BlackGirlFitClub- Announcing my new wellness group and our t-shirt line!


Introducing: BlackGirlFitClub

Hello there, Fashionistas!

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted to this blog, but I’m so excited to be back!

First, if you’ve been following me on Instagram or on Facebook, you’ve likely heard me mention how I’ve been working on improving my health over the past 3-4 years. And, hunney, on some of those years it was an uphill battle!

Behind the scenes, I’ve always had a private Facebook group of sisterfriends that have kept me motivated, and who have inspired me to get healthy even when I wanted to give up. It started in 2016, when I thought becoming a Wellness Coach for a well-known fitness company might help me lose weight. (It didn’t)

Back then, a dear friend of mine and fellow Coach Hansa Ben encouraged me to start an online group for sisters of color who wanted to get healthy like I did. At first I thought ‘there’s no way I -with all of my food challenges- could ever be an example of how to lead a healthier life!’ But at the time, Coach Hansa knew something I didn’t-that her suggestion would later end up becoming a true passion and a calling on my life.

I’ll share more over time about how @blackgirlfitclub came to be, but for now let me say- I’ve had health and weight issues ALL my life. I’ve tried every diet plan from Jenny Craig, to SouthBeach, Atkins, Master Cleanse (for 40 days mind you).

You name it, I’ve done them all.

It wasn’t until I discovered that my issues weren’t with food or exercise at all. My issue was my relationship with self.

Happy Thursday Fashionistas!

I am sooo enjoying this heat wave we're experiencing in Colorado. Compared to the East Coast's humidity? I'll take hot and dry Colorado any day. That said, photographer Ryan Landell and I caught a scorcher in Boulder recently with both the heat AND this look ;).

Scroll down below to read more about it!

Catch you next time. R



I'm pretty OBSESSED with this skirt, can't you tell?

Happy Summer Fashionistas!

How have you been? I missed you! I've been doing well, working on SO many different projects for RajdulariMusic that I had to slow down on my fashion blog for a bit.

But, thanks to the incredible shooting I've been doing lately with Photographer Ryan Landell, I have some great looks to share with you. So, catch this one for now, and stay tuned for more coming up soon!

Lady in Red... (Eva Mendes NY & Co Collection)

Happy Thursday, Fashionistas!

Is it just me, or does the end of the year seem to be approaching a breakneck speed these days? Between holiday shopping, end of year activities, and all of the holiday parties, I'm sure we all are feeling the crunch of the holiday season.

That said, there's no reason why you can't still celebrate in style, ladies. ;) I'm OBSESSED w/the new Eva Mendes collection at New York & Company, and I love all of the PLUS-sized offerings they've included, especially this 'Lady in Red' outfit!

Scroll down below to read ALL about this week's look.

FIRST OF ALL, can we talk about how awesome this 'Marjorie Wrap' bodysuit is? 

Normally, I'm not a bodysuit girl. Because I'm smaller on top, many bodysuits are always too large on the top and wayyyy too small on the bottom.

But not this one, hunney! The color is vibrant, the fabric flows nicely. There's a button in the v-neck (to keep the girls in check ;)) AND the bottom fits my curvy butt easily. I felt like a hot curvy chick in this outfit, lemme tell you!



Next fave- this LINED 'Tyra' pencil skirt that hugs the curves in all the right places.

I rarely (if ever) buy lined skirts. Haven't for years. It's actually a fashion 'pet peeve' of mine, because most lining in plus skirts in my size usually won't even make it past my hips. And, if they did? The skirt was usually super roomy in the waist and way too tight in the hips. (I'm sure my 'big-bottomed' curvy girls know exactly what I'm talkin about ;)).



But that's not the case with this skirt! It's lined, tapered at the waist, and has plenty of room in the hips

to make you feel sooo curvy and confident strolling into the next holiday party!

All in all, I'm really in love with these Eva Mendes pieces, and I'm so excited to see what else I can try from her collection in the future. Finding fun, vibrant, high quality clothing like this for us Plus girls always makes my fashion heart so happy :).
