Her black and green harlequin print mini dress features long sleeves, gilded accents, a high neckline, and a figure-skimming fit.

After surviving another hectic week, let’s unwind and get into some of our favorite looks!
1) Jennifer Lopez in Bao Tranchi
The gorgeous Jennifer Lopez was spotted at her 1OAK birthday celebration rocking a black sheer paneled number by Bao Tranchi. The singer’s ‘fit uplifts sultry cutouts, a fitted silhouette and tons of sex appeal. My gosh, this woman doesn’t age!
2) Dascha Polanco in Jay Godfrey
Dascha Polanco served all kinds of life as she attended the Mission Impossible movie premiere in a white Jay Godfrey cutout gown and a 2nd Day Official jacket. The Orange Is The New Black actress also rocked a sleek ponytail, an embellished clutch and a bold, red lip. She looks great, no?
3) Kylie Jenner in Sass & Bide
Up next, we have Kylie Jenner! The reality star was papped while out and about in a blazer and short set by Sass & Bide. The fashionista’s frock is also part of the brand’s Pre-Fall 2015 collection and flaunts an eye-catching print. To top off her look, she added a pair of Dior aviators and black sandals. Yes!
4) Kim Kardashian West in Maison Margiela and Wolford
Expectant mom Kim Kardashian West loves her neutrals! This time, the style maven wore a peach Maison Margiela Crepe de Chine dress and a white Wolford Bilbao Dress. She kept the subdued colors consistent throughout her look and even donned a pair of nude heels. I’m here for it!
5) Beyonce in Dolce & Gabbana
Queen Bey looked feminine and flirty as she hit the streets of New York in a floral print Dolce & Gabbana bustier dress. The superstar added a bit of flair to her look by draping a white blazer over her shoulders and donning a pair of Ray-Ban Clubmaster sunnies. Talk about the perfect summer look. Flawless!

It’s Friday, so we have a Fashion Bomber! Get into Juan from Mexico:
He types, “I love clothes, especially when they are innovative and have a point of view.”
” I have been daring to wear new cuts and silhouettes, and I have discovered that I can make them work within my lifestyle with different degrees of success.”
” Of course I am not always fashion-forward, especially going to a meeting with clients or some other work-related events, but I try to inspire with the way I dress as much as possible.”
” I like to feel comfortable, and I do have a uniform of a white T, black jeans and a denim jacket whenever I don’t know what to wear, but I do try to push my boundaries when it comes to dressing.”
” I like to have fun.”
That’s apparent. You better work! You’re a Bomber in my book!

Happy Friday, Guys!
So after my fun and fabulous (!) trip to the British Virgin Islands, I hopped on down to Miami for the 2015 Color Comm Conference!
The event was created to uplift and encourage Women of Color in Communications through panels, empowering lunches, and dinners!
Fashion Bomb Daily is actually a media sponsor of the event, and was tasked with photographing some of the fabulous, fashionable women in attendance.
Take a look:
Inside the venue, we captured this Fashion Bomb reader who looked gorgeous in a wine hued maxi dress.
Color Comm Vice President Zoe Zeigler flaunted braids and a printed skirt.
And this attendee gave a conservative look some punch with a striped top.
We stopped @PurseEmpowerment during the day sessions, intrigued by her bright pink blazer and ‘Nerd’ sweater.
A gray dress and gorgeous hair was all @Sherhara needed to stand out in the crowd.
Later on in the day, we were wowed by @G2kWorld, who offset a @Circa24Forever printed skirt with a black crop top and a vintage beaded necklace.
Jasmine @JasmineFelicia went for easy and breezy in a look from Missguided.
@KissingLions gave high fashion in a layered look by Epperson.
Colorcomm President Lauren Wesley Wilson looked lovely in a printed maxi dress.
And I kept it colorful and ‘Miami’ inspired in a printed, fringed dress by the DPiper Twins.
I actually spoke on a panel about images of women of color in the media, and have been learning so much for the accomplished women here!
I’d definitely encourage you to come next year if you can. Learn more about it and see a few of the speakers at ColorCommConference.com.

So I’ve been meeting lots of great people at Color Comm!
One of them was Lorra Rivers, who makes her own leather handbags. I think you’ll like the Nikita Clutch:
The bag has a magnetic and zipper closure, nickel-plated hardware, and a cone spike detail.
If you like, purchase at LorraRivers.com for $238.

If you’re headed to Toronto this weekend to join in on the Caribana festivities, tap into today’s style inspiration.
Cassie writes, “Hello, I wanted to know if you may provide suggestions for Caribana weekend in Toronto. There are going to be club nights, boat rides, day parties, carnival and much much more”.
Keep your look fun and festive in a pair of printed brocade shorts offset by a white halterneck bodysuit.
Add a punch of color with ankle strap sandals, a fringe bib, and a neon clutch to complete the look.
Get into the carnival spirit in a neon threaded bikini and metallic blue lace-up sandals.
Add a few intricate details with a pair of drop deco earrings and a bold statement necklace.
Whether you’re poolside or hitting the deck, sizzle in a soft metallic zipper embellished bikini.
Gladiator sandals, a gold clutch, and a sheer fringed cover-up create a dazzling finish.
Hit up a day party in a ruched asymmetric draped skirt and simple cropped top.
Dress things up with a pair of gold embellished sandals, a wide brim embroidered trim hat, tassel earrings, and a green box clutch.
Party it up in a bandage cutout cropped top and a striped pencil skirt.
Uplift the look in a pair of So Kate pumps, a signature Giuseppe Zanotti clutch, and shimmering jewelry.
What do you think? Are today’s looks giving you that festive carnival feel?
Learn more about Caribana here. I might have to go next year!
We have one more day left in July: can you believe how the year is flying?
This week, celebs slipped on dresses of every iteration in the Sunshine State, along with some more casual looks including denim, sneakers, bodysuits, and more.
Let’s see what they wore!
Zendaya Coleman gave a spirited spin to the classic black and white combo in a contrast lapel tuxedo dress with a lace underlayer while making an appearance on The Boris and Nicole Show. I live for her style!
Eva Longoria went bold at the GKIDS’ Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet Screening in Los Angeles in a form-fitting blue frock with contrast stripes. Hot!
While out and about in LA, Chanel Iman showed off her mile-long stems in cutoffs, a tank, and strappy sandals.
It was all about neutrals for Kim Kardashian while leaving a photoshoot in LA in a long sand-hued coat and khaki-colored dress. As you can see, this is going to be her maternity uniform.
Christina Milian threw a #WCW block party at her We Are Pop Culture Pop-up Shop. For the fête, she kept it casual in all-white.
Closing out the week was Kylie Jenner in a white American Apparel bodysuit, high-waist jeans, Christian Louboutin pumps, and a slew of jewelry. I must admit: her style is slowly, but surely winning me over.
Who had your favorite look this week?
Happy Thursday!
Though Summer Sizzle BVI’s been over for a couple days, our excitement is still running high from their fashion show! Guests of the event were treated to dozens of international designers, specializing in everything from couture swimwear to red carpet gowns. While many showed, these five stood out to our editors:
1. Carlton Jones
The ever gorgeous Grace Bol opened Carlton Jones’s collection, wearing a purple one piece swimsuit with a diaphanous peacock printed cape trailing behind her. Subsequent looks offered a similar resort chic vibe; a breezy colorblock cover up worn over a bikini, wind catching kaftans, and fluttering, slightly sheer maxi dresses.
Carlton Jones pieces are for the bold woman who demands attention on vacation and beyond.
See more at CarltonJonesNYC.com.
2. Trefle Designs by Kristin Frazer
Another must have for your next beach excursion? Trefle Designs by Kristin Frazer.
Aside from the line’s flattering bikinis and alluring cover ups, I was a particular fan of the brand’s rainbow hued separates and swimsuits.
A high waisted bikini with a matching cape was one of my favorites from her showing, along with a bandeau top and pants combo.
Beyonce has already worn a piece by Trefle designs; who’s got next?

3.Cesar Galindo
Cesar Galindo moved the conversation from the beach to cocktail hour with a series of sinewy maxis, adorned with modern curved rods.
The ball ended metallic embellishments defined waists and clavicles in a unique way.
Other stand outs included floral high waisted pants and lipstick pink maxis.
See more at CesarGalindoNYC.com.
4. Yumi Katsura
From Cesar Galindo’s cocktails, Yumi Katsura changed the tone with scintillating gowns, embellished with beads and frothy ruffles.
The white, bridal inspired gowns were certainly my favorite. Any bride with spunk would be proud to wear one of these on her big day.
More pictures to come! Until then, learn more at YumiKatsuraCouture.com.
5. Leanne Marshall
Project Runway Season 5 winner Leanne Marshall closed the show with red carpet ready creations, which fluttered with unadulterated movement.
Hues ranged from brooding black to olive, burnt orange, and ombre dipped designs.
My favorite had to be this billowing gown.
I can’t wait to see who wears it at the next high wattage event! See more at LeanneMarshall.com.
Though lots of designers showed, above were a few of my favorites.
