My New Year's Eve #OOTN

Hey, daring beauties! Hope your 2014 is off to a grand start, and I hope you had a great NYE! I know I did. I literally had my dream date at the Jill Scott concert at Radio City Music Hall. On the way there, I walked through the swarms of folks in Times Square, caught a glimpse of the ball, and took pics in Roc Plaza...nothing like a winter wonderland in the big city. Anyway, here is what I wore:

Lady Gaga Flaunts Weight Gain With Fashion

Just days after her weight gain controversy, Lady Gaga attends an event flaunting her curves in a body hugging, red Versace cut-out dress.

The pop icon recently said in an interview that she gained over 20 pounds and unleashed a fire storm after she released pictures of her in her underwear, completely un-photoshopped with a subtle caption that read: “Bulimia and Anorexia since I was 15."  Soon after she fired back starting a viral "Body Revolution" and wearing these frocks:

Shout out to Lady Gaga for a saying a big "F@&K You!" to all the critics-and looking kinda dope while doing so.

ICONIC+ BEAUTIFUL: ANNIE LENNOX, ANDROGYNY AND AIDS

"Some of them want to use you.
            Some of them want to be used my you.
                               Some of them want to abuse you. 
                                                 Some of them want to be abused."

Annie Lennox is one of the most striking women in music history to me. With a career spanning over four decades, her groundbreaking, electro-soul sound as one part of the duo Eurythmics defined a sound-and look-for pop icons thereafter. Lennox's bold. androgynous look was way ahead of it's time and absolutely timeless in my opinion. Now in her 50's, Lennox looks more stunning than ever; her skin is absolutely aglow.

But what's even more is her commitment to human rights as an outspoken AIDS/HIV activist and UN Ambassador. 
On when she decided to become an AIDS activist via Oprah.com:


"That moment, as I listened to Nelson Mandela,  propelled me forward. I evolved from being a singer-songwriter-performer-mother-woman to being an activist."






The British singer's audacious wardrobe are the subject of a six-month-long art exhibition in the UK. The  House of Annie Lennox will be showing from September 15 through February 26 at the Victoria and Albert  museum in London.

I for one can appreciate a woman who is comfortable enough in her own skin to wear more genderless gear. Lately I have been toying with different ways of incorporating  menswear into my everyday look...such a departure from my normal style, and I can't wait to rock it.

You should try incorporating a few unisex fashion looks in your wardrobe:
