So I don’t have the fabulous Marta McAdams with me to take my photo, though Valentine Avoh did snap a pic of my outfit before yesterday’s D & G Spring 2012 show:
Aside from corseted dresses, Dolce is known for their copious leopard print, so I pulled on an Essendi leopard print button down with a pleated leather number from Zara. I finished my look off with my staples: YSL Tribtoos, my Melody Ehsani “Fly’ ring, Dolce & Gabbana aviators, and a pop of Ruby Woo.
Check out a few more twitpics from my day:

Stay tuned for more snapshots! Maybe Valentine wouldn’t mind snapping more of my outfits…
I decided to close out this fantastic week with dapper Kaine from Texas:
He says, “I believe my style embodies what it means to be the modern gentlemen. “
” I like things to appear clean, neat, and organized.”
” The modern gent tells a story of who he is through his garments. Your wardrobe allows you to tell a story of who you are before you even open your mouth.”
“… I use my style to show my creative side. “
“Red is my favorite color; I am the co- founder of MyBlackCoffee.com, a website that provides political coverage infused with music in an effort to attract younger people to informed voting and politics. The website colors are red and black. I like anything that complements each other, whether it is colors or patterns. “
“…I am a graduating senior at University of Houston, and a frequent traveler to the East Coast.”
Smart, preppy, fly. Ladies, what do you think?

We’re bringing another Bombshell before the Fashion Bomb firing squad. Today’s courageous stylista is Erica from New York:
She says, “Aside from my 9-5, I am a Freelance Makeup Artist & Hair Stylist”
“…. I am also the Editor of a beauty & fashion blog, The Glamorous Gleam www.theglamorousgleam.com.”
” I’m pretty much laid back, dress according to my mood and I consider my style to be spontaneous.”
“.. I wear a lot of neutral shades and spice it up with a pop of color here and there, but I love to accessorize with my makeup, bags and shoes.”
” Oh and let’s not forget a funky pair of earrings!”
” I feel that you can dress up any outfit with the right accessories, beat that face and you’re good to go.”
I couldn’t agree more. And I’m gonna need info on….all your lipsticks. What say you, opinionated Bombshells?

If you follow me on Twitter, you already know I’ve been having a fantastic time at London Fashion Week!
From shows to parties to Real Style, the UK has a lot to offer, and is definitely a must stop for any fashionista.
Here are a few highlights from my short trip:
A few days ago, after hitting up the Topshop Unique and Peter Jensen shows (reviews on Vogue.it), I went to the Mulberry party where I ran into Kelis. The consummate fashionista is in town performing, and was attending a few shows during the day. She admired my Peace Images Fandango earrings (I first wore them here), then agreed to take a pic. She was super sweet!
The party itself had an English seaside theme, replete with stuffed animals, ice cream, and fun hors d’oevres like fish & chips, hamburgers, and hot dogs.
My friends and I took a quick pic with a few new animal friends….
Then we called it a night!
The next day I attended the Burberry show (review to come):
The high wattage show took place at Kensington Gardens in an expansive venue replete with sky lights:
Apparently Kanye West was in the house, though I couldn’t spy him from my vantage point (I was in the nosebleed section. Lol).
At any rate, I was super excited to see Trav & Josh of Street Etiquette afterwards:
And that does it!
I update my own Tumblr www.xoxoclaire.com pretty frequently with pix of what I’m up to, so check it out! Also, follow me on Twitter for the blow-by-blow.
I’m off to Milan tomorrow. Can’t wait!
Smootches!
She says, “I’m 31-years-old from Philly and I’m in the Armed Forces.”
“I love to travel and this year alone your site has helped me with my vacation wardrobe.”
“… I used to be scared of colors especially with my make-up but your weekend make-up ideas has me jumping out of the box.”
” I don’t have the words to describe my look, I didn’t really know I had style…”
“..until my friends started asking for advice and I started shopping for them. “
Love your colorful trapeze dress with orange flats! I probably would have worn something else underneath that lattice knit sweater, but all in all your looks have lots of potential! What do you think?

Today’s Bombshell on this fabulous Monday is Chandia from Florida:
She says, “I have a Bachelors in Political Science and a Masters in Criminal Justice.”
“… I am currently a law student and a full time fashionista!”
” I am the CEO of ItsGood2bDia Inc. where I offer Fashion Consulting and Image Management services.”
“… I also contribute columns as a freelance writer for various publications.”
“… I love all things glamour and I would define my style as feminine, edgy…”
“… and bold. “
A girl who loves animal prints is a girl after my own heart. What do you think of Chandia’s style?

“I call my style Naturally Glam because looking good & feeling good comes naturally:)”
“I’m a single mother of 3 girls so I have to be very conscious of how I spend money.”
“… In short, I like to look great but on a budget.”
” Although I love designer clothes I do believe you can look just as amazing in budget friendly items.”
H&M is one of my favorite go-to stores for a quick glam me up.”
Alright! Based on her looks, would you check out her blog?

For my last day of shows, I went with my go-to combination of sass & chic with a pencil skirt and blazer:
If you want to look pulled together in a crunch, a blazer in any color plus a chic skirt is an easy outfit. So I pulled on a vintage red blazer, a Three Dots tank top, and striped skirt from the Pleasure Doing Business collection.
Yesterday was absolutely nuts for me in terms of work and shows, so I brought my laptop with me and stashed it in my Rachel Roy Japan Tote.
Today we’re taking a detour to the left coast with Bombshell Melissa from Oakland, California:
She says, “I am in my final semester at CSULB studying graphic design and fashion merchandising. I’m interning with Chelsea Lately’s Wardrobe at NBC Universal.”
“… Because I see potential in all clothing and style, my personal style is a mix of many things.”
