Creme X Creme

Every time I run into one of my readers the first thing they say is "wow , you are so short!" I am actually really short , only about 5'4 but my pictures make me look tall. The trick is , I take pictures from an angle that makes me look tall , secondly I am almost always in heels and lastly I wear clothes that lengthens my body and these creme Ralph Lauren high-waisted trousers does just that.

Anybody that knows anything about fashion know that high-waisted trousers/skirts/shorts were sent as a gift to women from above. High-waisted trousers especially flatters the female figure as it clinches  the waist widens by the hip , contours nicely around the bottom and lengthens the legs. High-waisted trousers is really the stamp of vintage fashion and if you are a vintage lover , you will love the  high-waisted looks available here:http://whitefur.bigcartel.com/

Black X Creme

Hello loves , sorry I've been so M.I.A but I was abroad. I spent my holiday with my brother and his little family in Atlanta and we were out and about everyday. I got home a few days ago and I haven't unpack or even taken my camera out of my suitcase as yet so for now these old pictures I took back in March will have to suffice. That evening we went out for dinner at the Stone Mountain Inn and I went well suited up , can you tell I have a thing for gloves and shades? http://whitefur.bigcartel.com/product/gold

July's Inspiration

Pastel is still on the radar for 2013 but things would get a lot more fascinating if a little texture is added with lace. Sultry and sensuous lacy patterns in playful pastel hues creates a sexy , dainty and feminine appeal and gives an irrefutable grace to your look. Experiment with neutrals such as caramel or nude lace or pair light hues of yellow, pink, green, blue and orange with shoes in the same color family or even metallic. To add even more interest go for thought provoking  translucent/sheer lace. While choosing the degree of sheerness, pay much attention to the shape of your body and also the place you are attending. Its more appropriate to wear a thick more covered lace pattern in the day time and at night you can almost go as sheer as you want. Keep the mood going with loose curls in your hair and soft make-up for an overall easy- going and relaxed look.

A few months ago I was wearing a lot of black , heavy boots , leather and spikes , you would think I was going to war or something. Truth be told I was anxious and on edge and I guess the way I was feeling reflected in the way I dressed. I launched http://whitefur.bigcartel.com/  just about two weeks ago and the response and support has been pretty amazing for something that is still  in its newborn stage , I cannot thank you enough. Now I can chill the hell out! I'm a lot happier these days and I find myself incorporating a lot of  soft , light  and delicate textures such as lace in pretty pastels , neutrals and white in my outfits. To be honest I'm not really a girly girl but I was starting to miss looking and feeling feminine.

July's Favorite

A few minutes before her designs were to hit the runway at the 2013 Caribbean Fashion Week show , Ashley Martin and I was in the FX Trader boothe taking pictures for their fan page. I remember Ashley saying that her line was going on last and "she come fi dun the place" , truth be told she really did. Her line called "Attitude" was jaw dropping from start to finish. Her designs were a mixture of sophistication , class , glamour and elegance with delicate lace patterns, feathers and fur , sequins and Swarovski crystals for a dramatic finish. I fell in love with everything , it was more than just fashion , it was Art and that night she got a standing ovation from me. These are just a few pictures from the show but the entire line was just amazing ; it was fun , daring , feminine and undeniably pristine and beautifully executed.

O'Neil Perrin Photography

My friend O' Neil is a budding photographer and he's been getting a lot of practice on me.A couple months ago he asked me to help him out by doing a shoot to update his portfolio and I finally got a chance to do it last weekend. These pictures are barely edited (and they look pretty good) and were actually his rejects (which I happen to like) but when he does the editing on his favorites you will be able to see them here https://www.facebook.com/pages/ONeil-Perrin-Photography/162390547142837

Lace me up.
