Old Navy Steps Up Their Plus Size Game

Old Navy Steps Up Their Plus Size Game

Ugh, I hate when I’m caught sleeping on a clothing brand I’ve been following for a while! I wasn’t particularly impressed with some of Old Navy’s women’s plus stuff earlier this season. I looked away for a little too long. Just yesterday I was amazed and astounded to see some wearable, fly designs on Old [...]

5 Fave New Body Washes

5 Fave New Body Washes

Recently we had houseguests in town and one of the main topics of discussion became our bathroom. Specifically one corner of the shower stall, which is cluttered with no less than five body washes at the moment. Oh hello, shower cat! “Why do you have so many?” asked my friend John. “Because I am a [...]

Want of the Week: Rachel Stewart Jewelry

Want of the Week: Rachel Stewart Jewelry

I’ve come to realize that my jewelry personality is quite a bit different from my regular personality. If you meet me in person, I can be low key and sometimes even a little quiet (but always warm and friendly, or at least I try to be!). I’m not a loud person, by any means. But [...]

You Deserve: Dior Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum

You Deserve: Dior Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum

Mascara commercials irk me to no end. Every time I see an ad on TV for a mascara promising to volumize my lashes by unbelievable amounts, it makes me want to flip channels. Because #1 – the model or celebrity in the ad is most likely wearing fake lashes, and #2 – if it’s a [...]

Behold, Bon Bon Vie!

Behold, Bon Bon Vie!

I love seeing the passage of time, and what effects it has on our lives. Flashback to 2007. At the time I lived in Miami and needed a logo for my relatively-new-but-gaining-popularity blog. And Shari Neal was an up and coming graphic designer in Chicago. Shari submitted the winning entry to the Afrobella logo contest, [...]

Happy Birthday, Afrobella!

Happy Birthday, Afrobella!

Well…belated birthday. The actual first post went up on August 14, 2006. It’s so strange and wonderful to read it again. I can still remember how I felt as I wrote it – like a flood of words was just flowing out of my fingertips. I had SO much to say! That post reads like [...]
