Fashion Bombshell of the Day: Briana from Chicago

We are starting off Monday right with today’s Bombshell. Behold, Briana from Chicago.

She writes, “Plus and fashion is one thing, plus and blogging is another but I,  B.Renee….. I consider myself plus and an influencer.”

“Growing up I’ve always been inspired by television shows that had me completely hypnotized, specifically The Nanny, Martin and TRL. One thing  all of these shows had in common were their raw sense of humor which always reflected their raw sense of style. Hence forth I make them accountable for my bold, fearless and edgy style. Being B.Renee came with knowing that “Being average was never on the menu.”-B.Renee. 

“I pride myself on letting my style speak for itself as soon as I walk in a room. B. Renee is all about making statements and doing it well. To play with simplicity, “I just can’t go out like that! “ –B.Renee.

“Growing up plus and financially restricted it was the perfect combo towards my creative and bold style. Today, I can honestly say that I appreciate platforms such as Claire Sulmers creator of Fashion Bomb Daily for creating a space where we ALL can be an inspiration no matter the budget or size!”

Man Crush Monday #MCM: A$AP Rocky

To be an influencer in the music/entertainment industry these days you have to have it all. Style, swag, creativity, and culture drives the masses to single handedly pick who’s next to kill it the game without hesitation. Rakim Mayers, aka A$AP Rocky, is all of that and more, as he’s got the high fashion industry locked, music solidified, and the entertainment industry on a pedestal that is unmatched. That is what makes this Harlem based rapper our Man Crush Monday for the week.

The “Fashion Killa” himself, can literally rock anything and it’ll be recognized as wavy. Whether it be a white tee, distressed jeans and some Retro Jordan’s as his look for the day, it’s his swag that elevates him in a new direction.

An added touch to his swag is his signature medium-sized french braids, which was inspired by his late older brother, who paved the way for him to gear his career path towards becoming a rapper. He then signed with A$AP Mob in 2007, debuted his first single (which was leaked), “Peso” and in 2011 dropped his first mixtape ‘Live.Love.A$AP’ which was his gateway to signing deals with records labels such as RCA Music, Polo Grounds Music, and many others. He later created his own record label, A$AP Worldwide.

The 28-year-old is big on prints, matching solids, puffy jackets/coats, fur, and the flyest kicks, but at the same time manages to look polished, dapper and trendy in his own way.

His optimistic way of dressing and love for luxury labels jumpstarted his career in fashion. But Dior Homme is the high fashion brand to set the bar high for the rapper, as he became the first Black male as the face of the company.

Like most entrepreneurs who’ve already infiltrated fashion grounds, he decided to start his own fashion label, ‘VLONE’ with A$AP Bari in 2016. He’s also teamed up with longtime designer label, GUESS for a ’90s inspired capsule collection, worked with Adidas, and created a collection with J.W. Anderson .

With his sizzling bronze complexion, and baby soft skin appeal, “Pretty Flacko” manages to clean up quite well with his attire. He switches his mood for the day effortlessly, as he turns his swag up a notch with button-ups, suits, blazers and casual shoes. Black and white looks suit him best when he wants to get fancy on them.

He was dubbed “Pretty Flacko” for many reasons. But mainly because of his adorable, friendly, yet soft smile. And the ladies love him (and he loves the ladies)! He’s been spied with Kendall Jenner, Chanel Iman, and other runway ready super models.

Now the world is just patiently waiting for the fashionable killa’ and the rest of the A$AP Mob crew to drop their new album, ‘Cozy Tapes Vol. 2,’ which is expected to be released sometime this year.

Happy Friday!

I’m checking in from St. Louis at the National Urban League Conference. I’ll be signing books this afternoon at 3:30pm, so I hope to see you then!
In the meantime, let’s do a quick review of the hottest looks from the past 7 days, determined by likes on IG!
Behold this week’s top five:
1. Jennifer Lopez in Bao Tranchi: 11,224 likes

No-one can compete when it comes to Slay Lo and bodycons. The multifaceted talent showed off her fine form at Alex Rodriguez’s 42nd birthday dinner in a Spring 2018 Bao Tranchi wraparound dress, uplifted by a short, curly hairstyle. Casadei pumps and her favorite Christian Louboutin tote completed her look. The dress is fire, but her body is the perfect canvas for almost anything. Hot would be an understatement!

2. Cara Delevingne in Custom Burberry: 11,155 likes

Cara Delevingne has been serving look after look while promoting her newest movie Valerian. Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn outfitted the British beauty in a custom Burberry suit, accented by a bejeweled shoulder adornment and crystal shoes. Simple, yet chic!

3. Sanaa Lathan in Zimmermann: 11,040 Likes

Sanaa Lathan loves Zimmermann, and it’s not hard to see why. The brand’s flirty pieces, like this Paradiso ruffled romper, are supremely flattering. We wish we could be half this this fly past 40!

4. Monica Brown in Johanna Ortiz: 8,869 likes

Johanna Ortiz is having the best year ever! Celebs have truly sidled up to the brand’s striped, ruffle tops and separates. Monica Brown slipped on the a Johanna Ortiz kimono while performing in Baltimore, and toned the look down with a Balmain shirt, jean shorts, and a Gucci scarf. This is a great casual look!

5. Rihanna in Prada: 8,802 likes

Every week needs a Rihanna moment! The Bajan beauty looked saucy in a Prada Fall 2017 look for the Valerian Premiere in Paris. She always takes risks that pay off, and we love it!

That does it!
