Outfit Elements:

1. The Crown- Early stages of locs. I loved my hair this year. It took 3 months to lock. I washed it myself once a week. I did not twist it much because I liked the roots thick and I liked the new growth to show- I’ve always liked rugged locs.

2. Manicure- Clear polish.

3. Make-up- not into, mascara, foundation, blushes, etc. However, I really like tinted lips so I often wear a light coat of lipstick. I like Iman’s brandy. Very nice.

4. Jewelry- Gold jewelry. Bangles- Forever 21, ring- consignment shop, earrings, Indian & African clothing store circa 2006; watch- a booth in the mall (can’t remember name)

5. Dress- Dillard’s

6. Jacket- Dillard’s

7. Socks- Marshall’s

8. Book- My fav book from college: Before the Mayflower

9. Shoes- DSW circa 2009
