Lets talk about conditioners

So I’ve been thinking about my holiday hair and what style I’m looking to achieve.   I’m thinking of wearing it down with some bouncy curls after a nice roller set.  I’ve also gone conditioner crazy these past few weeks as well. But no matter what a conditioner promises to do to my [...]

Before their time: Donyale Luna

As many interested in fashion know, it has not gone unnoticed that fashion has suffered from a lack of diversity in the past few years.  A few months ago, American Vogue had an article titled, “Is Fashion Racist”, which featured Chanel Iman, Jourdan Dunn and Arlenis Sosa.

Magazines and What Once Was

So today was supposed to be my much anticipated (as it is every week) “wash day”. And I don’t mean for clothes, either. It’s the day that I use a better part of my day focusing on washing, conditioning and styling my hair. It became a weekly tradition once I decided [...]

First post

So this is my first post on this blog.   Hopefully, this will be my little place of the web to carve out and express thoughts on whatever comes to mind.  Pop culture, fashion, travel, the city of Chicago and everything in between.
I always wanted a blog, but I felt like everyone had one and there [...]
