Fave Fashion Look: The White Dress

White, the color of snow, vanilla ice cream, sketch paper, and comfy tees, has always been the perfect non-shade for summer. Girly, yet chic, white is perfect for the simple dresses available during the warmer months. Whether glammed up with a pair of sexy sandals or made sporty with retro Reeboks the white dress is forever classic and a wise sartorial investment.

Definition of the color white: of the color of milk or fresh snow, due to the reflection of most weight wavelengths of visible light, the opposite of black.

Observation of the Week: Vicqui’s Style-A Look Into the Past

Usually when I do the post for Observation of the Week I illustrate someone I see dressed effectively, on the bus, at a store, etc. but for the past few months I’ve been battling life on various fronts and haven’t gone out much. So I’ve decided to expand my observations to include styles worn on my sartorial journey and those who’ve influenced me. I will include favorite outfits, as well as trends, I’ve followed and icons I’ve emulated. I hope this expanded feature will inspire you and also help you chart your own journey

Fashion Inspo: Writing

The first teacher I had at AAU told the class if you want to be a good writer you should free write about five minutes a day. I don’t know how many small books I’ve filled since then, but I know it’s definitely helped my writing improve. Below is a prompted entry that I wrote today.:

What can you do to set yourself up for success today?

What I can do to set myself up for success today is complete my tasks for my daily blog posts on Instagram, Facebook, Lookin’ Good, Feelin’ Good and Every Day Fashion: Style for the Mainstream.

My Fashion Inspi today is writing, which includes writing implements, my journal and books.

I still would love to teach students in LAUSD how to express themselves through writing, but for right now that’s a dream deferred.
