It’s Friday!
So we have a Fashion Bomber. Tell us what you think of Chico from Atlanta:

He writes, “My style is for the most part chic and high fashion.”

” Sometimes I like to be extremely edgy but at the same time I’m still giving you high fashion.”


” I can give you glam with a clean face, t-shirt and a fresh pair of sneakers as well as with a BEAT face a fur and some knee high boots!!”

Hot! Hand over those thigh high boots!
See more on the ‘Gram @iamcchico.
What do you think?

What do you think of Chico from Atlanta?

Hot! Kaboom! This is a Fashion Bomber!

Not a Bomber, but his style is cool…

Some hits, some misses!

Not good, but not terrible

Hmm…nope!

It’s Friday, and it’s been a while since we’ve had Mail Bombs!
We have a handful of wardrobe queries in our quiver.
Take a look!
Styles by Vonsha types, “I would love to know where to get this shirt from I searched high and low!”


“Thanks in advance.”

Emily B threw a fur stole over a $240 McQ by Alexander McQueen top.

The form fitting top has mesh panels and a back yoke. Purchase at Shopbop.com or Saks.

Next, Felicia wrote, “Can you please tell me where to find or the designer of this super cute shirt dress worn by Tahiry at the Amber Rose SlutWalk on Saturday October 3,2015?”

Tahiry supported Amber’s movement in Schutz boots and a $79 Truly, Madly, Deeply Henley top, worn as a dress:


I recognized it because Karrueche Tran wore it last year as a shirt.

Sadly, the piece is sold out. Get a similar look here.

And Halima types, “It’s been sometime since I’ve reached out for help from the experts!”

“Can you please help me in identifying this cell phone accessory worn by Tracee Ellis Ross.”

I did a bit of research, and found that the brand Bandolier makes cool phone cases with studded straps:

It seems the company is low on cases with gold studded straps, but you can get a case with silver studs for $95 here.
Lastly, in an Unsolved Mail Bombs, Steph says, “ I just stumbled upon a picture on Gisele’s instagram and would be so grateful if you could tell me where did she get that amazing sweater! The picture’s old but so appropriate for the months to come ;)”

Since the picture is over 6 months old, I’m going to assume the sweater is no longer available! And sadly, I wasn’t able to find anything similar.
But if you guys know, please leave a comment!
I’m off to prep today’s Bomber and Bombshell, then begin my weekend.
Have fab ones!
Smootches!

So we’ve been having lots of contests, and now it’s time to announce the winners!
A few weeks ago, we offered to give away an Aviary Clutch from Fab.com.

And the beautiful Schuyler from Virginia was randomly chosen to receive the bag!

She wrote, “Wow, wow, thank you Claire! You just made my day! I rarely ever win a contest and I’m super happy that I got picked! I read your site FAITHFULLY every day to get inspiration from all the latest trends. There’s no other site out there like yours. I hope I can meet you at your Cocktails with Claire in DC soon and show you my new bag!”
See you then!
And as you know, we offered one lucky reader a Gift Certificate to Fashion Nova, provided they commented on the post, and also commented elsewhere on the site. 18 comments later, and Stephon from Charlotte, North Carolina was chosen as the winner!

In one of his comments, he wrote, “I order from fashion nova every time I get paid,” and in another, he wrote, “PICK ME plz. 🙂 I would definitely get the trophy wife bodysuit. I would also get the super high waisted jeans in white. The zoe jumpsuit and much more. PLEASE PICK ME. 🙂 <3″

You’ve been picked!
I love giveaways because I love spreading the love! Stay tuned for more fun contests in the upcoming weeks.
Smootches!

Happy Thursday everyone!

PFW has come to a close, which means we can actually get some sleep ’round these parts!

Though Fashion Month is over, we still have a few more looks that we need you to see, along with snaps from stylish parties, and more.

Let’s see what celebs wore this week, shall we?

Zendaya Coleman went bold at the Buro 24/7 Family Presentation in Paris in a turquoise fringe halter number. Hot!

At the first annual 2015 Latin American Music Awards, Adrienne Bailon shimmered and sparkled in a sequin Michael Costello number.

Chrissie Fit was also at the momentous event in a blue mini dress. Cute no?

A Tom Ford zipper-accented dress and Saint Laurent pumps were Garcelle Beauvais’s choices at the Tacori Presents Riviera Event. She’s never looked better!

Shay Mitchell gave a tough edge to white airy separates with a black leather jacket and black leather strappy cutout pumps.

At the Kingdom Season 2 Premiere, Natalie Martinez flaunted her curves in a form-fitting, sheer inset LBD with a flute hem. This was fab.

Did you all tune into American Horror Story: Hotel last night? The Countess aka Lady Gaga was killer: pun intended. Gaga was a metallic dream on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in a silver bow-accented frock.

Kylie Jenner tried on the overall trend for size in Woodland Hills. She stuck to an all-black ensemble in a pair of $170 Elizabeth and James Schiffer Overalls. I will definitely be recreating this for Fall!

At BBC Studios across the pond, Alesha Dixon donned a fedora, shades, cropped suede jacket, high-waist jeans, and pointed-toe booties.

Who had your favorite look this week?

HypeBeast has the scoop on prices for items in Kanye’s Yeezy Season 2 Collection. As predicted, they are ridiculous.

Regarding the men’s collection, they write, “According to a pricing sheet from an unknown source, the consumer costs are more than your average fair share of domestic streetwear brands, with some T-shirts starting at approximately $230 USD and boots at approximately $620 USD. The most expensive piece of clothing in the season appears to be a Bonded Fire Jacket at around $940 USD, while the least expensive is a light cotton jersey tank top for approximately $165 USD.”
Check the price list below:

For women, expect $400 hoodies, $900 boots, and $700 trench coats. The women’s line even has a Raglan Mesh tee for $1,240.

We now ‘get’ why luxury is so expensive–it looks like Kanye aims to been in a similar price range as Stella McCartney for Adidas. But with Stella x Adidas, you can see what you’re paying for. Yeezy Seaons 2 is pretty basic–so what’s up with the $1,000 mesh tee?

Yes, some of the price inflation could be due to his celebrity. But, perhaps the clothing has superior quality. Maybe the cargo jackets are lined in velvet, and sewn with golden thread.

Regardless of price, I’m sure we’ll be seeing the Kardashian/Jenners marching around in the wares before we know it.
What do you think of Kanye’s Yeezy Season 2 pricing? Will you be buying?

Elle Magazine threw an Anniversary Celebration in Paris, and the Harveys were in attendance, along with Lewis Hamilton, Miguel, Janelle Monae, Balmain’s Olivier Rousteing, and more!

For the occasion, the couture loving Marjorie opted for a $3,055 Balmain Black Velvet V-Neck Dress:

She accessorized with a cascading gold necklace, simple sandals, and a croc clutch. Peep a few of her personal pix below:

Her dress is accented with gold-tone brass hardware, silk trims, a deep V-neck and a nipped-in waist.

Yassss, Marjorie! Slay on, sista!

Purchase her dress at MatchesFashion.com.

*See a few more pictures from the night below:

Amal Clooney was spied out in London in a gray dress, flats, stockings, and the same $6,500 Burberry Green Ombre Suede Trench Naomi Campbell wore in LAX airport back in February:

Naomi accessorized with a wide brimmed fedora and Azzedine Alaia Over the Knee Boots.
The velvety suede trench has a double-breasted button closure, front slant-welt pockets, and a back vent.

Naomi wins in a landslide! Her fedora and boots make this coat look ever so chic.
What do you think?

Today’s Bombshell is Jessica from Athens, Georgia:

She says, “My name is Jessica Johnson and I am a female fashion blogger from Athens Georgia.”

” I’ve been following your fashion page for a while now, and I was excited to learn that you all feature other devoted fashion goers on your page, and I was also excited to learn that I had the opportunity to be a part of that after reading how to do so on the blog.”


” I have attached a few pictures of my work for you to consider.”


” I like to describe my style as edgy femme – feminine and edgy.”


” Thank you so much for your time and consideration, and keep up the great work with the blog.”

Will do! Edgy femme, indeed. I love your lace up top and leather mini!

Janell Monae has definitely been slaying our lives this Paris Fashion Week, working with a color palette of black and white!
She attended yesterday’s Valentino Spring 2016 show in a graphic printed dress and jacket from Philipp Plein’s Resort 2016 collection:
Jennifer Fisher baubles, a Chanel hair pin, an Edie Parker clutch, and red lips brought this look together. Her accessories game is sickening.

While the pieces were modeled with black pumps, she slipped on her Oscar Tiye colorblocked sandals.

Yet another winning look! It’s hard to go wrong with black and white.
What do you think?

Hot! or Hmm…Janelle Monae’s Valentino Spring 2016 Show Philipp Plein Resort 2016 Black and White Printed Dress and Coat + Her Elle USA Party Naeem Khan White Blazer and House of CB Pants

Thoughts on ensemble #2?

We’ve come to yet another beautiful Bomb Blogger! This week, I’m highlighting the sartorial musings of Kristine from Trendy Curvy.

As with previous features, I discovered Kristine via social media. A few of my followers started to give a heads up on this dashing diva and, at the request of the people, I decided to showcase her! She’s also been featured as our Fashion Bombshell of the Day (twice). I was instantly drawn to her effortless swag and her no-fuss style. This fashionista knows the importance of keeping it simple while remaining classy.

Kristine is a gem. Her killer wardrobe is filled with tons of arsenal include eye-catching heels, bold trousers, distressed denim and furry adornments. On her blog, she mentions the motto “everything isn’t for everybody” – and she certainly dresses accordingly! Kristine’s primary goal is to ‘show curvy women that they can be just as stylish as everyone else’. Well, hey, I’m here for it!!

Slay on, hun!
