Not sure if you saw in the September issue of Essence Magazine, but they honored a group of ladies with Street Style Awards. They gave me the Closet Crush Award (SO COOL) and I was in FAB company with June Ambrose, style editor/blogger Tamu McPherson and designer Azede Jean-Pierre. All ladies whose fashion game is on point! I mean, COME ON!

Essence Magazine (who recently gave me a super-awesome Closet Crush award) came to visit me on the set of black-ish and we chatted about their four favorite looks from my Instagram! Theres some long looks, some short looks, some looks that involve rap stars, (Yeezy and Pharrell, I’m looking at you) and more! Thanks again to Essence for considering me a style icon!! I’m really so flattered, and it gives me another opportunity to talk about one of the things I love so much:  my closet!!

T-Murda (copyright: YBF) strikes again…(by the way, I didn’t know what my rap name was and now I have one!) I attempt to decipher the lyrics of yet another song I hear on the radio. This time, it’s “Pass Me the Hookah” by Tyga and a fella named Young Thug. I obviously still have some questions even after finding the lyrics, so stay tuned for further exploration……

Perhaps you saw my recent Instagram video rapping along with Rae Sremmurd to No Flex Zone. I researched the lyrics so I could understand what I was bouncing along to in the car. It seems that many of us are confused by the meaning of this song and are searching for clarity about the zone. Well, I spent some time further exploring the zone…
