Hey Guys!
Today I wanted to profile a new Fashion Bomb worthy stylista on the scene, Shala Monroque:
The young editor-at-large of Pop Magazine (and girlfriend to famously wealthy art mogul Larry Gagosian) has been busy on the party circuit, meriting a place as one Style.com’s Top Party People of 2009 and Who What Wear’s Girl of the Month, thanks to her fearless style, sick shoe collection, and indisputable beauty. We thought it was high time to see what all the buzz was about, and we weren’t disappointed!
For international fashion weeks, Shala brings out the boldness in vibrant colored skirts and simple shirts, punched up with tribal heels and chic statement necklaces.
At fashionable fetes she keeps the flavor going in fun mini dresses set off by cute feather adorned stiletto sandals or slim cut airy separates with interesting details.
For more casual engagements, she skews towards simple in solid colored blazers worn over conservative shifts.
But whatever she wears, it’s clear: homegirl is fierce!
If you want to channel a bit of her essence, do so with these fun picks:
She might give Genevieve Jones a run for her money on the socialite scene!
What do you think of this new Fashion Bomb addition?
If you need more Shala, check out her blog, Shala the Pop, here.
Don’t let the words deceive you.
The mastermind behind that red sole that embodies luxurious footwear has teamed up with Barbie to create ‘Cat Burglar Barbie.’
I’m sure you can all agree when I say that this is one fierce Barbie! Clad in a leather cat suit and sporting the Differa sandals, this Barbie definitely stole my heart the first time I saw it. And to add fire to the fashionista flame, she comes with three more pairs of Louboutin’s, each with their own box and dust bag.
You can live vicariously through her for $150 here. But Net-A-Porter.com is all sold out. Keep checking until they’re back in stock.

Divas Mariah and Rihanna (Mimi and Rih Rih) showed that black on black is always chic, stunting in all black outfits for the launch of Vevo last night in New York. Similar outfit combinations are easy to pull together, but the trick, as the stylistas show, is to pile on tons of amazing eye catching accessories:
For an after work mixer, pair an empire waist belted top with a pencil skirt, and slide on platform pumps and tantalizing jewelry:
The time of year is approaching when you’ll have to dust off your metallic tops, vibrant shifts, and eye catching shoes!

Stunt in front of colleagues in smart pieces that marry conservative office chic with your personal style. Mix and match the following separates with your classic black pants, skirts, and jackets for a work perfect party look.
A colorful top:

We’ve gotten a few requests for Usher’s Brown Jacket from Gucci Mane’s Spotlight Video! Keisha said, “The sherpa lined jacket is expensive (seeminly Rick Owens or Martin Margiela expensive )…can you help me find a moderately priced alternative?”
The closest we could find to his shearling lined leather was this $1,050 Nat Jacket by brand Mackage:
The brown sheepskin jacket features epaulet shoulders, zip sleeve cuffs, and a duo snap tab collar.
