Jennifer Hudson




Jennifer Hudson wore this British navy stretch taffeta cocktail dress back in 2008 to the premier of 'Secret Life of the Bees'



It is by designer Tadashi Shoji. His dresses are all over the red carpet nowadays; he's designed for other Plush Divas such as: Queen Latifah, Monique, Gabourey Sidibe, Amber Riley and many others. I'm loving the design of this dress. The vertical side panels really accentuate and camouflage the curves.



Interested? This dress costs $340 and is available at SAKS

Shine with Sequins!




Lately sequins are everywhere: jackets, hair bands, skirts, leggings, sweaters, shirts and shoes – My little Yorkshire also has a little sequin dress!




These are all available at: Simply Be!


A couple of months back I was quite unmoved when it came to anything shiny. I thought anything too loud made me look bigger, so I ran away from metallics and glitter all together….. BUT lately I’ve been paying very close attention. After browsing numerous blogs and watching several red carpet events, I saw firsthand how celebs would work these sequined skirts, dresses and tops. And that’s all it took for me to fall in style-love!

My most favorite look is the sequined skirt with and an oversized blazer. I love the idea of a sequin skirt – sexy, fun and relaxed.


If you love these sparkling looks, check the sequin pieces below.

Fashion Florals: Bigger, Brighter and Bolder



Check out Miss Diana Ross and her sister Rhonda Ross at the opening of the new Target store in East Harlem. Don’t they look cute in their floral dresses?

Fashion designers have embraced floral fabrics in their fashion designs and the prints are very present on the runways….so that means flower power is BACK! Floral prints are gorgeous, feminine, fashionable, and natural. These prints help enhance femininity making them perfect for the summer. When it comes to floral prints there are absolutely no rules; go bold or subtle depending on personal preference and style. Easily dressed down with flats or dressed up with wedges and a cardigan for night. For an easy-going and effortless summertime look the print itself is statement enough, so keep accessories to a minimum. Add a bangle or stud earrings….don’t overdo it, let the prints do the talking. Take a look at some floral prints below!

Quote of the day

"A man will never love you or treat you as well as a store. If a man doesn't fit, you can't exchange him seven days later for a gorgeous cashmere sweater. And a store always smells good. A store can awaken a lust for things you never even knew you needed. And when your fingers first grasp those shiny, new bags... oh yes... oh yes."

- Rebecca Bloomwood 'Confessions of a Shopaholic'

Quote of the day

"Buying something on sale is a very special feeling. In fact, the less I pay for something, the more it is worth to me. I have a dress that I paid so little for that I am afraid to wear it. I could spill something on it, and then how would I replace it for that amount of money?"
