 2013 8:23 pm
Some of the most vocal people will never have the guts to submit their style as a fashion bombshell…
With that said, I love her look because it exudes an individual style that many have referred to in earlier comments above. The thing is (and pay very close attention naysayers lol) being on trend is EASY-it truly is because of the accessibility of the fashion industry through blogs like this, magazines, and direct behind the scenes access that spoon feed you trends from the runways and stylists within minutes. And in turn we applaud those who successfully imitate the styles of celebrities without the slightest thought of incorporating their own identity- simply copy cats. Instead of commenting on what you don’t see or don’t like, appreciate the uniqueness of a person’s style. Personally I love someone who has style that is multidimensional (a polished look one day, and grunge the next). If not, people who look like carbon copies are, for a lack of a more eloquent phrase, lame.
January 3, 2013 10:08 pm
she need to do one hundred crunches in one minute for seven days and tighten up that stomach area…slow down on the carbs a lil or something
January 3, 2013 10:38 pm
love her.. .oh yea, HU STAND UP. lol
January 4, 2013 12:24 am

January 4, 2013 11:42 am

January 8, 2013 1:30 pm

January 14, 2013 1:41 pm
Since when did the French adopt American size portions?!? That is (deliciously) roiucildus. PS: how does a first year associate get to Paris? Billables are tough after a breakfast like that.
