This week witnessed tons of chic thanks to an NAACP event, the Daytime Emmy Awards, and diva Whitney Houston’s comeback performance:
I must say Ms. Houston looks amazing. Though her Good Morning America performance left a lot to be desired, her outfit and makeup were classy, flawless, and fierce! Coming up in second place for my week in chic nomination would have to be DJ Clue… Fix your face indeed!

Today we’re bringing it back to the States with Shenneth who lives in Washington D.C.!
She says, “ I’m just a petite girl who likes to dress up! Now that I’m in my mid-twenties, I’m starting to refine my personal style. I don’t try all the trends because honestly they’re not all flattering to short ladies like myself.”
“…I have a penchant for dresses, skirts and love shopping in vintage and thrift stores–older clothes tend to be cut smaller! My other petite girl trick is to buy jackets and blazers from the boys section of stores.”
Shenneth, the vintage look totally works for you, plus I’m *loving* your skirts and fun accessories!
