Claire’s Life: Meeting Gayle King and Adam Glassman at a Pandora Event + Don’t be Afraid to Say Hi

Hello Lovelies! Happy Monday! I am currently in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Why? It’s one of my bestie’s birthdays, and she is a student at Wake Forest. I normally miss her birthday because I’m in Milan for Fashion Week, but this year, I decided to take a break and just go somewhere nice and quiet where I can get work done. Writing a book is not easy, and a holiday deadline is killer!! So I’m currently typing away in a quiet…

Claire’s Life: Locs, Dreadlocks, and the Pitfalls of False Perception

I decided to loc my hair over 10 years ago. I had been a huge fan of box braids, but when I went up to Cambridge to attend Harvard College, finding someone to braid my hair proved both time consuming and expensive. I figured: braids look good on me, so why not try locs? It’s my hair, it seemed as if the opportunity for hair growth was endless, and I could maintain it myself! Sold. I also went through this…

The Bomb Life 101: Always Be Prepared (You Never Know Who You’ll Meet)

Happy Wednesday, folks! Excuse my absence yesterday. I was doing my expenses, and it literally consumed every minute of my time (and I’m still not done…!). We’ll save that for another post. For today, I wanted to say: Always be Prepared. I was invited last minute to a Revolt TV x Urban World Film Festival dinner, forgetting that I had another meeting at the same time. I would’ve gotten my makeup done for the dinner, but figured my meeting was…

The Bomb Life Tip: Maximize Time by Writing in the Back of an Uber (in Marc Jacobs and Iylia’s Killian Silver & Snake Sandals)

I’ve got a lot of writing on my plate. Drafts for blog posts are due. And oh yes, I’m writing a book. Thus, I now use an Uber as my third office. I get comfy in the back seat. Turn my phone into a hot spot. Request that the driver put on 105.1. And it’s business as usual. How do you maximize time in your day to day life? Love + Light, *I’m wearing an Altuzarra x Target top and…

The Bomb Life 101: It’s OK to Take a Day and Just Do You in A 5:31 Jerome 9J BX Narratives Patch Denim Jacket (Flowers, Tigers, and Snakes, So Fly)

New York Fashion Week is OVAH (does a praise dance and the tootise roll!). I love Fashion. Lord knows I do. But as I get older, Fashion Week just sucks the life out of me. And I can’t do the things I normally like to do like…exercise, eat well, and get sleep! So today, I slept in honey, and it felt so good. And now, even though my friends are asking me to come over and eat curry chicken or…

Talking #NYFW on #VH1Live

Happy Friday, folks! So last night, I appeared on #VH1Live to talk #NYFW and fashion faves with Marc Lamont Hill, Adrienne Moore, and Brian Henry. I was the resident ‘blogger’ on set (like my sticker?). I offered my two cents on my favorite and least favorite looks from New York Fashion Week. I get nervous every single time, but I’m getting better! Did you watch? Love + Light! Claire *I wore a Zara jacket, American Apparel tank, Rayar Bombshell Jeans,…
