Happy Monday!
As you read this, I’m flying out West for a quick trip to LA! To keep with the California theme, I thought I’d feature Valerie from San Francisco as today’s Bombshell:

The Nigerian native says, “I originally fell in love with fashion after being immersed in the modeling industry once I finished playing basketball in college. I realized that I needed to have a clear understanding of my own personal style and comprehend what influences today’s well-known and successful designers.”

“…I began reading more fashion magazines and blogs, both domestically and internationally. I’m largely influenced by the NY fashion scene and European culture.”

“…My personal style for the fall/winter is a more of a grunge, rocker chic look. I love mixing dark and neutral tones and pairing it with a vampy lip color. Fashion is an art that I have grown to love and may eventually venture from modeling into more of a designer role.“

“…I currently have a blog, www.entertainmentchic.blogspot.com, which not only delves into my love for fashion/sports, but also includes discussing trending topics, such as dating. With my goal to travel/move to Australia this year, I plan to share more of my thoughts on international fashion and how they are influenced by the US.”

Sounds interesting! I’ll check it out. I would have loved to see just a few more pix, but from what you submitted, you’re quite fly.
