Red Racer

It's been a while since I've been out and about in Charlotte and when I heard the talented R. Kelly was coming to make an appearance I knew I had to go. Dolled up, dresses tight, and hair flowing-Mia and I hit the streets and had a great time in the club. My long sleeve shinny red bodycon dress has been collecting dust in my closet ever since I scored it from a haul seen here.  Divas, keep in mind this dress is a large and not designed as a plussize dress but because it is made with 18% spandex it worked for me.  The Lita Spike bootie spiced up my Plain Jane dress.  A flawless face was made with Naked 2 color Pistol-a silver hue eyeshadow and a nude lip sealed my style deal.

One Scarf Six Girls

If you follow me on Instagram then you should already be familiar with "One Scarf Six Girls"-a modern day "The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants" featuring a fabulous leopard scarf.  I am the fourth diva to rock the Zulu scarf by Flaws of Couture which is hands down a luxury item every diva should have!  Since the Zulu scarf is plush and soft I decided to wear the scarf as a fur stole.  A sophisticated flair with color and texture was my goal and I achieved that with basic elements.  I wore a jazzed up white collar oxford shirt, a knee length black pencil skirt but with sheer detail, and a spike belt which gave my look a modern edge.  Black and white was the foundation color of my look.  I spruced up my color foundation with bright orange-red lips and teal suede pumps.  One Scarf Six Girls was a lot of fun to be apart of and more can be seen here to check out the other divas rocking the Zulu scarf.

Changing Seasons: Featuring FOC

Living in the south definitely has its perks when it comes to weather.  December has been filled with 66-70 degree weather with a slight chill all month long.  I  finally had a chance to wear my FOC scarf by Flaws of Couture.  Since the weather is in between seasons I styled my "Spice" scarf  with a thick menswear blazer and shorts with tights.  I love the rich color the scarf pops as well as the texture of the fabric.  "Spice" retails for $35 from Flaws of Couture, and is handmade with love by the bloggers Sashagai Renee and Garcia Renee.  They are the master minds behind this luxury line of cozy scarfs which brings compliments whenever its worn!  Check out how I styled my scarf below.

Thankful For Print

Thanksgiving is a time of happiness and most importantly family and friends.  This holiday I was not able to spend it with my family being that we ae spread out over different states and continents.  I did however spend it with my friends and had a great time.  The outfit of the day was a bit of glamour and casual.  I wore my midi ASOS Body-Conscious Dress in Abstract Print in a hot pink color, an infinite scarf with a jean jacket and GoJane combo wedge sneakers.  The glamour came in with a highlight and contour face that was set with Ben Nye Banana Luxury powered.  My day was spent with plates of food and bowls of sweets and the icing on the cake was my outfit!
