Today’s Bombshell is, Iyanna Yasmeen from Philly.
She writes, “I’ve always been in love with fashion and all things creative.”
“I would describe my style as effortlessly bomb AF (lol) that’s really what I say.”
No really I would say its a tomboy attitude with a feminine flair. Some days I’m girly. I love a tulle skirt and a cute playful purse. I love a tomboy look and I also take pleasure in a sexy edgy look.

Over the weekend, rumors spread that Kanye West is looking into transforming Calabasas High School’s athletic wear and mascot name.
So far, only a phone call and link up occurred between Yeezy’s team and the president of CHS which was considerably a “low-level meeting.“
Stepenosky said, “There seems to be a lot more rumors than actual facts.” First, “$20 million is not accurate.” Second, “We received no proposal. We really don’t have anything to respond to.”
Rumor has it West also wants to change the school’s mascot name from Coyotes to Wolves. Stepenosky says it’s really not up for debate as the Alumnae classes will “lose their mind.” Although he did speak to CHS students and they would highly accept a celebrity icon to change the team name.
But what’s interesting about the uniform takeover the Yeezy Team wants is the similarities in the fashion realm.
Coincidentally, Adidas already has a partnership with CHS chscoyotefootball, so it’s a no brainer that the rapper/designer wants to collaborate since Adidas partner’s with Yeezy’s line as well.
Also, the mogu,l who lives in Calabasas with many highly acclaimed celebrities, already dropped a Calabasas inspired collection in March. And more recently, Kanye dropped a 1980’s throwback Adidas shoe called: “Adidas Yeezy Powerphase.”
The latest shoe was released on June 4th on Adidas.com, but is currently sold out and only can be purchased at third party retailers like Kixify for double the price or more from it’s original selling at $120.
Much of Yeezy’s Calabasas line has a sporty appeal, with labeling vertically and/or horizontally across reading “Calabasas.” It already proves there’s some school pride involved as the Ready-to-Wear collection is currently sold out at Yeezy Supply which says a lot about most fortunate millennials of Calabasas.
The only thing the collection is truly missing if it were to cater to CHS uniform policy is its black and gold school colors. The maroon, black and navy blue apparel definitely separates from what may determine what the alleged future athletic gear may consist of, but maybe that’s just what the school needs.

Typically a space for the beauties that dominate Tinsletown, this week, we’re shining a light on a model whose beauty transcends the exterior. South Sudanese/Minnesota based model Nyakim Gatwech has been making waves across the blogosphere, and it’s not hard to see why.
With skin as dark and flawless as a polished obsidian stone, Nyakim glows in just about any color. And being a makeup enthusiast allows her room to play with vivid colors. Bright blues, reds, and yellows pop against her smoldering complexion, especially when paired with bold colored clothing.
Even in printed designs, the patterns don’t overwhelm her look and compliment her skin tone so beautifully. Despite slaying photoshoot after photoshoot, however, the 24 year old has been on the receiving end of some ridiculous questions and comments as it relates to her skin. She recounted an exchange with an Uber driver earlier this year.
“I was (asked by) my Uber driver the other day, he said, ‘Don’t take this offensive but if you were given 10 thousand dollars would you bleach your skin for that amount?’”
Her response? A guttural laugh that pretty much answered his question with a resounding ” hell no!”
In a world still motivated by European beauty standards, Nyakim unabashedly goes against the grain, grateful for the “melanin God blessed her with.” Though she has admitted the thought of lightening her skin crossed her mind a few years ago, the negative and harmful effects of the skin lightening process didn’t seem as appealing anymore. She eventually became comfortable in her own skin, and that comfort turned into confidence.Now boasting over 100,000 Instagram followers, Nyakim (@queenkim_nyakim) feels it’s her duty to be a beacon of hope and a pillar of inspiration for women who still struggle with skin-positivity and self-acceptance. For that, and literally laughing in the face of privileged ignorance, we salute Nyakim!

Another night, another awards show! Across the pond in London, Glamour threw its Women of the Year Awards with our favorite British beauties, stylish songstresses, models, and more in attendance.
Let’s get into their looks!
Jourdan Dunn was the lady in red, clad in a long-sleeve sheer lace Ermanno Scervino gown in the fiery hue with a plunging neckline, thigh-high slit, and cropped ‘do to boot. Hot!
Jennifer Hudson gave an artful spin to the classic black and white combo in a strapless A.W.A.K.E. LBD with white contrast, ruffle trim.
Winnie Harlow looked every bit the model in a sheer, star-embellished halter gown with a plunging neckline and feather hem. This was fab!
Alesha Dixon also tried the sheer trend on for size, clad in a floral sequin-embellished Tony Ward Couture jumpsuit with cape-inspired sleeves, a plunging neckline, and flared legs.
Rashida Jones accented her simple, yet chic Erdem lace midi LBD with red lips.
Rochelle Humes layered black high-waist trousers over a black lace bustier-inspired bodysuit. I miss her on the red carpet.
Ella Eyre was a floral dream in a blush and white ruffle dress covered in the flirty print. So darling.

Former Spice Girl Geri Horner was pared-down, yet pretty in a black halter gown.

Doctor Who’s Pearl Mackie paired a black mesh crop top with a high-waist, full cobalt maxi skirt.
Who had your favorite look at the awards show?
The Council Fashion Design of America (CFDA) Awards this year stands true to its title as the Oscar’s of fashion. Held in New York at the Hammerstein Ballroom, fashion’s finest celebrities witnessed moving moments from awardees Janelle Monáe, Pat McGrath and double awardee Raf Simons.
The singer, actress and now Board of Directors of the CFDA, Janelle Monáe, was awarded with the “Board of Directors’ Tribute” and gave a powerful speech to acknowledge women and equal rights for all people. She said, “Women’s rights are human rights. LGBTQ rights are human rights. Poor folks’ rights are human rights. Immigrant rights are human rights. Minority rights are human rights. So as human beings, let’s never forget that none of us are free until all of us are free.”
Known as the most influential make-up artist in the world, Pat McGrath wore her crown high as she represented Black Girl Magic with the Founders Award for Beauty.
Raf Simons just may have made history. Since taking over Calvin Klein as Chief Executive Officer for both womenswear and menswear he dominated this year’s win as designer of the year in both categories. This hasn’t happened since Calvin Klein himself won back in 1993.

Bella Hadid’s hair is inarguably one of the most talked-about moments at last night’s 2017 CFDA Awards. Her banged bob was almost too chic for words—perfectly paired with her pink, belted Off-White dress and designer Virgil Abloh by her side for the occasion.
The brunette beauty has been working with Jen Atkin for some time, thus it was no surprise that the hair guru was the brains behind her beautiful tresses. To get the details on how to get Hadid’s hair for the night—which included a clip-in bang—read on…
1. Prep damp hair with a wave spray and moisturizing hair oil.
2. Blow-dry your hair. Dyson’s Supersonic Hair Dryer is a new fave!
3. Use a hot paddle brush on the lower half of your head while blowdrying, for a smooth and sleek look.
4. Add extra volume to the top of your hair with a thermal round brush.
5. Once your hair is dry, part it down the center and gently bend the ends under using a curling iron.
6. Apply a clip-in bang to the front of your hairline. Beauty Works has a great range!
7. Tip: back comb small sections where the clips go for better hold!
8. Apply a small amount of finishing creme with your hands for added smoothness and shine.
9. Finish with hair spray.
