Mail Bombs

Hey!
I'm off this lovely Friday before Memorial Day Weekend, so I'm making this quick!
Let's get started.
First up, reader Sheria fell in love with Christina Milian's one shoulder number...
...she says, "Can you please help me find her look!?!"
I thought the following frocks gave off a Christina M essence:
1. Aqua Women's One Shoulder Dress, $78, www.bloomingdales.com. 2. Ella Moss Black Label Samantha Dress, $268, www.shopbop.com. 3. Laundry by Design One Shoulder Short Dress, $164, www.bloomingdales.com.
In another Christina Milian Mail Bomb, Natasha says, "I have a family get together coming up in New York and I really want to wear this dress to dinner..."
".. .I searched and found out that its made by H&M but they don't have it anymore. Can you please help I'm in desperate need!!"
Sure. The closest thing I could find was this BCBG Strapless Jacquard Dress...
...it could work with some tailoring! Get it for $320 at www.saks.com.
Nyasha from Georgia writes, "I am desperately trying to find an affordable short sleeved leather jacket and everywhere I look the price is pretty astronomical. I've seen Rihanna rocking a black one lately but cannot afford it...."
"Please Please Please help me, I'm heading back up to the northeast soon and its still a little chilly here and there. I would like to be fashionably comfortable. Please help I'm desperate for one of these jackets!!!"
A fashion emergency indeed, huh? Well you're right, most cropped leather jackets are a bit pricy. Lucky you, I found some options under $300:
1. Pepe Short Sleeved Leather Jacket, $300, www.asos.com. 2. Leather Moto Jacket, $98, www.ardenb.com. 3. Cropped Leather Jacket, $129, www.newportnews.com.
Finally, some Fashion Bomb Real Style subjects were getting lots of inquiries from readers!
Tia says, "I think her pants are so cute in this pic!!"
"...Can you please help me find some???"
The closest thing I could find were these $395 Wide Jodphur pants...
...from www.emporioarmani.com. Apparently there's a cheaper version at H&M. Log onto www.hm.com for store locations. 
Several people wrote in admiring this young lady's ruffle top:
Turns out she's wearing none other than this $260 Thread Social Ruffle Knit Double Top...
...from www.intermixonline.com.
And lastly a reader wrote in a comment to my JC Report Relaunch Party Post. She says, "I couldn't help but notice the young lady to your right..."
"... Her dress is to DIE for (well for me anyway)! Where can I get this?"
Miss Meghan is so fashionable! She's wearing this Cynthia Rowley V-Neck Silk Taffeta Dress...
...get it at www.cynthiarowley.com.
That does it!
Have fun, long, luxurious weekends!
Smootches!
