4th of July Style Diary: A 3.1 Phillip Lim Embellished Tank, J Brand Distressed White Jeans, and a Chanel Boy Bag

So I’m a Covergirl! The beauty brand tapped yours truly along with two other digital media mavens to be the faces of their ‘New Americans’ collection! I’ll be in charge of Instagramming how to use iconic Covergirl makeup to create new looks. On the 4th of July, I was still acting crazy in blazers and pumps, but kept my look patriotic in a 3.1 Phillip Lim Embellished Tank and J Brand Distressed Jeans. White jeans are a summer staple. Get…

New Orleans Style Diary: A Ground Zero Neoprene Jacket and Matching Skirt

I’ve never been hotter in my life than I was wearing a Ground Zero Neoprene Jacket and Matching Skirt on Day 1 in New Orleans! I should’ve known better. Though some people take the whole ‘no clothes’ thing too far in NOLA, there has to be a balance. I’ll remember that for next year! At any rate because my look was so busy, I offset it with a black American Apparel crop top and Stuart Weitzman Nudist sandals. Stuart Weitzman…

106 & Park Style Diary: A Preen Hot Pink Blazer, a Shop Candy Bomb Tee, Rag & Bone Jeans, and Givenchy Floral Pumps

So while I’ve worn skirts for my last two appearances on 106 & Park, I decided to skew more casual for my latest twirl on the TV show, rocking Rag & Bone Jeans with my Shop Candy Bomb tee. I guess I consider myself a business woman first, a journalist second, and a fashionista third! That said, even with tons of outfit ideas thrown my way, I simply couldn’t pass up the opportunity to promote my tees on a national…

Candy Bomb Apparel: Celebrating Black Icons in Fashion, Music, and Entertainment

One of the reasons I started Fashion Bomb Daily was to respond to the lack of diversity in the fashion industry. The initial goal was to highlight all those beautiful brown faces that didn’t get enough shine in traditional media. It was a born from a reverence for and appreciation of my culture, and a deep understanding that Black is Beautiful. 8 years later and I, along with illustrator Nicole Updegraff, have launched a t-shirt line with the same goal…

And Then My Dress Broke

I normally don’t share these types of tales, but today was so surreal, I had to write it down! So basically, I’ve been sick. I had some undercooked meat at a party, and what I thought was a hangover has blossomed into 3 days of me sitting in bed, running back and forth to the bathroom, and barely eating anything (which is SO unlike me). But, I’m in Milan, and was invited to the Calvin Klein show…so I told myself…

Why I Hate London Heathrow Airport

I hate London Heathrow Airport. I’ve done a lot of traveling in my day, as my Dad’s a pilot. I’ve been to China, Africa, and all over Europe, the Caribbean, and the United States. London Heathrow is the only airport that truly grinds my gears. Why? Their security screening system is preposterous. In most aiports, you can get through security with your one bag of 2 oz. bottles, and bring your makeup bag, travel sized edge control cream, and whatever…
