Dishonoring "White"

Ok Miley..... Ummmmm. Ok. Rule of thumb, when you are wearing something revealing you need to offset the big reveal with covering up the opposite end. That helps it look tasteful. The "do" Miley has going on is wearing white. Another observation, is the jacket looked a little ill fitted. It should have been more oversized and boyish or tailored to look more feminne. Had she covered up a little more and stayed tasteful this look would have been a stunner!

Transition to Fall.......

It is fall and, transitioning into fall wardrobe is a very tricky thing, especially in California. This look is "California fall". Maya is wearing an asymmetrical Indonesian inspired blouse, with a classic black "mini". The top of the look makes a great pallet for her red heels. This look is great with "fish nets" for a night out on the crisp town. The paisley decoration on the top is what really sets this look apart from other "mini" and black top looks.

Long, Lean and Fierce!!!!

Can you say “Height Goddess”??!!!! I am standing here with business owner Lameeka Weeks. Not only is she chic, beautiful and tall, but smart as a whip as well! Lameeka took home the 2nd place prize in the elevator pitch contest at the convention. If you are tall, mean and a fashion machine, “Height Goddess” is worth stopping and taking notice. Her clothing is tailored made to fit “us”. Can’t you tell??!!!

Meeting Shane&Shawn the shoe designers

I was truly honored to meet these two gentlemen. This is Shawn and Shane Ward, the founders of SHANE&SHAWN shoes. These guys know their way around a woman’s foot. Shawn and Shane have a knack for staying ahead of design in fashion as far as shoes are concerned.
I am a true shoe buff! (what woman isn’t) but I am a lady that leans more towards instant classics, and if you are looking for a boot that will stand the test of trends and bring a non-chalant, edgy elegance to a skirt or pair of jeans, I would recommend SHANE&SHAWN’s “Anne Brown” boot. This looks like a comfortable boot. It is stylish; it has clean lines and just the right amount of design to cross-over from the Saturday shopping outfit with jeans, to the business mixer with an army green shirt dress and chocolate blazer.

More looks from the Black Enterprise Entreprenuers Conference

There were some great expression of style at this convention. (The upper left) Angela M. Childs the virtual assistant extraordinaire, did an extraordinary job setting herself apart from the rest. Her look and use of color is reminiscent of designs by Missoni. Her thick red belt is defininitely a tool used in Missoni's spring 2010 collection.

Speaking of setting yourself apart (lower left) Alfred A. Edmond Jr. has this art of networking down. He has been a part of the Black Enterprise family for a number of years. He has done this all the while sporting his signature bow tie. Alfred is wearing a black suit with yellow tie and handkerchief. Many commented on how his look sent a postive radiance in every room he entered.

I'm going to close this portion out with some more positive energy. Mary Major is just beaming in her white power suit. I am not sure who her suit is by but I do remember that the designer Ralph Lauren was the designing face of the "Power Suit" in the early 80's.

The look Mary is expressing is springy ,professional and dynamic. Mary designs her own jewelry line to complete her looks. Mary's N-ER-G keeps her in perfect fashion step always.

Fashionably San Diego Fashion Show!

Hello Fashionista's. It's been a minute but I'm back with some fashion tid bits for you. I attended the Fashionably San Diego fashion show at Bloomingdales. I saw some great inspiration there! My choice pic to share with you is this fabulous, "running with the elite" summer look. My goodness this is a very regal yet fun look. Either the model really sold this outfit or the stylist Vanessa did an excellent job putting this look together.

I really like this military inspired summer look. The white summer blazer really adds a twist to the gray blouse and like colored heels. This is a desirable look for summer and is likely to inspire the wardrobe of a lot of San Diegans this year!
