Streetstyle Saturday's

Hello Fashion Gladiators,

This weeks Streetstyle Saturdays edition is featuring a dynamic mother daughter duo. They are serving some true sporty chic and representing my alma mater, the University of Michigan. So you KNOW I had to showcase their fabulous looks! Yaaas honey yas! 

It's actually really difficult to determine who is the daughter and who is the mother because both look so radiantly beautiful. Check the yellow shoes to match the outfit and add that pop of color. Can you say committed to the look? Plus the sneakers are Air Ones. Yes! 

Ps sisters hair way LAAAAAID! 

Fun and fashion,

Nail Art History

Hello Fashion Gladiators,

How are we all doing at this onset of summer? Great I hope! Well I sure am doing fab! It's that time my lovelies... Nail polish in fantastic shades because it's summer time er...time! That's right, it's time for switching those shades to bright and colorful hues enhanced with some great nail art. 

Ever wonder how it came to be that we evolved from simple nail laquer to full on blinged out nail art? My newest article for YouQueen Magazine (YouQueen.com) will explain how nails went from only the elite to rhinestone paradise: http://youqueen.com/beauty/history-of-nail-polish/

Cheers to the start of summer!

Obeah for Fashion Decode Magazine

Hey Fashion Gladiators,

Nothing says more about a person than their personal scent. While we all have pheromones and omit a naturally alluring smell it is still the ultimate in seduction and fashion to have a signature scent. You can also be the type of person where your signature is wearing a variety of scents (like me). Either way, no other sense is as misunderstood yet as necessary as smell and nothing says more about you than your scent. With summer FINALLY in swing it's time to investigate just what your scent profile is and plunge into new scent territory. Fragrance creators like Obeah can help with that and luckily I've written an article for Fashion Decode Magazine that will shed some light on the sublime nature of scent:

What's YOUR favorite scent? Do you change smells based on the season? Do you like a variety of fragrances and aren't prone to wearing one solitary smell? Share your thoughts on all things smelly with me Fashion Gladiators! I always welcome your thoughts! 

Fun and fashion,

Otaymah, The Glamour Gladiator

Introducing Streetstyle Saturdays

Hey-low Fashion Gladiators!

Ya know what Glamazons? Not all great fashion happens on the runway. There is a lot of totally tubular threads showing right on the streets! Did you know that most designers actually get their inspiration from people on the streets? Thats riiiiiiight! Street fashion IS fashion. It's like Chanel said, "Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening." http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/blogs/542820/the-40-best-style-quotes-of-all-time.html

Going forward I'm going to institute Streetstyle Saturdays. In my travels I've come across quite a great display of dress and it's only right to show the world the people in all their peacocking glory! Isn't life fabulous? Well, I'd like to show those who put their best leg forward. Streetstyle Saturdays aren't just about clothing; it's about beautiful nails and skin too, all things beauty, fun, and life! Let's get outrageous and courageous Fashion Gladiators! 

The sister whose sassy style we start Streetstyle Saturdays with is named Denise. I met her on my way to Columbus Ohio. She is such a great character because her spunk and joie de vivre can be felt across the room. It's only right that her nails match her outgoing personality!  

Fun and fashion,
