This Fashion Week has been super busy, from attending shows and dinners to twirling on TV and Radio (I was on the Tom Joyner Show this morning? Did you hear me!?!).
I’ve been doing Fashion Week for years and wanted to give you guys something different this season by way of exclusive video content. It’s a lot more time consuming that normal (and we have to wait to see the results), but it’s been awesome breaking out of my comfort zone and doing something different! That said, I’m kinda backed up on the daily Style Diaries, so I’ll give you a glimpse into what I’ve been doing the past few days.
I covered Day 1 (where I met Kimora Lee Simmons and Rihanna, hello!).
I’m excited to announce that I’m a Toyota Ambassador again! As you may know, Lexus is a division of Toyota Motor Sales, USA. So, for the next few days, I am driving a Lexus NX 300 Hybrid to get around. What do you think of the car?
The next day, Sheen Magazine threw me a Fashion Week brunch, and honored yours truly and Bobby Roaché with Fashion Innovator Awards!
Yandy Smith and Quad Webb Lunceford popped by.
I really wanted to be comfortable, so slipped on my most elasticated heels by MSGM, and a Suno dress.
I headed over the LaQuan Smith presentation afterwards, and interviewed LaQuan for Fashion Bomb TV.
I chatted it up with Christina Milian as well, who rocked a form fitting AQ/AQ dress and Aquazzura heels.
And yesterday, I stopped by Essence Live to sit on their ‘Slayed or Shade’ Panel, and talked Fashion Week Chic with host Dana Blair, hairstylist Ursula Stephen, and Empire’s Ta’Rhonda Jones:
I rocked a Topshop sequined top, Topshop pants, and a Theory blazer.
Later that night, Isoul Harris of Uptown Magazine invited me, Ty Hunter, Alicia L Quarles, Legendary Damon, V Bozeman, and more to the Zac Posen show, as part of his partnership with American Express Platinum.
So yes, I’ve been a busy bee;)
Today, I’m filming with Karrueche Tran. If you have any questions for her, let me know!
I’ve been doing my very best to balance all these events and blogging! Shout out to the FBD team (Faith, Esmesha, Giselle, Ashley, Vuitton, Olamide, Pierre, and Sam) for holding it down!
After today things should slow down a bit, and we’ll get back to our regularly schedule programming.
Until then, what do you think? Which outfit was your fave?

We’re headed down to sunny Miami for today’s Bombshell, Niurka:
She writes, “Originally from the beautiful Miami, I bring my latin, Miami flare to my current home in Tampa Bay.”
” I was featured about 3 years ago and I’d love the opportunity to be featured again.”
” My style is ever growing and changing and I love that I can switch it up day to day.”
” Whether I’m running the streets in some comfy kicks, or if I am all dolled up for a night out, I love the fact that I can express who I am with my style.”
” Through the years I have built up enough confidence to love the skin I’m in and express who I am with my style.”
” Like Rachel Zoe says “Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak”.”

The LaQuan Smith brand continues to blow up, particularly with the patronage ‘it girls’, from Justine Skye to just about everyone in the Kardashian/Jenner clan. Sizzling socialites and songstresses have always been fans of the LQS brand–for Spring 2016, Smith ushered out even more saucy, thigh skimming, and occasionally scandalous style.
This season called for plays with fabrications, from tweed to denim. With the former, Smith offered skirt suits, racerback dresses, and floor sweeping coats. In the denim arena, he imagined jumpsuits, strapless dresses, and pencil skirts with paper bag waists.
For more formal occasions, the high slit, lingerie inspired frock reigned supreme. I can see many of tinseltown’s young and fabulous flashing their gams in one of his form skimming gowns for red carpet events.
Though crafted for the girly girl, Smith refreshingly offered a few wide legged pants and short sets.
I’m a fan of LaQuan, and already have a few tweed pieces and a denim pencil skirt on my lust list.
