Oh, I think I posted without seeing Angie's post above. Actually, her descriptors are great. Retro romantic is probably more accurate. But now I'm still confused about what bombshell *is*. I'll have to check out the other posts too.

This thread has been covered well already, but as for my comment on the blog post:

- I also noticed that the bombshell style tends to exaggerate the hourglass shape. While this isn't something I saw in Angie's outfits, I do see them in yours, mine, and many of MaryK's outfits.

- I think I also mentioned the sexy quality... but when did sexy become a bad thing? Again, I don't usually see Angie emphasizing her bustline. But I definitely prefer to wear fitted jackets and cardis for this purpose - I don't need to wear low-cut tops and show skin, but I don't want to "lose the girls" in many oversized looks, either.

- As with most things, I think there are degrees of bombshell - from Full-Tilt Marilyn Monroe Vavoom to Demure Bombshell. The bombshell quotient increases with curves emphasis, waist whittling, sex appeal, glamour, etc.

Feisty! LOL.

But somehow it's different when you do it... ;>
