Marie Claire’s Holiday Fashion Segment: Yep That Was Me On TV, AGAIN (VIDEO)

December 14, 2012 | Filed in: Featured, Ty's Life

When Marie Claire columnist and oh-so-fab plus size blogger, Nicolette Mason, left me a direct message via Twitter requesting me for her second Today Show fashion segment I was way beyond stoked. I had just posted images of my Fox 45 segment and was flattered that she thought of me personally.

So my day began at 5am. Actually 5:40am! I pressed the snooze button in normal Ty fashion at least six times. Luckily I spent last night gathering my things for the am. After two fittings and four looks, Nicolette dressed me an ah-mazing look (all under $100) that I would totally rock from work to weekend!

Why I love coral lipsticks? This is really a no brainer!

For me it’s totally the new nude color of the season. Both coral lippys that I found were a cream based lipstick. Which, I am finding to be a new fave of mine. Something about matte lipstick that reminds me of cracked lips a la Tyrone Biggums on the The Chappelle Show. (feel free to LOL here!) Continue reading →

SO INTO IT: Chrisette Michele’s New Look & Those Fab Glasses (oh & I interviewed her too!)

October 28, 2012 | Filed in: Featured, INTERVIEWS, Music, STYLE

Chrisette Michele has a new look and new music. As a newbie to the red carpet interview scene, I will admit I was hella nervous, my hands were sweaty and shaky. And I certainly wasn’t prepared for the slick answers that Chrisette Michele  mumbled with her seductive voice. 

Rocking a simple pair of skinny jeans, a jean jacket, and a new cut that I am seriously swooning over, we chatted a bit (approximately three minutes) at Keith Campbell’s book launch. Continue reading →
