My love affair with jumpsuits continues. I went ahead and wore one to work today. Here it is, compliments of an empty ladies washroom. So until today, it's never dawned on me to wear a jumpsuit to work. I don't know why. I just never thought of it. Perhaps it didn't strike me as providing the …
Fabu Fashion Monday: Sunday Edition
Hi, y'all. Welcome to Monday. Let's move on before I complain about Mondays, shall we? Last night, a lifelong friend of mine and all around amazing woman/entrepreneur held her second annual International Natural Hair Awards (www.naturalhairawards.com).

Meanwhile, in Paris…Round-Up #2 (L’Homme at Pont Neuf)
So we know the Parisians exude a disaffected level of coolness that drips all over the cobble-stoned streets as they nonchalantly move past your wide, touristy eyes. Throw in their natural ability to look like images right out of the latest copy of a French fashion magazine. That said, during our trip, the disaffected, fashionable cool was …

shopgirl?
I don't know what it is about entering a store and looking through racks of clothes and trying them on that fills me with pre-root canal-esque queasiness, fear, and disdain. Most of my friends hear my "I detest shopping" complaint and are shocked that my recent weight loss didn't translate into a complete change in mindset, …

Fabu Fashion Monday: Poncho, Please.
Let me tell you about the last time I wore a poncho, which was sometime in the early 2000s: quite unnerved by the lack of actual sleeves, I wore it once and stuffed it somewhere in my drawer after ripping it off at the end of the evening. Yes, folks, my name is This Square Peg, …

Elegant? Why, Thank You. (Fabu Fashion TBT)
Hey, y'all. On Monday of this week, I wore a pencil skirt that I snagged from Nordstrom Rack (they built one by my house, so I officially bid all my money goodbye) and a peplum top that I've had for a million years. (Last Monday; therein lies the tbt.) I didn't even think about it. …

How Queens Fly.
She manages to give me Jackie O and simply Lupita all at once. Le sigh.
