Fall is here! And I’m all about fall fashion and repping brands that I love! Yesterday, I stepped out in one of my favorite Fall combos: a sweater dress by Giyea by Nina and Gianvito Rossi boots. I topped it off with a Fur Luxx jacket, and an Angie Fedora in white available at FashionBombDailyShop.com. What you get with an ambassadorships with yours truly: Professional photos, styling, makeup, and 5+ photos for you to use for you to use for…
Photoshoot with Arian Simone: Appreciation and Admiration for Women Who “Makes it Happen” Wearing Nichole Lynel and Simone I. Smith
I first met Arian Simone, CEO of Fearless Mag and Public Relations guru, while on a shoot for Ford during Essence Black Women in Hollywood. Her story of bootstrapping her career, going from sleeping in a car to working with greats such as Will Packer, Chris Brown, and more, was inspiring–and reminded me a lot of myself. We got along swimmily and were each other’s ‘wing women’ during the BWIH festivities, acting as each other’s camera woman while snapping every…
It’s Ok to Ask; Don’t be Afraid of People: Lessons from Paris Vogue Wearing Zara Plaid and Gianvito Rossi Heels on Fleet Alley’s Rainbow Wall in Brooklyn
When I was in an intern at Paris Vogue, I was tasked with finding street style Vogue and Glamour Paris. I had to go out and ask complete strangers to take their pictures. It was there that I experienced loads of rejection and lots of ‘No’s’ to the point where hearing no doesn’t even phase me anymore. Closed mouths don’t get fed. Today, I had the goal of having a total stranger indulge me in a photo shoot by this…

The Bomb Life 101: Never Eat Alone; in a Robert Rodriguez Top, BCBG Pants, Gianvito Rossi Pumps, and a Mandrick Paris ‘Red Bottom’ Hat
There is a book by Keith Ferrazzi called Never Eat Alone: And Other Secrets to Success, One Relationship at a Time. The premise is simple: relationships and meetings matter, so take time to grab coffee, lunch, or dinner to trade ideas and see how each party can help the other grow. I first bought the book when I was way younger, working in a more corporate environment. Though I tried to always plan lunch with someone, most of my lunches…

NYFW Is Approaching and I’m Unprepared! Wearing a Zara Turtleneck, Kenzo Scuba Skirt, and Gianvito Rossi Black and White Pumps
So New York Fashion Week starts tomorrow. Flashback a few years ago and I would’ve had my special #NYFW rack already erected with my outfits carefully planned out. A color coded schedule would have populated my desk. My couch would be piled high with accessories. But this year–nada. Maybe I just have too much going on! Or maybe I’m a little more relaxed these days. Maybe I have less to prove. One would think that after 10 years, I’d have…
Bad and Boujee Style Diary: A By Malene Birger Black Sequin Turtleneck, Michael Kors Black Sequin Pants, and a Jennifer Le Bomb Stole
So my homegirl Cash invited me out to a Migos event aptly titled ‘Bad and Boujee.” Cocktail attire was suggested, so I slipped on a sequined black turtleneck by Malen Birger, Michael Kors sequined pants, and my favorite Jennifer Le Bomb stole: I added silver accents: Gianvito Rossi perspex pumps and a disco ball inspired bag I got at 9jBX: I’m sure you’re wondering by now: Where’s your picture with Migos? Welll…the event started at 8 and by 9:30, they…
