Hello Lovelies, FAMILY IS EVERYTHING! Last month my family established a new tradition that I’m simply over the moon about. I hosted The First Annual Ultimate Fashionista Tea for all the ladies in my family. We are small and like many other families, over the years we have loss what I call our anchors. These anchors were the ladies and gentlemen who always kept our family together from as long as I can remember. This has concerned me deeply and I have been wanting to do something special for quite some time. I prayed about it and God placed it on my heart to host this tea party to bring our family closer, fellowship, as well as honor our elder ladies which include my dear mama, her two sisters, and a cousin. All I can say is God showed up, showed out! Everyone was mesmerized by two special and talented sister friends who blessed us with their gifts from God. Minister Edith Berry of Prolific Epic Partners based in Raleigh, NC performed a beautiful mime, and Sister Jacqueline Price Williams based in Chesapeake, VA performed beautiful praise dances. Both ladies were a blessing, and their anointed performances left a permanent mark of peace, love and serenity in our hearts. Overall, the day was a huge success and blessing to everyone! Words can’t express how honored I was to be in the presence of such royal and stylish ladies who I’m blessed to be able to call my family. I thank each and everyone who attended, performed, and assisted in any way. Most of all I thank God for using...

Happy Memorial Day! I hope everyone is having a safe and enjoyable holiday. If you’ve been following me, you know a few weeks ago I had a photo session with Daniel J Studios and featured “When Art Meets Fashion – Part 1” on my blog. I talked about how amazing the shoot was, and how important it is to have someone capture your work so that it’s presented correctly. Today I’m happy to share Part 2 of the shoot, and I hope you will find it equally amazing! This set reminded me of an enchanted forest, and what came to mind is how we sometimes miss the forest for the trees. A forest is full of beautiful trees for the beholding but when we get so engrossed in the individual trees, we can forget that each tree is merely one of thousands in the forest and lose sight of what really matters. Let’s not forget to take a deep breath, take a step back and evaluate the bigger picture in the grand scheme of things. The ability to not see the bigger picture from God’s point of view can cause us to be stressed, frustrated and unhappy. Happy people have a larger perspective and see the big picture. No matter what’s going on in our lives we must feel confident that God is working out a plan.

Happy Saturday everyone! Did you watch the Royal Wedding? Since I wasn’t invited I decided to feature a look fit for attending such a historical event. A trend among royal family buffs in recent years is fascinators. These little hats were popularized by the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton, and are called fascinators because they actually attach to the head. I’m a lover of hats and have many, but this whimsical fascinator by Giovannio Hats is one of my all time favorites. I chose this chiffon polka dot white dress by Light In The Box because its unique appearance is sophisticated, classic, fun and modern at the same time. This timeless print will never go out of style. If you watched the wedding what are your thoughts and who do you think was best dressed? Have a great rest of the weekend and continue to be royal!

Greetings everyone, I hope your week is going well so far. I launched my blog six years ago, and during my blogging career I’ve been blessed to work with some of the most amazing photographers. My fashion styling and blogging business is my ministry, and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt God has connected me with these great talents who have truly brought out the best in me. It’s one thing to style and blog, but if you don’t have the right eyes to present your work correctly you have nothing. A few weeks ago a shoot happened which was simply a work of art! I had the absolute honor to work with Daniel Hadley of Daniel J Studios, based in Wilmington, NC. Daniel is a fashion bloggers dream photographer! For example, he listened to my desires and expectations for the shoot, found me the most AMAZING backdrops, had patience during the shoot and made it fun, and also directed me to pose in various ways that made me look fabulous. He even hurt his leg during our shoot, and was so unbothered, but still finished the shoot like a BOSS! 🙂 The icing on cake was discovering Daniel is man of God and devout Christian who is using his God-given gifts to save money to build a church in Wilmington. I love how Daniel honors the Lord in everything he does, and I pray for his business to continue to endure and be successful by God’s grace. Since there were so many beautiful photos from the shoot, I decided to do a blog in two parts. ...

Hey Lovelies, Who else is ready for a vacation besides me? Lately I’ve been daydreaming about going back to the French Rivera, so what better way to live out my dreams than to provide style inspiration on what to wear to this dreamy French region, also known as Côte d’Azur. First things first… You HAVE to take a straw hat! It’s just a requirement since you’ll be soaking up the sun. It’s also necessary to protect your hair and skin (particularly on your face) from the not so great effects of the sun. Secondly, choose a dress that shows a little skin. After all HELLO, you are on vacation! 🙂 Last but not least, don’t forget your cute straw tote, with a small scarf added for extra flair. Aside from being cute, the tote is functional as you travel picking up small souvenirs that you’ll bring back to me as a thank you. Just kidding, but seriously totes are so handy when traveling. Well, it was fun while it lasted, but for now I must get back to work and back to reality. A girl can dream, can’t she? If you make it to the French Rivera before I do, I’m sure you’re going to have an amazingly stylish time!
