Fashionista.com has the scoop on an NYC internship at shoestop Jimmy Choo:
The say, “Jimmy Choo’s in dire need of a PR intern to start immediately. They need someone at least three days a week from 9am to 6pm. If you’ve interned in fashion PR before, and they’d prefer it if you have, you know the drill. Sample tracking, working with magazines, stylists, celebs (especially since it’s awards season). You also need to have a handle on Excel and PowerPoint, be detail oriented, a team player and obviously have a deep love for all things fashion, shoes and bags especially. The best part? They’ll give you $10 a day for lunch, cover your subway pass and give you school credit if you need it.“

Good luck!

I’m a fashion junkie (obvs), so I’m loving the three finger rings, eighties shades, and Goyard cases. But what do you think? Hot or Hmm...?
Bonus: A message from Mr. West…
Wondering about that black Goyard case? A little fashion history care of the website CoolHunting.com:
“The French have enjoyed leather goods from Maison Goyard since 1853. Known for quality, endurance and classic style more than bowing to the trends of the day, Goyard has been a fixture of the French luxury good scene for a long time. Today Goyard is as exclusive and chic as ever thanks to the fashion crowd that has rediscovered its charms. The unique linen, cotton and hemp canvas is covered in hand-painted dots in four colors and is nearly indestructable. Wallets and card cases for guys, bags and accessories for women and collars and dog accessories for the fashionable [pets] in your life. Bags start above $1,000. Available in the U.S. exclusively at Barney’s New York; in Paris at Maison Goyard (and only a handful of other locations around the world).“
So the winner of the Fashion Bomb Internship with 44.4% of the vote is…
…Vuitton!
About his win, Vuitton says, “Thank you ladies SO much for affording me the opportunity! The experience for me was more than fulfilling, simply because I enjoyed every minute of every task. As of now, I’m actually smiling from ear to ear because, honestly, as corny as this may seem, I’ve never won anything before. And to win something like this at a time like now is beyond words.“
You deserve it!
Enjoy your goodies from Essence, Tresemme, DJPremium, Gilt Groupe, Urban Decay, and Reebok!
A special thanks to our sponsors, all the intern candidates, and all your fabulous readers who made your opinions known! Vuitton will hit the ground running this week–keep an eye peeled for his posts!
Bisous!

Hey!
So it was Men’s Fashion Week in Paris, and parties were poppin’ with lots of fashionable folks. A friend and I went to a Boombox party at a club called Regine’s close to the Champs Elysees:
Boombox is a notorious party described by Time Out as, “one of the wildest parties in the world, splicing freaky fashion, a fierce musical mix and carefree flamboyance.” I scanned the crowd for a Fashion Bomb worthy diva and came upon this fierce fashionista:
It was honestly too loud for me to hear her name or the designer of this dress, but I loved her frock’s cinched waist, eye catching metallic material, and open back. And check out her pose!
What do you think of her style? *There’s more where that came from! Check back next week for the following installment.
Kanye’s sneakers debuted on the runway for Louis Vuitton’s menswear show recently…
…thankfully the white boat shoes were noticeably absent (were those a joke?), with these red and black options in their place: Source
These are *much* better. What do you think?
“For the record I would like to state that the statement made on behalf of the Black Artists Association does not represent my point of view. I understand their sensitivity and respect their right to express it. I personally believe it is an unfair expectation to place on the First Lady. Fashion is subjective and a matter of personal choice. As a designer of Color I would encourage the fashion industry, editors and media to lead the way and be more inclusive. True change in America is going to be a collective effort. As an American Designer I am excited that Mrs. Obama, in her role as the First Lady, will heighten the awareness of American style which resonates into business and jobs in the fashion industry.”
I applaud Mrs. Obama for her style and her choices. Most of all for wearing what really matters, dignity and grace.”
…the polls close on Sunday at noon EST.
Bisous!
*Can’t remember who did what? Scroll down on the left hand column for the Blog Archive and a list of past intern posts.
The candidates truly showed their skills with these last two wardrobe queries! Check ’em out: Lola says, “Hi! I live here in NYC and even though it is freezing cold and snowing, I am thinking about black leather jackets for Spring…do you have any affordable suggestions that I can hunt down now? Thanks!“ Amber and Anitra chose the same Victoria Secret finds, with Amber saying, “I scoped out these cute leather jackets just for you (no faux, here!), all $160 and under! Enjoy!”
Lastly, Jaida from the Blog The Coolest Period says, “I’m supposed to be going out to party with my sister for her birthday next weekend. I don’t usually go out so I don’t have anything to wear. I have skinny jeans and flats but all the tops I have are too casual and my flats are a little too casual too. Any suggestions? P.S. I’m a plus size college kid with limited funds. LOL I usually shop at American Eagle, Gap, Target, and Old Navy.“ Suzy says, “I understand limited funds, I’m a college student myself! For tops you want something flirty, sexy or glamorous to pull off with jeans. Look for ruffle details and studs or rhinestones to give your outfit more drama. I also threw in some flat boots for comfort, and a vest for a polished look!“
