Fashion Friday: Fringed Scarf x Riding Boots

Your mission: put together a weather-appropriate, colorful and seemingly effortless ensemble suitable for a Saturday night stroll with the girls or a Sunday afternoon promenade with the fella. Challenge accepted.  H&M red cardigan, $16 / Uniqlo tapered jeans / Zara suede shoes / Old Navy zip top cross body bag / Forever 21 watch / ALDO yellow gold earrings / Forever 21 knit shawl scarf Lookit! A cute scarf can do wonders to spice up the most basic of outfits. This striped loveliness from Forever 21 certainly brings that subtle bit of flavor to the everyday jeans and cardigan ensemble. The faux leather purses at Old Navy this season have my heart… how pretty is this soft mustard cross body bag?! Zara stays on their boot game. Every. Single. Year. This pair has a surprise faux leather panel in the back-LOVE! And I just had to throw in a fun watch for…

Ask the Pro: My Hair Isn’t Growing… What’s Up With That?!

Our resident natural hair care professional Simeko Watkins-Hartley answers… “My hair is very healthy and I don’t have split ends, but it’s the same length for the last 6 months. What’s up with that?”  OK… so you’ve done everything to retain the length of your hair: protective styles, proper moisturization, protein treatments & regular trims and still, your hair is at the same length it was several months ago. “What’s up with that” you ask?! If you’ve done everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) externally you possibly can to care for your hair and it still seems to be at the same length, then maybe you’ve reached your MTL (Maximum Terminal Length) or in other words… your hair growth limit. Now, let me ask you this: have you ever wondered why your eyebrow hair never grows past a certain length? Probably not, because it’s just eyebrow hair! Well, much like our eyebrow hair,…

3 Tips to Help Cure Dry, Brittle Natural Hair!

This question comes to us from @curiouscoils (how appropriate!) on Instagram. Our resident natural hair care professional Simeko Watkins-Hartley answers… How do I soften my ends? Answer: Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!  Usually, when the ends tend to be harder or rougher than the rest of your hair, it may be due to lack of moisture. The ends are the oldest part of the hair and tend to hang out furthest away from the scalp, so they may dry out faster, leaving a hard, brittle feel. Here are some steps you can take to whip those ends back into shape: 1. When cleansing your hair, use a moisturizing shampoo and luke-warm or cool water to rinse Moisturizing shampoos are usually pH balanced and generally have ingredients that will lubricate the hair, making it soft. Cool water helps to seal the cuticles which aids in making the hair smoother and shinier. 2. Treat your hair to an…

Fashion Friday: Colors of Autumn

While I hate to say goodbye to Summer, I welcome fashion’s earth tones {oh, and bangin’ boots!!} with open arms! Summer may be gone but that doesn’t meant you have to bury those shorts just yet. After searching through a few of my favorite stores on the interwebs, I found this slick pair of cuffed shorts from UNIQLO. Check out those clean lines! Just slip on a cute pair of tights like these and you’re ready to brave the chill. H&M never disappoints! This easy-going, flowy viscose top in teal {my favorite color of late} serves as the perfect complement to the camel-hued shorts. Both blend right in with these amazing burgundy knee-high boots, also from H&M! And how ’bout this Danielle Nicole purse?? O_O HOLLA! For accessories, I went bold with a gold fringed bib necklace and then scaled things down with simple antique-y earrings from ALDO. The blush-toned scarf…
