Hair Repair: Redken All Soft Hair Products

Haute Trend: Fringed Boots

It’s a throwback to the 70’s made fresh and new. Fringe has returned and is found on everything from scarves, to bags, to stiletto heels. But the fringed boot is the staple for Fall. Fringed moccasin boots are given a second-life with high legs and stud detail while dress boots get a dash of flair with layers of fringe. This fancy footwear works best with a tunic and leggings, or can be paired with a dress (a la Chanel Iman and Rachel Bilson) for a sharp contrast. Shop the trend below: Joie – Deja Vu (Cognac Antic Brush Off), $293.76 Gucci Devendra High Heel Booties, $1250 Via Spiga...  Read More..

Beauty Review: RoC Daily Microdermabrasion Cleansing Disks

There are many ways you can pamper your skin without breaking the bank with frequent spa visits. Most recently, I tried RoC Daily Microdermabrasion Cleansing Disks and they were a really great treat for my skin. They are dual-sided cloth disks that even have a finger pocket so you can better control the disk. Gentle enough for daily use, the disks give you noticeable results instantly. After just one use, you’ll notice smoother, more refreshed skin. With continued use, fine lines and wrinkles are visibly reduced, as well as an improvement in skin tone. After just four weeks, wrinkles and crows...  Read More..

Beauty Review and Giveaway: CoverGirl Natural Hue Mineral Bronzer and Pressed Powder

When it comes to my face, I like to keep it simple. I usually prefer just a light moisturizer, a shimmery lip gloss and occasionally, a bronzer. I love looking au naturel, so I’ve never been too fond of foundation and powders that make me look too pasty or fake. Until now. CoverGirl launched its Queen Collection about a year ago, specifically created for women of color, by Queen Latifah and makeup artist Roxanna Floyd. And they recently unveiled the CoverGirl Natural Hue Mineral Makeup collection. After I got ColorMatched, I tried the pressed powder and bronzer which are both enriched with...  Read More..

It’s time for change! Last night, agent-of-change, Barack Obama made history and was elected the first African American president of the United States.

This has to be the most fashionable family in the White House since John F. Kennedy and Jackie Onassis! Michelle Obama, in particular, is now every...  Read More..
