COUNTDOWN: 5 days till FFFWEEK!!!

5. Tresses

Finding the perfect hairstyle is a must. It has to be current and it has to compliment your outfits. Whether you are natural, relaxed, braided, or weaved up, now is the time to make the final selection on your tresses for FFFWEEK.

a. My personal favorite are weaved hairstyles. It takes all the burden of your own hair to perform. I don't know about you but my hair often does it's own thing regardless of my direction. When you have a quality weave installed you have lots of options for big glamorous hair. It also allows you to work with colors that you wouldn't normal use in your own hair due to damage.

b. It is a great feeling of freedom that comes with wearing your natural hair. When I was fully natural I went from rocking a fade to twist outs. My favorite products were from Miss Jessie's and I would always rack up during their yearly BOGO sale. If you choose this route make sure you keep your hair moisturized. There isn't anyhthing worse then a dry fro.

c. Braids. I love the way braided styles look, but I can't stand the install. The Poetic Justice braids have made their way back to popularity and many women are taking advantage if this fun look. Having your hair braided promotes healthy hair as long as it is done correctly. When you have braids that are too tight you run the risk of your hair falling out instead of growing. While your hair is braided you also want to ensure that you are moisturizing your scalp.

Which ever style you choose make sure you are prepared to maintain and keep it up all week. Don't do anything for the first time, you don't want to spend too much of your time trying to fix your hair. Get ready for these cameras by picking the style best for your tresses.

Swim Thick with Francie Maupin

Francie Maupin has been sketching fashions since her preteen years so it was only a matter of time before she put together a line of her own. She introduces The Diva Kurves Collection by premiering, Swim Thick, a line of swimsuits geared toward curvy women. In a market where the bar for plus sized swimwear has been dramatically raised by Monif C, Nakki Muli, and Cacique, Swim Thick is pushing its way into the mix to make sure all the curvy ladies are covered, literally. Swim Thick will cover standard sizes but will also offer options for ladies with bottom heavy proportions so that they will be able to find swimsuits that fit their curves just right. The extra focus on the ladies with extra curves definitely sets Swim Thick apart from other plus size swimwear. We dig in deeper about Miss Maupin and the release of Swim Thick: How did you start? What triggered you to start a swim line? It seemed like every time I would enter a store or boutique and ask, "where are the plus...

#LiveFashion with Stylist Jackie Turner

Fashion is built on foundation. In order to look good from the outside you have to start solid. Words of gold from Jackie Turner, an aspiring stylist out of Atlanta, fashion is her life... Turner is on a mission to become a personal stylist. Her goal is to help women who struggle with self esteem by showing them how to accent their true selves through fashion. Turner believes that when women are able to see themselves in a mirror how they see themselves in their heads, the positive visions, they can begin to accept and express who they are freely. Turner has had to over come obstacles in her own life and so her theories are from experience. Bullying and mean girls had been part of her every day struggle until she realized that she had a voice. Once she started to realize that she was in control of who she was and that she did not have to be what they told her she began to form her own personal style. Soon other people n...
