Professional Party Girl


Shawane Fletcher, a 24 year-old Southeastern University Nursing student, decided to jazz up her birthday outfit with the classic high-waist skirt and button down shirt. The red accessories were key and a perfect addition to the outfit!

Shawane did a great jobusing what she had to accomplish the look she wanted. More and more, I find young ladies willing to step outside their comfort zones and pair some colored shoes and accessories with their outfit. Shawane kept it simple and did not overdue it with too much color.

I believe this outfit minus a few inches on the heels would definitely be an appropiate suit for the office. One should also play with patterns. The stripes on the skirt are great and adds character to outfit!

Shawane is drfinitely mixing things up! go gurl!

Spring into the new spring lines....

So, the new items are off the run-way and in the stores, but will we ever be able to walk the streets in them and wear them to work?

I've seen the linens, the whites and all those beautiful colors that make us realize that it's spring, but with this weather we are going to go straight to summer. Last night, I went to a show up in Harlem at the Apollo and folks were stylng in their newest spring items. The ladies were wearing the open toe shoes, guys wore track jackets and sport coats and I saw a lot of new items that are now in the stores. We can thank the nice weather for that.

I am really excited to see what the rest of spring has in-store for this season. The fashion shows are over and the stimulus plan has been approved. Get out there and shop til you drop!
