Spring Phorward

Hey Fashionistas and Fashionistos,

I'm definitely ready for the warm weather. It seems like it has been cold for so long. I've been adding on to my spring/summer wardrobe for that past few months. I know many of you all may have been doing the same. I created a spring inspired look to give you all an idea for an ensemble. I chose the mint skirt as my pop of color, and used the rest as my neutrals.

What do you think of the look? Stay tuned for more inspired looks!

Look of the Week

Hey Fashionistas and Fashionistos,

Kim Kardashian's hair has been trending the past couple of days. She debuted her platinum blonde hair while in Paris. She looks like a totally different person. At first glance, I didn't like it. I'm so used to her being a brunette, but it has grown on me. Her outfit is fabulous as well. It definitely fits her hair. What do you all think of Kim Kardashian's new look?

Oscars Red Carpet: Fab or Hmm?

Hey Fashionistas and Fashionistos,

Last Sunday was the Oscars, and I definitely had to check out my favorite part.......The Red Carpet! There were some hits and misses this year. Many of the looks were gorgeous, but some of them were not my cup of tea. Here are few of the "Fab or Hmm" red carpet looks.

Now the first two collages are FAB, but the last two are Hmm. However, they are interesting. What do you all think?

XOXO,

Phashion Fun Fact: Fashion Pioneer

Hey Fashionistas and Fashionistos,

In the late 90s, Tyra Banks paved the way for many African-American women and women in general. At age 23, Tyra Banks was the first African-American supermodel to grace the magazine cover of Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue and the Victoria's Secret catalogue. Also, she was the first woman to grace the cover of GQ magazine. These were some great accomplishments at a young age.

Here are the three covers she graced.

Transformation Tuesday

Hey Fashionistas and Fashionistos, My first time seeing Teyana Taylor was when I watched My Super Sweet Sixteen years ago. I thought she was different. If you've watched her throughout the years you know her style has changed a  bit. When you first saw her, she was more tomboy-ish. As time went on you start seeing more of her sex appeal. I think her style evolution is something to follow. Here are a few pictures of her from then to now.

I think her style has an edge to it, and she still has some androgynous moments. I like her style. What do you all think of her style?

XOXO,

Phyllis♥
