This is Chiwetel Ejiofor. There's not much else to say here. I love him and it's Friday. Bon weekend, mes amis...
slay-o’clock.
Well, it was bound to happen. I fell off the wagon. I went back 100 steps. I lost the mojo. In other words: I returned to my sloppily-dressed ways. I've mentioned to you that way back in the day, because of weight and lack of self-esteem and not really knowing who I was as a …
“edge control”?Â
Who are the scientists or hairologists that create the gel for those of us with edges that have temperamental minds of their own? They need to work harder. Because people like me with edges like me laugh at these gels, these silly things that do absolutely nothing to tame these rebellious follicles that rest on …
because it’s Wednesday.
Because repetition is often the best teacher. Because he is always and forever bae. Because broken record status is the best place to be. Because look at that face. (My goodness.) Because come on. Because black is the color of my true love's hair. Happy Wednesday.
Fabu Fashion Tuesday: What is that? Velvet?
If you know that line from Coming to America, then yes, you belong here. So yes, I wore a velvet dress this past weekend for a special worship event. This is notable because I've never worn the fabric. Not even when it was the it thing to wear in the 90s. (By the way, a …

Blogvember #30: The Final Day.
Well, dears, today ends 30 days of Blogvembering. Went by pretty fast, no? I enjoyed every minute of it, even those moments when I was about to drift off into sleep and recalled with panic that I forgot to blog. And I admit to cheating when those times happened by combining days, but a blog …
Blogvember #23: because it’s Wednesday.
Do I really need to explain this choice for because it's Wednesday? Just stare into those eyes if you need extra convincing. While you do that, I'll continue to quietly fulfill my duties as the president of the Chris Hemsworth fan club.
Blogvember #16: because it’s Wednesday.
Since L.A. Law, when I watched law shows and believed I had a future as an attorney based on what I saw in televised courtrooms. Anyway, that's how long I've given my endless devotion to Sir Chocolate himself, a.k.a. Blair Underwood. Oh and he's 52. And doesn't look a day over 35. Yep: totally Benjamin Buttoning …
Blogvember #14: Le Fro and Le Chapeau.
I'm quite happy to inform you that I bought a chapeau (hat) this weekend. Of course, discovering that le fro (also referred to as She) could handle hats isn't new; I discussed that wonderful revelation here. And yet those reservations about hats and fros and large heads don't entirely go away, do they? We need …
