The Balmain x H&M collaboration is set to be a surefire hit with fashion focused crowd! Of course, our fave celebrities are bound to have their fair share of fun styling with the fab finds. To wit, rapstress Nicki Minaj posed alongside beau Meek Mill at 105.1’s Powerhouse 2015 Concert sporting a Balmain x H&M Rope Embroidered Gold Detail Black Sleeveless Top and Embellished Open Toe Booties from the collection:
Her top features a rope bib-like detail with pops of patterned gold accents.
Her sleek and statement embellished open toe booties come equipped with a back gold-tone zipper for ease of closure.
Hot! I’m absolutely loving these pieces. I’ll wear ’em.
Laverne Cox went glam at the American Ballet Theatre 75th Anniversary Gala in a $3,400 Dee Hutton Bandit Gown:
Her silk faille and silk charmeuse dress features a fitted, sleeveless bodice, full skirt with high-low detailing and a train, and contrast banding at the hem.
Pretty!
If you’re up for the splurge, get Laverne’s dress here.
Solange Knowles is out and about in LA. She attended a T Magazine Celebrates The Greats event last night at Chateau Marmont in a Chayalan Orange Tunic, Shorts, and Stuart Weitzman sandals:
Her look was modeled with gold heels.
Hot! Citrusy tones are her thing!

Want to have Drake all over your lips?
Look no further than Tom Ford. As part of his 2nd annual Lips & Boys collection (where he names lipsticks after notable men in his life) the designer has tapped the Hotline Bling rapper as his muse.
The creamy $52 lip shade will boast a a deep burgundy color, and will be available for purchase on October 30th.
I love Tom Ford and Drake, so this seems like a match made in beauty heaven.
Would you splurge on ‘Drake’ lipstick?
We’re ending this week with an international Bombshell! Check out Mari from Sierra Leone:
She writes, “I am originally from Sierra Leone and currently live in Maryland.”
” I started my personal blog about five months ago.”
” Your fashion blog is a source of inspiration for upcoming bloggers like myself.”
” My style is versatile, confident, elegant yet fun. I enjoy collecting vintage pieces because its allow opportunity to create a truly distinct, unique, and liberating outfit to make one stand out.”
” Bold colors enhance my mood.”
” I believe it is a talent to be able to mix and match high and low end items to create a statement piece; it is not about the monetary value that makes an outfit but how an outfit is presented.”

I’ve still recovering from the RMC–I can’t wait for the weekend to get some real relaxation! A handful of you guys sent in wardrobe queries, so I figured I’d take a crack at it.
Let’s go!
Jessica types, “I have searched the internet all last night (after their performance) and this morning for the chunky ankle boots Nicki and Beyonce wore for the Tidal concert last night.”
” You always know the details so I figured I’d put my search on hold and just ask you! Hope you can help! Thank you for your site! Love it daily! xo
Thanks! It took me a minute, but I found it! Nicki and Bey dipped it low in $790 Prada Lace Up Chunky Booties:
The lace ups have a 4″ chunky heel and a napa leather upper.
Lynda says, “Sometime last week Lorde posted some behind the scenes pictures for the ‘Magnets’ music video on her Instagram. This really gorgeous white cape jumpsuit was one of the outfits she wore in the video,I would love to get details on this please.”
” Thank you & keep the amazing work up!”
Yep! Lorde looked sultry in a Spring 2016 white caped jumpsuit by Michael Costello. See as similar piece below:
Lastly, in an Unsolved Mail Bomb, Martijn writes, “Hallo i really wanted to know what jacket rick ross is wearing ,i dont know if you could help me greetings .”
I’m not sure about this one! Though I do have an update on an older Rick Ross Mail Bomb. Someone asked about this denim/fur topper. Turns out the piece is by Michael Cherry:
Inquire here.
That does it for today!
Stay tuned for today’s Bomber and Bombshell, and even more Fashion Bomb Fabulosity!
Smootches!
