Cassie got her stan on last night, attending Britney Spears’ concert in New York.
She wore a cropped zebra print top, ripped jeans, and platform blue pumps that showed off her slim frame. Go for a similar concert look with these affordable separates:

Fashion Week is right around the corner!
For all you fashionistas intending to hobnob with the ‘who’s who’ of the fashion world, do it with MICHAEL Michael Kors Python Embossed Oversized Clutch:
The rich wine hue coupled with the snakeskin texture is ideal for the fall (and it beats the heck out of an unsightly briefcase). At an astounding $198 (no digits missing), it’s an incredible recession friendly splurge.
Get it here!

So Back to School is in full swing!
If you’re an on campus fashionista (or simply wish to remember those days), we’ve found outfits inspired by some of pop culture’s most stylish students:
Whether you’re evoking Denise Huxtable’s Bohemian vibe, nostalgic for Lisa Turtle’s bright neon élan, or have a penchant for Dionne Davenport’s preppy swagger, The Fashion Bomb has modernized their on screen styles for you. Let’s take a look:
Lisa Turtle:
If you loved the neon of the early ’90’s, you can follow Lisa’s lead in bright print dresses layered under more contemporary boyfriend blazers. If you’re too shy for full on patterns, go for a subtle outfit, stacking on technicolor bracelets or funky, chunky earrings:
Denise Huxtable:
This unsung fashionista made waves on the Cosby Show, rocking harem pants with confidence before their recent resurgence on runways. Bring her look to life in menswear inspired button downs and hats–sauce it up for fall in tall ankle boots and over the top accessories:
Dionne “Dee” Davenport:
Black Mary Janes and pleated skirts are wardrobe classics, making it easy to channel Dee from the 1995 cult film Clueless. Go for uber preppy yet modern with pearls, stud earrings, and a Burberry check headband (knee high socks are optional):
Hilary Banks:
Primetime’s original Daddy’s Girl can live on today in black bouclé jackets set off by gold chunky bracelets and flower pins. Slip on a hat for true Fresh Prince of Bel-Air flair, or make your look ‘bankable’ in peep toe patent pumps:
Isabel Coates:
Stunt like a true Gossip Girl in Houndstooth coats toned down by black pencil skirts and demure headbands. Up the ante by adding a bright colored tote and patterned heels, keeping jewelry to a minimum:

Today we have a few snapshots of Brittany from Smoaks, South Carolina:
The 18 year-old says, “I recently started trying to get a more mature look. I am a shoe fanatic so my shoes are always the beginning of a look for me. I start college this year and I can’t wait to work my new style!“
Brittany is a fellow blogger, and recently started her personal tribute to fashion called the The Chiffon Safari. Check it out at www.thechiffonsafari.blogspot.com.
In the meantime, what do you think of young B’s style?

Vanessa Simmons and Trina were recently spotted rocking the same hot pair of embellished turquoise peep toes:
Vanessa wore hers as an accent to her American Apparel Chambray Jumpsuit for a birthday celebration in NYC. Trina went for the jumpsuit route as well, but opted for a much tighter catsuit in all black set off by an onslaught of cascading chains and stacked bracelets.
Both women brought their own distinct style, but who wore it better?
