Happy Friday, friends! I’m delighted to share a preview of the “Emma” pleated maxi dress from my upcoming capsule collection with Sail to Sable. For those who know, Emma is one of the most important names in my life.
I am beyond excited to share one of six styles from the Sail to Sable x Style Charade capsule collection – the Charlotte dress! How did I come up with the names? Every piece in the collection is named after (or for) a woman who’s inspired me in some way. A few have very unique stories or just a special meaning. This one falls in the latter category.
“Charlotte” happens to be the baby name I’ve had in mind if we ever had a daughter. Have you seen “That One With the Birth” episode of Friends? To summarize, Monica shares her she’s already picked the names of her future children (which is seriously common among so many of friends). Well, “Charlotte” is my “Emma.”
Since the launch of Style Charade, public art and murals have been at the core of my content. From Chicago to New York, Los Angeles and Miami, I’ve loved curating Wall Guides to help readers locate the colorful scenes and celebrate the artists. In many ways, street art is a significant part of my storytelling and brand. One of the reasons why I’ve always loved murals and public art is because they often share a message, support a cause, and/or make a neighborhood more beautiful.
Over the past week, I’ve been participating in the Amplified Voices movement. For those who might be unfamiliar, the concept asked brands, influencers, and individuals to re-evaluate their current practices and educate themselves on topics of racism.
It is a heavy time for our country, and I hope you’ve been able to take a step back to reflect, listen, and learn. I know I am, and I’m committed to continuing the journey. I’m thrilled to share with you 45 black influencers to follow both on Instagram and via their blogs and websites.
Since social distancing, we’ve been investing a lot more in new home and kitchen products. In this week’s Friday Charades, I share some fantastic investment pieces for the home that don’t cost a fortune.
It’s been so exciting to finally share, as we’ve been working on it for months! I can’t wait to show you the full Sail to Sable x Style Charade collection in the coming weeks.
I’m ecstatic to announce my first ever dress collection in partnership with Sail to Sable! The line will be exclusively sold on SailtoSable.com, and a portion of the proceeds from the sales of the collection will benefit Feeding America, the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization.
Happy Memorial Day weekend! Whew, what a different year to be celebrating the long holiday weekend, huh? I truly hope you have some fun activities slated to keep yourself entertained (and safe) at home.
