Happy Monday Bombshells!

So Fashion Week is over and we’re back to our regular fun features! For our Bombshell of the Day we have Michelle from the Empire State, New York:

She says, “I love style! I believe as Ashley Olson once said, ‘You’re either born with a sense of style or you’re not. Either you care or you don’t.’

“….I love to put pieces together and having fun with them, but sometimes I do opt for the simple chic alternative as opposed to a the avant gard due to my busy school schedule.”

“I recently became very successful at vintage shopping and I love it! My wardrobe now consists of many vintage one-of-a-kind pieces, some trendy items, and plenty of basics–you can never have enough timeless / classic basics!”

Ok, you guys have clearly sold me on vintage shopping. I’m going to hit up a few notorious haunts in Paris (and will write you about it!).

Fabulous Michelle is a blogger as well as a stylista. Check out her blog at www.the-hauteness.blogspot.com.

Until then, what do you think of her style?

Fashion Bombshell of the Day is a feature that showcases the singular style and flair of Fashion Bomb Readers. Send your name, location, and Fashion Bombshell of the Day Picture to thefashionbomb@gmail.com.

Begin your transition to fall in style with this $99 Blanket Check Jacket from Talbots:

The charming blazer boasts an edge-stitched notched collar, three quarter sleeves, and goes up to a size 20!

Complement the hot item with these separates:

This week brought out cameos from chic stars on the scene, with Rihanna in a sheer bustier, Halle Berry throwing back to her ‘Boomerang‘ days, and a few Fashion Bomb celebs representing on the red carpet for last night’s Emmy Awards. Let’s take a look!

F bomb fave Rihanna was snapped on her way to Jay-Z’s 40/40 club in New York in a sheer bustier and patterned leggings, topped off with a white roomy jacket and gray suede booties.  I think that if Rih opted to belt her jacket instead of having it fly open, the outfit could’ve actually been hot! But the exposed lingerie like sheer top and tight lycra pants? Hmm…

Halle Berry excited eager fans out in California, harkening back to her younger days with a cropped cut and one shoulder pale peach sundress. The simple outfit, set off by a roomy bag and gladiator sandals, is chic enough to look saucy yet still appropriate for a mature mom. Hot!

The fellas came out for Floyd Mayweather’s fight afterparty in Vegas with Ray J, Tyrese, Diddy, and more feting the boxing star in sharp suits and crisp shirts. From Tyrese’s casually cool black polo button down to Diddy’s pressed gray number and silver sheen tie, the guys are representing for this weekend’s style roundup. Hot!

Over at the Nokia Theatre in L.A., beauty Vannessa Williams stunted on the carpet for the 61st Emmy Awards. She chose a teal Rafael Cennamo gown with a fitted silk bodice for the occasion, accenting her look with a large diamond earrings and a simple black clutch. Curled, windswept hair and bold makeup complete the hot look.

Lastly, “Keeping up with the Kardashians” costars Kim and Kourtney Kardashian also went for floor length and flowing for the Emmy’s with Kim in a hot one shoulder pink gown and pregnant Kourtney in a strapless eggplant stunner. The girls have a natural beauty that is only amplified by well edited dresses, simple diamonds, and slick hairstyles. Hot!
What do you guys think?

A few Bomb celebrities have been harkening back to the early nineties with dark plum lipstick:

The vamp like color was super hot a few years ago with artists like Total, 702, and Foxy Brown.

I’ll admit it: I totally got down with the dark color in my younger years! But now, if I go for a color, it’s more likely to be a bright red, not a dark plum.
Will you ladies be trying this old/new buzzworthy beauty trend?
