Over the years, I’ve heard of so many fashion rules of how to wear or how not to wear this item or that item.   In breaking these rules, you’d garner a look that let you know that you’ve stepped out of fashion bounds and you have to step back in.  For me, I don’t really [...]

Although I’ve been on my self-inflicted shopping ban for awhile, I have allowed myself to indulge in a couple of goodies other than Swifter Sweeper pads.  No big purchases, but just small things that put a smile on my face when I bought them.   And sometimes, that’s all you need.
Vanilla Meringues from Whole Foods.  Still [...]

Not sure about you, but I really can’t believe that it’s the end of July already.  August will be here shortly and that means that Fall is right around the corner.  Fall is actually my favorite season.  Not too cool and not too warm and it’s the perfect timing to start wearing boots again.   In [...]

Being the consistent procrastinator that I am, I waited until the last minute to visit the Chic Chicago exhibit at the Chicago History Museum.   The exhibit has been showing since last year and it will be ending on Monday, so I thought right about now would be a perfect time to take my butt down [...]

If you haven’t seen it already, Vogue Paris has created a very impressive 64-page spread in their August issue featuring 64 looks from 64 brands.  Each of the looks represents what the brand embodies and in my opinion, they do it quite well.   Shot by Inez and Vinoodh, the brands range from Balmain to Chloe [...]

One of the items I look most forward to wearing in the fall are tights.  I know you can wear them in the summer, but I’ve never really felt comfortable doing so or I’ve never felt like I really knew how .
Once fall rolls around and the leaves start hitting the ground, the chilly weather [...]

I’ve always been interested in the contents of one’s medicine or beauty cabinet.   I’m always curious to know what products someone uses on their hair, skin, and face.   When I first saw this picture of Sofia Coppola’s medicine cabinet in French Vogue,  I thought, “Whoa”.  But then again, who am [...]

A bit of a new beginning for me all together. Still a work in progress, but I’ve changed the look up a little bit. There might be some more changes here and there in the next couple of weeks as I get “settled in”, so I’m please excuse the
This summer has been somewhat [...]

As many people know, Vibe magazine, which was launched by Quincy Jones in 1993, shut down immediately on Tuesday.  There was a statement from Vibe Editor-in-Cheif Danyel Smith that was released  about the closing of the magazine:
On behalf the VIBE CONTENT staff (the best in this business), it is with [...]
