Happy Black Friday!
While I spent my Thanksgiving rubbing my food belly, many of our favorite Fashion Bomb celebs were celebrating in style, snapping family pictures and solo shots along the way.
See how a few of our favorite stars did it up, from Adrienne Bailon and Rihanna to the Kardashian/Jenner clan.
How was your Thanksgiving?
Now that our bellies are full from Thanksgiving, it’s time to shop! There are plenty of Black Friday deals going on at stores everywhere, and Sephora is no exception. The cosmetic department is having a sale for a variety of beauty products for $10 or less. This sale includes everything from cleansing facial scrubs to dazzling nail polishes. Here are 10 must haves to add to your beauty collection!
Who doesn’t love a good winged eye? This Makeup For Ever Waterproof Hero duo set is perfect to complete a simple look when going out!
Masks are always great when rejuvenating your skin especially after a week of wearing makeup. Grab this steal with three different Origins masks to help bounce you back!
The key to having a good beat face is blending. What better way to blend your makeup evenly than to use the Sephora Collection: Precision Makes Perfect mini airbrush sponge set. These sponges are sure to get every cut and crease to have a bomb beat!
You always need eye popping lashes stored away for a night out. The Sephora Collection: It Takes Two lash duo gives you just that at a great price. One is more subtle while the other has more volume; both sure to give the look you’re going for.
The Ole Henriksen Cleanse and Glow on the Go illuminates your skin like no other, leaving it refreshed and clean. We all love a good glow!
With the winter months vastly approaching, you need Tony Moly’s lip balm to keep your lips hydrated and moisturized. But, how cute is the case!
Soft skin is a must, and L’Occitane’s Cleansing and Softening Shower Oil with Almond Oil helps you achieve a supple touch. Apply to your skin after washing and it’ll have your body feeling as smooth as a baby’s bottom. Also serves as a great base for shaving!
With New Year’s right around the corner, do yourself a favor by getting the Formula X nail polish set to add the right touch of sparkle to your fingers. You won’t be disappointed!
As mentioned before, a good glow is a must! What better way to create that than the Tarte: Easy Glowing Deluxe Cheek Set to highlight all the right areas.
Want longlasting makeup that won’t wear off after a few hours? The Smashbox Facial Primer is essential. It also gives your foundation a nice touch when the flash hits for a photo!
Ladies I’m sure these products could definitely come in handy. Fellas, need some stocking stuffers? These products are the way to go!

Aussie beauty Jessica Mauboy was suited up at the 29th Annual ARIA Awards in a $1,950 Ellery Majesty Jacket and Wide Leg Trousers from the brand:
Her wool crepe jacket features cascading ruffles, bell sleeves, a single-button closure, wide peak lapels, a sharp V-neckline, and d contrast topstitching.
Check out the runway look.
A bit of tailoring for the trousers would’ve made this unconventional take on the suit perfect.
If you’re up for the splurge, get Jessica’s jacket here.

President Barack Obama participated in the National Turkey Pardoning Ceremony on the eve of Thanksgiving, and brought his daughters Malia and Sasha to help bless the occasion!
While most remarked at how grown and gorgeous they are, most had questions about Malia’s two tone coat!
Of course it comes as no surprise that Malia was outfitted in a J.Crew piece, specifically their $198 Long Colorblock Field Jacket:
It’s super cute, but sadly sold out.
Peruse J. Crew’s current coats at JCrew.com.
Sidenote: This family is so beautiful and inspiring!
See them in action below:
*In case you were wondering, Sasha was wearing a cream top and skirt from American Apparel. Malia’s striped turtleneck is also from American Apparel!
As Thanksgiving draws nigh, I wanted to give a heartfelt THANKS to Fashion Bomb Daily readers for supporting this millennial, multicultural online style magazine!
It seems like we’ve been dealing with web issues for over a YEAR. It’s somewhat ironic (?) that when you try to create a better experience for readers, you sometimes go backwards–there is truth to the saying that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!
At any rate, I feel like the accessibility, page load, and other issues are going to be corrected SOON. The hope is that you guys can go back to reading our great content uninterrupted just like the good old days.
That said, I’m thankful to the Fashion Bomb Daily staff for their hard work! Shout out to Faith, Ashley, Danielle, Mikelle, Esmesha, Giselle, Olamide, Vuitton, and new intern Jamé!
Also shouts out to everyone behind the scenes, including Sam our staff videographer, Pierre our staff photographer, and our new webmaster Alex, who has been working day and night to upgrade your online experience here at FBD.
Last, but not least, I am thankful to all of YOU for supporting us through hill and dale. I know we are close to the promised land, Hallelujer.
We can’t stop, won’t stop over here. And the best is yet to come.
Now you know what I’m thankful for.
What are you YOU most thankful for?
Happy Thanksgiving!

Hot! or Hmm…?
Rihanna was spied in NYC the other night in a black and blue Miu Miu coat and interesting footwear: $1,350 Maison Martin Margiela Fur and Glitter mules:
The light grey faux-Mongolian fur and silver glitter mules have a 3.75″ heel and an asymmetric square toe.
Comfortable and warm? Yes! Cute? Hmmm…
What do you think?
Black and White is always right–at least if you’re Janelle Monae!
The electric lady was honored at a Legacy Awards ceremony in Atlanta in a Fall 2015 black and white swirl printed dress from Olympia Le Tan’s Fall 2015 collection:
Tamara Mellon thigh hights and a burgundy hued felt fedora added subtle touches.
Her dress was modeled over a tulle skirt and opaque stockings.
Hat off to Janell’s stylist, Maeve Reilly, who manages to make black and white interested every time.
Hot!
What do you think?
Most of us are preparing our stomachs and spirits for Thanksgiving, but not before we all tune into the latest episode of Empire! The hit TV show is known for its special guest appearances, which just so happens to include Alicia Keys on tonight’s episode.
The songstress can’t be missed with purple hair and matching attire: a Jitrois Fall 2015 suede coat and Roberto Cavalli sweater.
We couldn’t pinpoint her cozy topper, but her coat was shown with a red leather shirt and black leather jumpsuit in the brand’s Fall 2015 collection. Hot! Literally.
Will you be tuning in to Empire tonight?
Mommy-to-be Chrissy Teigen indulged in some retail therapy with her mom in a pair of $346 Chloe Danae Sunglasses, a $1,785 Alexander McQueen Floral Print Silk Crepe de Chine Mini Dress, and $720 Isabel Marant Étoile Roxann Suede Boots:
Her sunnies feature geometric gradient lenses for a retro-inspired and refined look.
Her black, sky-blue, and green daisy print silk crepe de chine dress boasts long sleeves and gathered cuffs. Chrissy wore the frock’s ties to the front instead of letting them cascade down the back.
Her western-inspired ankle boots feature tapered toes, stacked and functional 3.75″ heels, and pull tabs at the topline.
Loving her maternity style!
If you’re up for the splurge, get Chrissy’s shades here, dress here, and boots here.

Hey ya’ll!
Well, it’s that time of year again! Yep, Thanksgiving Eve is upon us and I couldn’t be more excited. It’s an amazing feeling to actually sit down and enjoy time with your family/friends – I mean, there’s no greater love. With that, I pray that each of you have a memorable and blessed holiday.
But, aside from the yearly festivities, let’s get into our featured Bomb Blogger – Erica Lavelenet of The Fashion Philosophy!
I discovered Erica via Refinery29. (Ahem! I’m a huge fan of sifting through online publications and finding some of the blogosphere’s best.) This native New Yorker certainly has a flair for personal style as she effortlessly pulls off some of the season’s hottest trends. In her mission statement regarding the mission/purpose of her blog, she humbly states “It’s less about the outfits, more about the experience. (It has) Little to do with the clothes, more about how they make you feel.“
This fashionista’s style embodies a wide variety of awesomeness! She can uplift a mean pair of flared jeans and turn around and don a sultry Nasty Gal lace-up bodysuit – the range is insane. I was also intrigued by Erica’s knack for rocking quirky accentuations. It’s just refreshing to run across a style maven who deviates from the “uniform” that some bloggers tend to duplicate consistently. All in all, the girl just gets it!
Slay on, hun!
