Personal Style

Somebody lied, (I'm not a star--quick name that Rick Ross song!) I thought Spring was on the way? Isn't that what that groundhog said? We had that nice little teaser here in the city last weekend, the weather was perfect. I layered up and barely...

If ever I was an outfit, this look is what I'd be. A bunch of stuff that doesn't really go: polka dots, sequins, big necklace, over-the-knee socks, studded booties, topped off with a cape. I absolutely loved this outfit. I ventured to the Target in Harlem...
