Martina @martinajwillis kept it street chic in her lace-up pants! She threw on a khaki trench coat and a Bathing Ape top to make her pants work.
Kristal @kristalwitha_k offset her lace-pants with an army green vest and off-the-shoulder top. We love this fashionable combo!
Jenaya @jen.chic gave us total diva style in her lace-up pants! She partnered her pants with a white fur coat and oversized sunnies.
Shavonda chose all white lace-up pants which she paired with a white top and white hat. Haute girl! See more of her fashion looks and designs on Instagram @shezarebel.
Lisa @TheShoppingSlayer adorned her lace-up pants with a camo jacket layered under an army green coat and black, strappy sandals. Creative!
Ann @ann.wyn is totally giving the Kardashians a run for their money! She paired her lace-up pants with an off-the-shoulder top, a black faux fur coat and some strappy sandals. Fly! See more of her style at www.lips-of-wine.com.
And that does it!
What do you think of the way these ladies sported their lace-up pants? Will you be partaking in this trend?
Just slip on a pair of heels and a cute bag, and you’re on your way!
If blues are more your thing, their Paradise dress has a similar silhouette with a different color scheme:
Get both at NobodyJones.LA!
And we sure to get your tickets to CWC x Ty LA here!
So in preparation for Cocktails with Claire x Ty Hunter LA, we are featuring Bombshells from Lalaland all week!
Today’s featured goes out to Khrissy:
She writes, “My name is Khrissy from the Crenshaw district in Los Angeles , CA.”
” Growing up I always admired the women who could make the simplest outfit look flyy.”
” My style is just that; simple and comfortable.”
” I like oversized pieces, baggy jeans and anything that you don’t have to iron or wear a bra with lol.”
Your looks are definitely fly but simple. Bombshell! See more on IG @iamkhrissyb.
Be sure to stop by Conversations with Claire LA!

Happy Monday, Bombers and Bombshells!
As I type, I am staring at the Gateway Arch in St. Louis Missouri! Yesterday, I gave a keynote at St. Louis Women who Brunch! The day prior, I had a book signing at Nesh NYC (15 Gansevoort Street), with a conversation moderated by June Ambrose.
Guests sipped Belaire mimosas and nibbled on treats by Chef Jeff, all the while indulging in any nuggets of wisdom June and I had to impart about the fashion industry, entrepreneurship, and life.
Tamiko White, who, along with Nesh owner, Bree Chambers opened the space to us, remarked that ‘God was in the room.’ I couldn’t agree more. If someone had a question about their next step or had fear in their hearts about fulfilling GOD’s purpose for them, they received direction, advice, and support.
June and I are not life coaches and don’t profess to be life experts, but one thing we have in common is that we both left corporate environments and stepped out on faith to live the life we chose. My only hope is that our courage and drive inspire others to follow their dreams. We want everyone to win!
You guys came armed with great questions, and also fly outfits!
Black and white with sheer and fringed elements were on tap for this fashionista.
Fringe is certainly in, as witnessed by this attendees fringed jeans.
A handful of Fashion Bombers did come to slay! I say yes to everything!
A floral kimono was the perfect accent to rose chrome sneakers.
This Bombshell stopped traffic in gray tones.
Fashion Bomb Daily staffers came to represent! One of our latest additions, Cassandre, will be handling interviews and exclusive content! She killed it in a black crop top, leather jacket, reflective sunnies, and a pleated metallic skirt.
We mostly communicate via email and GroupMe, so they were happy to finally meet!
And speaking of Group, I grabbed one with staff members Cassandre and Marsha, along with Creative Director Kelley Carter.
We are small, but scrappy, and growing at a fevered clip. As I run around, these ladies keep everything running!
At any rate, it was a fun time!
Thank you to everyone who came, purchased a book, and offered a gift. I appreciate you!
Thank you to June for moderating, and to Tamiko and Bree (not pictured) for opening Nesh’s doors to us!
Lastly, thank you to Chef Jeff, Belaire, Ampoé, and Cantu for providing treats and eats for our guests.
Next stop? LA for Cocktails with Claire x Ty Hunter. We’re gonna have some Bomb panelists and special guests. Stay tuned for the reveal later today. Get your tickets here.
See more pix in the gallery above and visit TheBombLife.com in a few hours for more moments from my eventful weekend.
Smootches!

**Special thanks to Dee Dee, Yannique, Kelley and Zalika for lending your time and your talent to making this event a success!
***I’m wearing a suit by Virgos Lounge.
Graffiti-inspired scribbles toughen up the Camo Rose print on this varsity jacket. The satiny piece is finished with buttery leather trim and sporty stripes, while the embroidered message on the back celebrates rebellious girl-gang style.
Such a cute look! Very simple yet stylish. I’d splurge on this piece.
If you feel the same, you can purchase here for $995.
Happy Thursday, folks!
I’m happy to announce that Cocktails with Claire is headed to the West Coast!
Yes, it feels like it’s been a long time coming, but we are finally headed to the Golden State!
LA ladies and gents, set your calendars for Saturday April 1st for a fun infused fete, co -hosted by Ty Hunter.
It all goes down at the swanky Riviera 31 at the Sofitel Beverly Hills (8555 Beverly Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90048). The daytime event will include an Ask Claire session and a Breaking into Celebrity Fashion Styling Panel (panelists to be announced soon). The evening event will include dancing, drinks, eats, and lots of fun! Get your tickets at CWCTYLA.eventbrite.com.
And I’ll actually be staying on the West Coast for 2 weeks, getting some relaxation in, along with getting some work done (we might have a No Basics Brunch while we’re there).
But then on Saturday April 15th, I’ll be in San Francisco, for my very first Cocktails with Claire SFO:
I’ll see you Bay Area Bombshells at HUE SF at 447 Broadway from 3-7pm! We’ll also have a panel, vendors, and fun! Get your tickets at CWCSF.Eventbrite.com.
With all this snow and cold, I can’t wait to feel that California sun!
Also, please believe, we have stops planned at cities we’ve been to before (Atlanta, D.C., New York), along with a few new cities for good measure (Houston, Boston, stand up!). Behold, a few tentative dates below:
We are not having vendors in LA, but we are looking for gift bag sponsorship, and are open to cool ways we can incorporate your brand in our festivities (photo booth, anyone?)! Please email events@FashionBombDaily.com for more info.
Smootches!
Take a quick look back and reflect on the most ‘liked’ looks, according to Instagram:
1. Cassie in Vintage: 7,227 Likes
Cassie gave fever on the ‘gram in a simple pleated cropped navy top and pants. The beauty didn’t need much to garner your praise! Just a beautifully beat face and a glorious beam.
Only a bad girl like Riri could wear a simply olive Ulyana Sergeenko trench coat, baseball cap, and Fenty x Puma platforms and slay your lives with 6,820 likes.
This is how you age gracefully. Jane Fonda looked lovely at the premiere of Grace and Frankie in a mint Elie Saab jumpsuit that complemented her eye color, along with Yossi Harari jewelry. She better slay!
Sanaa Lathan has been heavy on the promo trail for her latest project, and stepped out yesterday in a Zimmermann Dress, Nicole Miller fur, and Gianvito Rossi sandals. Simple but chic!
No look of the week could ever be complete without a look by Jennifer Lopez! The entertainer opted for a sheer Balmain, one sleeved number for a daytime show. Though some said it was a bit much for daytime, you do what you want when you’re poppin!
That does it!
Who had the hottest look in your opinion?
Fan Bingbing was the belle of the ball at the 11th Asian Film Awards, slipping on an Elie Saab Spring 2017 Couture Blue Off the Shoulder Embellished Jumpsuit:
