Style Flashback - Now and Then

I love to watch re-run's of "Girlfriends." This was and remains one of my favorite sitcoms. This show was so relatable. It was the African American version of "Sex and the City." Every girl knew a Joan, Toni, Mya or Lynn. The show visited topics of sex, relationships, fashion, infidelity, insecurities, even drug substance. I was crushed when they ripped my fav show off the air. Now, although I tuned in every week to watch the drama filled episodes. My main purpose was to see the fashion. While, all four women had their unique sense of style. I was totally captivated my Joan's character played by Tracey Ellis Ross. I loved the fact that she was a distinguished and successful lawyer. Yet, she stayed true to herself. And it clearly shows thru her sense of style.

Fashion Now -Tracey Ellis Ross

If anyone exudes effortless style, its Tracee Ellis Ross! Whether she's in all black, or styling it up with bold accessories, this girlfriend is always incredibly fashionable. She must get her from her momma!

Fashion Then - Diana Ross

Diana Ross is not only iconic for her soulful singing, but for her glamorous ensembles. I thought we should pay homage to how fabulous Miss Ross was back in the day. (Did I say, back in the day? I meant to say - She is still fabulous!) The Supreme's were synonymous for their over the top make-up, fashion gowns and wigs. Her style has evolved over the years, and I believe she is still the Queen of glamorous style!

Miss Ross giving you the Eye Lashes back in the day!

She is such a D-I-V-A!

I got carried away with Miss Ross images! But, she is so got damn Fabulous....

Team Gemini

Hey Cutie Pies!

I love 3 day weekends! Spent sometime with family, then with the besties. Attended some cook-outs, did a little shopping and had some QT with me, myself and I!!!!!!!! I could not ask for a better weekend.

 So, I began my weekend at Tatu's with the crew! Now, this was my 1st time at Tatu's. However, everyone had been there at least 2 or 3 times. And, I have to say I was impressed. The ambiance was intimate and the food was spectacular. Oh, and by the way, the decor was very chic! I loved the color scheme.....

My Summer Wish List

So, I was doing some online shopping and I came across a few items that I must have for the Summer. I have been trying to keep my hands out of my own pockets. lol. (If that makes any sense) But, I figured, a gal has to have a few "Must have" items in her closet. Take a look at my Summer Wish List. I'm hoping Santa comes 6 months early. lol. I did not list them all, I have been trying to finish this post for the past week. And, it's not enough time in the day. However, below are just a few items.
