Jazz is more than a musical genre. It’s a way of life. Duke Ellington was not only a jazz pioneer but he also had a huge impact on street style. “The Duke” was known for dressing impeccably. His clean cut image encouraged men, especially African American men, to follow suit (pun intended). Enjoy these photos […]
There were bursts of sunshine during the tornado watch in the DC area. I pulled out these fun Tory Burch sunnies. The clear frames with a pop of neon orange make a statement without going overboard. I picked up these shades for a really good price at Nordstrom Rack.
On Saturday, I had the honor of hosting the 22nd Annual Capitol Heights Day. It was a day of community fellowship filled with live performances, health screenings, food, and children’s activities. Mayor Kito James and his staff did an excellent job making the day a great one for Capitol Heights. All of the performing acts […]

But for everyday use, false lashes should look more natural. Opt for individual lashes and have them installed by a certified lash specialist. Thin, natural […]
The banana cake at Masa 14 is delightfully sinful. The cake is served warm with dulce leche ice cream, tequila banana foster sauce, and vanilla pudding. This is truly one of the best desserts I’ve tasted and it only costs $6.00.
I have one of the most amazing customers a stylist could ask for. Alison Smith or “The Legislative Diva”, as I affectionately call her, trusts my professional opinion and is always game to try something new. Most importantly, she is comfortable in her own skin. She is gorgeous and has a radiant smile. I worked […]
