Ready for today’s Bombshell? Take a look at Abiola from Seattle:
The loquacious Nigerian American fashion journalist, stylist, and lifestyle blogger, was first featured in 2010. Take a look at her new digs:
She writes, “Over the past 2 years my style has drastically refined itself as I’ve matured and become more aware of who I am and what I like.”
” I can tell you I’m somewhat of a modernist, with a touch of ’90s sport chic minimalism mixed with classic bohemian prints and styles.”
“… I’m a vintage gal true and through. Some of my favorite vintage designers include the greats like Paul Smith, Courreges, Thea Porter, Zandra Rhodes, and Schiaperelli, although I do enjoy the no-name/label thrift steals!”
“…It’s nice to utilize both high and low end pieces to create a cohesive signature look, and the blog shares just how to do that with styling tips for vintage pieces, seasonal color schemes, and identifying ones shape.”
“… But there’s no better styling tip than knowing who you are and owning it!”
” Unfortunately as a young lady living in this generation, I know it’s becoming harder and harder to know who you are and embody that confidently; the blog is dedicated to tackling those base level issues with the hope that if we create a safe space where our strife’s are openly discussed and shared, we’ll gain a better understanding of them and be closer to becoming the phenomenal women we were made to be!”
Ok! Love what you’ve got going, and how you add a twist to classic looks with fun pumps and unexpected lengths.

I swear those pants she has on with the moto jacket are the EXACT ones Celie made at the end of A Color Purple when she got her pants boutique.

Her style is pretty basic to me,there were a few hits and misses. I do appreciate how she totally owns her look :-)
Not the Color Purple pants comment. #flatline
I think I’m in love. Her style is simple with a few twists, but nothing over the top. I like how she owns it. And she’s a hottie.
Amazing
