If your going to make a statement then it must include a seamstress or a tailor. Whichever you choose you're going to need one or the other in your persona arsenal style team. This individual can make all the difference in the world. There's the person who picks of the back dress from Saks, and then there's the person who picks it up and has it altered for the personal dimensions of their body for a style that make more of a difference.

If your going to raise the bar this year people then it must include a professional who knows measurements, fabrics, and the latest in alterations!

Yes! We have to talk about these! These will make life a little easier for you while high stepping in those heels! Ladies invest in these your feet will thank you later! I never send a client out the door without these!

A serious must have!

As a stylist many people drop me off at the salon and put me in park. Life would be boring if it ended there for me, I would be grateful but it would still be boring. As a stylist I am not only challenged with the task of mending split ends, but I am also called upon to dress many individuals for many different types of events, day time, evening, formal or a casual date with a new Mr right! SPANX'S ARE A MUST HAVE!

I purchase them for all my clients who bring me on to their lives to keep them styled for every occasion. This one foundational garment makes a huge difference in the entire appearance . Spanxs are undetectable, and comfortable. They keep the lines sleek. For plus sized women who have a little extra this is a great tool to keep the jiggles down, to keep the legs from rubbing together causing that unwanted moisture issue. This item is a true find! Once you have tried it you will be made a believer and a follower of the spanx!

Leaks

Aiight! I admit it! I watch the House wives of Atlanta! NeNe Leaks is my favorite on this particular dispensation of the show. The lady most defiantly has a serious sense of style, and the fact that she seems to know her way around a street fight aint bad either! Although I was kinda taken at a pause when she opted for the nose job I think she looks fine! I thought she was fine without the work being done, however its not me in her body that has to look in the mirror and be satisfied. If you have the money and you want it done then do what you do!

NeNe Leaks I think right now is showing great strength to women everywhere while in her current place of being in a marriage with a serious pit fall right now. She may have been knocked down but the sistah has gotten back up and she placing one foot in front of the other and she is seriously walking it out. You have to respect that, you have to encourage that, and you have to appreciate that in a woman who is having to go through this private matter while having it publicly televised for all to see on Sundays via the Bravo network!

My introduction to Ledisi

Okay Those of you who know me know I really don't follow or listen to much secular music. One reason is I feel the music is dying slowly and its like we are all watching it be murdered in slow motion but cant seem to move our feet to aid it. I was way to over impressed when I heard the sounds of a woman who took me back to my musical roots within a thirty second time frame.

LEDISI! Ladies and Gentlemen, I was floored overwhelmed and jaw dropped in one setting! This chicks voice is convicting and nurturing all at the same time, while giving sound guidance and still sever enough to slap you! In this case to be abused was okay as she embraced me and then assaulted me and then made me believe and know it was my fault as I hit the repeat button so she could do it all over again!

Lips don't lie!

Ladies! Ladies! Ladies! We are in a new year with a new opportunity to set and raise the bar!

This year I am challenging all of you to take better care of your lips, always keeping them moisturized, and adorned. If your changing your aesthetic this year to a more eye catching setting, then you can't leave the lips out! Men love the lips! Soft, juicy, lined or glossed, we dig it! For me personally the more gooey the better! "Lip Gloss" the necessity so needed that they made a song about it! Keep the lip gloss poppi'n ladies! Don't be afraid to use your liners and finish with shaded glosses or to use your lip sticks and go over top with a high glossy ooey gooey finish(lol).
