Tales From The Roots: Big Chop Anniversary


     Last Year on the last week of January I stood in the bathroom mirror with scissors in my hands. At that point I had grown my natural roots out for 8 months and I felt in that moment that I had had enough! I had supporters and those who were against it but in that moment I just went with my heart. I cut.

Outfit of The Week: The Chic Tee

      Check out my Outfit of the week. This little number is really comfortable and easy to put together. All you will need to recreate this look is a pair of skinny jeans, a graphic tee and heels. Every one has these pieces in their closet and there really is no wrong way to go about putting something like this together.

Tales From the Roots: Twist Out Take Down

     I've had a lot of request about my hair regiment so I decided to make a video showing you exactly how I take my twists down and style my Fro. This hair was about 3-4 days dirty. I usually get my best results during this time. My hair is at its most defined state when I twist on wet, freshly washed hair, however it is also at it's most shrunken state at this time. Even if I try to pick my roots or if I bobby pin the twists to stretch them over night my hair won't stretch on the first day, it always takes a day or two to achieve that big beautiful fro.

Ways to Wear It: Leather & Knits Part 3

Leather Leggings 


     This is the third and final installment in my Leather & Knit series! This time around we are talking about leather leggings or leather pants. Depending on your budget you may not be able to afford real leather pants which usually cost $700 and up. I know my budget doesn't allow splurges like that so if you are like me but you still want to get this look all you will need to do is go grab a pair of faux leather pants or leggings. for your favorite retailer. I've seen them at department stores like JC Penney and fast fashion chains like H&M and Forever 21.
