A kind Fashion Bomb reader recently introduced me to Headbanger Accessories, a line of look-at-me earrings that come in bright colors, large sizes, and interesting shapes:



Priced at $40-$70, they’re a bit of a splurge for earrings, but they’re still affordable enough to invest without major guilt.

Hey Fashion Bombers!
Looking to play with prints this summer? Gingham is a chic, yet understated pattern that can be easily dressed up or down:

Rihanna wears an all gingham mini dress with pointy toed pumps, while Solange wears the print as a wild card jacket over all black…

Veronica Webb opts for summery ease in an all pink gingham dress, and Chrisette Michelle prefers just a splash of the print with a cute top.
Guys, don’t fret, you can wear the style too!

Dress up the look with a bow tie like Pharrell, or go for casual in a button down with rolled up sleeves like Mario.
Want the look? Ladies, try these:
Fellas, stay fly with these:

Hey!
Today I wanted to put you on to bomb jewelry brand, Ken and Dana Design:

Their necklaces, shown above, are favorites of stylish stars like Beyonce and Keri Hilson, and their chunky bangles, statement necklaces, and earrings are certifiably dope:

Reader Kristy wrote in with an early Mail Bomb, saying, “I’m interested in finding Kim Kardashian’s Zebra Print dress before Friday. Please help me find it or something similar!” We can’t see the full dress since Kim’s wearing a jacket, but you can get a similar look with this $365 Diane von Furstenberg Nevine Dress:

Too expensive? Get the look at any price point with these options:
Good Luck!
Today we have a Bombshell of the Day submission from Chi-town Diva Vanessa:

She says, “I took this picture recently while out on the town for a “girls-night-out.” I’m wearing a BCBG Spring 09 Jumper, Dolce Vita Python Sandals, a vintage belt and my staple LV Speedy bag.”
Wow, we have some super fly readers, don’t we?
I love how Vanessa mixes a classic Louis Vuitton with a trendy satin jumper.
What do you think of her style?

Confessions of a Casting Director has the following test shots of Amber Rose, who recently signed with Ford models:

Might I say, Ms. Rose looks innocent and fresh in her simple 50’s inspired top and high-waisted jeans. It shows she can look fly in something other than spandex pants and skin tight ensembles.
What brand could you see Amber modeling for?
