Stationery Designed by Sistas
Getting physical mail in my mailbox is so much fun. Check out the stationery collections by Effie's Paper and She's Got Papers, two African-American stationery designers. Sending a "thinking of you" note every now and then will really make your loved one's day....

Rose Gold Jewelry
Rose gold is back! I remember when I received a rose gold necklace for my 11th or 12th birthday. The pieces below would be great statement pieces with an all white and all black outfit.

Rompers and jumpsuits are making a comeback. Paired with pumps, statement jewelry, or a turban, you can turn a simple suit into a effortlessly chic look.

Home Decor by African American Designers
I searched high and low for home decor finds by African American designers - the results of my search were rather limited...perhaps this is a niche that has yet to be filled. Here are 3 finds that I would like to add to my collection. If there are other designers who have home decor lines, please enlighten me.

Ski Gear - Before, During, and Apres
Snowed in for the last couple of days? It's time to run for the hills and hit the slopes! I have been skiing (a season here, a season there) for about 9 years now. I absolutely love the culture. It's a great way to connect with other adventurous people during a season when most are in hibernation.
My ski parka and pants are as old as my fascination of the sport - I need an upgrade. The outfit has to protect me from the cold and wet snow with style and grace. I really like this Christy jacket by Marmot. The contour at the waist gives the jacket a nice feminine touch.
Which color do you prefer?
This set may be a little over the top - perhaps this is best for shopping at the ski boutiques and sipping an Irish coffee in the fire at the lodge. It's still very cute.
