Hey Bombshells!
So I just landed in Paris! I have a full day of shows, and am on the run, but first: take a look at today’s Bombshell, Mbu from South Africa:
She was submitted by blogger and admirer Zona, who wrote, “Please find attached pics of Mbu of Hombakazi Vintage Cabin, a Port Elizabeth, South African pop up store.”
“She describes her style as a nostalgic fashion movement which aims at reviving the spirit of past fashion trends…”
“… whilst adding a modern flavour.”
“She posts OOTD photos daily on IG and FB making looking fabulous 7 days a week look easy.”
” I’m also inspired by the fact that she quit her 9-5 to start something she’s passionate about and is actually making it work.”
Zona actually doesn’t know Mbu personally, but we got Mbu’s consent to publish her pix!
Mbu added, “I’m too frekken excited wow thank you soo soo much. Screams soooooooo louddddd…”
Lol…keep it cute, boo! At any rate, 10’s all around! Your looks are polished and somewhat conservative, yet sassy and undeniably fly. Work!
Be sure to follow Mbu’s store Hombakazi’s Vintage Cabin on Facebook here. Also, Mbu or Zona, please write in with Mbu’s Instagram page. I want to follow!
At any rate, what do you think?

I’m new to the blog and doubt with this post being so old that my comment will be read but nevertheless; I’ve been combing the blog for the “bombshell of the day” and feel like, other than “Diamond Janae” I have FINALLY found one. This is fashion! You can recreate these looks on a budget and still look glam and luxe!
Hi! I’ve been following your weblog for some time now and finally got the bravery to go ahead and give you a shout out from New Caney Texas! Just wanted to tell you keep up the good job!
I’m not sure exactly why but this blog is loading incredibly slow for me. Is anyone else having this problem or is it a problem on my end? I’ll check back later on and see if the problem still exists.
