Hey! So the other day I taped a cool beauty video for FBD, then took a slew of meetings in the city. I feel like the past few posts have been an exploration in how many ways I can make a pink coat work. The secret? Sticking to grays, creams, and neutrals. My latest iteration included a Helmut Lang charcoal gray dress I’ve had forever. A pair of nude Christian Louboutin pumps, a Zara statement necklace, and a YSL clutch…
Spike Lee Style Diary: A Christopher Fischer Gray Mohair Sweater, Frame Denim Jeans, and a Rag & Bone Floppy Brim Fedora
Spike Lee is one of those seemingly rare artists who uses their platform to critically analyze the injustices of our society. I’ve admired his works for years, so was more than excited when I was invited to his 40 acres and a Mule work space yesterday for a breakfast. The focus of the meeting was fashion, namely two backpacks Mr. Lee created in collaboration with Sprayground. But after we got through the details of colors, zips, velour compartments, and price…
On this blog, I’m exploring so many topics, from fashion to food to films! Last night, I was treated to a screening of Chris Rock’s new movie, Top Five. Co-produced by Jay Z, Questlove, and Kanye West (snaps), the movie follows Chris Rock aka Andre Allen, a comedian whose issues with alcoholism have had an adverse effect upon his career. The long and short of it: He doesn’t feel funny without the booze, and has decided to go the ‘serious’…
Holiday Style Diary: A Saint Laurent Sheer Polka Dot Top and a Muehleder Signature Net Skirt at Mona Scott Young’s Monami Party
Happy Tuesday! So this past weekend, I attended my first holiday party of the season, courtesy of Love and Hip Hop’s Mona Scott Young. Every celebrity laced event is an opportunity for me to practice my on air interview skills, so I actually spent most of the fete on my feet, talking holiday wish lists with the bold faced names in attendance. For the occasion, I went with all black, namely a Saint Laurent sheer polka dot top and a…
December 2014 Lust List: A Rick Owens Gray Hi Lo Dress, Isabel Marant Garrison Dress, and Jimmy Choo Anouk Silver Pumps
Life is mostly unfair when it comes to fashion. For me, I obviously have a love for it, but these dern things don’t come in my size!!! So this list is truly a wish list–even if I would splurge on anything below, it’s generally unavailable: Such is the case for the Isabel Marant Garrison dress I’ve been eyeing. I’d be a size 44, but it’s sold out nationwide. The same thing happened last month with the Versace gown I wanted…and…
New York Style Diary: A Jonathan Saunders Leanne Merino Sweater, Topshop Textured Scuba Pants, and Jimmy Choo Anouk Pumps
Last night, I finally conquered my eye infection, so stepped out for a Becca Cosmetics and Doobop Talk on Beauty featuring Bevy Smith! I actually kept my glasses on just a bit more to stay on the safe side… But couldn’t get jiggy with the overall look, so shot last night’s ensemble virtually blind. See how much my eyes are squinted? I look like a mole! So sad. At any rate, I kept my look casual for the engagement, wearing…
