Happy Monday!
Did you all have good weekends? I hope so!
At any rate, today’s Bombshell is Lavonndra from Charlotte, North Carolina:
She says, ” I would classify my personal style as a southern belle with a twist.”
” I love classic styles..”
“… pencil skirts…”
“… and I love COLOR.”
” My favorite designer is Kate Spade…”
” and I’m partial to a pointed toe high heel pump.”
” I have an hourglass figure so I enjoy wearing fit and flare type styles, or a bodycon fit.”
Snazzy! I love seeing conservative looks with a twist.

Hey all! Though it’s Monday, I’m sure you have no issue reliving a bit of the weekend, especially when a few of our favorite celebutantes flaunt their wares for Instagram. From appearances to afternoons out with the family, we have the rundown on those who are double tap worthy, and those who, hmm… may not have been. Let’s take a look!
First up is Lala Anthony, who gave us body in a black two-piece crop top and bodycon skirt set by Fashion Nova. The mogul partied it up in D.C. and vamped it up with this saucy look. Very hot, Mrs. Anthony!
Estelle rocked the stage at Charlotte Pride this weekend, and dazzled in a Tom Ford sequined jersey top. Funky sunglasses, denim shorts and peep-toe booties tied her fun look together.
Angela Simmons is a woman on the go. While in Canada, she stopped and posed for a quick pic for the ‘Gram while wearing some serious plaid. The $42 grid patterned overcoat and $58 playsuit from The Candy Room made this a very chic summer daytime look, but I’d save this for late September/early October. And can we ogle those purple lace-up platforms for a minute? Hot!
Chanel Iman takes the perfect Instagram pics. Gorgeous backdrops and amazing lighting always play a theme, but she takes it up a notch with stellar outfit choices. She took things to California this weekend, and was the essence of Bohemian chic in a romantic lace frock by Zimmermann. There is beauty is simplicity, and Chanel Iman found it. Hot!
Joan Smalls is proving to us that sometimes, you have to mix things up every now and then. She sported a laid back look while in Australia. A leather jacket, cap, shorts, and red Nike high tops? Definitely not mad at the pared down look. Hot!
Ciara also went for the leather jacket and Nike’s look this weekend as she spent the day with Little Future. Cute looks by mommy and son. He’s gotten so big!
Black-ish star Tracee Ellis Ross went over her lines on a quiet park bench, and epitomized comfort goals. She studied her script in a red, lacy Rachel Comey jumpsuit and Isabel Marant sandals. Not everyday requires a ball gown or restricting dress. I just love how at peace she looks.
Hannah Bronfman showed off a stunningly toned midsection as she DJ’d the Stella McCartney x Adidas launch event for the fitness wear collaboration. She wore a look from the line, and I’m feeling the white cheetah tights. Cute!
Amber Rose beamed while taking a quick flick after taping for Funny Or Die. Muva Rosebud wore a curve hugging House of CB dress with gold accessories. While I do like the dress, hmm… I feel like I may have seen her in something similar before.
Kylie Jenner is celebrating her 18th birthday all over the world!
She partied it up in Montreal over the weekend in the same long sleeved hand embroidered Nicolas Jebran mini dress Eiza Gonzalez wore to a Panel for the ‘From Dusk Till Dawn The Series’ at the El Rey Network 2015 Summer TCA Tour in Beverly Hills.
While Kylie accessorized with Dior Technologic shades and Stuart Weitzman nudist sandals, Eiza opted for eye catching lace up heels and pink lips.
The exact dress wasn’t modeled in the Fall 2014 collection, though you can see a similar multicolor design below:
I think they both look hot! It’s a cute dress and both ladies wore it well.

Most girls grow tired of burrowing through boxes and shelves of accessories to perfectly match their outfits. And frankly, a lot of brand name accessories don’t come in an endless array of colors, patterns nor textures. But Erin Miller, CEO and Creative Director of Boho Betty USA is committed to her mission to make accessory shopping easy, fun, and very beneficial for those who do.
Dubbed “The New Face of Fashion Jewelry”, Boho Betty originally started in the UK and Asia in 2012 by two British designers, Rebecca Middleton and Tania Buckley. Erin was gifted a bracelet from the brand, and loved it so much, that she partnered with the two designers to launch in the US. They want the girl who wears Boho Betty to feel confident and sexy, and it was important for Erin to incorporate her love of travel and exploring new places in each piece.
(l to r: Rebecca Middleton: designer, Erin Miller: CEO and Creative Director, Tania Buckley: designer)
From boldly colored bracelets bedecked in glistening rhinestones to beaded pieces to animal print, a design exists for literally every girl. The personalities of each of the designers I met shine through each piece, and quite simply, the bracelets are beautiful.
The buck doesn’t stop there. New collections will be rolled out about every six weeks to keep things fresh and exciting for the Boho Betty girl. Festival girls, accessory fanatics, and even moms (mine loves hers) won’t be able to get enough of these.
Prices start at $29, but that’s quite the steal for what you’re getting if you ask me. Head over to Boho-Betty.com for access and start ordering for yourself and gift to your friends!
As for the future, Erin and her team (which also includes her lovely husband Adam) were tight-lipped on what surprises they have in store. But based on what we’ve seen, we’re sure whatever it is is sure to be big.
The 2015 Teen Choice Awards is kicking off now, which means the stars are already flooding the red carpet! From some very stylish TV personalities to the most fashionable teenage actresses around, the evening’s looks are already ranking high on the sartorial scale.
Let’s see what they wore!
Keke Palmer paired a Mod hairstyle with a modern Giulietta Resort 2016 dress. She’s never looked better!
Zendaya Coleman always brings it in the beauty and style departments and she did not disappoint! Her sleek hair, Ashi Studio strapless ruffled bandeau top, and high-waist skirt with a thigh-high slit from the brand shot her straight into the night’s Best Dressed. She anchored her look with her very own Daya pumps. Hot!
Rita Ora was suited up for the evening in a red Max Mara combination, platform sandals, and pink hair.
Empire’s Bryshere Gray gave a black v-neck t-shirt and trousers some flair with a geometric-inspired blazer and red kicks. His style is impeccable!
Gina Rodriguez is one of the night’s hosts and her embellished Alberta Ferretti frock was the perfect ensemble for the festivities.
Bella Thorne never misses a chance to wear a mini dress, so her strapless embroidered Balmain number was no surprise. Cute no?
Rocsi Diaz flaunted her enviable figure in a long-sleeve dress with cutout shoulders. This was definitely fab.
It was all about prints for Blackish actress Yara Shahidi. She donned a one-shoulder patterned flare dress and cutout heels for the occasion. I also loved her braided side pony. She’s a cutie with great style!
Candice Patton was pretty in pink in a long-sleeve mini dress in a blush hue. Something about this look needed a bit more panache…
Liz Hernandez kept it simple and chic in a leggy LBD and nude pumps. I’m always a fan of her fashion choices, though a fun pair of sandals would have knocked this out of the park.
A floral print Ulyana Sergeenko dress and white strappy sandals were Jordana Brewster’s choices for the awards show.
It was all about stripes for Jordin Sparks who couldn’t be missed in a black and white frock in the classic pattern.
The ladies of Fifth Harmony were on-trend in latex, thigh-high slits, off-the-shoulder necklines, lace, and more.
Raising Asia star Asia Monet Ray was positively adorable in floral and ruffles.
This jumping pose has become a Terry Crews signature and I love it! I also thought his all-white ‘fit with a Western-inspired belt and black sneakers were fun.
A little black mesh, some prints, embellishment, and a lot of leg were on the menu for Lucy Hale. What’s not to like about her Julien Macdonald dress?
Ludacris and daughter Karma kept it casual in sneakers. Is just me or is Luda looking incredibly svelte and tanned? I’m here for it!
Wiz Khalifa and son Sebastian matched in white button-front shirts and Vans. Sebastian is just the cutest, though his father could’ve remembered to button his shirt.
Lea Michele never fails to be charming and her strapless colorful flare Monique Lhuillier dress was plain old delightful!
Nina Dobrev shimmered and sparkled in a sequin-embellished long-sleeve Zuhair Murad dress with sultry sheer insets.
Jason Derulo showed off his ankles in cropped trousers, a grey blazer, white-button front shirt, and fringe-detailed sneakers. Not a fan of the shoe choice here, but the rest of the look was pretty dapper!
Britney Spears’s rainbow-hued hair and high-low embellished dress were fitting.
Shay Mitchell slipped on a printed long-sleeve tuxedo-inspired dress. Hot!
Rue 107‘s Pre-Fall 2015 collection overflows with show stopping and staple pieces for curvy fashionistas:
Maxi wrap dresses, leggings, and pencil skirts are on tap this season, fashioned out of stretch chiffons, jersey, and heavy weight pontes.
Prices are reasonable, with dresses ringing in at $125, and everything else coming in at less than $100
For NYC Bombshells, Rue 107’s showroom will open in the garment district next month! Customers will be able to shop in person. Be sure to follow them on Instagram @Rue107 for more details.
