Happy Saturday!
So I’ve landed in LA for the BET Awards. It’s my very first time being on the scene, but I think it will be fun, and I’m excited about getting some original content for you guys!
There are loads of events leading up to the actual awards show. Yesterday, I popped by a pool party at the Mondrian Hotel hosted by Tidal and Meek Mill.

See who rolled through:

How adorable is Justine Skye? The songstress graced the event in a LaQuan Smith lace top, Maje skirt, and Christian Louboutin heels.

Wale and I chatted a bit about fashion (he has a thing for style!). He rocked an Off White by Virgil Abloh Varsity Letter Jacket and Balmain jeans.

Elle Varner came ready for the pool in a black bikini, sheer cover up, Chloé sunglasses, and Bottega Veneta black and white strappy sandals.

Fabolous paired denim shorts with an OG tank, vintage shades, and Buscemi sneakers.

French Montana was in the building in an Alexander McQueen skull printed button down.

The man of the hour, Meek Mill, slipped on black pants, a Helmut Lang graphic tee, and Givenchy Tyson High Tops in navy leather.

And I hit the carpet (why not?) in a Mary Katrantzou shirt, a Violet Flower Boutique Denim Skirt, and MSGM sandals.
It was a fun time!

Today’s Fashion Bomber is from Jackson, Tennessee, so I thought I’d keep it consistent with a Tennessee Bombshell! Behold, Jenil from Memphis:

She says, “I would describe my style as classic-badu cool style with a little funk to it.”


” Switching it up everyday makes me look at the world in a new perspective.”

Cool and quirky! I see you indulged in those Nasty Gal thigh highs. They look great!

Thoughts on this submission?

What do you think of Jenil from Memphis?

Hot! Duh! She’s obviously a Bombshell!

Not a Bombshell, but ok style…

Some hits, some misses!

Not good, but not awful

Hmm….I’ll pass

It’s been a moment since we’ve had a Solange sighting, but the popular DJ did make an appearance at a Pride Week event at Kiehl’s in New York City! She mastered the 1’s and 2’s in a Fall 2013 tan and yellow ensemble by Harbison:

Off white pumps and red lips completed her look.

Her fur collared jacket was modeled as a detachable piece with black buttons. She lost the fur, and equipped her version with white buttons to complement her heels.


This is not my favorite look of hers, but she rocks it, as she does with everything!

So the summer is all about men’s style! And though I’ve taken an L from covering men’s fashion weeks, Fashion Bomb friend and Montreal based photographer Naska Demini was on the scene in Florence, Italy, taking alluring pictures of men of women at Pitti Uomo 88.

Pitti is one of the most important international events for menswear and men accessories collections. Naska wrote, “[Men and women] came out in style this summer season. We saw trends such as tattoos, Panama hats, and sock less feet wearing sneakers.”

There’s a lot to love, folks!
Take a look below:

And because there’s SO MUCH goodness, I’m going to keep this on the homepage all week, switching out the main shot every day so we can fully appreciate it all!

Cutie Karrueche recently stepped out for dinner with friends in Los Angeles while sporting a $68 Topshop Rust Bardot Crinkle Off The Shoulder Ruffle Sleeve Playsuit:

Her bohemian feel bardot playsuit places shoulders and legs on display.

Tailored with flared sleeves and a crinkle fabric finish, it features an elasticated waist and shoulders for the perfect fit.

I’m loving the ease of this!

Her sold out gold stunners feature an open toe snakeskin effect with a brand embossed insole, metallic sheen and a high stiletto heel.

 

Hot!

 

Purchase her playsuit here. Thoughts on her high-low mix?

*Amber Rose and FBD Editor-In-Chic Claire Sulmers are also a fans of the gorgeous gilded stompers.

Who do you think wore it best?

A denim skirt is a wardrobe staple, as witnessed by fashionistas like Rihanna, Beyonce, Kim Kardashian, and more!
Add one to your arsenal with One Teaspoon’s $120 Freelove Denim Skirt:

This particular option takes distressing to a whole new level, with distressed patches in the front and the back.

Pair yours with a white tee as displayed here…

Or go the more popular route, and rock yours with a denim button down or jacket.





How would you wear it?

Whelp, the BET Awards are on Sunday! And, I’m SUPER excited that Tracee Ellis Ross and Anthony Anderson will be hosting! I think they’re an hilarious duo.

Last night, the network held its Pre-BET Awards 2015 Dinner and the host, herself, donned a sheer floral embellished number by Veronique Leroy and white So Kate Christian Louboutins. She kept her accessories to a minimum and even rocked a top knot.

Tracee’s ‘fit was also spied on the runway in the designer’s Summer 2015 collection. The model accentuated the look with leather flats and a bold lip.

I think we can all agree that Louboutin’s So Kate pumps are a classic! These beauties can be paired with almost every outfit and their feminine appeal always adds touch of sophistication.

What do you think of Tracee Ellis Ross’s Veronique Leroy Summer 2015 Sheer Floral Embellished Dress and White Christian Louboutin So Kate Pumps?

Yes! She looks amazing!

Eh, it’s not her best look.

All in all, I loved this look on her! This is an amazing summer look.

Signing Out — Esmesha 

 

Happy Thursday everyone!

Summer is in full swing and I plan on taking full advantage of it!

While the menswear shows are going down across the pond, our favorite starlets slipped on fashionable fits for dinner, traipsing through the airport, on the red carpet, and more.

Let’s see what they wore this week!

Selita Ebanks demonstrated the timelessness of the white button-front shirt and polka dots, sporting the former and the latter in the form of breezy trousers while dining at Craig’s Restaurant. Hot!

While traipsing through LAX, Jada Pinkett showed off her enviable figure in a mesh embroidered t-shirt, denim cutoffs, and sneakers. Even when keeping it casual, she looks flawless.

I would really love to get my hands on these new Yeezy Boosts and Kim Kardashian has been putting them to good use over the last few weeks! The mommy-to-be kept it comfy in the Nice Côte d’Azur Airport in a long trench, flesh-tone bodysuit with a low-cut neckline, and Haider Ackermann Velvet Joggers. A great travel ensemble for sure.

A mixed denim-ensemble and strappy leather flat sandals were Ashley Madekwe’s choices while out and about in LA.

Gigi Hadid was pretty in pink at the 2015 MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto donning a cropped biker jacket with her last name emblazoned on the back and a matching textured crop top and high-waist slit pencil skirt combination, anchored with a pair of blush pink cutout booties. Hot!

At her Breathe In, Breathe Out CD Signing Event in NYC, Hilary Duff was draped in a metallic striped short-sleeve cropped turtleneck and short set. Cute no?

Though in the City of Angels, Jamie Chung showed her love for Paris in a stripe, graphic tee giving a nod to the stylish city, a destructed denim skirt, and black leather sandals.

Jessica Alba was simple and chic in a white Narciso Rodriguez dress while in the Big Apple. You can never go wrong with a LWD right?

Kourtney Kardashian opted for all-white while sister Khloe chose all-black while filming Keeping Up With the Kardashians in Calabasas. I loved Kourt’s off-the-shoulder top and bold clutch!

While dining at Cecconi’s Restaurant in West Hollywood, Nicole Scherzinger flaunted her lean physique in a high-neck, cap-sleeve bodycon dress and python pumps.

I’m not a huge fan of mullets or black chunky leather boots, but Rita Ora’s classic white button-front shirt and Chanel skirt made up for them both when she was spotted in NYC this week.

Closing out the week was Selena Gomez who uplifted denim cutoffs and suede booties with a metallic brocade jacket.

Who had your favorite look this week?
