We’re taking it back to the DMV today with Bombshell Dominique from DC:
She writes, “I started blogging (www.stilettoesq.com) about a month ago at the urge of some friends.”
“I’d describe my style as classic…”
“… with a twist of fun…”
“…I like to look effortlessly chic.”
” I hope to see my pics featured one day on fashionbombdaily!”
Well today’s your lucky day! I’d say you have more hits than misses. I’m not a huge fan of the cutoffs with tights, but I’m dying for your red pants and patterned pumps! That outfit is #boss.

So last week I was asked by Lincoln to join them as their special guest at Essence Magazine’s 5th Annual Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon . Though I had planned to be in Milan for Fashion Week, I’d heard the event was motivational and inspirational–basically something I wouldn’t want to miss! So at the end of London Fashion Week, I hopped on an 11 hour flight and popped into LA to see what was what:
To say the event was star studded would be an understatement. From Kelly Rowland to Jill Scott to Tasha Smith, the room was bubbling over with black stars.
I made my way around the room to say hey to a few:
In the Lincoln Lounge, I caught up with Jurnee Smollett, who looked sophisticated in pearly purple chiffon.
I also said hey to Love That Girl star and classmate Tatyana Ali. She was covering her dress a bit, but it was bananas. The cutouts were amazing!
Then inside the venue..
I caught up with cutie Tika Sumpter, who epitomized chic in black lace.
I complimented Jill Scott on her fly new hair style. The asymmetrical cut looks gorge, no?
And of course I had to say congratulations to two of the day’s honorees, including Paula Patton, the recipient of the Shining Star Award:
And Kerry Washington who won the Vanguard Award:
During her acceptance speech, Kerry Washington said, “There really is room for all of us. There really is a need for all of us.” The sense of appreciation and sisterhood in the room was palpable. I left feeling encouraged to continue to strive for the best in my industry and in life!
With all the fashion week madness I didn’t have much time to shop for my outfit, so decided to snag a piece from the Mary Katrantzou x Topshop collection during a lull in London:
I think your description is spot on. I love your red coat and those flat lace ups are to die!

Hey Hey!
Check out today’s Bombshell, the lovely Kelly from New York:
She says, “I would describe my style as girly..”
“…chic,”
“… fun…”
“…easygoing…”
“… and simple.”
” I love to just choose a specific item of clothing…”
” and build my outfit around it.”
“Everything usually just comes together effortlessly.”
Hey Kelly! You’re definitely a Bombshell! I love how you play with colors and have fun with accessories. Work those turbans!

Gorgeous! The pictures are lovely, but I wish I could see more head-to-toe looks. From what I can see, you look great!

” If I could shop anywhere in the world, it would be Julia Sarr Jamois’s closet.”
” Her style is simply amazing!”
Your style is pretty amazing, too! I think you gave an accurate description of your look: simple, colorful, and full of fun asymmetrical details. Very cute–and am I alone in seeing the Solange resemblance?

Closing out this fashionable week is Leonette from DC
She says, “If I had to describe my style, I would describe it as diverse.”
“… I don’t subscribe to any one fashion mantra and very frequently bounce from one category to another depending on my mood or what I got going on. I easily go from conservative/sophisticated, classic, simple, casual chic to funky, sexy, high end, vibrant and trendy.”
“… I love the idea of balancing conservative roles without compromising my love of fashion and style!”
” One of my goals with my blog is to inspire young women who have many responsibilities and have somehow lost themselves and fashion sense in their individual roles.”
” I don’t believe it’s a contradiction to be an excellent parent, ambitious professional and fashionista all at the same time!”
“…I started a personal style and lifestyle blog, Milk and Honeeyz (www.milkandhoneeyz.blogspot.com), as an outlet for me to share my personal style and experiences as a young mother, attorney, single woman and fashion lover.”
You have a very diverse style! My favorite might have to be your striped skirt and colorful top combo. Tres chic!

Oscar de la Renta is very glamorous, so I incorporated a bit of glamour with a vintage crystal necklace and Alexis Bittar earrings. And of course I slipped on a beret for warmth (I love berets. This one didn’t quite match, but I didn’t care).
I stacked everything in my Givenchy, and was on my way.
Eh ben, voila! My last Style Diary of Fashion Week (phew!). What do you think?
