Truthfully, I’ve waited for the release of #thewadeunion photos because I knew that Gabrielle Union would be a beautiful bride.
She’s giving us regal glamour in the picture above with beach wave hair, diamond earrings, and a heart shape gown. And looks severely “hot” in the jumpsuit below!
One of the most important beauty routines that any girl can have is a good oral routine. Having a beautiful smile can make all the difference that a new lipstick or dress can bring. And it’s a simple process that starts with purchasing a toothbrush that removes plaque, polish the teeth, and adds freshness to the gums.
I had the chance to sample their toothbrushes and received amazing results. Personally, I like the grip style and angled bristles because you want to adequately hold the brush for positive results. The new colors were also a nice plus, especially in my home because you want to make a clear distinction between the toothbrushes.
To purchase a Reach toothbrush visit your local drugstore or grocery store and enjoy the results!
Kim Kardashian gave a “wow” factor when she appeared at the GQ Woman of The Years Awards wearing a stunning two piece dress. The design is actually a fitted latex bodysuit (Atsuko Kudo) and beaded skirt with a fishtail train from Ralph & Russo.
Kim’s accessories were very simple with a beaded bracelet and strappy Tom Ford pumps. I like the combination of this style…very sexy, glamorous, and couture. Fashionistas, what do you think?

Let’s talk about beauty products you need to have in your life! As several of you may not know, I suffer from dry skin…all year long. I am constantly searching for something to help combat my never ending skin care issues.
I was contacted to try Palmer’s new products, ranging from dry mist oil to spray lotion. I have a history of using Palmer’s throughout my pregnancy and for minor blemishes. Eager to open my box, this package lived up to my expectations and more!
But it wasn’t just about the packaging, every product was outstanding and I have three favorites: Rapid Spray Moisture Lotion, Cocoa Butter Formula Heel Repair, and Skin Therapy Oil.
The Rapid Spray Lotion definitely comes in handy when you’re busy and need to apply lotion quickly. And you can carry this bottle in your tote if you need to re-apply. After trying another brand’s spray lotion, I personally feel this is the better option because it lasts longer and makes the skin glow due to having Vitamin E, Cocoa Butter, and Aloe.
The Cocoa Butter Heel Repair can also be used in between pedicures and with your nightly beauty routine along with the Skin Therapy Oil (for your face) but I’ve also applied this to other skin blemishes.
To purchase Palmer’s products, visit your local drugstore or online at Palmer’s.com

If you or someone close to you has been impacted by cancer, you know that the appearance changes women undergo while coping with cancer treatment – like beauty itself – are far more than skin deep. These changes can impact a woman’s self-esteem and sense of self at a time when she needs it the most. Twenty-five years ago, one doctor decided to make a difference. When a patient wouldn’t leave her hospital bed because of her appearance following cancer treatment, he made a phone call to a friend in the beauty industry. Look Good Feel Better was born.
The Look Good Feel Better program offers free workshops that teach beauty techniques to help women cope with the appearance side effects of cancer treatment; thereby giving them self-confidence and helping them regain some normalcy in a life that is by no means normal.
Look Good Feel Better is a collaboration of the Personal Care Products Council Foundation, the American Cancer Society and the Professional Beauty Association.
Going on vacation is an exciting time for any fashion girl. But there’s always the dilemma of packing for an extended amount of time. Honestly, it can become overwhelming and the thought of going through airport security’s mentally exhausting.
We shouldn’t let that distract us from looking fabulous and having a good time. To help us get motivated I want to share a few quick packing tips:
1. Always pack a variety of summer dresses – whether it’s a maxi or shift dress. Packing a dress makes room in your duffle bag and you don’t have to iron!
2. Use accessories to dress up your vacation style or tone it down. Pack a fedora hat (so we don’t have to worry about our hair) add a belt to cinch the waist for a sexy look and a few statement necklaces to dress up a basic t shirt.
3. Your shoe collection should also be effortless style. Include flip flops (easy to put on) flats for a cool night and two pairs of pumps. In terms of pumps, I like to go with a basic color that coordinates with any garment such as nude or black.
4. Undergarments need to reflect your coordinated pieces. For example, a new mom should include a slimming camisole to keep the abdominal muscles (firm) underneath a blouse. We can also add a bodysuit for that gorgeous dress that shows your curves.
5. In terms of pants, consider a pair of shorts, jeans, or even leggings. All three are great options when packing your vacation attire because they’re transitional pieces that can mix and match.
6. Don’t forget your swimsuit – I like to keep two options in mind; one swimsuit for a sexy date and another suit for having a good time (you’re not concerned with your appearance in this suit because it’s comfortable.)
Packing for any trip can be demanding but with the right tips and perspective, we can have an amazing time and still look great!
Basignani Winery is one of Baltimore’s premiere vineyards, located near Falls Road. Established in 1986, Basignani hosts a variety of events throughout the year and local Marylanders can visit for a tasting, movie night, farmer’s market, or tuscan christmas event.
As a member of the Junior League of Baltimore, our President Elect – Cylia Lowe hosted a July BBQ at the winery for members. We enjoyed a traditional wine pairing starting with dry white, dry reds and sweet wine. Members also savored a variety of cheese and cracker selections to help enhance our palate.
Normally I prefer a glass of Chardonnay but after enjoying a few options at Basignani I concluded that the tasting was worth the visit. And aside from having delicious wine and cheese the vineyard was beautiful and comfortable. Visitors were also able to purchase a bottle of wine after their pairing to take home.
We concluded our afternoon under the patio (piazza) with a meeting and chat. The location made a beautiful backdrop for photos and warm memories.
If you’re looking for a relaxing afternoon and beautiful atmosphere, visit Basignani Winery and tell them Style + Life + Fashion sent you there!
