I love to read and have been reading since I was potty trained. I grew up at a time of Scholastic book fairs and I started off reading the same books girls my age were reading- The BabySitter's Club, Sweet Valley High, Judy Blume and even some Nancy Drew... But at some point around the age of nine or ten, two things happened- I somehow discovered "Pimp" by Iceberg Slim and I snuck and read my mother's copy of "Waiting to Exhale" by Terri McMillan. I wanted to read the Terri McMillan because the cover art featured the abstract black faces with vibrant geometric shapes for clothes and hats. I still don't remember who introduced me to Iceberg, but I spent a lot of time in libraries when I was in elementary so who knows- I probably discovered it myself.

Few things remain the same in the name of change, but one event that has consistently been going on for the past forty three years in Cleveland, Ohio has been fashion designer Mrs. DeeDee Tufts-Carter's Designer's Palace Pre- Valentine's Day Celebration! I attended last year's show and was razzle dazzled and this year it was no different held on February 11, 2018, at the Ken Ferguson Party Center. You already know it was full of life, glitz, glamour and FASHION!

This is the week of Marvel's Black Panther movie debut based on the comic book series and my immediate focus has been on the fantastic look and feel of the futuristic African warrior inspired costumes provided by Oscar and Emmy winning costume designer Ruth Carter.

Valentine's Day is right around the corner and there is no better reason to dress up- whether you are single or taken. Get ready for a hot date with your significant other, an over the top Galentine's Day celebration with your girl's or get dressed up and spend the day loving on yourself like I plan to do! Either way, I have outfits that will make you look fabulous on February 14th.... |
