Blogger and stylista Whitney from Dallas, Texas sent in the following pictures for Bombshell of the Day:
She says, “If I could describe my style I would say it’s a little bit of everything.”
“I wear what I like and I don’t really follow trends too closely. “
“I love skirts and dresses and rarely wear pants (I find them uncomfortable), but if I had to describe my style, I would say it’s kind of vintage with a little bit of funk.”
Super cute! Whitney loves fashion so much she started an image consulting company. Check her out at www.imagemaven.wordpress.com.

Hey Guys!
Today our Bombshell Tiara hails from Tallahassee, Florida:
She says, “My style is crazy, bold with a bit of wackiness and a few dashes of class.”
” I’m a designer of my own clothing line T.Jenks and in most of my pictures I made my own clothing.”
“I love quirky and cooky looks, I love stuff that most people would never pick up and make it beautiful. I have a weakness for anything bright and bold!”
Yes you do! Loving your cute sequined number.
As Tiara mentioned, she has a clothing line called T . Jenks. Check it out here.

Yesterday I had the distinct pleasure of attending a Q & A session with Elle Magazine’s Creative Director Joe Zee in American Express’ Sky Box at Lincoln Center:
After a brief introduction, the moderator opened the floor, so I had to ask about the choice of Gabourey Sidibe as a covergirl for one of Elle’s four 25th anniversary covers. He said, “We chose four girls, Lauren Conrad, Amanda Seyfried, Gabourey, and Megan Fox because they are all about 25 -years-old and have been smart in their careers. With Gabourey specifically, she scored an Oscar nomination this year, a milestone actresses who have been in the industry for years dream of reaching. I thought she was an amazing choice.”
I had to press about the choice of her less-than-flattering wig and also why they chose to feature just her face instead of a full body shot. He said, ‘Well Gabourey came with her own hair, I had nothing to do with the hair,” he explained, “And with the crop of the photo, we thought it best reflected her bubbly personality. When she comes into a room, she’s not Precious. She’s talkative, bright, and a total movie star. I chose the green dress because I wanted her to look like a Hollywood Starlet. And we chose this shot because I felt she carries most of her spirit and personality in her face.”
Sounds like a solid explanation.
Wow, what a way to kick off Fashion Week!
Yesterday was chock full of fashion, fun, and celebrities:
Check out a few snapshots:
As I was stepping out of Christian Siriano’s Spring 2011 show (review to come), I ran into the beautiful Rachel Roy, who was in the tent meeting and greeting fashionable folk. Rachel apologized for the early start of her Spring 2011 presentation on September 14th (it kicks off at 9:30 am), but I wouldn’t miss RR for the world!
After a quick lunch, I quick stepped over to the Hudson Hotel to meet up with friends who threw me an impromptu “Welcome Back to the States” party! I was surprised my sweet friends organized a shindig for little old me, but was even more bowled over when I looked up and realized the table in front of me was chock full of ‘celebrity’ fashion bloggers like Bryan Boy (www.bryanboy.com), Rumi Neely (www.fashiontoast.com), and Amy Odell from New York Magazine’s the Cut (www.nymag.com/daily/fashion). I went over and said heyyyy:
Turns out they were cooling their heels after a fashion bloggers conference called Evolving Influence (which I wanted to go to, but couldn’t find time with my schedule). I hope to go next year and maybe even sit on a panel.
Hot!
The icing on my fashion cake was celebrating Naomi Campbell’s 25 years in the business at Le Bain with the inimitable Bethann Hardison, Tyson Beckford, David Agbodji, Ajak Deng, BJ Coleman, Andre Leon Talley, Russell Simmons, Sessilee Lopez, Naomi Campbell herself…I mean the list went on and on in terms of famous faces. I was almost speechless. Check out a few Blackberry Pictures:
Yours truly and fierceness herself.
Ajak Denk who is *so* beautiful. She remembered me from when I took her picture during Haute Couture in Paris.
Bethann Hardison cutting a rug.
My homegirl Maya Lake, designer for Boxing Kitten.
Sessilee Lopez and designer LaQuan Smith.
Rachel Bilson.
Tyson Beckford and friends.
It was definitely a star studded affair.
I had the most fun chatting with David Agbodji…
… who wanted everyone to know that he’s NOT Nigerian, but in fact Togolese, and spent his youth between France and Moscow. We had a good old time speaking French. His francais is impeccable and ADORABLE! It’s official, I have a new crush!
Anyway, I’m off to pop into a few shows today. Be sure to follow me on Twitter (@thefashionbomb) for the blow by blow!
Smootches!
Today I’m super juiced to feature Alicia from LA, commonly known as the mind behind popular blog InnyVinny (www.innyvinny.com):
She says, “At its core, my style is best described as a take on boy meets girl.”
“… I love neutral colors and simplicity, but I try to keep it from being boring with different textures and silhouettes or an interesting pair of shoes.”
“I rarely do prints, but when I do, I like to go bold.”
“… I keep my accessories to a minimum and they’re usually something I or one of my friends made.”
Great style, Alicia. Your outfits are inspiring and I love your glasses!

“…Almost everything I wear is reconstructed vintage or something I made for one of my collections.”
“I also adore Emilio Pucci…hence the Pucci boots in one of my pics.”
“I am a designer for J. Pearl Couture and sell to many boutiques in the Atlanta area. I also have an online business selling reconstructed vintage clothing, vintage shoes, etc. “
