“The power suit is a vital component of any man’s wardrobe regardless of his profession because it serves as his modern day suit of armor. A power suit demands to be in dark shades of blue, charcoal, and a very dark brown with an exquisite silk tie in deep, rich tones…” Hop on google, and that’s the description you’ll find of a power suit (if this sounds like the introduction to a junior high school essay, bear with me).

Happy Monday, Bombers and Bombshells! As I type, I am staring at the Gateway Arch in St. Louis Missouri! Yesterday, I gave a keynote at St. Louis Women who Brunch! The day prior, I had a book signing at Nesh NYC (15 Gansevoort Street), with a conversation moderated by June Ambrose.

Hey Guys! Running to a bunch of meetings (that I will probably be late for), but wanted to share this fun video from Conversations with Claire, Philadelphia: Big shout out to Yusef Dingle, who not only took pictures from the event, but also took video, and cut and edited said video in no time! Yasss! At any rate, I hope you enjoy. See some of you in NYC this Saturday. I’m off,…
