So my vacation is officially ON and I’m ready to catch up with my peeps! Mail Bombs will be short but sweet:)
First, Nikki says, “Rihanna’s shoes in this pic are the BUSINESS!”
“Can you please tell me who designed them?”
According to Natasha of the YBF, Rih Rih is rocking a pair of Azzedine Alaia $1,943 Python Bell sandals:
If you need Rihanna’s total look for less, check out my post about her on AOL Black Voices!
Next, Silvia says, “Have you seen Mary J. Blige in this new AT&T commercial?”
“She has a gorgeous grey shawl at the end which converts to a hood. Do you have any idea who the designer is, or if anyone else is making something similar?”
What a cute commercial! Not sure of who the exact designer is, but you can get Mary’s look with this $168 Juicy Couture Oversized Wrap Cardigan:
The ribbed shawl collar can be pulled up into a hood for a similar MJB steeze.
Leah says, “I’m feeling this jumper Fergie is wearing in this pic!”
“…The bold prints & colors make it pop and it’s different from a lot of jumpers I’ve seen. Who makes it?”
Fergie is rocking a romper by Fashion Bomb friend, Boxing Kitten:
Pieces range in price from $75-$275. Visit www.boxingkitten.com for more info (and read this vintage FB post about the brand here).
Now for a few wardrobe queries!
Leona says, “My BFF is getting married in September and all of us bridesmaids need to wear black dresses. I hadn’t found one I love… until I peeped Emma Watson’s Harry Potter London Premiere dress! “
“..Its a vintage Ozzie Clark dress that is bad to the bone… and way out of my price league!! Could you help me find a similar style in a basic black? The wedding pics will thank you!!”
Adriana found this option for your big day:
Ashley says, “Help! I bought these shorts for my Birthday party…”
“…Please help me assemble some party looks that work well with the shorts!”
Vuitton says, “I pieced together a look for you that will make those shorts pop–hope you like it!”
Lastly, Cindy says, “I am a 20 year old Nursing student (only one more year left aoowwwwwwwwww!). I consider myself a rather fashionable sort, but as a college student, I have to find ways to be fabulous on a budget. Most of the time I can work it out, but one particular item has managed to elude me : open toe booties. I looooove these kind of shoes, but I can’t seem to find any that are in my budget, ($50 bucks and below- – especially below!) Could you please use your sleuthing skills to help me out?”
Hey Cindy! We, too, had a bit of trouble finding cute open toes booties under $50! We found plenty of options under $100…if you’re willing to spend about $5-$30 more, you can get the look:
I’m off to max and relax. Have amazing weekends, we’ll see you on Monday.
Smootches!
