Well if you loved our 4th of July snapshot, you’re in for a treat! The elusive Bombshell in the star print skirt and striped top is none other than Shayla from LA:

The bicoastal blogger for All Things Slim writes, “My style is girly with edge.”


“I’m really into spikes, guns, skulls, black, chunky shoes -all of which are leftovers from a punk/goth phase in high school, but I can rock any look and make it mine.”

” I’m not afraid to try different things, and am known to love themes (think: Carrie Bradshaw and chola).”


” That said, I do try trends, but I am mindful of what won’t work on my body type (bottom heavy).”

“I actively try to incorporate color in to my looks, and I’m def digging neon right now. It looks amazing on brown skin.”

“What coast I’m on effects how I dress as well.”


“… I can dress up more in CA (no subway), while in NYC, I go for “dressed down dope” looks with versatility.”

“… I might be on set then have a party afterward, so I need to be able to wear it all day then add a blazer and heel to rock at night.”

“In short, my staples are blazers, black skinnies, a huge men’s watch, white racerbacks, and chunky heels.”


“Trends I’m digging: floral jeans, body chains, crosses, neon, high waist a-line skirts.”

You are gorgeous, have a sick style, and have legs to die for! I am totally inspired–and might even try out those pointy nails this weekend.

  5. Yaaaaaay! I like her style. I know I could never pull some of this off, but she does it well.

  6. dope. i was intrigued with almost every pic. love ombre hair. love how she rocked the Louboutin Lady Clou. don’t know how she gets anything done with those nails though. but dope nonetheless.

  7. Lol i agree she is like the poster chick for nastygal.com nonetheless she’s cute and fearless thumbs up!

  10. I agree with Gray…I couldn’t pull most of these looks off, but she pulls it off effortlessly. She has a lot of confidence!! Love it!

  11. Love her style. I like similar stuff skulls, crosses, studs etc. and she has given me inspiration on to rock them in new ways.

  13. Hot styling. Great pieces for sure. Fits right in with your edge. And I just found my weekend hairrrrr.. thx gurl!

    Denim on denim is my fav look. The skater skirt and the maxi skirt..I love it all. Plus your 4th of July shot.

    Claire try those nails! I fell in love with a rounder point but still bad ass!

  20. Pointy nails look disgusting. Love the pink skirt in the last pic. The rest looks like shes doing too much or trying too hard. NEXT!!

  23. cute girl….not everybody can rock the trends as much and as well as she does. Headed to the blog.

  27. Your hair is all types of right!!! You’re style is the bomb but I just don’t think the white blazer and crop top fits you. It’s like those clothes are wearing you.

  28. I just knew she was going to be featured as a Bombshell this week, haha! I was browsing her site yesterday after seeing the 4th of July post… nice looks and great skin!

  29. back from the blog. I love this girl. Super slim and trendy…reminds me of rhi rhi…I would love to have her as a little sis to borrow a few pieces now and then….this is a look that is done often and fails terribly. Its the magazine look that doesn’t work out on the street. Congrats for pulling it off.

    love the hair also.

  32. I would never wear any of her pieces but I had to vote bombshell because she wears them well. I admire her style.

  34. Love her looks. Her shoe game is on point. And I’m so loving that vintage Christian Dior saddle bag!!

  35. I like some of the pieces, however, I do think she appears streetwalkerish if walqking in the street, maybe its the vibe she’s giving…. but I still admire her individuality. :-/

  38. I’m digging her style! Love that she gave us close-ups of her nails and accessories. The denim shorts are hot! She has inspired me to dig up my old Dior bag.

  39. She looks like she walked out of the pages of a “what is trendy now” spread in a magazine. She is beautiful and knows how to dress to flatter her amazing figure. With that said, I would have liked to have seen more classier looks.

  41. i love her style and no shade intended but i LOL’d when she said she was “bottom heavy” If thats bottom heavy then chile my bottom is OBESE! but nonetheless, i like her style :)

  46. Lots of misses. I liked some individual pieces but that’s about it. Definitely no Carrie here.

  47. i voted bombshell – i don’t really like that neon outfit it’s just distracting and alot going on but otherwise, hot style!. I adore the ombre pink hairrrr. such a girly, punk rock look she has to her. and i wish everybody will through those JC Litas out, and all variations of it. i despise them! She reminds me of Vanessa Simmons in a way.

  48. I love her body and confidance but I hate the weave because it looks like a weave. I still don’t understand her personal style because everything looks like a photoshoot. Would she really walk out the house looking like a border line hooker. I did love a few of her looks, but some them looked like they belong in a magazine or a movie video, not out on the streets. She isn’t a bad dresser, but she may need to learn the art of more is sometimes less. Geat legs!

  49. She is definitely a bombshell. But I wouldn’t wear the majority of the outfits, too exposing. but still … daymn!

  50. Love her! My body type wouldn’t work on most of these looks but she is fierce.

  52. I vote bombshell. I like her looks a lot. She’s giving attitude, hair, makeup, fashion, and accessories. These look could easily not work on someone else but on her and her great body it looks GREAT!

  54. I feel like I was looking at a [poorly] styled photo shoot instead of a taste of her personal style. #deathtoallawfulwigsandweaves.

  56. Cant wait for those ugly Jeffrey Campbell shoes to disappear like the Ed Hardy clothes, Von Dutch clothes crazy memeber those

  58. Cute looks on her, she pulls them off with her body. Im curious on how tall she is! And wow that CD bag gave me flashbacks, i gave mine away to the salvation army!

  63. I don’t see “fashion” in any of these looks, I see trendy. Which is perefectly fine but it is not aesthetically pleasing to me. I agree with a previous commentor, most of these outfits look acceptable for a street walker. She looks too old to be wearing these trendy pieces. Just my opinion.

  64. Hot to death…She is too cute. I love her looks and I dont find them to be overly trendy. I find her to have a great sense of style and fashion. I love the bags, shoes, and those legs. Keep doin you!!!!

  66. I think her looks are so chic! I’m a totally fool over spikes and everything goth mixed with urban and high fashion so i totally get her! I wish she meet the Manikins from NJ we’d love to rock out with her!! #DOPE

  68. we have a similar style… a lot of the same pieces in fact. I’m also in LA. Lemme hit her up…

  69. I guess i’m the only one who doesn’t think she’s a bombshell. Anyway, she has nice legs!

  72. It’s very tumblr. But god knows i LOOOOVE tumblr! Way to go girl! I’m inspired!

  73. I wanted to add more, because I think I love this bombshell more then I may have showed. You really know how to dress, this is what I call ‘edgy’. We’ve got the same style and i wish i had deets on all the clothes you wear (mind if you have a copy of yourself walking around at the other side of the planet? lol). Seriously, your fashion is fiiiiine!

  75. Love her nails. I got similar ones after rihanna had them, no lie I love rih rih whatevs no shame. No go now with a 6 month old, but when he’s a little older I would rock them again. Second, I think she’s edgy and I like her use of color!

  78. Yes, Slim! Girls would hate you on the streets, “look at that hooker!”. You look great. Love your style.

  79. I like most of her looks!! (minus the rhinestones/stud looks and nails. also not feeling her bags).

    I like the denim outfit, pink skirt, and red lumberjack. Her physique is good and heer clothes complement her body.

  82. I love to give credit, when credit is due. But none of these fits are her originals. I’m 110% certain I can find these same put together outfits on nastgal, urban outfitters or zara’s, and I have. But to throw some jeffery campbell’s and some red bottoms. Top it off with some H&M jewlery and turn around and call it your own, is a slap in the face to the ones who exactly came up with this original out fit. I checked out her blog. She’s a bitter. Miss Shayla S. Drake be original.
