Hey Guys!
I’m super excited to present my girl Demetria aka A Belle in Brooklyn (www.abelleinbrooklyn.com) as Bombshell of the Day:

She says, “Most days, I ask myself ‘What would Diahann Carroll do if she was influenced by Lauryn Hill circa ’00 and Andre 3000?’ Whatever answer I come up with is what I put on that morning.”

” I’m also into pageantry. I like being slightly over the top with ruffles and frills.”

“My personal fashion motto is, ‘high hair, high heels, high boobs.'”


Super cute! If you don’t know about Demetria’s blog, www.abelleinbrooklyn.com, get to clicking! It’s an award winning relationship blog that will actually be turned into a book in June 2011 (so Sex and the City!).

Demetria is also a relationships editor at Essence magazine. Check out a bit of her work here. Don’t forget to follow her on Twitter @abelleinbk or ask her a relationship question at formspring.me/abelleinbk.
