Happy Tuesday!

This past Saturday, CWC stormed into Atlanta for an informative brunch panel, shopping, and sips at the Gathering Spot.




Our annual fashion networking event kicked off with a comedic intro by our host Lala Milan, followed by discussions on branding featuring ATL influencers, executive, and celebs Cynthia Bailey, Kim Blackwell, Alonzo Arnold, Jeremy Haynes, and Ariaka Autry.





With a dress code of ‘logo love,’ our conversations focused on branding: What is your brand? What makes a strong brand? What distinguishes your brand from someone else’s? Cynthia offered that she only pursues projects that she is passionate about, hence her candle, eyewear, and bag brands. She uses her wonderful platform on Real Housewives of Atlanta to promote her products, which marry great quality with affordability.


Kim Blackwell honed in on the importance of authenticity and hard work.


Alonzo Arnold, Jeremy Haynes, and Ariaka Autry focused on customer service and producing a superior product.
The conversations were great!


Afterwards, Bombers and Bombshells shopped from our participating vendors, including Shop Diamont Noir, Arrived Fashion Boutique, Shop Oyemwen, Kloset Threads, House of High End, Opulence Financial Group, and A Daily Diva.


We also had to take pix!!


Check out some stand out looks:

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
