Appearance Is Everything
The internet fairy-god fairies are telling me you want to know more about how to dress like a lady. Fabulous. Since I have so much to say about the subject, I’m introducing my first blog series to you, “How to Dress Like a Lady” – in steps. I’m passionate about this because I feel like [...]
There’s something aesthetically-stimulating about reading women’s interest magazines. I sift through Elle & Allure religiously and never forget to renew my annual subscriptions. I’ll admit that even checking out at CVS is an eye candy-ish experience when I glance at all the new seemingly-flawless faces on the covers of each magazine so perfectly positioned on [...]
Last week, I wore it natural to my interview. I thought twice, maybe 3 times about going without a corporate-America-approved look – without a flat-ironed and full-of-fabricated-body hairdo. For the past few months, I’ve been sure to straighten my hair for business meetings or interviews when I’m being introduced to people for the first time. [...]
When choosing a garment, most fashion stylists advise clients to accentuate their most proud bodily asset and cover the rest – exposing one section of the frame at a time. While I agree that your ensemble should have a respectable balance of skin and fabric, I am a firm believer in leaving your ladyparts – [...]
I’m in love with Olivia Pope’s style right now. I mean, Kerry Washington’s. No, I mean Olivia Pope’s, although I haven’t noticed that Kerry Washington’s is drastically different from Ms. Pope’s. So I’m in love with both of them. Everyone I know, male and female, is all the rave about the show, Scandal. I literally [...]
I never get too wrapped up in Hollywood’s “Best Dressed” lists. Simply because I think the award should go to the stylist, since they do the dressing anyway. There’s one lady, however, who I think is one of the few exceptions to this philosophy. She’s also one of my favorite actresses: Tracee Ellis Ross. [...]
I noticed this trend during the spring and fall shows: fruit & veggies in fashion. I mean, literally. Normally when you think of fruit, you think of something edible found in a pretty bowl centered on your dining room table, outside in glass flutes during a summer soiree, or better yet in your mouth. Veggies [...]

It’s the end of my favorite holiday – Fashion Week! I’ve been glued to my Mac watching every show YouTube’s live runway has to offer. Some of my favorite shows have modeled not only apparel, but societal attitudes also. This really is no surprise as fashion is ALWAYS a reflection of the times. But I [...]
I have been studying “Wonderwomen” for a long time. I’ve noticed them my entire life, and continually strive to be one of them. They’re rare, hard to come by and even harder to dissect. You can’t spot them out by what they’re wearing exactly, but you can decipher who doesn’t fit their criteria by what [...]
