Shenell_edits2--5_-_Copy[1]

Today’s Bombshell is Shenell who hails from “The Windy City”, Chicago!

Shenell writes “I am plus size blogger of So Shenell. Strutting in my second year as a blogger, I continue to not be threatened to conform to the perception of what “experts” deem fashionably appropriate for my body.”

SHENELL_FLORAL-[1]


“In addition, neither is it my prerogative to be compelled to “wear what I want” for the sake of rebelling against society, rather than wear what looks amazing on me and force society to conform to my perception of fashion.”

SHENELL_white_REDO-_(1)[1]

“Therefore my style is feminine, daring, distinct, and poised- all clothed in curves.”

” As a blogger and full figured gem, my purpose is to commit to my mission of convincing women like myself, to believe she is “not a prisoner of her body” (you will never be).

“I will be the blogger who is not defined by her size but whom all sizes will be mesmerized by her poise.”

“I am most grateful to Fashion Bomb Daily for giving me the opportunity to share my love for fashion and the curvy life with all of you.”

Summer 2016 Style Inspiration: 4 Fab Summer to Fall Outfit Ideas

It’s almost time to say goodbye to summer and welcome fall with open arms. I for one am so ready for sweater weather, but the transition from summer to fall can be a bit tricky. The trick to updating your wardrobe is all in the layering, so today I’ve curated four fabulous outfit ideas to transition your look with a few of the season’s most notable trends.

Update your bomber jacket with an off-the-shoulder twist. Add layers with a standard button down shirt and faux leather leggings.

Add the finishing touch with a small monogram chain bag, black ankle-strap sandals, and silver jewelry.

The old rule of “no white after Labor Day” is long gone. Rework your summer whites into a casual fall look with a distressed white tee paired with white ripped skinny jeans and a khaki trench coat.
