Happy Monday, Bombers and Bombshells!
Our No Basics summer brunch series concluded this past Saturday with a fun fete, full of fashionable folks (like the alliteration?)!
The monthly event is an opportunity to get dressed up, network, eat, drink, and be merry!
Take a look at all the fly guys and gals that swung by Corner Social in Harlem:
Corey and Linda from Midget Giraffe have attended every one of our No Basics Brunches and always look smashing! I need Linda’s striped suit for Fashion Week!
@Nomimongolian worked a cheetah printed romper. Hot!
This assemblage of beauty, bold style, and brown skin epitomizes the spirit of the brunch and our blog! There are almost too many fab ladies to name, though I did write down a few, including @MarshBarsCloset, @Thee_Shopaholic, @Kira_Nacole, @AlwayzPretti, @MyseleganceBoutique, @Ms.Sylla, @Kerry_Fiona, @StyledToaTea, @mzladyclassy, and @Delightfulace. If I forgot anyone, please leave a comment!
The @ShoptheDisclothesure girls @Amiraavee and @EboisAubin_ broke away from the crowd to showcase their black and white outfits. Hot!
@AdiatDisu looked bomb in blue.
Rompers and jumpsuits were popular! @IslandChic77 looked lovely in a lacy option from H&M.
Brenda aka @theonlyskinnybish rocked a dress from the hot e-commerce store @ShopZuvaa.
Jewelry designer Trenna Seney of LoveTrenna.com paired Zara sandals with a printed dress and a fringed bag.
@PennyJammin_ looked absolutely amazing in an H&M collared shirt, printed shorts, and Charlotte Russe sandals. Yes!
@Irrefutably.Jiggy rocked a Zara and Suit Supply ensemble.
As for the hosts…!
We opted for a silver color palette for the daytime event.
If you follow me on Snapchat, you’d know I was having issues getting dressed, in addition to having an irritated eye (!) and a hairstylist on vacay! At any rate, I got it together, and slipped on a draped white top, Norma Kamali shorts, Casadei blade pumps, and Dior So Real shades.
We had a midnight brunch the night before (pix coming soon to the Bomb Life!). We opted for a gold color palette for our evening event.
I wore a custom dress by South African designer David Tlale, while Ty rocked House of Ladon, and Legendary Damon donned Moschino.
This weekend was full and fun!
With all those brunches and travel under my belt, I’m going to rest up for the remainder of August and prepare for Fashion Week! I’m doing the whole circuit this go round, it’s about to be on and poppin! I might also host a small event during NYFW.
As always, keep it locked here for the latest.

The Kardashian-Jenner clan came together to celebrate Kylie Jenner’s 18th birthday.
The family is known for fashion, so you know they came to slay!
Take a look at what they wore:
King Kylie slipped on a platinum wig, along with a Nicolas Jebran Spring 2015 sparkly mini dress. She looks amazing!
Kendall Jenner showed off loads of leg in a high slit Laquan Smith Fall 2015 neon accented skirt, silver Aquazzura ‘Linda’ sandals, and a white bandeau top.
We’re in love with the Koko! She showed off her frame in a $1,735 Balmain striped chenille and mesh dress.
Kim and Kanye blessed the festivities in pared down ensembles, with Kim in a sheer black and Balmain braided sandals.
Kourtney Kardashian has been hitting the gym, and showed off her hard work in a $495 Laquan Smith ‘Fearless’ bodysuit with a cut out/nude mesh detail.
Caitlyn Jenner gave face in all black.
And lastly, Matriarch Kris Jenner gave boudoir chic in a black bustier and leggings.
That does it!

She says, ” My style is a medium for self-expression and hence is very versatile.”
” It changes with my mood, location and surrounding.”
” However, two factors stay constant:”
” simplicity…”
“… and sophistication.”
Hot! What a great way to start off the week! You’re a Bombshell!

This weekend was on fire with fabulous events, from the No Basics Brunch in Harlem (shameless plug) to Steve Harvey’s Neighborhood ‘Hoodies’ Awards in Atlanta, Georgia!
Take a look at the attendees of the latter:
Steve and Marjorie Harvey beamed, with the couture loving Mrs. Harvey in a Tom Ford Spring 2015 sheer embellished ensemble. This picture simply doesn’t do her look justice, so take a look at a shot from her Instagram, photographed by Rob Ector.
This is why you hire your own photographer. Yes, ma’am! She slays all day!
Kandi Burruss rocked all white, and added some sizzle with $1,495 Tom Ford leather T-Bar sandals.
Tamar Braxton opted for both short and low cut in an electric blue mini.
She grabbed a pic with her mother Evelyn. Her makeup looks flawless!
Michelle Williams debuted a braided hairstyle and an African printed ensemble by Melange Mode.
Lastly, The Perfect Guy co-stars Michael Ealy and Sanaa Lathan looked gorgeous in blue tones.
There you have it!

Hey all! Summer is still here and bringing on the heat wave. But it seems like a few of our faves are bringing the heat themselves. From birthday parties to baby showers and soaking up the sun on the beach, let’s see who had themselves a blast and a stylish weekend!
Speaking of statement necklaces, LeToya Luckett sported hers during a selfie moment while rocking a $505 pair of Dior ‘So Real’ sunnies. Does she ever not give face?
Chanel Iman is all about the jetset life. Snapped while in Dubai, the supermodel opted for an olive colored Elie Saab jumpsuit for the night’s festivities. Chanel Iman always looks elegant and modern, and this look attests to that.
Blogger, socialite, DJ, and fitness buff Hannah Bronfman took in a few rays on the beach while giving some 90’s flair in her $391 black Lisa Marie Fernandez swimsuit. The zippered front elevated this swimsuit with some sex appeal, but also gives the option for something more modest. Sometimes, you don’t have to show it all off to make a statement, even at the beach.
Singer Sevyn Streeter LIVES for and LOVES New York City. She was daytime fly on a sunny day in The City wearing an H&M romper, clutch and sunnies, a Melody Ehsani choker, and Charles David shoes. Who said you have to break the bank to stunt? Hot!
Winonah de Jong attended a Vogue Netherlands cover party, and I’m sure she had onlookers green with envy. She wore a Wolford bodysuit, a $1,190 green pleated Lanvin skirt, Gianvito Rossi sandals and a $2,473 Mark Cross ‘Grace’ Small Box Bag. It’s a simple ensemble, but it packs enough punch to make things interesting. I like!
And last, but not least, is Laura Govan, who paused to pose for the ‘Gram while at a friend’s baby shower. Kicking all things frilly to the wayside, Miss Govan opted for a white jumpsuit, an elongated vest by 95twenty, an Hermès Birkin, and Christian Louboutin heels. A little too severe and striking for a baby shower to me, but the tailoring is quite impeccable. The vest was a great addition to the look as well. I like!
That’s it for this week! Who takes the top looks for you?
Aimee Song is a staple on BCBGMAXAZRIA’s front row, thus it was no surprise to see her at the brand’s Resort 2016 Presentation. Naturally, she sported a BCBG piece, donning a $298 Elley Embroidered Jacquard Peplum Top:
Her geometric embroidered top features crossover peplum detailing and a cutout below the bust for a flash of skin.
Hot! I love her style.
If you’re up for the splurge, get Aimee’s top here.
Are you feeling it?
Rihanna kept the party going in Barbados! She spent some time in the sun and surf in an $85 Lychee Swimwear Tahiti Floral Bikini Top and $75 Floral Hamptons Bottoms:
Her bikini top features a floral print and white contrast trim.
Her floral print bottoms showcase cutout detailing.
Cute!
Get Rih’s top for a steal here and bottoms here.
Would you wear them?
Kylie Jenner spent some quality time with her sister at Go Greek in a $1,495 RtA Zouzou Leather Jumpsuit:
Her black lambskin leather jumpsuit features long sleeves and moto styling.
I have my eye on this for Fall!
If you’re up for the splurge, get Kylie’s jumpsuit here.
What do you think?
*Sister Kourtney joined her in a $158 RtA Joni Shirt, a Saint Laurent Western Belt, denim, Gianvito Rossi Plexi Pumps, and a Chanel Dallas Leather Drawstring Fringe Bag. Thoughts on her ensemble?
Salma Hayek was spotted out and about in New York City in the same $1,290 Saint Laurent Lipstick Print Blouse Camilla Luddington wore just earlier this week:
Salma paired the blouse with round, double-bridge shades, black trousers, red peep-toe pumps, and a suede clutch. Camilla opted for a pair of $530 10 Crosby Derek Lam Flared Shorts and $745 Manolo Blahnik Ankle Tie d’Orsay Pumps.
The silk blouse features an allover red lipstick print, single-button cuffs, and a button-front.
Camilla won this round for me.
What do you think? Who wore it better?
