A few instances of chic from this week:

I love Michelle’s top. She’s always a winner in my book!

Who’s your pick?

Log on to Honeymag.com to peep their latest obsession:

Fanny Packs!

They say, “Not only did the pelvic purse serve as hands-free storage for your Lip Smackers (that waxy gloss that ended up all over his face instead of your lips), Walkman, and Gameboy, it was nothing short of a fashion necessity.” Read more here.

A handful of Fashion Bomb worthy celebs crept out last night for Maxim’s Annual Hot 100 Celebration. Some were looking hot and others, hmm…

Ciara took a risk, rocking clean cornrows with a strapless blue satin dress with a black belt and pumps. Though some may say cornrows should stay off the carpet, I applaud her courageous fashion spirit…hot!

Actress Dania Ramirez also went for strapless in a metallic number topped off with hot blue embellished pumps. Might we have a new style star on our hands? Hot!

Elise Neal kept the blue theme going in a turquoise spandex number. Toned shoulders and a subdued gold sandal makes this look hot!

Beauty Gabrielle Union chose a predictable Herve Leger dress and simple jewels for the fete. I’m totally over Herve Leger Gabby! Hmm…

Kim Kardashian looked simple in an off white thigh grazer brought to life by black accessories. Kim could make a sack look sexy, but what really makes her look hot is her alluring eye makeup. I’m taking notes!

Lastly crooner Raphael Saadiq stunted in a quirky red creation with a light pink button down and patterned tie. Though he blends with the carpet, I admire his unique steez. Hot!
What do you guys think?

Sweet. I’m coveting the sarongs and turqouise dress already…
Thoughts?

A favorite of stars like Ciara, Alexis Bittar Bracelets are eye catchingly chic and edgy. Tap your inner fashionista with this $395 Cubist Mirror Hinge Bracelet:

Made of resin and rhodium, the sharp angled accessory will make any outfit extraordinary.
Pair it with the following for a high/low look:

The perennial problem of hitting the town with a clutch: It’s cute and looks great, but is never large enough to fit all you need (including that pair of flip flops you need to rest your feet at the end of the night!). Enter Rampage’s $68 Jenny Flap Clutch:

It’s compact enough to look chic, yet large enough to stow all your necessities. A drop chain shoulder strap offers ease and versatility, and the price makes it a must!
Pair with the following for your next night out:

Reminisce back to the days when the Fugees were new on the scene and still together…

…and when Lauryn was still the flyest chick in the game!

Check out some vintage Lauryn Style in this archive Fashion Bomb post.

Enjoy!
