Hey!
Yesterday I was excited to work with JOHNSON’S® Brand to help build awareness around the versatility of JOHNSON’S® products.
The brand tapped me as a fashion expert to talk to attendees about the myriad ways you can use JOHNSON’S® Baby Oil Gel, Baby Powder, hand & face wipes, and more!
I’m a big fan of JOHNSON’S®, so it was a perfect fit! I already use JOHNSON’S® Baby Oil Gel to make my legs shine in the summer;) You can also use it to add moisture to your lips, soften cuticles, and lock in moisture after a shower.
From putting a little on wigs to make them look less synthetic, to using it to mattify makeup, ease thigh chafing, stand in as deodorant, make beds, use as dry shampoo, and help remove sand at the beach, baby powder is definitely a multifaceted product!
JOHNSON’S® hand & face wipes are great to keep on hand to remove germs and to remove makeup at night.
And lastly, JOHNSON’S® baby moisture wash with shea & cocoa butter can be used as a mild face wash, can clean your makeup brushes, and more!
Though I was already quite familiar with JOHNSON’S® products, I definitely learned a lot more yesterday! I took a bit of video with my team, I’ll upload it later this week.
Until then, leave a comment telling me the many ways you use JOHNSON’S® products. I’m already giving away a baby powder to a lucky Instagrammer; I want those who visit the site to get some goodies too;)
Smootches!
*For the event, I wore an Emma Cook London shirt (first worn here) and Frame Denim Wide Legged Flare Jeans.
She says, “I’m a wardrobe/personal stylist, creative writer for my own styling resource The Fuschia Files and marketing strategist for small businesses.”
” I reside in Boston but am in New York part-time for my styling business.”
” I’d describe my style as classic and effortless…”
“… with drama in every corner.”
” Fashion Bomb Daily is the epitome of the bomb and I can’t wait to be featured on it!”
We’re happy to have you! You have some great pieces! Love that Marc Jacobs tee and your Zanotti mules.

In today’s feature, we’re highlighting the stylistic musings of the lovely Freda Payne. Now, I have an entire list of Vintage Visions I (eventually) hope to spotlight but this iconic fashionista stole my heart when I ran across one of her candids via Pinterest.
Freda Charcilia Payne was born on September 19, 1942 in Detroit, Michigan. As a youngster, the songstress grew up listening to a multitude of artists including Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald; however- it was in 1963 when she began her own musical journey. She later moved to New York City where she collaborated with some of soul’s biggest names before releasing her own album in 1964 entitled ‘After The Lights Go Down And So Much More!!!’. In 1970, the singer released her hit single “Band of Gold” and its success was unparalleled. The song was written by Motown producers Holland-Dozier-Holland and sold over a million copies! Throughout the rest of her dynamic career Payne performed on Broadway, released countless albums and even hosted her own talk show.
Freda Payne’s style is nothing short of diverse. As I further researched her accomplishments, her ever-changing style was also magnified. I mean, she could rock a pair of crochet shorts and then turn around and don a vintage, silk gown! But, the factor that manages to hold each and every look together is her indisputable confidence. Her go-to pieces included fur stoles, jumpsuits and even sky-high platforms.
Want to know more about Freda Payne? Well, check out more of her amazing story here and here. She’s such a beauty!
**BONUS: Catch Freda Payne performing her hit single “Band of Gold” on Soul Train in the video below!**
In the meantime, I’m open to suggestions for future Vintage Visions. C’mon, let me know who you’d like to see featured! I’ll be looking out.
Amal Clooney is quite the fashionista, no?
She grabbed dinner at the Electric Room in Nottinghill with designer Stella McCartney, in a $2,280 lace jumpsuit of McCartney’s design.
Nude pumps, tassel earrings, and a yellow clutch were here accessories for the outing.
The lace macramé jumpsuit has a one shoulder cut. See it below in green.
Amal certainly has the height and frame for this piece, but the accessories don’t do it justice. A simple black sandal (like the Nudist) and a coordinating clutch would’ve looked more refined, no?
At any rate, if you can splurge, get her jumpsuit at MyTheresa.com.
Karrueche Tran Instagrammed her #ootd for last night’s Hennessy x Rap Up event, and flashed her legs in a $199 Just Enaj Olive Evening Gown:
The saucy pieces features a low back, and a high slit with a wrap front that adjusts to fit on the waist line.
The dress is made long so that it can be tailored to fit. Karrueche must not have had time to get to a tailor…but aside from that, she looks great!
Purchase at JustEnaj.com.
Hot! or Hmm…?
Being a face of a high fashion brand like Dior isn’t enough for Rihanna–she wants to also be a designer. Reports are surfacing that in addition to her recently launched temporary tattoos, the singer is set to drop an accessories collection. Apparently Rih Rih filed an application for a new brand called $CHOOL KIlls searching for rights to work under the category of leather and other clothing products. Sources have confessed that she will be dropping a line of totes and purses first and then going into full-fledged apparel later. Will you be buying? (Grazia)
Speaking of full, Fill Figured Fashion Week is going on this week with about 2,000 women expected to attend. The event will host 25 brands and 12 independent designers. Fruit of the Loom is the main sponsor of the events. (Fortune)
Lest you forget, Kendall Jenner is not just a model for Estee Lauder–she’s also a collaborator. As such, the social media star has just released a new shade of red lipstick that the brand characterizes as “part poppy, part orange crush, all matte, all Kendall.” If you need that in your life, pony up $30 for your limited-edition bottle of Restless.
Mass retailer Zara is being accused of racial profiling and discrimination in a new report from The Center for Popular Democracy. Apparently employees use the term “special order” to indicate to other employees that someone might be stealing and this term was disproportionately used towards black customers. Zara refutes these claims. (Racked)
In the wake of widespread calls for the state of South Carolina to remove the Confederate flag from the State Grounds, a few major retailers like eBay, Sears and Wal-Mart are banning the sale of Confederate flag merchandise. eBay says that “This decision is consistent with our long-standing policy that prohibits items that promote or glorify hatred, violence and racial intolerance.” (CNN)
Nothing screams summer quite like a gorgeous wide brimmed fedora! Patricia Field has several options in store, but I have an affinity for her $24 Paper Braid Option:
The wide brimmed option would be the perfect accent for a beachy excursion.
Take inspiration from Lupita Nyong’o, who wore a similar hat with a white bikini for a day in the sun and sand.
Thankfully Patricia Field’s option is more on the affordable side!
Get yours + peruse other hat options at PatriciaField.com.
Would you rock it?
