I’m so excited about today’s Bomb Blogger, Micah Gianneli!
With exceptional photography and stunning beauty, Micah’s style blog has become one of my go-to sources for inspiration. From jumpsuits to denim on denim, this fashionista can rock absolutely anything, and has definitely solidified a place in my favorites.

Micah embraces a neutral aesthetic while still managing to create distinct and memorable looks. Not shy about showing a little skin, she’s unquestionably fearless when it comes to incorporating trends. With a mean sunnies game and that signature pixie cut, Micah knows how to jazz up any look.

Micah’s blog is just as awesome as she is. Not only does she discuss fashion but she also writes about other topics including hair, makeup and travel. In addition, she also manages a YouTube channel – you can check that out here. Is there anything this woman can’t do? I truly believe Micah Gianneli is worthy of Bomb Blogger status – I mean, she’s fun, confident and undeniably cool. Now, if that doesn’t define a Bomb Blogger, I don’t know what does.

1. David Tlale

South African designer David Tlale melded contemporary with culture for his Spring 2015 show, offering a mix of African affiliated Dutch Super Wax Empire Vlisico fabrics with the more muted, hushed tones championed by New York brands.
 


Light catching pink, orange, and blush shared the stage with fantastically printed hot shorts, dresses, and vests, ensuring that everyone in attendance would find something to pique their sartorial senses.

A stunning range of black models, led by Tyson Beckford, ensured a spectacularly impactful visual onslaught.

2. B. Michael America

Industry veteran B. Michael honed his singular skills under the tutelage of Oscar de La Renta and Louis Feraud, setting the stage for the simple, elegant aesthetic his Spring 2015 couture collection conveyed.

Prim flared frocks, dotted with florals, were accessorized by hats fit for a First Lady; scintillating pants and bell sleeved shirts seemed perfectly pegged for a Park Avenue princess.



B Michael’s offerings were elegance personified, fashioning frocks and fabrics fit for an American Queen.

3. Josh & Nicol

Josh & Nicol


Created by designer Ufuoma Ekpecham, UK brand Josh & Nicol strives to promote African pride without the typical attachment to Dutch wax prints and fabrics. Their collection, instead, encompasses easy chiffon and satin pieces, decorated with the side profile of Queen Idia, the 17th century warrior queen of the Benin Kingdom.

Tops and blazers boast a cameo of this powerful woman, telling the story of her attachment to bold jewelry, lipstick, and baubles with embellishments.

4. Azede Jean Pierre

9  azede jean pierre spring 2015 2


Azede Jean Pierre has been on my designer to watch list for several years, and her Spring 2015 collection shows why. Her designs continue to show growth, skill, and originality, as witnessed by her latest foray.

This season she continued her nature inspired predilections with leaf print separates, and also played with larvae and butterfly imprints on lace.

She also dipped her toe into knitwear, with crop tops and skirts sets and dresses boasting fantastic fringe.


Stay tuned for the review.
In the meantime, learn more about Azede here.
5. 5:31 Jerome

As I wrote here, 5:31 Jerome’s collection was inspired by the notion of a desert mirage, given an extra dose of glamour with sequins, jewels, and scintillating accessories.

Both tailored an insouciant, standout pieces included big buttoned shorts and pants suits, paired with ethereal blouses, and lemon hued safari vests, worn with shorts, and topped off by granular lace ups.

Learn more about the brand at 531Jerome.com.
6. LaQuan Smith

LaQuan Smith is another show we reviewed here on the site, a show that bubbled over with neutral black and white tones edged in sequin, PVC, and lace.

Smith’s signature sex appeal was on 10, witnessed by delightfully sheer shirts dotted in glitter, and scandalously cropped tops paired with midi skirts.

7. Dom Streater

Project Runway winner Dom Streater showed her collection to a packed crowd at No.8 in the Meatpacking District. Her Spring 2015 foray took inspiration from flight attendants with pizzazz; think printed separates topped by stewardess hats and accessorized by chic carry ons.


Colors skewed neutral with blacks, whites, and blues with pops of red. Swirling shifts could carry you from the office to the after party.

After designing for a slew of urban brands (The Nicki Minaj Collection, Jay Z’s Rocawear, Nelly’s Apple Bottoms, Nicky Hilton’s Chic, Eve’s Fetish, Sean Comb’s Sean John, Justin Timberlake’s William Rast), Kianga Kitty Peterson decided to launch her own line of resort wear, made for the girl who wants to look glamorously chic while traveling the world. Spring 2015 saw jumpsuits, cute coverups, and stomach cinching dresses with intricate details.

9. Harlem Haberdashery

Harlem Haberdashery is known for their Varsity inspired, prep pieces, fashioned for the urban man on the go. Their runway show, presented during Harlem’s Fashion Row, took a dark turn with everyone from Fat Joe modeling contrast sweatpants and a swaddling jacket, to models rocking military inspired pieces.

Byron Lars also showed during HFR’s show, with items curated for the woman on the go. With no shortage of sparkles, eyelets, and prints, the collection was not for the shrinking violet, but for the woman unafraid to shine.

She writes, “Growing up I was really shy and more of a tom-boy so I didn’t know what to do with my look besides baggy clothes (I remember telling my friends that my curves were a curse lol).”


” But as I grew, I learned to embrace myself, and my curves and now I just try to have fun with what I wear !”


“I would describe my style as Feminine, Fun & Sensuous.”


“You’ll catch me in a basic all – black outfit (jeans and crop tops) every once in a while when I’m working or at school, but 95% of what I wear out, are my own designs.”


“I don’t know if this is going to be added to the post but I see a lot of harsh comments on FBD especially under bombshell posts and I just think people need to loosen up because someones personal style is just an extension of their personality.”


” It’s great that we have a platform like FBD to show our styles, and that people get to vote, but really the only feelings that count are those of the woman wearing them and that is ENOUGH.”


” Every woman has a right to wear what she wants and thats all “FBD – Bombshell of the day” stands for – Individual Expression.”

Bomb Blogger: Marisa Martins of The Messy Wardrobe

Happy Hump Day everyone!

I’m back at with another Bomb Blogger, but today I’m switching things up. The young woman featured was discovered on a whim via Tumblr! As a new follower (and fan) of her blog, The Messy Wardrobe, Marisa has a presence that can’t be denied. From the exceptional photography to her enviable physique, it’s clear as to why Marisa was chosen for our blogger spotlight.

Marisa’s style is chic with a pinch of edginess. Her look is unique and she owns every ensemble she flaunts! While randomly scouring Tumblr, I came across one of her photos. Immediately intrigued, I searched and searched for the source and (the end result) is this Fashion Bomb post. The Messy Wardrobe blogger truly understands what appeals to the eye and she certainly isn’t mortified by taking risks.

In addition to her immaculate styling, I was also fascinated by her accessories. The girl has magnificent taste. From her coveted statement heels to the daring coat modeled above, it’s impossible to not notice this emerging fashionista. So, Marisa, I salute you. Your style is simple yet memorable and, if I must say, you rock a mean bold lip!
