Hey!
So we love to keep it international here at the Fashion Bomb, and today we have Rashida from Canada:

She says, “ I am a 21 year-old Biology student from Toronto.”

“…You have been giving girls from T.dot a lot of love lately, so I wanted to join in on the action!”

“I am a HUGE fan of The Fashion Bomb! Reading this blog used to get me through my boring days at work. I talk about your posts so much that my friends are hooked on the blog too!”

Hey Rashida, thanks for reading! Is it you who’s been telling everyone in Toronto about us??
Thanks for the love;)
What do you guys think of Rashida’s style?

Upscale Hype has the scoop on the latest t-shirts from Pharrell’s Billionaire’s Boy’s Club line:

They say, “BBC is releasing 3 T-shirts each with different quotes from the Pharrell Williams produced “So Ambitious” track off of Jay-Z’s ‘Blueprint 3′ album.”

“…The shirts should be available online soon at the BBC online store with a price range of $80 to $100.”

OK $80 for a tee is more than outrageous, but I like the message of these tees. Perhaps they’re a worthwhile investment?

I’m probably dating myself (again), but I was playing this song this morning and had flashbacks to my youth:

Confession: I was obsessed with Jodeci back in the day. I still have their cassette tapes and singles. Yes, tapes.

If you, too, can remember buying cassette singles and Jodeci, enjoy;)

I recently stumbled upon designer Peter Hidalgo’s website, and instantly fell in love with his classic, well tailored clothes:

His six piece Fall/Winter 2009 collection includes strapless dress, skirts, and trench coats in a muted gray and black palette. The line seems perfectly tailored for a high powered office manager who doesn’t scrimp on fabric, quality, or cuts.

Rihanna hit the streets of Venice with her best bud wearing a pair of knee high boots with a short black skirt, denim shirt, layered gold jewelry, and a military cap:

Get her look for less with these fun options:

A handful of our favorite F-Bomb celebrities were living up to their jetsetter reputations this weekend, hopping from country to country looking fly at each stop for weddings and race car events. Others kicked it stateside for the typical events, offering plenty of fodder for our weekly Hot or Hmm roundup. You be the judge:

Beyoncé attended the Singapore Formula 1 Grand Prix in an event appropriate race car inspired zipper top and shorts, accented with shield sunglasses and a bright red lipstick. She adds her own brand of Beyoncé fierce to her suitable ‘fit with wavy blond tendrils and eye catching makeup. Hot!

Rihanna went decidedly more somber to attend her manager’s wedding in Venice. Her new signature dark plum lipstick played off a black and plum dress with a fur shawl. The makeup is growing on me, but hmmm, her look seems more appropriate for a funeral…

Back stateside, Lala stepped out in LA wearing a belted gray dress with platform sandals for a casual shopping trip. The simple silhouette of her comfy dress was made chic by the addition of a waist cinching brown belt and high shoes. Lala shows how to make comfy look cute, sassy, and hot!

A bevy of young stars came out for Teen Vogue’s 7th Annual Young Hollywood party, including SAG award nominated teen actress Keke Palmer. The young bombshell chose an age appropriate champagne colored cocktail for the occasion, accessorized with like colored strappy sandals and wavy updo. While she could still use some lessons on striking a proper pose, her dress and hair are on point and hot!

Fame star and singer Naturi Naughton also made it out to the event in a one shoulder belted red jersey gown accented with black sandals and large gold hoops. The singer looks prim and pretty, if not a bit plain. We’ll have to keep an eye out for this rising style star!

Last but not least, Cosby show alum and That’s so Raven actress Raven Symoné hit up the Teen Vogue red carpet in an understated black belted tunic worn over slimming black leggings and cute black boots. Trendy cascading necklaces, stacked silver bangles, and black nail polish complete her  look. Raven may have had some missteps in the past, but it seems she’s learning slowly but surely how to dress her body in flattering fits. Hot!

What do you think Bombshells?

Happy Monday Bombshells!
Today Fashion Bomb reader Desiree nominated her best friend Ashley for our Bombshell of the Day:

Desiree says, “I’ve known Ashley since the 6th grade and watched her keen fashion sense evolve from middle schooler to college grad.“

“… I’d describe her style as elegant, classic, and funky all at the same time (depends on how she’s feeling).”

“… She has a great eye for color and accessorizing. She has NO IDEA I’m doing this, but I’m sure she’d be pleasantly surprised! Love ya, Ash!”

So cute! I’m liking this whole ‘nomination’ process! If you guys have people in your life who you think should be Bombshell of the Day, send ’em our way.
Until then, what do you think of Ms. Ashley’s style?
