  10. Not my style but if she feels good and has the confidence to carry off the outfits more power to her.

  13. She is bold, unafraid, daring and not afraid to be creative and eye catching that is for sure. Those looks are strong and will cause a stir. Not my cup of tea but props to you. However, I LOVE those pink bow gloves

  15. It’s easy to get caught up in putting all of your eye catching items together. I like where she’s going but it’s like supermarket sweet. She’s trying to put all the good items in the basket before time runs out. Pick one fun item and run with it.

  16. i like her. she’s creative with what she has…the last look i felt could have been a winner is she didnt do soo much! Overall stay positive. And keep having fun with your looks…NO ONE ELSE’S OPINION REALLY MATTERS

  22. She is creating and thats what i love about fashion. U might not like always like the vision but i give anyone props that has a vision and brings it to life. She seems happy and expressive and i can appreciate it. I think her last outfit would be great for a music video.

  23. “… I have fun dressing up and I’m not scared to try different looks…”

    And thats what matters. Them pink bow gloves giving me fever, honey!

  25. Just wanna say girly does her thing, and she looks foxy and fly in every outfit!!! Looking the same is a thing of the past, being different makes a satement! Constance you look lovely and keep doing what you do, CAUSE I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

  30. Well….I applaud her for taking risks and having confidence to wear some of these outfits. I like the black and gold ensemble minus the tights and shoes. Everything else…Not so much! That last outfit is TOO MUCH….very stripperish. However that sequined skirt number and the black and gold number is cute.

  31. there is too much going on here, photo number 1 with the white jacket is the only look id prolly go for, but other than that if she feels good in it then thats all that matters, have a great day everyone!

  32. I think ur a very creative young lady. It’s nice to see a young woman not showing her a$$ just to look sexy. Your outfits are very BOLD but at the same time they are Fierce….. Most of ur negative comments come from people who have low self esteem and they probably wouldn’t look right in it anyways.. DO THE DAMN THANG BABE…. Beyonce lady gaga RHianna might be calling you sooon >>sound like MONEY TO ME

  33. Hmmm, creative is right. I like a lot of her pieces individually ie, the pink bow gloves, the white/black sequined leggings, the gold shimmer stockings, but come on! You don’t have to pull out all the fun stuff at once. TONE IT DOWN. There will be another party next week.

  34. Her style is definitely BOLD and over the top. Honestly, I like everything, she just needs to “polish” up the looks. It’s just a tad bit sloppy. Thumbs up mama!!!!

  35. I like some of the accessories, especially the big hair bow. Keep doing you but maybe a little less you. lol, j/k

  37. In the words of Coco Chanel…” take the last thing off you put on…” well homegirl needs to do that 5x. Waaayyy too much going here where it’s to the point of looking costumey. I love her boldness but she really needs to work on her editing eye. I must say though, I really do respect her confidence.

  38. Oh I see now, I get it!?!??! Yal rather go to the club looking like the background chick instead of>>>>> DAMN WHO IS THAT SHE MUST BE SOMEBODY<<<<< lol yal rather be the girl that get Whispered about "oh no she didn't come up in here with that ForEver21 outfit on" lol yal so funny… Oh and Pic2 & that last pic are straight VIDEO GIRL outfitz , and the 1 with the Blue BOW is my fav i would wear that…. To yal haters Funeral lol

  39. I like some of the looks, esp the one with the floral top! I’m sure wherever she goes the outfit will be approiate in each setting…I hope! Do you mama!!! :o)

  40. I absolutly love her style. You can tell its uniquely hers and she works it very well. The fact that she can pull this together with little money can make self proclaimed fashionistas everywhere envy her. I think she is one of the best featured on the site and nothing needs to be towned down. A lot of women wished they had the confidence to be bold and actually pull this off but that is a quality many do not posess. Bravo! Lol

  41. Constance..IDK you but I admire your daring side…reminds me of me in my early 20’s…Go for it!! A lot of people wish they had your confidence, trust!!

  46. Ok, me I love it…I do….well the floral, sequin skirt and last pic are my FAVS and my top picks…
    Its over the top….!!! definitely however if she went to the club she would get heads to turn in those outfits….and not necessarily negative.
    when you go out…at least when i used to I wanted to be BADD….like something nobody else would have on…an outfit that would make ppl look…
    That last look…whoo…definite video or club….and i mean in those 2 settings its more than appropriate..

    she’s not showing her cheeks….she’s confident..I love it!

  47. The clothes are a bit much for everyday wear, BUT I honestly think she would be really good at designing stage outfits. Outfits on stage need to really pop and be eye-catching from far distances.

  49. she looks ri-dic-u-lous ,,..she looks like she’s going to a halloween party come on people stop it with the,, oh i love her confidence.. this is not about who has confidence,, it;s about fashion which she has none of ,,@ luv u hard no one is hating we just dont like it ,,do we have to ,,,NO WE DONT ,,Constance if no one wants to tell you ,,I will ,,its not really looking to nice ..AT ALL..TO MUCH GOING ON ,,TO MUCH ..TO MUCH..

  51. i can appreciate her creativity and resourcefullness for sewing and putting her outfits together, but she looks as though she has all her accessories on at the same time in practically every photo. she should tone it down. not a fan.

  52. i can appreciate her creativity and resourcefullness for sewing and putting her outfits together, but she looks as though she has all her accessories on at the same time in practically every photo. not a fan. she should tone it down.

  54. people… PLEASE stop using Lady Gaga as your fashion reference… smh. there’s just way too much going on here, she looks like a caricature rather than someone in love with fashion. i see where she’s trying to go but she needs to refine it and tone some of it (most of it)down…

  60. TOO MUCH!
    The stand out details are obstructed by all the flashy BS!
    I’ll pass on this one!

  61. I applaud your boldness, do it girl! I def like the last outfit sparkles and spikes, hot! But there def needs to be some editing, ask a friend to take a pic before going out, invest in a polaroid, a gay male friend..something! Check out 2bd.com these checks def know how to do metal, spikes, sparkles and glam. That is all..

  64. Very (very) shiny (shielding my eyes), but that sequin skirt is cute! It would’ve stood out more with a short necklace and without the bamboo earrings. The one-shoulder dress is cute as well, but its too over the top with the bracelets, chain, and big earrings. And the 6th pic with the floral top is a cute look. Everything else is kinda Gaga/Beyonce loud. Either way, she’s bold and adventurous so go ‘head witcha confident self girl!

  65. Hmm…I love the accessories. The overall style isn’t really my thing but she seems to be having fun and kudos to her for having the confidence to rock/make her own looks.

  66. I love to see when beautiful young women are not afraid “Do Them”. There are enough “look-a-likes” running the streets. Constance is the perfect example of someone who loves themself and has the confidence to show it. I absolutly love the colors and creativity! And the fact that you make a lot of your outfits is equally impressive. Shine On Constance!!

  67. I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT HER!!!! It takes big balls to pull off any of these looks and she’s obviously got huge balls. Keep of the good work, Constance. Your style is definitely all your own.

    On another note, I think that it’s incredibly sad that people can’t uplift one another. I’ve read each comment and some of the things I’ve read are just unnecessary. Tearing one down to build yourself up is simply PATHETIC!!! Some of you claiming to have a college education, but can’t spell (computers now have spell check … UTILIZE IT!!!). Not trying to tear any of you down, just stating facts while you state your opinion! Props to everyone that said it’s not their cup of tea, but still gave props. To the haters, work on yourself and maybe, just maybe, you’ll learn to love yourself, thusly allowing you to love others.

  70. Hey it’s meeee Constance! Ms Fashion BombShell of the day lol! Thanks for “All” the comments. I respect everyone’s opionion bad or good. Claire thanks again for picking me :) I love creating crazy different looks, I have fun doing it. And I’m so in love, with fashion that is. I forgot to mention I have a passion for writing. I was recently offered a publishing deal with nhousepublishing. I wrote a novel called Covah Gurls. It will be coming out soon. I’m super excited about that. We have some of the best authors so go check us out at nhousepublishing.com I’m such a down to earth person I love being happy love meeting happy people. If your the same follow me on Twitter @Marilyn_cream or catch me on Face Book,Constance Alexander This was such a DOPE experience.

  74. I love this girl she’s beautiful in everyway….. IF PPL REALLY KNEW HER THEY WOULD TAKE THEIR SHITTY COMMENTS DOWN….. She’s a beautiful person inside and out and if she wants 2 bedazzle her fuckin pajamas or bunny slippaz she can cuz she’s A BO$$!!!!!!!! I ain lyin!!!!!!!! # realshizzz

  76. I dont know if this can really be called fashion. Looks like she’s wearing COSTUMES not outfits.

  78. I have to say I love her 80s meets today style! Mixing bold patterns, round the way girl earrings with todays long lasting trends like the peep toes, tights and some beyonce in the mix?! Love it hands down.

  79. Thanks guys and gals for all the comments! This was such a dope experience.. Constance aka Ms. Fashion Bomb Shell…..

  80. like the black & gold look minus the tights. like the sequin skirt look & I would like the look @ the bottom if it weren’t so busy from the waist down. i want to say that i do love the way she is doing her. personally, i agree that some of the looks are over to top. but it seems like that may be what constance is going for. do you, girl!

    on a side note, some of these comments really are uneccessary. it’s possible to say “i don’t like it” without being disrespectful.

    but also, i love it how everyone who disagrees w/a person’s sense of style somehow becomes reduced to a “hater” or a person w/”low self esteem” in these comments. talk about ad hominem. can we please retire the word “hater” in 2011? if i don’t like something, i don’t like it.

  82. I absolutely love it! Too much for alot of others,but she knows how to work it and make it look sexy while doing. Not liking something and hating is 2 diff things. I’m sure that this is not her first time gettin negative remarks, so brushing the haters off is nothing for this DIVA! WORK IT!

  83. Some of the looks are over-accessorized in my opinion: I would remove/change one thing about each outfit. BUT they are really fun outfits to go out and have a good time in. She will definately appear like the life of the party at any event she attends.

    I love the idea of the epaulets. I’m a huge fan of military inspired style. They are too much for me (the shoulder pad is an awkward shape, the spikes are too big) but I think she pulls it off.

    Constance’s casual outfits are too cute and chic. I love her in the floral prints.

    And I’m sorry, but if Nicki Minaj wore some of this stuff, some people would LOVE it.

  85. I ABSOLUTE LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU!!!!!! NOT TOO MANY WOMEN COULD PULL OFF THE OUTFITS THAT YOU WEAR!!! THE WAY YOU MIX UP DIIFERENT PATTERNS BUT YET STILL PULL THE WHOLE LOOK TOGETHER……AWESOME!!!!! CONTINUE DOING WHAT YOU DO AND BE FLAWLESS!!!!

    AS FOR THE HATERS, THE REASON YOU DONT GET IT IS BECAUSE YOUR NOT THE ONE WITH ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO ATTEMP TO EVEN TRY TO PULL THESE LOOKS OFF!! WHEN YOU TRY YOU ALWAYS FAIL!!! SO INSTEAD OF TRYING TO TEAR SOMEONE ELSE DOWN TO YOUR LEVEL, JUST GIVE PROPS WHEN PROPS ARE DO!!!!! THIS GIRL IS OBVISIOUS BORN TO STAND OUT. INSTEAD OF HATIN, ASK HER HOW CAN YOU GET SOME OF HER SHINE. THEN MAYBE YOUR HUSBANDS AND BABY’S FATHERS WOULD TAKE A SECOND LOOK YOU WAY!!!!

    KEEP UP THE FABULOUS WORK!! LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU OPEN A STORE!! I’LL ROCK THIS ISH WITH CHA!!!! ;^D

  86. The feature is called “Fashion Bombshell” not “Confident Bombshell” or “Bold Bombshell.” You are supposed to showcase your FASHION sense. She has none in my opinion. No one is hating and her personality does not matter because we probably will never meet her. You all know that if you saw her walking down the street, you would give her the ULTIMATE side eye. It is cool to be different, I am all for it, but when different becomes costumey thats a problem. You can be different and have a polished look. You guys are trying to say her confidence and boldness determines fashion, but really be honest with yourselves. Lady Gaga is a nut and you guys compare her to that weirdo…thats interesting

  90. I would like you to help me Constance find some of those cool and fun item im also a cleveland native so i will be looking you up…. Thanx for putting Cleveland style back on the map!

  91. She has a lot of confidence and I admire that. While I wouldn’t wear any of the outfits displayed, I could see them being costumes for a recording artist, especially the last outfit and the outfit with the blue shoes.

  93. LOVE LOVE LOVE! She’s bold and not afraid to go the distance, which is exactly what fashion needs. Those Cruella De Ville leggings? Fierce! I love seeing women that are confident and know how to have fun with fashion.

  94. Wow. I think she could benefit from a little fashion editing. There’s too much going on at once. Of course I’m echoing earlier sentiments, but I wanted to share my 2 cents as well.

  96. I think that you over accessorized a bit on some…… and always remember with fashion less is always best ……….

  97. She dont have to tone nothing down….maybe y’all need to turn it up and stop being fashion snobs…everyone is an expert these days!

  98. I like some of the outfits, but overall it is her style and if you feel good thats all that matters. Like someone previously stated if Niki Minaj or another celebrity wore some of the outfits it would be accepted.
    Also I bet you half of the rude people dont even have the confidence to submit their pictures. It so easy to judge when behind a computer screen.

  99. Hey Claire,

    I see you guys have an article about negativity & natural hair maybe the FB can do an article about negativity and personal fashion choices….confidence is the number one Necessity ..period!

  100. Errrrm.. Hmmm she looks like shes playing dress up.. Loooooooooool O please.. No no no no no why do chics do this to themselves for?.. She put ALOT of time and effort into each and every look.. SMH.. NOT a good look at all..

  103. I actually love her outfits, obviously they are not for everyday wear people c’mon! But U def agree with someone who said you would be dope as a costume designer. Keep doing your thing girl, if you put on the same exact outfits and they had an Alexander McQueen label all these people would be singing a different tune! I think your style is creative bold and fresh to death!

  104. @lish- i think people know what they sign up for when they submit their pictures to fashion bomb. they are asking for people’s opinions on their style. not to mention that at the end of every post it LITERALLY asks people what they think about the person’s personal style. so what do you want? this is the commentary section and people are free to give whatever opinion they like. sorry you don’t like them, oh well.

    @ people who have issues with others who don’t agree with them- i just have to say if i saw anybody dressing like this (i don’t even like nicki minaj btw) or a designer look that was stylized in this fashion i would STILL think they were overaccesorized outfits. there is such a thing as editing your look so that it’s not overwhelming and the different elements don’t clash with each other.

  105. Esme why are you bothering to respond…..what I said was my opinion so you dont like it?? I dont care…esp from someone who’s name I see frequently and you hardly ever have anything positive to say…when are you going to submit your pics???…bt there is a difference between disliking and being rude! All im saying is that people here on the fashion bomb have a lack of respect for an individual’s fashion choices…Fashion has no rules…Fashion is what you feel. So if someone wants to pile on the accessories are they less fashionable then anyone else?? No they arent!

  107. I admire and applaud her confidence, her style is very bold and daring and different. I like alot of the accessories if i choose to wear them i would wear it and let it be the stand out accessory rather piling them all together :) its too much going on for me but i like it on you because to each is own.

  109. @lish-please. maybe i felt like responding because your comments BARELY said anything about the fashion bomb in the first place and because you stated that ppl who said that she needed to tone it down, of which i was one, were fashion snobs and just being negative. so what was the point of that? to prove you can’t stay on topic? to prove that you can be and ARE more negative then the ppl you’re talking about? lmao, mission accomplished!

    and i compliment the fashionbomb’s style that i like pretty often. not my problem if YOU didn’t see them as much as you’re checking so hard for my commentary. and i don’t have to do anything, including put my pics, name, and personal info on a public website to appease YOU. DON’T PLAY YOURSELF. and no i don’t i don’t think overaccessorizing is a good look. yes, everyone has their own style, but if you submit your pics to a public forum and asking people what they think of your style: GEE, don’t be shocked if some ppl don’t like it.

  112. I think she has some banging accessories just not worn right! I really can’t stand when people say things about confidence and blah blah blah. That’s nice and everything and it is needed but just because you have confidence doesn’t mean your style looks good. Yes, she has a style all her own but does it mean it looks good? No. It is just waaaay too much going on. It’s all over the place. She has good pieces but it needs to be toned down. Can you even take some one who dresses like this seriously? I can’t. Every style isn’t good. Fashion=tough love. I mean this with the most respect.

  113. I love her unique style!.. Being that I myself am an accessory junky I love the chains, rings and gloves! *2 thumbs up*

  114. I have to say people talk down because THEY dont understand you constance, your personality rocks and i love ur fashion you look amazing half the people hating because they wish they could pull off these HOT ass outfits lol keep doing u poo IM LOVING EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU… AND UR STYLE….

  115. as much as i love some of those individual pieces, jumbling them together just makes your outfit scream at me.. In my opinion, more of a photo shoot style than street style… But hey, thats just me. She should wear whatever the hell she wants.

  116. LOL Claire! Im a day late (well a few days late) and a dollar short for this one. I don’t know how I missed this one.

  118. Constance as you read one’s idea of fashion differs from person to another like night & day… personally viewing your pics took me back to my good ole college days, not to say our styles are similar but I love to indulge in a few choice statement pieces at times… So continue to evolve your style to whatever you see fit

    Now I just have to tell the rest of you ladies that I was thoroughly entertained by all of your comments, this sure beat watching re-runs of Sex in the City & The Nanny all night lol!!! Peace & blessings to all!!!

  121. How could I have MISSED this girl (lol)? No, really. I like her boldness, I like her smile and confidence in wearing what she likes and knows how to make. In the words of Lil’ Mama: I respect that. But, if every now and then shoe would pair her (AWESOME! by the way) two-toned leggings with say red or some other off-standing colour, so it would pop more, she would have been out of this world. But, I guess ya’ll think that even now (that’s me talking without having read past comment 5, since they all had less than say 10 words).

    Anyway,

    YOU GO GIRL!
