A few weeks ago, I downloaded the new photo editing app iPhone app, Enlight. I can’t stop playing with this app. Once you get the hang of the crazy amount of options, the sky is the limit when it comes to your creativity. Admittedly, I am not one who does or even knows how to […]

Last week, I attended a Louis Vuitton V Collection launch party this week and wore an awesome silk scarf made by my friend Ellen M. She has some amazing & versatile designs. The scarf that I’m rocking as a cravat actually has so many colors that I can wear it with a variety of shirt/blazers […]

The visually stunning video for “River” by Ibeyi, a twin sister duo is enough to send me through changes but the haunting music & message really rock my world. If you’re feeling “River” then you have to check out “Mama Says,” which has an equally stimulating video & lyrical presentation. Get you some & vibe […]

I am not a big fan of going out during the week, but when my girl Mayaeni organized a show, there was no way that I could not be there. She gave the standing room audience everything they needed and then some! And as an extra rock songstress bonus, she had Steffanie Christi’an on stage […]

“Imitation of Life” (1959) is one of my all time favorite movies! If you’ve seen the move then you know how emotional the ending is & I love it. My favorite scene is actually the scene where Annie is on her deathbed where she says to Ms. Laura “My pearl necklace… I want you to […]

A good pair of church shoes is a necessity in my life. I wouldn’t consider myself obsessed with shoes but I spend a fair amount of time searching for styles and looking at trends. My research is aided by having Pinterest to host a collection of some of the hottest kicks that I stumble upon. […]

New York Fashion Week is in full swing & I’m in town to take it all in as I work as a Fashion Liaison… Feels funny being here for Fashion Week and not working like a dog as a photographer. And I’m enjoying it. What is a Fashion Liaison? No one knows but I was […]
