My Fashion Obsession: Black And White Fashion

Image
Well, this Blog Post is not going to do itself. Happy Sunday to all of my Fashion Lovers, I hope that you are doing well and always being Fashionable while you're doing so. The Fashion cycle is a interesting thing for us Fashion Lovers to study. Fast Fashion will come and go, but the classics will always stay in style. From stripes, to pastels, to animal prints, to polka dots, to floral prints, and bold colors. But this Fashion classic that we all know and love will stand the test of time and will never be out of style. My mother said when I was a baby I had a Black And White blanket and the Black And White obsession began. Black And White Fashion is effortless and chic, You can't go wrong with this timeless trend. Everyone should have a Black And White dress, a leather jacket, a handbag, a pair of heels, boots, flats, and even denim and much more. Black And White go so well together and not only that, you can pair this trends with other things as well. Express ha...

On My Perfume Wishlist: Viktor And Rolf Flowerbomb

Image
Well hello my Beauty Lovers and Happy Thursday to you all. I hope that you had a great day and your makeup was flawless. I always felt that perfume is the finishing part of any girl's outfit. My first memory of perfume is when I was a little girl with my mother. Everytime we would go somewhere, she would wear perfume. whether is was going to church, to the grocery store, or even when she was wearing sweatpants and a T-shirt she would wear perfume. There's one perfume that I don't know the name of that perfume that she would wear all the time and when I still smell it to this day, it brings me back to when I was a little girl. Perfume is a way that people will remember you, it becomes apart of who you are, a signature that no one will ever forget about you. As many of you know, Viktor And Wolf is one of my favorite Fashion Designers ever. Their designs are not like anything that I've seen. But how I got introduced to them was through their first perfume, Flowerb...

My Fashion Obsession: White Booties

Image
In my world, Fashion never sleeps. Happy Thursday to all of my Fashionable People. I hope that you all are doing well today and wearing something wonderful while doing so.  I have a Fashion Confession to tell you guys about, I have a phobia of white shoes. I feel that they are the first to show wear and tear the worst. I also feel that you have to walk around with a security guard or protective wrapping to make sure that they stay crisp, clean, and white until I read in the People Stylewatch Magazine in 2017 that White Booties are back by popular demand. White Booties reminds so much of the 80's where Fashion had no rules. I love seeing my favorite Fashion Bloggers styled their White Booties with Jeans, Dresses, Leather Jackets, Menswear inspired Blazers and much more. I started to let go my White shoe phobia and started to let it influence me into buy myself a pair of White booties. I'm 29 years old and I really want to experiment with my style and wear things that I ...

I'm In Love With Midi Skirts

Image
Is it really Tuesday again, Happy Tuesday Fashionable People and welcome back to my Blog. I hope that you all doing well and be fashionable while you doing so. I'm absolutely obsessed with Midi Skirts. Why is that, well it's quite simple honestly it a piece of Fashion that is seasonless, they can be dress up or down and it offered in every print, color, and every finish that they can come in. I love the length of the Midi Skirt which is perfect to wear to work if you work at a business casual environment. They are so ladylike and feminine. The Midi Skirt is a versatile piece of fashion that you should have in your closet. You can wear this in the Spring and Summer with a fitted bodysuit and strappy heels.  You can wear this with a sweater in the Wintertime with some booties and simple jewelry. This trend in my opinion won't be slowing down anytime soon.  Forever 21 I think is everybody's favorite Fashion store and website for their on trend fashions. I saw this...

Slipping Into My Slip Dress

Hello again to all of my fellow Fashion lovers. I hope that you all enjoying you lazy Sunday afternoon and being Fashionable while doing so.  I absolutely love seeing things that are from different eras of Fashion are being brought back for us to see on the runways, from our favorite Fashion Bloggers and looking through our Fashion Magazines.  if you be living under a rock lately, 90's Fashion is back in a huge way. This phase of Fashion has been on the runways for a few seasons now and I must say, I love it all. But there's one piece of 90's Fashion that will stand test of time and will always be in Fashion. The Slip Dress is the perfect mix of classy and sexy all wrap up in one. It's reminds me of your sexiest night gown that your can wear out in public. My first memory of me seeing this trend is when I saw Kate Moss wearing one a Red Carpet. Another memory of the Slip Dress is when I saw Courtney Love wearing one to the 1993 MTV Video And Music. I love seein...

My Favorite Black Owned Make-Up Brands: Mented Cometics

Image
Are you just as obsessed with  the latest beauty trends, products, and tips as much as I am. Hello my Beauty Lovers and welcome back to another Beauty Blog Post for this Thursday. I'm so happy to see a lot of up and coming African and Latina owned Beauty brands that are out on the market. I love that they are getting the recognition from many Beauty Influencers that will help their company in the future. Being a Beauty Blogger, I love hearing about different Beauty Brands from my favorite makeup artists, reading through my favorite magazines, and looking through social media. I always felt that every woman should have makeup that feel beautiful and confident in their skin and enhance their features not cover them up.  I found out about Mented Cosmetics when I was reading a article on the Essence Magazine Website in June, I love the clever way that they took their name from the word Pigmented. Mented Cosmetics was founded by two women KJ Miller and Amanda E. Johnson. T...

Don't Be Jealous Of My Kitten Heels

Image
Who doesn't love a new Blog Post on a Tuesday. I hope you are feeling stylish. I'm so happy to back with all my Fashion Lovers and talk about the latest Fashion trends and Fashion Trends from yesteryear that I'm still loving.  In 2018, Kitten Heels was the hottest shoes trends that came into Fashion. What comes to mind when I say the words, "Kitten Heels". I feel that Kitten Heels get a bad rap in the Fashion World. For some people, Kitten Heels should not be considered heels. Some people like the whole Kitten Heels because of their tiny heel and comfortability. I talked to my mother about this trend and she said that she liked in fact, my mother owns a few pairs herself. She also told me that some heels don't look right with a high heels. My own personal two cents on this trend is this, Don't knock it until you try it. You never know what Fashion Trends you might love unless you try it out for yourself. As I get older I realized that instead of talki...

My Fashion Obsession: Menswear

Image
Another Sunday, Another Fashion Blog Post. Happy Sunday to all of my Fashion Lovers and I hope that you all doing well and wearing something that makes you feel radiant from the inside out. My obsession with Menswear started when I saw my first silent movie on Turner Classic Movies and I saw Charlie Chaplin wearing a suit with a top hat. I thought to myself, why women can't wear a suit and be stylish. My vision was realized when I saw Katherine Hepburn wearing a menswear trouser. She stay true to her androgynous style and made NO apologies for that at all ( A woman after my own heart). In today's Fashion, Women are wearing are menswear and I'm totally obsessed with this endless trend. I love when a woman wears a suit and completely make it look absolutely chic.  Katherine Hepburn can wear a suit like nobody else. She and Grace Jones was the first two women that made androgynous look cool. I love this outfit that she's wearing in this picture, she's wearin...

My Make-Up Wish List Item: Tartelette In Bloom And Tartelette Toasted Eyeshadow Palette

Image
Hello Beauty Lovers and Happy Thursday to you all. I hope that you all had a great day and your makeup was absolutely flawless. My make-Up journey started when I was 19 years old when I watched a YouTube video and I saw this woman literally transform herself into a beautiful woman. At the time, I was still was finding confidence inside of myself. I still remember buying my first eyeshadow palette, it was a trio of bright color and the immediate thought of me buying it was, Now Bree, you know that those are NOT your colors and my gut feeling was right on the money. I started to gravitate to neutral colors and I was in love with every neutral palette that I saw on any and every beauty website I was on.  Tarte was introduced to me when I was looking through a Fashion Magazine and I heard a Beauty Blogger raving about their brand. So as a researcher at heart, I looked into their brand and I loved them ever since. Their Make-Up is Cruelty Free, Vegan, Formulated without Gluten ...

Just Pleating Around

Image
Hello again to all of my Fashion Lovers and Happy Tuesday to you all. I hope that you doing well and wearing something that makes you feel your absolute best.  Pleated Skirts are one of my favorite pieces of the Spring and Summer. It's just represents what Spring and Summer Fashion should be, Light and Airy. Another thing that I love about this trend is that this piece of Fashion is that it's seasonless. You can wear this in the Spring and Summer with a White Off The Shoulder shirt, in the Fall and Winter with a thick sweater and midi booties or I've seen girls wearing the pleated skirt with Adidas sneakers to completely keep it causal.   SheIn is one of my favorite bargain Fashion websites that never let me down when it comes to finding runway inspired pieces or something cool that I need in my closet. I saw this Black box pleated skirt on their website. The sizes range from Small To Large, I wished that they would offer it in Plus Size. I picture myself wearing...

Me And My Bucket Hat

Image
It's Sunday, why can't I be Fashionable. Hello again and Happy Sunday again to my Fashion Lovers. I hope that you are relaxing and being Fashionable. I was born in the 90's ( 1990 to be exact). And as of late 90's Fashion has really been having a true moment in Fashion. We have seen 90's Fashion all over in our favorite Fashion Magazines, all of our favorite Fashion Bloggers, and looking up 90's Fashions pictures for inspiration for our own looks. But there's one item of 90's Fashion that literally goes synonyms with the 90's.  The Bucket Hat has been everywhere for a couple season now, I remember seeing LL Cool J wearing them in the 80's. It's such a throwback from a decade in Fashion that was just fun and carefree. My older sister had one, my mother used to have a Pink one that she would wear all of the time. My  uncle would be sure that it was apart of his wardrobe. In the Alexander Wang Spring/Summer 2016 Ready-To-Wear Collection...

Summer Make-Up Trends

Image
I would like to say Happy Thursday to all of my fellow Beauty Lovers. I hope that you wore the Reddest of Red Lipstick, the most feminine perfume that you own, and your curls or braids made you walk with a little pep in your step  Today's Blog Post is all about the Summer Make-Up Trends that I'm obsessed with. I feel that for the Summer Make-Up should be fun and practical. When I read through the magazines when I was growing up, I've always seen that the Summer Make-Up was all about the fun and bold colors which was a great transition from the Fall and Winter dark colors that are always on trend. Orange Lips has been always been on trend for the Summer for the longest time. What I absolutely love about this Summer Make-Up trend is that it looks amazing on every single skintone. I remember seeing this trend back in 2015 in a Fashion Magazine that I was reading at the time.  For my Girly Girls, This one is for you. Pink Smoky Eyes are a fun transition fr...
