We’re ending this week with blogger Lola from Richmond, Virginia:
The writer for www.lolaalamode.com says, “ Honestly, my style describes me.”
“Romantic,”
“Bright…”
“Chic”
“Random…”
“…and a bit edgy.”
“… I channel Kim Kardashian…”
“… mixed with a little flare of Rihanna.”
Cute! You have some great pieces, particularly that maxi dress and your ruched mini. Chic, simple…I like! See more of Lola’s style at www.lolaalamode.com.

So today we’re having a Fashion Bomber and a Fashion Bombshell. Check out today’s male submission, Marques from Omaha, Nebraska:
He says, “If I had to describe my style I would say it is simply Bold.”
“I don’t really have a set style…”
” I don’t think I ever really want a set style.”
” I think it’s good to mix it up.”
“I dress off my vibe for the day.”
“I like to mix high fashion and with my Urban style.”
“I don’t really like to follow trends. I try to create my own because I feel that I am my own Brand.”
Definitely different! You certainly march to the beat of your own drum. Um…Where can I get that Big Worm tank? Need it!

It takes a lot of courage to submit your picture online. I hope you guys keep that in mind as we take a look at today’s brave Bombshell, Key from South Carolina:
She says, “I’m a United States Air Force member full time and a part time artist and poet.”
“When I take off my uniform, I’m a totally different Key.”
Patriotic, pretty, and stylish? You can’t beat that with a bat!

” My style depends on my mood and my feelings.”
” I always dress as if I am going to run into my worst enemy or my ex lol!”

She says, “ I am a Visual Merchandiser and Style Blogger.”
“ You featured my fellow blogger Dave earlier this spring and I thought it was time I show the other stylish voice behind Off-Glass.com.”
” I would definitely consider my style to be original, powerful and effortlessly chic.”
“ I love to play with color and prints…”
“…. and did I mention I’m a sucker for accessories?”
“Hope you enjoy!”
Your looks are certainly original. I think you described yourself well. I love that printed sweater/shawl and shorts combo.

Happy Saturday!
So last night I trekked from Brooklyn to Harlem to attend an event celebrating Laz Alonso as the new celebrity ambassador for American Airlines’s African-American focused website, BlackAtlas.com. Normally on Fridays I’m totally depleted from the week…and a one hour ride up to 125th seemed more than daunting. But I put on a fresh face and went. I’m glad I motivated!
Loads of colorful folk came out to celebrate Laz’s new appointment, including TV host Tanika Ray, Jennifer Williams of Basketball Wives fame, Robert Townsend, Al Reynolds, BJ Coleman, Phillip Bloch, and more. With a performance by Melanie Fiona, it was definitely a dope night!

But of course I busied myself taking loads of Real Style for your viewing enjoyment:
Iman looked lovely in all vintage everything, including a flowered frock and a belt that once belonged to her father.
This dapper gentleman exuded Harlem chic in a tie, driver’s cap, and rolled up chinos.
How hot does Chasity look? The model divulged she was wearing a design by Ms. Tina Knowles. Work!
Ebony Magazine editor Janell always looks chic! And I loved her friend Robert’s rolled camouflage pants and loafers.
Brandice of Harlem’s Fashion Row looked crisp in a wide lapel white jacket, jeans, and pink stilettos.
My homegirl Demetria Lucas from the blog A Belle in Brooklyn stays fly. She flaunted a new hair color along with a floral printed dress, peach pumps, and her signature: a Louis Vuitton bag.
Solio and Beau showcased pieces from Beau’s button laden line. Like? See more at www.beaumccall.com.
Tracey looked summer ready in a purple dress and gold accents.
I couldn’t help but take a picture of Southern gentleman Renaldo, who boldly embraced Ikat shorts and high striped socks.
And Isis was lovely in animal print and wide legged pants.
Of course no Real Style run down would be complete without cameos from Fashion Bomb readers! There were quite a few in the house, including Ashley, an intern at Vibe Magazine. How cute is her dress?
Kim also came up to say hey, looking party perfect in a blue dress and black sandals.
As for me…!
I can’t overstate how much I’m loving rompers and jumpsuits this summer. I’m a dress kind of gal (mainly for the ease of getting ready) and to me, jumpsuits offer a cool, unexpected alternative. For my night uptown, I slipped on a black Catherine Malandrino one piece, and made it all pop with a Cashhimi clutch (yes, I’m loving them right now). Clad in my jumpsuit, I bopped around the party taking pix, noshing on hors d’oevres, and saying hiii to friends:
See lovely Laz travel the world and share his insights at www.BlackAtlas.com.

I don’t think we’ve ever had a sister duo submit for Bombshell of the Day, but I figured…why not?
Jessica and Janelle from New York shop together, grew up together, and blog together…so why not submit together?
The minds behind www.GIRLSOFFFIFTH.com write, “It’s hard to put our style into a few words.”
“Jessica is known for buttoned up collars…”
“… and high hem lines”
“Janelle prefers a slightly more undone and minimalist approach…”
“… and is a sucker for a plunging back or neckline.”
” We have very eclectic taste and are attracted to a lot of the same pieces whether edgy, bohemian or classic.”
” The difference is in the styling.”
Gorgeous! Lovely! Every look is on point. Check out their blog at www.girlsofffifth.com and follow them on Facebook here and Twitter @Girls_Off_Fifth.

We’re keeping it in the Northeast for today’s Bombshell, Melissa from New Jersey:
She says, “I consider my style to be easy, everyday chic.“
” I LOVE flats! Is that weird?”
” Most girls feel sexy in heels, but I feel sexy when I’m most comfortable.”
” Wear what you want!”
” Who cares what people think?”
” I think I’m pretty damn fabulous, and that’s all that matters!”
” Be a leader, not a follower! “
Ok! I’m getting everyday chic as well. I love your patterned pants! Cute!
