Hola and happy hump day! Did you guys watch Reed Between the Lines last night? If you missed it the focus of the episode was Carla (played by Tracee Ellis Ross) teaching her daughter the importance of being herself. In this case the situation was her daughter straightening her natural curls/changing her appearance to impress a boy.
They touched on the problems that come with using chemically relaxers—damage, no curls and heat! Carla expressed her dislike of permanently straightening her hair and especially since it was being done for acceptance. I was a bit shocked but happy to see that this was being addressed on a tv show. I know the writers are responsible for the storyline but I also believe that TRE had a hand in that as well. Either way I think that it is great to show young girls that it is ok to be who you are and not reform for anyone/anything. What are your thoughts on this?
I must admit I was a bit apprehensive when I heard the show was premiering but it is growing on me little by little. My curiosity of TRE’s wardrobe and gorgeous hair is enough to make me continue to tune in. Will you?
Hola peeps! I hope you are having a great weekend. Last night was the 2011 Black Girls Rock event here in NYC and it appears to have been a fab time had by all! If you aren’t familiar with the organization then you should know that DJ Beverly Bond is the founder of BGR; which mentors young black girls and works towards fading the negative images of Black women in the media.
My plan is to definitely be in attendance next year. However for now I am sharing some of my fave images from the extraordinary night courtesy of www.essence.com. Some of my fashion and hair muses were in the house—Tracee Ellis Ross, Jill Scott, and Mary J. Blige to name a few. The show airs on BET Nov 6th. Enjoy!

Hola! Ok, I am taking it back to Sunday as I have ONE exception to the fashions at the 2011 BET Awards. I don’t know how I could forget my style and natural hair icon—Tracee Ellis Ross. If you frequent my blog then you know I talk about her just as much as I do Rebecca Minkoff . Check the pic, doesn’t she look fab!
Hola! I hope that your day is going great! I so want the look of my fave natural chica–Tracee Ellis Ross. She has been featured on SNC as Monday’s Muse but I cannot get enough of her hair or style. She is always flawless and chic. I really need to get my french braiding skills up to par so that I can style my hair like this and her look, well that is always on point. Ms. Ellis Ross continues to stay fresh and original. Don’t you agree?
