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:

The two are in town care of Tumblr, and have been shooting fun style diaries all over town. Stay tuned to their blog (www.streetetiquette.com) and their tumblr (www.streetetiquette.tumblr.com) for the scoop.

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!

Today’s Bombshell is Renata from Philly:

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?

H&M is one of my favorite go-to stores for a quick glam me up.”

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.

Kindess is always fashionable!
I made my way to a café near Lincoln Center and got to typing:

I ordered a shrimp salad from Marcus Samuelsson’s pop up street food shop.

In terms of accessories, I rocked with a pair of Melody Ehsani’s See Me Parrot Swarovski Earrings…

And kept it classically Claire with my Melody Ehsani I’m Fly ring , Jessie Adore bangles….

…black YSL’s and a black bag.

And there you have it! My final Style Diary for Mercedes Benz Spring 2012 Fashion Week:

I wish I could bring photographer Marta McAdams with me to Europe, but alas I can’t. So my twitpics will have to do:)

Hope you guys enjoyed seeing my Fashion Week style.

Smootches!
*Thanks Nina!

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.”

” I can be very chic, vintage and eclectic.”

“… I love shopping trends as well as thrift.”

Sure, black on black is always chic, but I’m a Caribbean girl and love my color! So I uplifted a simple black American Apparel top and BCBG skirt with a vintage rainbow colored poncho, belted at the waist. I’m a lover of bling, so piled on a series of gold link necklaces, along with my Prada Baroque sunglasses, and Kate Spade studs.

Former Bombshell Taye liked my Prada sunnies so much, she had to take a shot:)

I also slipped on my Jessie Adore bangles , an AG ring, and packed my Ipad in an American Apparel leather pouch.

I could change my Mata Hari bag, but why switch it up? All my particulars are in there, and it kind of goes with everything.

I also went with my tried & true Tribtoos. They’re classic and are actually not that uncomfortable.

And there you have it!

*For everyone asking about my workout regimine, it’s coming up! xoxo

Happy Wednesday!
Is fashion week over yet?!? I kid.
At any rate, check out our Bombshell for today, the delectable Candy from New York:

She says, “It has taken a couple years to perfect my style.”

” It took me years of different trends to finally and fully embrace my love for all black outfits, tribal prints, leather & denim, and tiny florals.”

“… I work out everyday and have accepted my figure, so I am very conscious of what works on me and what doesn’t.”

“… My clothing speaks volumes about who I am: deep, cultural, unique, kind-hearted, and very unexpected.”

“… My personal style changes no matter where I am: whether it be at my accounting job (yes, I am an accountant) or at a fashion show (I am the fashion blogger of taylor & DEMOLISH – www.tayloranddemolish.com).”

Cute! Love that high slit skirt. What do you guys think of today’s Bombshell?
