I decided we’d have a bit of Friday fun with both a Bomber and a Bombshell. Today’s lucky lad is Antioné from Richmond, Virginia:

The self proclaimed President of the ‘Passion for Fashion Club‘ writes, “I’m an obsessed twentie something fashion student who is heavily influenced by Kanye West (brother in my head) lol.”

” I am also obsessed with Riccardo Tisci (who is the lead designer for Givenchy) and the brilliant Tom Ford.”

“My style I would say is genderless. A year ago my style was very androgynous, and my style now is more ubernite meets concrete jungle walker.”


“It’s more refined in a way.”


” In general I’m a simple dude, so I don’t like a lot of pieces that are fussy.”


“I wear things that I feel good in, and to me that is what fashion is all about.”

“I believe that style should be gender less, everyone wants to stay in a box, and that to me becomes a bit boring and contrived.”

“You can find me blogging my heart away over at Kidfashion85.tumblr.com. And I also launched my very own YouTube channel: antionematisse, related to all things fashion.”


I’ll have to check you out! I see you have a thing for cheetah print. I’m not mad, my brother!

Today we’re featuring Camden, New Jersey native, Lakia:

She says, “My style is a lot of things..“

“… I’m laid back…”

“…and at the moment, I’m loving comfortable, baggy…”

“… “girl of the earth” clothing…”


“… But don’t get me wrong, I can put on a fitted outfit anytime (when I’m not feeling too bloated!).”


” Anyhow, I make my own clothing and am the owner of Sincere Jones (www.facebook.com/sincere.jones0)..”


“… I love all things dealing with fashion and love the fact that I can switch my look at the drop of a dime (rocker/sexy/bohemian/classic/etc).”

” To make your own clothing means NO ONE will ever look like you and I love being a trend setter..”


” I move to my own beat and love every minute of it..”


Work it! I’m partial to more fitted silhouettes so like your multicolored bodycon and colorblocked Mary Janes the best.

We headed to sunny California for today’s Bombshell! Check out Shanise from LA:

She writes, “I’ve been following and reading your blog for a while now and I’ve built up enough courage to finally submit some pictures.”

“I don’t know how to pin point a definitive style for myself, but one thing I do know is that I love playing with vibrant colors & I love blazers!”


“I enjoy fashion as a hobby.”


“A hobby I’m very consumed by daily, looking at different personal styles, finding ways to stretch a buck, and playing with pieces that I can wear several ways.”

” I blog for fun at www.snazzysavvyshanise.com.”


” I hope you like what I have to share and I hope to be featured.”


I love a good blazer, too! I think your description was spot on–can’t wait to check out your blog.

Shout out to the New Yorkers braving Hurricane Sandy! Sure, you might be getting walloped by wind, but hopefully Empire state native Ida can lift your spirits:

The Atlanta resident writes,” My style is pretty much renegade.“

“… [I have] no commitment to any particular genre of style…”


“[My style] is a culmination of everything I encounter.”

” I could be in a hoodie one day and the next day day in something whimsical.”


” I like to clash the titans…”


“…mixing the old with the new, chic with grunge…”


” Boy with girl…”


“… and wrong with right.”


“ My blogs are Naturallyfreshblvd.com and Hotpeeznbutta.com, which is more focused on natural hair.”


Ok! I can see you’re definitely a renegade stylista who doesn’t follow the rules. I applaud your confidence, and love your printed shirt, bell bottom jeans, and Fulani earrings (and hand over that leopard print top!).

Take a look at today’s Bombshell, Gugu from South Africa:

The New York resident sent in an e-mail titled, “Not Another Plus Size Fashion Bombshell,” saying, “The plus in my size serves as an added blessing.”

“… Learning to understand my body and accepting it for what it is has been a long fascinating journey.”


“… I have thoroughly enjoyed the road to discovering myself.”


“… There’s always an element of surprise there, especially as I am becoming a woman my future kids will meet one day.”

“Since I constantly evolve so does my taste which influences my personal style.”


“I do not know how to categorize myself stylistically, however the one thing I have tried to maintain over the years is good presentation.“

” I thrive to look polished.”

“I never thought I’d write to be featured because I have never thought of myself as a style connoisseur of any sort. However, since my debut on Instagram @StyleGoneGugu a few weeks ago, I have been receiving a ton of encouragement from friends and peers as well as my followers. Perhaps one day soon, when I have an actual blog, I can [resubmit].”

Oh Gugu, I’m gaga over your style! Your looks are chic, scintillating, and super flattering! Can’t wait to follow you on Instragram @StyleGoneGugu. Work it, mama!

We’re ending this week with T Dot stylista, Melissa from Toronto:

She says, “I am a personal style blogger at lavie-amonavis.blogspot.com.”

“I wouldn’t say that I have a particular style, sometimes I like to be a bit edgy…”


“… and sometimes a bit more casual…”


” It all depends on my mood…”


“… but no matter what it’s always chic.”


” Now that it’s the fall/winter season, I can’t wait to add some chunky knits, cool jackets, and riding boots to my wardrobe.”

Gorgeous photography! Gimme that leather sleeve jacket!

Today’s Bombshell is Nigerian born Baltimore resident Karima:

She writes, “You featured me as a fashion bombshell a little over a year ago.”

“I am writing to be featured once again.”


“... I would like to show your readers how my blog and style has matured from my last time being featured, now that I am in my early 20s.”

“I created No Dress Code (www.dresscodezero.blogspot.com) to blog about fashion, hair, and how I incorporate both in my everyday life.”

“… My style has not changed since my last feature but instead it is a more refined version.”


” I would describe my style as mix between classic and contemporary.”


” I believe in minimalism.”


” ‘When in doubt, less is more…’ that’s my motto…”


” I apply that to fashion as well.”


I love your motto–sometimes the most simple, refined looks have the most impact. And I definitely see an evolution since your first feature (see it here). Great looks!

A few months ago, the kind editors over at Glamour got in touch, asking to include me in a feature on cozy winter sweaters. I wasn’t sure when it would come out, but was juiced to see my mug smiling back at me in their November 2012 issue!

Yep, that’s me, representing for the busty girls on page 104. If you like, pick up an issue. It’s on newsstands (it has Taylor Swift on the cover).
Thanks to all of you who have already sent notes. It’s always exciting to get love from a super popular National Magazine (Whoop!).
Thanks to Lauren over at Glamour for thinking of me;)
Smootches!

Today’s Bombshell, Arleene, hails from Hollywood, Florida:

She writes, “I think of my style as chic, casual, sexy…”

“and fun.”

“…The one thing I love about fashion is that we can wear whatever… we want.”


” It’s about having your own personal style and not just following trends.”


” I love getting all dressed up as well as being most comfortable.”


” I love high heels…”

“… but it’s not everyday that I can just throw them on…”

“… [so] I wear a nice casual but feminine outfit.”

“… I love that I can express how I’m feeling and my personality with what I wear.”

Your style is simple and cute!

Today we’re going to Houston, Texas (baby) with Bombshell Marnita:

She says, “My style is “something old, something new”.”

” I really enjoy thrifting and combining my findings with something contemporary to create a fashion masterpiece.”


“… There is awesome apparel and accessories at the thrift stores I frequent in Houston and I don’t believe you have to break the bank to be fashionable or trendy.”


“… Designer brands can be expensive but I think it’s all about how a person wears an outfit that speaks volumes.”


” All of my thrift store haul pieces fall under $10…”

“…and I feel I pair them well enough to still pull off a modern look.”


” I took the Shakespeare quote, “A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet…” and kind of changed it around a bit: “A cute outfit by any other name would still be as cute!””

Interesting axiom! At any rate, your style is jazzy…I like it! My favorite look may have to be your green and orange colorblocking moment.
