Afrobella + Neiman Marcus Last Call Lookbook

My eternal shopping dilemma — I love quality, but I’m not willing and/or able to pay full retail prices. I am all about the look and the labels for less. I love rummaging through a good outlet store. Even moreso, I love looking online for bargains so I know exactly how steep of a discount…

Hello, Winter Boots — 7 Kinds I Need in Chicago

I’ve been in deep denial. I’ve been lying to myself. Some days, Chicago plays along — giving me balmy afternoons in the 50’s. But on a day like this Monday, I can’t deny it any more. Winter is coming. It’s cold November raining sideways right now as I write this. Soon that rain will be…

WeBuyBlack.com – A New Portal to Our Global Community

  In my line of work I interact with entrepreneurs and indie brand creators from around the world, the majority of them are people of color (obviously, this is Afrobella.com!).

Perfect Plus Size Little Black Dresses We Need ASAP

When it comes to wardrobe musts and fashion do’s, I tend to steer on the side of “do you!” – meaning that the old rules don’t apply anymore. We’re in a time when fashion is truly about self expression and whatever fits and flatters you, is the perfect thing to wear. Having said all of…
