Hey everyone! After an exhaustive week, I am welcoming the weekend a LOT. To start off our weekend moves, we’ve got our Bombers! Let’s welcome Adrian from Houston:
He says, “Hello, my name is Adrian and I was born in Chicago.”
” I was raised and currently live in Houston, Texas.”
“I would describe my style as urban but with a twist of class!”
Urban is the new classy in my opinion.”
“A lot of celebrities mix urban with classy and it has become real trendy.”
“Urban-wear doesn’t necessarily just mean Timberlands, Jordans etc..”
“I’m just redefining [my version of the urban look.”
Okay Adrian! I certainly like your creative output on the growing and changing definition of urban-wear, and how you rock it! If you guys want to see more of Adrian’s attire, check him out on IG: @a__fashionkingg.

When I was younger, I remember seeing somewhere the phrase, “Beauty is what beauty is.” I’ve always carried that with me, believing that beauty comes in all shapes, sizes, forms and ways I LOVE today’s Beauty Bombshell, Carla from Los Angeles:
“At the age of 53 I put more attention on my health and having a fit body.”
“A nice brow with mascara and a little lip stick can do wonders! My fashion style is best described as classy with a whole lot of confidence!”
“When it comes to my skin, I really enjoy using coconut and sweet almond oils.”
“To maintain an even skin tone on my body ,I use Ambi fade cream only on my knees, elbows and any unwanted scar marks. Carol’s Daughters makes a Lavender & Vanilla body cream that is divine.”
“For my skin care I always use sun screen and rotate my products.”
“Currently I’m using a line by Klarif. My makeup is by Flori Roberts. I use Tan/C2 and Praline for my base and Amber for my press powder.”
“My makeup look varies with my mood. Many days I just keep it simple but when going out it’s all about the glam!”
WERK CARLA! What I love most is that you show beauty 1) starts from within, and 2) doesn’t HAVE to be crazy colors, a ton of products or anything more than the natural look. If ya’ll want to see more of Carla, head to her IG: @fabnfitbycarla. So what do you guys think?

Queen/superstar model Naomi Campbell left the entire world speechless as she attended The Serpentine Summer Party co-hosted by the legendary Tommy Hilfiger. The 46-year-old beauty wore a custom Navy and Gold Ombre Sequin Embellished Gown from the brand, flawless makeup and icy diamond accents.
This shimmery one-of-a-kind gown includes a beautiful ombre effect, a fitted waist and a plunging neckline.
The simplicity of this piece screams sartorial sophistication while the exuberant sequin embellishments allow the dress to (literally) shine!
Say what you want, Naomi KILLED this look! End of story.
Rita Ora was spotted out and about on her Instagram while uplifting a Tony Ward Couture Fall 2016 Floral Embellished Sheer Lace Jumpsuit, an lustrous black clutch and a flowy blonde ‘do.
The fashionista’s sensual ‘fit showcases a plunging neckline, dramatic sleeves and scattered red, blue and emerald floral embellishments. As seen on the runway, the model opted for peep toe platforms and minimal accessories.
Beyoncé is one of many celebrities who has made a statement on the untimely and unfortunate deaths of Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and Philando Castile in Falcon Heights, Minnesota.
“We are Sick and Tired of the Killings of Young Men and Women in our Communities.
It is up to us to take a stand and demand that they ‘Stop Killing Us.’
We don’t need sympathy.
We need everyone to respect our lives.
We’re going to stand up as a community and fight against anyone who believes that murder or any violent action by those who are sworn to protect us should consistently go unpunished.
These robberies of lives makes us feel helpless and hopeless but we have to believe that we are fighting for the rights of the next generation, for the next young men and women who believe in good.
This is a human fight. No matter your race, gender, or sexual orientation. This is a fight for anyone who feels marginalized, who is struggling for freedom and human rights.”
Hats off to Beyoncé for taking a stand and using her platform to empower.
As we reflect upon this week’s events, we must ask: What is the solution? Gun control?
Let us know your thoughts.

After only a week since Adidas partnered with the Yeezy brand, a call for recruitment has begun.
Adidas careers website is currently looking to fill 18 jobs ranging from designers, projects managers, technical management and product development at its HQ in Portland, Oregon. If you think you have what it takes (hey Communication majors!), you might also be able to apply for the Director of Brand Communications & Activation and Design Director. Of course with such illustrious roles, you’ll probably be working one on one with Ye himself, as well as fulfilling all his interesting demands and wants for the company. Sounds exciting, if you’re up for the challenge.
Let us know what you think! Know anyone who’d make a good fit to the Yeezy brand(or who can get the Editors over at FBD some of those new shoes)?
Alton Sterling and Philando Castile are now joining the ranks of Tamir Rice, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Freddie Gray, Eric Garner, Akai Gurley, Walter Scott, Laquan McDonald, and many more who have been victims of police brutality in recent years. We can only ask: WHEN WILL THIS END?
We can no longer stay silent and we can no longer continue with business as usual. Not today.
Philando Castile
In honor of the deaths of all these innocent lives, we will take a day of silence while we mourn and try to figure out what we can do to effect real change in the world.
We know our silence can’t bring back Alton Sterling, Philando Castile, Tamir Rice, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Freddie Gray, Eric Garner, Akai Gurley, Walter Scott, and Laquan McDonald. But we want our readers to know that we stand with you in the struggle and will use our platform to spread awareness and shine a light on police brutality, injustice, and obstructions of justice and civil rights.
We hope you stand with us.
Love & Light,
The Fashion Bomb Daily Team

Margot Robbie made a chic appearance as she graced the cameras for the London premiere of her new film The Legend of Tarzan where she stars in the role of Jane Porter. The actress turned heads as she donned a custom Miu Miu Spring 2016 Sheer Illusion Cutout Embroidered Gown, soft blonde curls and diamond accents.
The romance-inspired dress uplifts a towering front slit, a rounded neckline and black trimming. If you ask me, the fan embroidery was the real MVP in this look!
Margot’s co-star Alexander Skarsgard also made a dapper appearance in a tailored tux.
