Happy Friday!
So I made my VH1 debut Wednesday night, chatting about the style and sartorial tastes of Nicki Minaj:
I actually missed it’s debut because I was out hanging from ceilings, but thankfully you can watch the full episode below:
My very first twirl on TV was a little shaky (BET Rip the Runway, remember that?), but I’ve been working on being at ease away from the computer and in front of a camera.
Watch above and let me know how I did.
Smootches!
*Also, stay tuned: I also taped for the Fabulous Life of Beyonce & Jay Z, Rihanna, and Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon. Keep an eye out;)
I’ve been loving our Bombshells of late, and Cindy from New York is no exception! See what she sent our way for today’s feature:
She says, “ I am Program Director at an elementary school and I love working with children.”
” However, I am just as passionate about fashion and “style” my friends for fun all of the time.”
” I would describe my style as “classy chic”.”
” I believe that a woman can be simultaneously sexy and classy.”
” I love bright colors and pairing unconventional pieces together.”
” Fashion should be fun!”
” I truly believe that some of the best looks come together accidentally.”
” I have learned how to dress my curvy body and I am thoroughly enjoying my fashion experience during this time of my life.”
Boom! You’re a Bombshell! You have a gorgeous shape and dress it well. I love that neon accented look.

Beauty isn’t really my bag, though I’m starting to dip my toe in it because it’s fun, attainable, and let’s be honest: who doesn’t like to shine?
I was invited to Net-a-Porter’s Beauty Anniversary yesterday, and in addition to taking snazzy pix like the one below, I was able to find out about a few fabulous products that I’ll have try out soon.
Aside from smelling delightful, Kilian perfume triumphs because of its elegant packaging. The black fragrance on the right comes equipped with its own velvet lined coffin, and the white bottle fits nicely into a snake adorned white clutch. The travel sized bottle is covered with a serpentine ring…and there’s really nothing I love more than products that do double duty! The owner of the brand is part of the Moet Hennessy family, which means he has an eye for all things luxe (I loved it that he spoke French to me when describing the scents, upon my request of course!). Apparently these fragrances have been an underground favorite of stars for years. When I Instagrammed about them, both Julissa Bermudez and Mashonda lamented that the secret was out! At any rate, all this fabulosity comes with a hefty price: bottles start at $245. But, everything is refillable, so once you’re done spritzing, you can reup for less, and hold on to the lovely accoutrements for years to come. Get ’em below:
Do black people tan? Apparently they do. Not to appear darker per se, but moreso to achieve that glowy, rejuvenated aura. I personally have never self tanned, but might give James Read products a try. I was particularly intrigued by the brand’s leave on $65 Sleep Mask Tan which is a cult favorite and works well on basically any skin type! Would you try it? If so, peruse the selection here.
Leighton Denny nail polish was conceived by a celebrity UK manicurist, and has been brought to the States with a bang. The heavily pigmented colors go on smooth and reportedly stay on for longer than a week! Colors are pretty cute and on trend for Spring with nude, yellow, and pool blue. I’ll have to give these a whirl. If you want to try it, too, purchase below:
I don’t do nearly enough beauty posts, but I might just get it started!
What do you think? And do you see anything you like?
*These fun pictures are the brainchild of Ucef Hanjani of Ceft and Company:
He basically created a room where the chair and bags were on the ceiling. We walked in and posed. Then the camera flipped us upside down. Cool, right?
Today we have Shakerra from Miami as our daily Bombshell:
She says, “I’m a teacher from Miami, Florida currently finishing my doctorate degree.”
” I would describe my style as flamboyant.”
“Even my wedding dress was unorthodox.”
” I love colors.”
” I think I dress very feminine…”
“… and trendy.”
” I’m not scared to take risks…”
“… or wear things that may look distasteful to others.”
Snazzy! Love that floral romper and all your Sophia Webster shoes!

You’re gonna love today’s Bombshell! Take a look at Malika from Yeadon, Pennsylvania:
She writes, “I’m a new stylist based in the Delaware/ Philadelphia area.”
“I would describe my style as “conservative edge”.
” I think it’s extremely important as a woman to always remain conservative & classy….”
“However, having fun & adding some edge to my wardrobe is a must!!”
” I like for people to look at my style and think that you can still be sexy without showing off your body.”
” The “edge” in my looks comes from my ability to experiment with different colors & patterns.”
” I have always been a risk taker when it comes to getting dressed.”
” I enjoy statement jewelry such as big necklaces & bracelets & I also enjoy sequins & all things “bling”.”
” Thank you so much!!!! “
Thank you! Your style is adorable, chic, and unexpected. And yes to keeping it cute while covered. Bombshell!

” What I love about fashion is that you’re able to experiment with colours and patterns in order to create an individual style that suits you.”
” However I love taking risks…”
“… as I feel it’s important sometimes to step out you comfort zone.”
” After all, you never know what you could pull off…”
“… unless you try. “
Hot! You have some great looks, here! Love your ensemble with the Zara embellished bowtie, and your crop top and skirt combo is bomb!
