Happy Monday Bombshells!
Today’s reader submission is from Chicago native, Dominique:

She says, “I just graduated with my fashion degree from University of North Texas this year and currently pursuing a career aspiring in both fashion design/fashion journalism.”

“Like Oprah says, ” You can have it all just not at once.” There are so many things about the industry that excite me. I love fashion and it has always been apart of who I am.”

” I believe that every women should be confident in who they are. Never be afraid to dress how you feel.”

Dominique blogs as well at fashionsimplicity.blogspot.com. Check her out!

Cute looks Roshele! I’m a huge fan of skirts and dresses too. Just slip one on and go!

Hey Hey!
Today island girl Julesia from St. Vincent courageously submitted her Fashion Bombshell worthy photos:

In her short e-mail she said she was a fashion designer, but didn’t include a link to her website or include pictures of her garments.

Perhaps we can assume she’s wearing her own designs?
Who knows.
Julesia leave a comment and tell us more!
Until then, what do you think of her style?

Hey!

Today’s Bombshell is aspiring model Lucinda from California:

She says, “ I want to model. The high fashion agencies believe that I am perfect for the commercial agencies, but when I go to the commercial agencies they all say we already have enough black girls.”

“… I always visit the agency’s site before I attend the open call.  They only represent a couple of black women who have long hair and have a lighter complexion than I do. The reason I want to model is because I want to see diversity and my complexion represented everywhere –I feel young girls with darker complexions are suffering from self esteem issues and wanting to be lighter. They also may think having shorter or natural hair is a bad thing.”

” I love being African-American and my darker complexion. I was wondering if you knew of anyone that could help, or if I could be featured on your blog. I have attached some photos of myself. Thanks.”

Hi Lucinda! Thanks for writing in. As Renée Thompson demonstrated in the short documentary, The Color of Beauty (which we wrote about here), it’s unquestionably more difficult for models of color to find jobs in the industry. The best thing to do is what you are doing now: speaking out about it, staying positive about your self image, and pushing and persisting until a door opens. The issue needs constant exposure until something changes. I think you have a great style that would look smashing on the pages of any mainstream magazine.
Good luck!

We’re bringing back a tad of international flavor with Andrea, a Paris based stylist and blogger for the website Paris Most Wanted:

She says, “Mon style est vintage et féminin (My style is vintage and feminine).”


“…J’aime mixer les accessoires de marques avec des pièces vintage et parfois créer mes propres tenues. (I like to mix designer accessories with vintage pieces and sometimes make my own outfits.”


“Je me sens confortable dans n’importe quelle tenue du moment qu’elle colle à ma personnalité, je ne suis pas les tendances. (I feel comfortable in whatever I’m wearing at the moment as long as it reflects my personality. I don’t follow trends.)”

“Style speaks louder than fashion”
Oui Oui! Andrea is a fierce beauty and records her stylish escapades along with her buddy Sandy on their blog, Paris Most Wanted.
