Happy Monday, Bombers and Bombshells!

Fashionistas of all stripes gathered for a night fun, networking, and best of all, fashion on Saturday, November 11th for our annual event, Cocktail with Claire! Our Editor-In-Chief Claire Sulmers and celebrity stylist, Ty Hunter, took over The Attic Rooftop & Lounge in Midtown Manhattan.

The chilly weather couldn’t stop the party! Guests, including Love & Hip-Hop’s Yandy Smith arrived in their flyest furs, coats, and more.

Before the party headed up to the roof with drinks and music by DJ Olivia Dope, VIP attendees had the chance to brunch with Claire, Ty and our special guests Mr. Jay Manuel and Robert Verdi. The industry moguls shared advice with aspiring stylists, journalists, designers, and creatives during a short panel discussion. The guests sipped on Martini & Rossi and Seagrams Spiked drinks while indulging on the delicious menu items at The Attic including a delicious lobster mac & cheese, a chicken and waffles platter, and more. Flowers from The Bouqs Co decorated the table.

Once the panel and brunch ended, the crowd headed up to the roof for the party! Claire and Ty made their rounds and greeted guests who anxiously awaited to take selfies and introduce themselves to the host and hostess. Claire signed books while shinning in her Marquette21 dress.

Not only did bombshells and bombers dance the night away, but they shopped it up as well. Tnemnroda Eyewear was on the scene with their statement shades, Moda Operandi showcased designer duds, and Dare to Have Hair offered their wares to savvy fashionistas.

Before the party ended, iconic costume designer and honoree Patricia Field arrived! She was honored by Claire & Ty with an award for her commitment to diversity.

To close out the evening, we spotted some major street style looks and even got to chat it up with these Bombshells and Bombers (stay tuned for the interviews coming soon!) Take a look what they chose to rock for the night.

Who says you can’t wear white in the fall?! Patrick (spag_lo) show us otherwise! He stepped out in a casual look making a statement with his pastel pink leather jacket. 

Yesss! This bombshell opted for a tuxedo jumpsuit and a white and gray fur coat. Her leopard print pouch adds the perfect touch to this chic look!

These fab ladies posed with Ty Hunter in their bomb looks. They stood out in the crowd while channeling their personal style. I am loving the twist on the track pants!

Carina aka @goldofthesun from LA exuded floral essence chic within her look of in blue and green hues. It’s so urban, yet elegant. Love it!

Patrick aka @monsieurbelange from Lagos, Nigeria looked rich and dapper in bronze and wool fabric for his look for the night!

Nadia aka @queensolomanjewels from Brooklyn was giving me Taraji P. Henson tease all night! Her smokey makeup and slick back pony matched perfectly with her furry green coat, paired with a @gucci waist belt.

WERK! I ran into Shanda aka @gigichroniclesnyc from New Jersey who looked glam drenched in a full burnt orange ensemble!

Davon aka @authentic_personality from Connecticut aimed for a black and white modern look, and he nailed it!

@Qayseanroe looked fab in a black monochrome fit. To complete the look he added a touch of slay with his layered multicolored fur coat.

Oui, Oui! Shantell aka @shantedion  from Boston, MA opted for a Parisian inspired look and killed it! The stripes in the fit are everything!

So much sleekness! Shauna aka @loveshere  from Connecticut looked chic and kept it minimal in her royal blue jumpsuit layered with a fur coat.

Thank you to all the FBD readers who came out for a jam-packed day of fun with Claire, Ty and all of our special guests. We’ll see you in the next city!

Snoop Dogg’s eldest son, Cordell Broadus, isn’t just known for having one of the greatest rap legends as a Dad! He’s his own rising mogul who adores pursuing his passions in fashion and film. This 20-year-old LA native is making a name for himself as a creative director for Joyrich, and he’s even gotten his hands dirty in directing music videos such as his father’s “Toss it” video with help from his production company. He’s been featured on the runways of Dolce & Gabbana (Menswear SS18) and Phillip Plein (SS18), but that was just to get his feet wet into his ultimate goal to walk the same path of some of the greats in directing films like Steven Speilberg and Quentin Tarantino. He is dubbed our MCM because he once hesitated to embrace his creative energy, but now he’s proving to the world that he can take on just about any challenge. Behold, our Man Crush.

 

This witty UCLA film student scored all A’s during his sophomore year, already has his career path aligned, is killin’ look after look in the fashion industry, and I’m sure the ladies can’t get enough of that fresh face and charming smile.

 

He loves sports, but he’s more of a creator than anything else. We see that through his input on designs for Joyrich, and even when showing off his own swaggy style on Instagram @cbroadus.

 

Prints look absolutely divine on this young fellow. It elevates his style to a more confident, sleek appeal.

 

 

 

 

Even though he loves indulging into films more than anything, his modeling career can take him through the roof! He would make a great spokesmodel for intimate brands’ like Calvin Klein.

Cordell’s originality reflects fashion decades of the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s. He’s too cool to follow trends, as he’s put’s his own spin on the old and turns into a modern look.

His appearance is always clean, crisp and well put together. There’s no telling what his future will consist of but we know it’s surely a bright one ahead!

Today’s Bombshell is bringin’ her a-game. Behold Bettinah from Uganda.

She writes, “Sexy is my mantra. I pick pieces that show off my curvy, feminine figure. I always strive to pick a silhouette that shows off my waist. My style is more high end,  very trendy and classy with a touch of sexy.” 

 

“To me, fashion and photography should go hand in hand because photography is powerful. The quality of your photos keeps people glued to your social media even where you choose to shoot from contributes a lot to your photos, I always tell people around me, wearing the most gorgeous outfit and not taking a photo to share with the world is a complete and utter waste. What you wear is how you present yourself to the world. Fashion is an instant language and Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak.”

Everything was coming up feathers for Lauren Santo Domingo in Calvin Klein.

I loved the way Tory Burch accented an otherwise v-neck, embellished jumpsuit with a pussybow blouse.

Laura Harrier and Leon Bridges were easily one of the night’s best dressed duos. Her pretty yellow frock skewed Spring, but his expertly-tailored navy suit was impeccable.

If you haven’t yet decided on what to wear to tomorrow’s Cocktails with Claire x Ty Hunter event in NYC, here’s a few ideas to get your wardrobe game together.

For a fun and festive outfit idea, style a double-breasted blazer with a neck-tie shirt and leather leggings.

Add a dash of sparkle with a pair of silver sequin pumps and diamond logo stud earrings. Lastly, work a chic box clutch and a bold pink lip for a pop of color.

Style one of the season’s hottest trends in a hunter green velvet blazer and matching wide-leg pants.

Pull the look together with a lace bralette top, an acrylic box clutch, and black suede pumps. Add the finishing touch with simple gold jewelry, a soft pink lip, and full voluminous lashes.

And for your final wardrobe option, rock distressed high-rise skinny jeans and an ivory satin camisole with a burgundy printed velvet blazer.

Incorporate chic details with gold leather pumps, a plush navy blue fur stole, a burgundy velvet shoulder bag, and a beige wide-brim fedora hat. Opt for a deep plum lip and a smokey eye for the final touch.
