Fashion Bombshell of the Day: Karlandra from Bermuda

Today we’re taking a trip to the Caribbean abroad with the fab Karlandra from Bermuda:

The Digicel executive and fashion editor for Stylebermuda.com writes, “My style is constantly evolving and I’ve 100% embraced the idea that fashion is all about experimenting.”

” While I have a love for timeless, classic pieces – the reality is, I’m an urban girl at heart and love to keep it funky!”

“I’m primarily inspired by Hip Hop culture – old and new – and I’ll base an outfit around a pair of sneakers just as quickly as I’ll rock the highest of heels.”

“… Like most women, my accessories are my go-to pieces and are typically focal points in my looks.”


” I tend to zero in on statement items that can transform a look quickly, so it’s where I’ll splurge when shopping.”


” I’m never afraid to try something new when it comes to my style. If it works, it works. And if not, I just change clothes… and go.”

Represent, Karlandra! From casual to glam, you work it well. SN: you and Lil Kim might finally inspire me to get those Michael Antonio Pumps. Love.

Claire’s Life: The Wendy Williams Show and Aftershow

Hey!
So yesterday morning I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the Wendy Williams Show!

Wendy typically talks to bloggers and other members of the press as part of her ‘Aftershow,’ and I was granted the wonderful opportunity to chat with the media maven about her favorite stores, shoe brands for women with larger feet, and her experience playing ‘Gail’ in Think Like a Man.
Take a look:

How did I do?
Afterwards I snapped a quick pic with Wendy:

Then hightailed it home to get back to blogging!

For the occasion, I embraced prints in a Kenzo graphic print dress offset by Alexander Wang Joan Pumps:


It was a little chilly, so I threw my old trusty Diesel jean jacket over my shoulders.

I accessorized my ensemble with a Jenny Dayco pyramid ring, bangles, and a Noir Rose Gold Claw ring.

And put my Iphone and wallet in a neon accented Cooperative Mixed Media bag:

And there you have it.
What do you think?

Wendy Williams’s show is so much fun! I’d highly encourage you all to pop by if you ever find yourself in New York city. The show tapes pretty early, but it’s a party from start to finish. See about tickets at www.wendyshow.com.
Smootches!

Somehow I knew the dress would work!

Fashion Bombshell of the Day: Kimberlee from North Carolina

We’re taking our Bombshell feature down south with Kimberlee from Raleigh, North Carolina:

She says, “I’m a curvy girl [and] a lover of all things fashion and beauty.”

“… I would describe my style as “classic with an edge.””


” I love my clothing to have a tailored and polished look, but I like to add an “edge” by incorporating embellishments, color, or prints.”

” I started my blog and YouTube channel as a way to document my style evolution.”

“… I enjoy finding ways to add a fashionable touch to my overall simple looks.”


” I am always open to new concepts, as long as I remain true to my personal sense of style, and of course, have fun.”

“Please check out my blog at www.thenaturalfashionista.blogspot.com.”

“Thanks for your consideration.”

You’re cute as a button, and I love your hair! I also appreciate your use of color and accessories.

Fashion Bombshell of the Day: Ashley from Australia

Today we have yet another international Bombshell. Take a look at Ashley from Australia:

She says, “My style is never defined by trends, it’s defined by individual pieces of clothing or standout pieces of jewelry that I fall in love with.

” My love for vintage keeps me on the hunt for an item that not only incorporates my curves, but that also has an individual take on a trend.”

” I adore black due to its ease in co-ordination, so I can lean towards 90’s grunge.”


“I also love an abstract or tribal print, sometimes even some floral, leather, studs and lace, a pop of bright colour and of course a statement necklace.”


” This combined with my love for tailored pieces and lady-like refined glam leaves my style forever changing on a daily basis.”

” ‘The only constant is change.’ My style certainly lives by this mantra!”

Cute, simple, and chic! Your style isn’t over the top, but it’s certainly sophisticated. It works!

Claire’s Life: Talking Style and The New Generation of Female MCs with Trace Urban TV

Hey Hey!
A few weeks ago Trace Urban TV asked me to comment on the stylish proclivities of the new generation of female MCs, including Azealia Banks, Kreayshawn, Brianna Perry, and Iggy Azalea. I honestly had to do just a wee bit of homework on a couple of them, but I was delightfully surprised by their sartorial and musical talents.

Take a look at the video, which also features commentary from Rick Ross, Glennisha Morgan, Jermaine Hall (the EIC of Vibe Magazine), and more:

What do you think?
I’m wearing Dior sunnies, a CC Skye necklace, and a Helmut Lang Era blazer.

Fashion Bombshell of the Day: Shalini from India

Since we had such spirited comments with last week’s Bangalore based Bombshell, I decided it was high time we featured yet another Indian stylista. Today’s submission is from Shalini, a blogger for www.stylishbynature.com:

She writes,”I buy in luxury boutiques but also in casual stores.

My goal is to show you how we can be beautiful, trendy, stylish in every sense, pondering the purchase according to the latest trends of the moment !”

” I hope to be a source of inspiration for everyone who likes fashion and those who want to embrace this world.”


“My blog, Stylish-By-Nature is a fashion and style blog for all like-minded people who believe that style runs in their blood and is as important as breathing.”

” You will find lifestyle, street style, vintage, designer couture collections, affordable fashion, product reviews; everything that can be useful to your image.”

” Look forward to more on fashion, food, fitness, fun, friends and flavors of life.”


I’m looking forward to checking it out! I love your color blocking outfit, as well as the turquoise number with gold jewelry. My only suggestion (if I may) would be to smile a little! But hey, what do I know.
