She writes, “I’m a stylist sales coordinator for a major department store and my job allows me to try out different trends and learn to market them to our customer.“
“I wouldn’t limit my style to just one type because I like to experiment with different looks.”
“Two things that always remain consistent is that I always like to look feminine and I always wear silhouettes that compliment my body type.”

There are rare instances where I find myself anxiously combing through Instagram for the next lucky Bomb Blogger showcase, yet, this time around, I was blessed to discover that one of my former college colleagues is hot on the sartorial come-up! With a polished and ladylike style all her own, it’s hard to deny that this Houston-based beauty sets the standard when it comes to infusing modern trends with classic wardrobe staples.
So, join me as we marvel at the fashionable musings of Chasmine Cousins of The Glamazon Universe!
In her ‘About Me’ section, Chasmine expresses how she stumbled upon her love for fashion while also giving her readers a brief mission statement highlighting the foundation for which her blog is based. The inspiring style maven writes, “I have loved fashion for as long as I can remember, but that love blossomed into a passion after working for a client-based retailer during college. It is that passion that has created this space, a place where I can share looks that I love for the everyday girl.Growing up in a home where rocking the latest labels was definitely not a priority; I mastered the art of creating affordable looks that were sure to break necks and not the bank! Although I’m madly in love with fashion, I’m convinced that true beauty comes from within. My ultimate desire is to use fashion as my platform to inspire positive personal growth.Being a Glamazon is much more than wearing cute clothes. It’s a lifestyle. It’s all about putting your best foot forward and serving the world awesomeness each and every day. Serving glam has always been my thing and I’m looking forward to serving you, one post at a time.”
Aside from her effortless style pairings, Chasmine is quite the connoisseur when it comes to slaying on a budget. While she gravitates towards brands like Banana Republic and ALDO, she’s not afraid to add glamorous touches whether it’s a lux box clutch or a structured handbag: she knows how to transform her everyday looks into works of street style art. Chasmine also lives for sleek silhouettes, flirty and feminine floral prints, curve-hugging pencil skirts and (of course) perfectly tailored high waist trousers.
It’s almost impossible not to fall in love with this fashionista’s incredible style presence but it’s even harder not to fall for her kind spirit. All in all, The Glamazon Universe is reminiscent of a sweet, late 90’s R&B ballad that hits all the right notes! This expertly-curated blog will leave you feeling delightfully inspired while granting you with an extra dose of classic goodness.
Slay on, hun!

If there’s one thing that Demna Gvasalia is doing (besides making the elite fashion set drool over his designs), it’s bringing a wittiness and comicality back into the snobby and oft stuffy industry of style. His price points are absolutely no joke—not affordable by any means of the imagination—but the way he plays with silhouettes, details, patterns, and textures is nothing short of drôle: he does show at Paris Fashion Week after all.
His Resort 2017 collection for Balenciaga iterates and spins the classics for the season on their heads. Breezy, striped kaftans are lengthened to the floor and accented with asymmetric sleeves. Logo baseball caps top off every ensemble: sure to fly off both brick and mortar and digital shelves almost instantaneously. Glossy pearl drop earrings and bracelets place elegant emphasis on otherwise casual ensembles. And those oversized striped shoppers show up again because why not?
Beach-ready towels were draped over a models’ shoulders—in case they feel like kicking off their triple, ankle-strap pumps for a beachside romp. And shorts were sculptural and expertly tailored in bermuda lengths: in monochrome looks with elegantly cascading tops and sporty zip-front jackets alike.
Chic striped dresses in a slew of shapes are sure to pull in Balenciaga’s tried-and-true fans, as well as a whole new set of women who just want a really gorgeous dress to wear across seasons.
As this isn’t a runway assortment, the looks didn’t have as much red carpet appeal as the iconic French fashion house usually serves up for the catwalk. But fans like Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, and Kendall Jenner are sure to still latch onto the figure-clinging turtlenecks, strong-shouldered suiting, and asymmetric bodysuits.
Fashion fave Lea Michele showcased ample leg while attending Entertainment Weekly’s PopFest at The Reef in Los Angeles while donning a sultry J. Mendel Spring 2016 Multicolored Eyelet High Slit Midi Dress, her signature deep brown locks and classic black pointed pumps.
The semi-sheer number made its debut on the catwalk alongside strappy stiletto sandals and a slicked back ‘do. While the sultry pick screams effortless elegance, its graphic striped detailing and clean silhouette also make it the perfect piece for uplifting a bit of feminine edge.
I loved this look! If you ask me, I’d wear this hot pick in a heartbeat! But, an embellished sandal would be more my speed. But, nevertheless, Lea slayed this ‘fit!
