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.
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.
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.
Do you have dishes that transport you back to your childhood? Since I was little, my favorite family recipe has been ginger garlic salmon. For me, this masterpiece is it!
Happy Friday, friends! It’s been a super busy week at work, so I’m looking forward to relaxing this weekend. There are a ton of new shows to stream (Outer Banks, Becoming, Dead to Me, 23 Hours to Kill, to name a few). Looks like I’ll need to update my guide to all the best streaming series! Moreover, we’re still chipping away at our home design and on the hunt for pieces to add to our living room, dining room, and primary bedroom.
lair Eadie of Atlantic-Pacific has done such a phenomenal job with her collaboration with Halogen. While I’m sad to hear that fall 2020 will be the last line with the brand, I’m confident that she will continue to do wonderful things ahead. After reviewing her most recent collection, I immediately gravitated towards these colorful striped pieces.
