Hey, y’all. Y’all good? It’s been a while since we chatted about style and clothes. Probably because none of us really dressed up for the past 2 or so years? Could be. This past weekend, we had a bridal shower for a good friend of mine. Here’s what I wore… …But wait: why couldn’t I …
Do you know what today is?
It’s my naturalversary. Eight years ago today, I drove to a salon in Maryland and told the stylist to commence with le big chop. Best decision ever. Several months before, I had decided that I was done with relaxers and straightening my hair. I’d place my fingers in my roots and feel the thick, coily …
Fabu Fashion Throwback: Dressy.
Coming back at ya with another fashion throwback to what I wore to our annual three-day religious convention. This time, we’re going back to 2018. And no surprise: my styles, again, had a theme. This time, I wanted to solely wear dresses. This was July in Texas and although we’d be inside, I just wanted …
Le Fro: Updates.
Here’s how the Le Fro is doing as of this past weekend, in my continuing efforts to grow out my hair and not eye the ✂️: Frowth. Curls galore, no? We love to see it. And this is actually a two-day wash-and-go courtesy of my stylist and good friend, who provided me with a nice, …
Fabu Fashion Throwback: Skirted.
All the way back in 2019–why does last year seem so long ago??—I attended a three-day religious convention that was all kinds of invigorating and refreshing. I really miss gathering together. Safety first, however. Anyway, planning what to wear to a special event during a Lone Star summer is always interesting. The good thing was …

Blogtober #25: The Essentials.
I went to the park yesterday. My essentials: • Mask 😷 • Sunnies 😎 • Lipstick that means nothing underneath the mask but essential for selfies 💄💋 • A sweater for the delightfully mid-50s autumnal day 🍂🍁 Hope your weekend was bon. Onwards...
Blogtober #13: Do Your Thing.
Since returning to my natural texture almost eight years ago (naturalversary is in December yay), I’ve had many, many, many hairstyles. Natural hair opened an experimentation door for me, undoubtedly; from varying lengths to color changes to everything in between, I managed to diffuse any boredom with styling and not shock my mother too much …
Blogtober #9: Styled by Zoom
Bon Friday. Some Zoom lewks over the past month. • Crochet passion twists are my newest protective style. My first time with passion twists and they’re pretty great. • My makeup for these looks: other than the lippies you see, none at all. I only wear lipstick and I’m good to go. I’m sure the …
Blogtober #5: Autumn ‘Fits.
So, I mentioned the intent to de-bum during this pandemic. It’s become a bit easier these past few days because I’ve been forced to actually get dressed and look decent for video meetings at work. All that said, largely being comfortable while working from home hasn’t stopped me from perusing Pinterest and pinning outfit inspo. …
