Ok, so we talked about facials, manicures and pedicures....let's finish it off your Grooming List with clean , white teeth. You wouldn't believe how many men go daily through life blissfully ignorant of their corn on the cob teeth. In the era of Zoom whitening and a plethora of whitening strips, I have a hard time believing that this is still happening. I even had my teeth whitened last winter----I just wanted a fresher smile---and I can attest to the power of a white smile. Now, if you disagree … [Read more...]

Even though I love to dress it all up, I am a klutz when it comes to make up. I remember experimenting in high school with the full foundation, eye shadow, blush, and lipstick. None of my friends had the courage to tell me that I look like a crumpin' clown, but my Spanish teacher said one teeny little sentence that awoke me from my makeup hell:"Hmmm, you look very interesting today..."With that simple statement, he, unknowingly, changed my make up mantra forever...I am now a simple gloss and … [Read more...]

Now, I really don't believe in following ALL of the trends, especially when it comes to having an IT bag that all of the celebs are flaunting. For example, when I see a hot retail item, I always ask the sales rep, "How well has this sold?" If the sales rep tells me that they run out of the item all of the time, I promptly put it back on the shelf--if everyone else has it, I don't want it. When I start to see my outfits on TV and out and about, I retire the look. I want to be known as having … [Read more...]

Now, fellas, I know know that the man-pampering revolution has yet to come into fruition, but I dare you---no, I double dare you--to be the the visionaries of this movement. I personally strongly believe in a man having great skin, nails, hair, and teeth. Although my primary concern is how you dress it all up, if the original package is a mess, there isn't much I can do about that....All that being said, if you read the last Man Day post, you should have had your pedicure and manicure by now. … [Read more...]

Hi there fabulites! I know that I promised a recap of my personal interview with Trina today, but last night my laptop was knocked off of my dining room table by my seven year old who was simultaneously trying to look at the TV and hang up a coat in the coat closet. While I commended him for hanging up his coat without me having to ask, I was silently praying inside that the computer wasn't damaged...but, when I picked it up off of the floor, the screen was a kaleidoscope of images...andit … [Read more...]

I recently had an opportunity to speak to the "Diamond Princess" AKA hip-hop recording artist Trina. I can sincerely tell you that she was a delight to speak with and was very down-to-earth. Although she may boast of riches, diamonds, houses, cars, clothes, etc., she is very humble and open to talk about most subjects. Since I have declared myself a fashionista, of course we only talked about fashion and style!!Before I post the interview, lets just take a look at Trina's Style File, shall … [Read more...]
