Happy New Year Bombshells and Bombers! We hope your new year is off to a great start. Starting us off this year for Fashion Bombshell of the Day is Kameel from NYC:
She says, “My Name is Kameel of the style blog Kameelyen.com.”
“I am a Belizean born (NYC living) designer who graduated from F.I.T and has worked in New York City as a Fashion Designer & Trend Forecaster for most of my career at various companies.”
“I compare my style to the characteristics of an actual chameleon.”
“Without vocalizing, chameleons communicate visually what they are feeling by changing colors and patterns to adapt or stand out. ““I truly believe style speaks louder than words. You can make so much noise without saying a word.” “My outfit choices are always dictated by mood and the moment.”
“To sum up my style, I am definitely a “Kameelyen” my style is constantly changing and evolving.”
“I decided to start documenting my travels, treasures and style via IG and my blog about a year ago.”
Here are some more photos she sent over:
Wow! What a bang for the new year! You can check out more of her awesome style over on IG @Kameelyen55. What do you guys think?

Crafted from luxe python in the classic courier silhouette, the bag has long fringing and a chain handle. Wear it over your shoulder, carry it as a clutch, or cross it over the body.
It comes in black, python, and green, and rings in at $1,095.
I gotta say, I love my namesake bag! I have it in a purplish color and can’t wait to wear it!

Vanessa types, “Hey I loved Porsha’s dress from tonight’s episode of Real Housewives.”
” Where can I find one similar?”
Porsha mixed high and low on last night’s explosive episode, pairing Giuseppe Zanotti sandals and a Bottega Veneta clutch with a dress that can be found at a number of affordable outposts. AlieExpress.com has this similar number for only $22.
After Louis Vuitton unveiled a video game character as one of the stars of their women’s Spring/Summer 2016 ad campaign, it seemed like nothing could top that unique choice–until artistic director Nicolas Ghesquière revealed rapper and actor Jaden Smith is also featured in the Series 4 campaign.
Smith models along side female counterparts while wearing pieces from the brand’s Spring 2016 womenswear collection. His participation isn’t totally surprising considering he’s been seen wearing women’s clothing in the past and frequently comments on gender roles in fashion.
Smith easily holds his own, no?

Creativity and originality were fiercely celebrated in 2015, as you gave high school senior Kyemah Mcentyre your vote of confidence for outfit of the year.
55% of you placed her in the winner’s circle, with Jazzy Jay writing, “Kyemah gets my vote because it was such a beautifully bold move by an up and coming youthful designer. Inspiring!”
We can only hope that Kyemah continues her winning streak into the ’16, offering even more vibrant and eye catching designs, worthy of any prom or style queen.
Are we shocked? Balmain pretty boy Olivier Rousteing easily slid into first place in 2015 with 59% of your votes.
’15 was a HUGE year for Mr. Rousteing. You couldn’t turn around without some hottie wearing a Balmain frock, and the fashion world gave him his due kudos with an onslaught of editorials featuring the brand and the man himself.
His year finished with flourish with a blockbuster collection with H&M. What will Olivier do next? We can’t wait to see.
It’s rare to see newer faces on our Best of Lists, so Lineisy Montero is a refreshing change.
The Dominican Beauty graced high fashion runways 68 times in 2015, all the while sporting her signature cropped natural ‘do.
In an age when we’re still counting the number of black models on runways, Lineisy’s presence and success are powerful. We hope to see more of her and more like her in the New Year.
While quite a few of you took issue with some nominees for Most Improved Fashionista, 37% of you were able to put your difference aside to give multi-hyphenate star Keke Palmer the title.
The young Bombshell hit her stylish stride in 2015, taking chances, and making bold moves on the red carpet.
Keke’s winning spirit shines through in all she does. She came to conquer in 2015, and who knows? Maybe she’ll glide onto our Fashionista of the Year list in 2016?
Ms. Coleman took the fashion world by storm in 2015, thanks to her gorgeous visage, modelesque frame, and willingness to try absolutely everything (and pull it off).
Not only were her choices alluring–they made a statement. Her faux locs hairstyle at the Oscars, the response, and the resulting furor showed that not only is Zendaya unafraid to take a chance, but she’s bold enough to stand by it.
A lovely combination of brains, beauty, and boldness made her your choice for Fashionista of the Year 2015. We have a feeling that Zendaya’s reign won’t let up in 2016.
This year Michael B. Jordan and Tinie Tempah tied for first place in our dapper gent competition!
While Michael takes a more traditional approach, Tinie has a bit more fun with silhouettes, colors, and cuts.
Both Bombers represent a range in Fashion Bomb Tastes, and shows that men can have fun with fashion, too.
Mr. and Mrs. Smith have aged like fine wine and look better and better as the years fly by.
Jada’s stature and flattering frocks ensure she’s always in the winning circle, while Will is never far behind with jazzy shirts and fun suits. The two together make red carpet magic.
Aside from their stylish exploits, they are both extremely accomplished, intelligent, and devoted parents. Does it get any better? I think not.
9. Fashion Bombshell of the Year: Charmaine from Atlanta
Like our fun daily feature, the Bombshell of the Year contest was the most popular with almost 2,000 votes! Even with all that activity, Charmaine from Atlanta was crowned Bombshell of 2015 with 39% of your votes.
There were over 100 comments on Pollcode, with most lauding Charmaine aka @Charmsie‘s creativity and eccentricity.
The three time Bombshell and How Do You Wear It? Submissions Queen has an unmatched devotion to Fashion Bomb Daily, so we fully support this appointment. Slay on, Charmaine!
Dex @DexRob from New York was afraid the older pictures used in the nomination post would hold him back, but such wasn’t the case: he won in a landslide with 38% of your votes.
For the New Year, he submitted the following current pictures for our viewing pleasure.
Dex was by far one of our most popular Bombers ever, and we can’t wait to see the new submissions this year!
And that does it for Best of 2015! Here’s to a super fabulous 2016 with even more unforgettably stylish moments!
Her coat wasn’t shown on the runway, but her trousers were shown in solid navy.
Her snakeskin, calfskin, and suede low-top sneakers feature detachable fox fur panels, rounded toes, debossed logos, and geometric-textured rubber soles.
Her leather tote features a box shape and gold hardware.
