Get into the Holiday spirit with this red and green splashed outfit inspired by Brit Tolula Adeyemi:


While you may not have much time to run out to the mall, you can surely get a Tolula essence by coordinating similar items already in your wardrobe. Pull out a loose fit black turtleneck, festively short red plaid skirt, and thigh high black boots. Paint on some green nail polish to add a dash of quirky yuletide charm:

Bonnes Fetes!

Happy Holidays from The Fashion Bomb!

We’ll be taking a break starting today, but will be back in fighting form next week.

Mary J. Blige came out last night to promote her newest album, “Stronger With Each Tear,” at Best Buy in NYC. To combat against the winter snow, she pulled on a pair of black Ugg boots with black contrast leggings, a slick black turtleneck, and a shimmer scarf. Dark sunglasses and a cute haircut added a dash of edge to her simple look.
Though we declared Ugg’s over in February, Mary seems to make the notoriously comfy boots look Hot!

But what do you think?
Are they hot! Or do they make you go hmm….?
