Riding the Heat Wave


Hey y'all! Hope everyone is enjoying the summer thus far. Summer has been in full swing here in Boston. We just got over a major heat wave, but who's complaining, it's much better than being cold. It was hard to think about having to get dressed in such extreme heat. Much like dressing for the cold, fashion takes presedence; after all, "once a fashionista, always a fashionista". In our opinion it's much easier to dress for the summer because there are so many cute, flirty pieces you can pair with bold sandals or shoes. Check out our outfits below, to see what we wore to combat this warm weather.

May Haitianista of the Month!!!

Hello Readers! My sister (Cassandre) and I have been doing alot of traveling lately but we have not forgotten about our readers. As promised there is a Haitianista for each month. For the month of May we would like to introduce you to our fabulous Haitianista of the month:
Name: Kayla Shivers
Age:23
Resident: Durham NC
Social network: tumblr-honeydippedwildflower
My fashion style: I'm like a gumbo of J. Crew, Madewell, Lucky, and Urban Outfitters. I love bohemian styles in the summer, full denim and leather in the fall/winter. I can go from looking like the 70s to an NYC/LA street chick to a southern belle! Just depends on the day. Inspiration: personally my grandmother and mother built my fashion roots. My grandmother headed north in her early 20s and became a shop-a-Holic which then passed to my mother and then me! My grandmother always encouraged my fashion taste even if it was a little offbeat. She knew the importance of being an individual. My celebrity fashion inspiration comes from June Ambrose and Rachel Zoe! LOVE their commitment to their own personal styles (June's love for hats and Zoe's bohemian chic addiction), but yet they help their clientele stay true to themselves. So professional! I've also started following this blogger Irina Lavicevic. She's a dentist by day and fashionista by night and that's basically my dream!!! What I'm up to: currently I am on my way back to school at North Carolina Central University pursuing a second degree in Chemistry. I'm also applying for the 2014 cycle of dental school (so send your blessings my way!). I work in retail at Loft and I waitress on the side, in my free time I volunteer and shadow local dentist in the Durham area.
