Well, it’s Martin Luther King Jr. day. January has been flying by and here we are. Do you still have a dream? I know I do. I was lucky to be raised in Washington, D.C. at an international elementary school that taught me at an early age to appreciate different races, cultures and religions. I learned Spanish and English at the same time and I truly appreciate my family for sending me to such a school.
I know a lot of people aren’t lucky enough to say the same. They learn from an early age to discriminate against others for the color of their skin, religion, where they live or who their grandparents were. It’s unfortunate but I do believe that even if you were raised to be some kind of bigot, you can change. You don’t have to be like your parents on grandparents.
In this age where the President is focused on forcing illegal immigrants out of the country, creating chaos and even deaths, let’s all remember that we all bleed the same color. And, there is no skin color differential in heaven or hell. So, today we honor you Dr. King. What are you doing to make this world a better place?

Happy New Year! How are you? Have y’all been on vacation? I’ve been taking a couple of days off, we all must rest and recharge from time to time. I saw this gorgeous video of what I believe is the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City. It’s so beautiful!
Well, they say life is short. How is your New Year going? Do you have any resolutions?

Hey, so I stumbled upon the most beautiful mini dress perfect for the winter from Valentino Garavani. It has a feather hem and it looks like the beading and details are hand-embroidered. There’s a beautiful draped bow on the back that accentuates your femininity. Throw on a warm, cozy fur coat or this embroidered shawl. Now, the dress is quite an investment. But, it will most likely last you for years to come and always make a fashion statement. What do you think?

Good morning! How are you doing? I caught wind of the news that Olivier Rousteing would be stepping down as Creative Director of Balmain and instantly felt a loss. His looks have been some of my favorite looks on the runways for the last few decades. He pushed the limits, reimagined silhouettes, gave garments structure and definition that hadn’t been seen before. I’m sure that his work will be influencing our culture and imagination for years to come. Farewell Olivier. And, well, we can’t wait to see what you do next.
Below are some of my favorite Balmain looks of recent years. What are yours?

How are yall doing? So I just love bubble tea. Came across it for the first time while living in Manhattan, New York. Anyway, I went by one of my favorite bubble tea spots Art of Boba today in my cute pink Area crop top. I paired it with some denim shorts and my vintage Christian Louboutin pink booties. I’ve been so busy but wanted to share my outfit of the day. The crop top is actually 50% off in the fashion shop and it’s truly a quality statement piece. Love the razzle dazzle of the diamond necklace.
There are some other cute pieces in the fashion shop, make sure to check it out. And, if you are ever in South Florida, stop by Art of Boba for the green waffle and a black milk bubble tea. Talk with y’all later!
