FASHION BRIEFS

Do y'all remember crushed velvet from the '90s? I'm so glad it made a comeback! It is soooo luxurious! Mostly a womenswear feature, crushed velvet was a popular fabric for dresses and shirts back then and they are here for the comeback. That should not be a surprise for my lovelies that follow fashion trends because weird fabrics are all the rage today. As rich and luxe as the velvet fabric itself, so were the bold colors that were spotted on the New York Fashion Week runwa

Once upon a time, faux fur was a faux pas. I remember growing up and my mom's era of women would gag at the thought of it. It had such a bad reputation in the ’90s. Back then, faux fur was typically made of cheap polyester, but now, most are made with a plush, real-feeling modacrylic blend. Now there are so many brands (both designer and high-street) that are using this blend. So now, we finally have a variety of good-quality faux fur for those who have moral reasons for not

Some call these the mermaid skirts, trumpet skirts, peplum-hem skirts, or flutter Skirts-it all means the same thing. And if you don't already own one, I'm about to tell you real quick why you should. This skirt is so sexy yet so classy. It covers well while flaunting the derriere and gives you a very shapely figure. It is a simple and elegant trend that is good for all body types and shapes. Whether you are tall or short, slim or curvy, this is a MUST for your wardrobe thi

I know everyone loves denim but what about when you want the casual feel of denim but more breathability? Denim print is the answer! That's one reason I fell in love with this stunning maxi dress! When the lovely owner of Fashion Frenzy ATL sent me this dress, I was nothing short of awed. I love unique pieces and this beautiful maxi dress is no exception. The denim print decorates woven poly as it shapes a princess seamed, surplice bodice maxi dress, framed by fluttering l

Today let us take a look at Spring 2017's hottest hue– the color YELLOW. From eye-popping banana, to canary, and sulphur lemon through to spicy tumeric and chinoiserie gold, yellow power colors radiate an optimistic message during this current season! So of course, I had to show you all how I rocked it recently and hope it serves as inspiration! In this outfit, I wore a sunshine yellow puff sleeve top, dark blue jeans, and a ponytail/scarf tied around my neck as an ascot. I

When you think feathers on clothing, you typically think formalwear, right? For as long as I can remember, such luxurious accents have long been reserved for special nights out when couture evening gowns and glittering minaudière took the place of your comfy sweats and relaxed tees--but all of that is changing! Be prepared for current fashion to ruffle your feathers. Feathers are no longer just for costumes or haute couture. Feathers have gone mainstream. Those whimsical plu

Did you know that if you dream of walking through a green and luxurious corn field, it signifies happiness and true friends? This summer, my boyfriend, who is a very talented photographer (call me biased, LOL!) made a suggestion to shoot one of my looks we were doing for my new website in a luscious cornfield.
