Happy Monday!
Grammy Award Winner Ne-Yo is our Man Crush Monday subject, and sat down with Fashion Bomb Daily to discuss personal style, his predilection for hats, going hatless on World of Dance with Jennifer Lopez, and how he feels being called “Young Michael Jackson” by Jay Z.
About his personal style, he says, “I’m not one of those cats that can put on something uncomfortable because it’s cute. I’m not that dude. I have to be comfortable. I’m at my most effective when I’m comfortable. Comfortable but at the same time, paying attention to what makes sense for me. I’m not really a trend follower. I tend to do what works for me and hope the world likes it. And if they don’t like it, well that’s their problem.”
You might have noticed that Ne-Yo always sports a dope hat! So how many hats does he own? He answers, “OH LORD. More than I should to be honest with you. It’s a little embarrassing because it completely speaks to my insecurity.”
He continues, “I started wearing hats really really young. In junior high school, my hair starting thinning in the front. It was very very visible, very noticeable. Of course school kids can be mean as hell. I used to get picked on a lot and I got in a lot of fights behind it. My teachers would allow me to wear my hats, so I wouldn’t be fighting all the time. From then, since I got out of high school I got real cool and familiar with who I am and what I am.”
“…It wasn’t so much my insecurity anymore, now it was apart of my body, I felt naked without one. I just kinda carried that on into adult life. Last year, I took it upon myself to not wear my hat…it was gonna be a full year, but it started getting cold. I did a full season of World of Dance, the dance competition show that I judge with Jennifer Lopez, with no hat to prove a point to myself.”
” I’m always preaching self love. You can’t really preach self love if you are hiding behind a security blanket. I took the hat off and accepted the backlash that came with it. There is no large head joke I haven’t heard, I’ve heard them all. People can get really creative with it. It’s all good. I’m grown.”
In the song, Crazy, Jay Z raps, “Ne-Yo’s like Young Michael, I’m Quincy Hov.” About Jay Z calling him a young Michael Jackson, Ne-Yo says, ” For Jay Z to say that and to have that permanently engraved in time in a song…It was very flattering, and it still is. Very very big shoes to fill that I didn’t catch the compliment initially. There will never be another Michael jackson of course, but his influence lives in me, Miguel, Chris Brown because without him, there would be no us.”
To kickstart the week, we have an edgy Fashion Bombshell of the day. Behold, Brittany based in Istanbul, Turkey.

To jumpstart the week, we have some Bomb style from today’s Fashion Bomber of the day. Meet Craig from Harare located in Zimbabwe, Africa.
He writes, “I believe my Style is more formal with a hint of luxury mostly because of my career as a Luxury Event Designer. My look sells my brand before I even begin to chat with a client. When not in formal I enjoy a bit of street casual with some outstanding elements that speak of my character. And well everyday what I wear best is my confidence.”

It’s one thing to find clothing that looks absolutely stunning and flattering on your figure. It’s another, when you only have to pay $49 dollars for it. Angela Simmons’ ‘Got Me Feelin Good’ denim jumpsuit from Fashion Nova, name is fitting more ways than one. She keeps it simple with accents of a gold fanny pack, and neon silk ‘So Kate’ Christian Louboutins’ that shows her fun play with textures; such cute shoes that will run you for a good $750, though!
However, Angela is cleverly mixing high and low with the help of Fashion Nova, as the splashes of color pairing well with the jumpsuit’s denim, doesn’t do too much, but instead gives the outfit a more trendy flare. The double breast and moto style, highly edgy, but glamoured up look by Angela shows off the comfiness and figure flattering outfit made for any curvy cutie to perfection. You can find the direct link to this look for less right here!

Well Fashion Bombers,
It’s not so easy to dress down a bodysuit, but serve up an amazing outfit with balance. You know, not too dressy…not too casual, but just right with no amount of lackluster, whatsoever! It takes a bold one to pull off the polyester bodysuit, with a stunning sweetheart neckline including puffed sleeve, and this Celebrity Fashion Bomber gets the job done.
Flaunting her amazing curves in black stone washed jeans and a bold red lip, Malaysia takes casual to a whole ‘nother level! Find the body suit here for a steal of $28 in price!
