Today’s Bombshell is blogger Yvonne from Sudbury, Ontario:
The native Nigerian writes, “My style is anything…”
“…that compliments my body.”
“…I’m into vintage wares..”
“… and african prints.”
” I also love shoes that stand out.”
That African printed jumpsuit is cute! See more of Yvonne’s style at Thekaleidoscopian.com.

Ola! On Day 5 of NYFW, it was all about presentations for me, including stops by Laquan Smith’s Fall 2013 collection and Alice + Olivia’s showing downtown. I decided to calm it on the prints for the day and just wear classic black and white, adding interest with a fringed Thakoon dress and a contrast collar Rag & Bone blazer (can you tell how much I love R&B?)
The outfit was pretty understated, so I slipped on a pair of statement shoes (these DSquared Raso Boots to be exact).
In between shows, I stopped at Cookshop, a fun little restaurant on the West Side, conveniently located close to a lot of off site venues.
Then I was off (expect to see this Theory Cassius coat a lot. It’s warm and sorta goes with everything!)
In the midst of Fashion Week and Grammy madness, we still have to bring you our regular features! Take a look at today’s Bombshell, Nikki from Austin, Texas:
” I’d like to say I just wear what feels right for the day…”
“… but I’m that girl that sits in the closet in the morning for hours trying to put something together.”
” After over complicating my outfit…”
“…I usually scale everything down and these effortless looks come to life.”
Casually cute, and your hair is gorgeous!

This time we went backstage to interview Tracy Reese about her Fall 2013 collection, and also asked her to offer a few words of advice to upcoming designers. For those who want to break into fashion, check it out for a few inspiring words:

The weather is NYC is simply not cooperating with fashion week, though show attendees are making the most of it, splashing color and patterns onto wintry looks. With a strong focus on outerwear and cold weather accessories, ladies and gents have managed to look rather stylish:
Check out our best picks from day 3:
It’s all about a great coat and shoes! These two young ladies looked lovely in blue colored jackets and metallic heels.
This young man simply wasn’t playing around! He pulled a turtleneck over his face for extra warmth.
These two Fashion Bomb readers punched up black looks with neon separates, studded boots, and coated jeans.
Layering is oh so essential: these ladies places skirts over pants and chunky scarves over multiple sweaters.
Plays on proportions made these black looks interesting.
This diva worked with different colors of houndstooth, yet tempered her look down with a black coat and boots.
Talk about a pair of stylish snow ready boots! This young stylist looked ready for anything in white and light brown tones.
Black on black always works.
A stud covered leather jacket uplifted a pleated white maxi skirt.
Lastly, while designer Tracy Reese called a car, industry veteran Bethann Hardison smiled for our cameras in a furry hat and loose fit jeans.
What did you think of our latest Real Style installment?
I covered up in a Helmut Lang for Intermix jacket, and offered my interpretation of reasonable footwear in a pair of Altuzarra booties (they weren’t reasonable—I went home limping a couple hours later).
Happy Saturday!
So on Day 2 of Fashion Week, NYC was walloped by Winter Storm Nemo, which dumped loads of freezing rain (then snow) onto the city. Since my first show of the day, Sally LaPointe, was at Pier 57, I knew I had to bundle up with my All Saints Wilkin Down jacket and Zara pants.
After the show, I texted an Uber cab to pick me up and take me to my next destination.
Haven’t heard of Uber? It’s an on demand luxury car service, with stations in San Francisco, LA, Atlanta, New York, and more. Basically you text Uber an address (or send a request via the Uber app)…
… and a car comes and picks you up within minutes.
Uber charges your credit card on file, so no money is exchanged (tip is included). I’ve been using Uber like a champ all of fashion week, as I have a lot of offsite shows. It works like a dream!
At any rate, I had my Uber driver drop me off by Lincoln Center so I could eat and blog a bit.
What do you think?
Stay tuned for more instances from my fashion week adventures, along with street style.

She writes, “[I am a] curvy lady who is passionate about fancy clothes and creating clothes. Check me out here: www.janetdolce.com“
“My style is very conservative.”
“…I love tailored blazers, coats and trousers, and I’m always in heels.”
” For my curvier body type, I always looked to Kim Kardashian and Beyonce for Style Inspiration…”
“… but this is when I realized I was limiting myself to what I thought would work for me.”
” So now it’s more conservative with a touch of punk rock in it.”
” I do follow trends because for me that is living in the present…”
“… the way I play around with whats trending is what individualizes me.”
“I dont shop for just anything.”
” Some of my pieces I have had for years and just bring them out when I missed them and add a touch new to it.”
“I love fashion from the 50’s and often dress up to feel elegant.”
OK! I think your style description is spot on. I love your conservative looks, particularly your white top and black leather pants.
