NYFW Look of the Day – Last Day in Lace
I was due to leave New York on Monday afternoon, but boy oh boy I didn’t account for the dramatics of the day. First things first – you know that Afrobella is typically a positive blog. I try not to trash something unless I’ve had an absolutely abhorrent experience. And this is why, when I [...]
Event Recap: Cocktails and Couture
I missed the first hour of Cocktails and Couture because I was my typically slow self and catching a cab in NYC is a hellish experience for me. But I wasted no time in hugging, meeting, greeting, and celebrating my beauty and fashion blogger besties as soon as I got there! Here I am with [...]
Diesel Black Gold – The Only Runway Show For Me
This year for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, I found myself dealing with transportation and accomodation issues and other only-in-NYC drama, which led me to miss many Lincoln Center experiences. But as good fortune would have it, there was one show in the cards that I was able to make without a problem. And it was a [...]

NYFW Day 3 – Plus Size at Fashion Week?
After my exciting evening at the tents and tour of the city via pedicab, I was exhausted. But I had to get my butt in gear for the next day. I had a trek out to Brooklyn in store! I ended Day 2 with a delicious Indian dinner in the Village with my best friend [...]
Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Day #2
Hey bellas! Computer issues and being on the go kept me away from blogging this weekend. But now I’m back (and still in NYC for the moment) to recap my last few days of Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week. On to day 2! I had heard horror stories about picking up credentials at the Bryant [...]
Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, Here I Come!
I took a little blogcation and wow! What a difference a week made! Before last week, I was feeling stressed out and stagnant. Today I’m still stressed out… but feeling great! Why? Because my application to cover events at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week New York was APPROVED, and I’m totally going to the tents for the [...]
