We’re continuing our Bombshell fabulosity with Jillian from Miami:

The fly Floridian writes, “I’m an attorney by trade, which means that a lot of my wardrobe involves suits and business separates.”

“… But when I’m off the clock, I live in jeans, heels, and pretty dresses.”

” I recently started a personal style blog where I showcase outfits that I love and explore different ways to look good, both in and out of the workplace.”

” My style philosophy is pretty simple – I wear what I love and what makes me feel pretty.”

” Usually, that involves dresses in classic silhouettes with an unconventional element like color or draping.”

” I’m also a sucker for anything with bows or ruffles involved.”

” Hopefully your readers like my style and visit my blog at www.nusophisticate.com.”

Very cute! Your style is simple and sophisticated. And I love that orange dress!
What do you ladies think?

Wonderland magazine editor Julia Sarr-Jamois is having a fabulous 2012 so far. After ending last year nabbing a spot on Vogue‘s best dressed list, she made a splash this month at Men’s Fashion Week in Milan walking in the Alberta Ferretti demi-couture show alongside fellow it-girls Solange Knowles and Oroma Elewa. It seems the street style guru has no intention of slowing down in 2012 with her latest project as the face for Tibi’s Spring 2012 campaign.

Past ambassadors for the Tibi brand include socialite Olivia Palermo. It’s wonderful to see a woman of color representing the brand–someone who is beautiful, and a true tastemaker in the fashion industry.

I think she looks amazing! What do you think?

Happy Wednesday!
Hope you managed to survive the SOPA strike. Basically, the government is looking to pass a law that could shut down websites like ours, for posting content to movies, TV shows, music, etc. It infringes upon bloggers rights to create and have fun atmospheres for you guys. The few hour strike today could be indefinite if this law gets passed. Read more about it and protest with us at www.sopastrike.com.
At any rate, the strike is now over, so I give you today’s Bombshell, Cuera from Cleveland:

She says, “I’m a Small Business Owner, Fashion Blogger, Jewelry Designer, Stylist…”

” and a Freelance Fashion Writer for examiner.com.”

“My philosophy is that anyone can look like a million without spending a million.”

“I shop everywhere.”

” I believe in buying less but investing in quality clothes that will last forever. “

I do, too! I love how you play with patterns and bold silhouettes. And give me that bag!

Happy Tuesday!
Today’s Bombshell is designer Mali Romeo aka Mali Ro from Brooklyn, NY:

She writes, “My style is definitely my own.”

“… it’s a reflection of my mood.”

“… sometimes I’m really classic…”

“…or really bold…”

“… or both!”


“… I’d like to think that I’m always dressed for the occasion.”


” I’m also a tall and slim girl, (I’m 5’9), so I always dress to compliment my height and shape.”


” If you noticed I rarely wear any jewelry.”


“… maybe a nice watch, bracelet or a necklace, if the outfit calls for it–that’s about it!”


Mali is super modest and didn’t mention her clothing line, so I’ll go ahead and do it for her! See some of her work at www.maliromeo.com.

Happy MLK Day!
I’m about to enjoy the holiday, but first, I give you second time Bombshell, Taylor from North Carolina:

Taylor was first featured in 2010, and it seems her style has changed quite a bit.

She says, “I would describe my style as casual, glam-rock, and androgynous.”

” I love simplicity…”

“… but I also don’t mind thinking outside of the box!”

” I’m an eighteen-year-old senior in high school.”

“… and although we have to wear uniforms, I refuse to just stick to the regular ol’ collar shirt and khaki’s.”

” I am also a big fan of grunge fashion and I don’t believe in dressing straight off the mannequin.”

” Bargain shopping and thrift shopping excite me and I have even made my own pieces (like this black dress).”

“I am currently striving to be a fashion stylist for both runway and for celebrities.”

Well, you’ve certainly changed a lot over the years! You definitely have a more unique look, from your hair down to your shoe choices.

What do you guys think of Taylor’s new steeze? See her first Bombshell post here.

Happy Friday!
Today’s Bombshell is Kristen from Brooklyn:

She says, “My style is very eclectic…”

“…daring…”

“… and sometimes very simple.”

” I don’t think too hard…”

“… or try to recreate a celeb’s style.”

” When I walk in my closet, I find one key piece….. “

“and attempt to find complimentary wardrobe choices.”

“See more of my style at www.GoldLabeler.com“

Hey Kristen! You certainly have a look all your own, and I think your describe your style to a tee! I wasn’t on board with every outfit submitted, but I definitely think you have more hits than misses. Cute!

Hey Hey!
I’m giving you our Bombshell a leetle early, as I’m jetting off for a day of relaxation and fun. Hopefully Gaynelle from LA will keep you entertained:

The owner of LA’s Philthy Ragz Boutique was actually submitted by her daughter, who reads daily:

Her daughter says, “Even though my mother is a bit shy, I know she secretly would love to be a Bombshell of the Day!!”


“…She had so many options to post…”

“…I didn’t even know where to begin!”

“…She owns a boutique in Southern California”

“I’d be uber excited and proud if she were featured!!”

Well, there you go! I can totally see why you wanted her featured. She has flair and style, and I adore her hair.

What do you guys think of Gaynelle?

Hey Hey!
So it’s my birthday! While I plan to celebrate with a mani at Polish Bar of Brooklyn, lite shopping, and a birthday dinner, the festivities truly started earlier this week with a whirlwind trip to LA to meet and greet world champion runner and Olympic hopeful Jason Richardson.

Bevy Smith, Syreeta of Black Sports Online, and more gathered to meet the Nike Athlete, see what he is about, and support him in the pursuit of his Olympic dreams. Our first stop was to meet Jason, and observe what he could do on the track.

And at night, we attended a dinner to toast to his accomplishments.

Many tastemakers stopped by, including Angel of Concrete Loop, fabulous jewelry designer Melody Ehsani, Marie Denee of the Curvy Fashionista, and Taye Hansberry of Stuff She Likes:

It was a fun trip and I LOVE LA. I”ll have to make it out there more often.

To learn more about Jason Richardson, check out his website at www.jasonrichardsononline.com and follow him on Twitter @JaiRich.

Smootches!

Today’s fabulous Fashion Bombshell is Courtney from ATL:

She writes, “My style is a representation of my personality…”

“… and describes who I am.”

” My style is one-of-a-kind, simple, elegant…”

“… classy, sexy, fun…”

“… and my style makes me feel comfortable in my own skin.”

“I OWN my style!”

Ok, Courtney!! I’d say you have a flawless dress game. Focus on bringing a bit of your nighttime pizazz to your daytime looks.

Today’s Bombshell is Shay from New Jersey:

She says, “My style is definitely very risky, as a plus size woman I still wear my shirt tucked in, I wear shorts and short skirts or dresses.”

“… Fashion is not meant to be limited by the price on your clothes tag.”

” I think my style reflects my moods.”

” I wear what I like, even if its a couple season old.”

” My style is very much me…loud and out there, fun and colorful.”

” I take a lot of pride when I get dressed, and I hope others see that as well.”

Alright! I’d say you have some hits, some misses. Be careful of fit, especially with pants. What do you guys think?
