Fashion Jamaican Style

My Island home of Jamaica is also known for its trends in fashion.  You didn't know this curvy divas?  Just attend any event where Jamaicans frequent and you will see some of the most fiercest fashionistas out there!  We do have a sense of style and we love to play with our fashion; and for some, the playing can be from the most demure, the most stylishly trendy, or even the most outlandishly outrageous!

I recently perused online at jamaica-gleaner.com (our local newspaper) a magazine that I remembered reading with avid adoration when I was a young teen, Flair Magazine, a Jamaican Gleaner production!  In an article entitled, "Spring Fashion's Wonderland", using the theme of Alice in Wonderland,  Garfene Grandison, Assistant Lifestyle Coordinator of Flair Magazine with the help of some local fashion bloggers featured fashion trends for Spring 2013!



I love this bold legging in a Harlequin design! (Is this the Queen I wonder?) This legging makes a statement with very bold red shoes and love the envelope purse!




I love that some men are not afraid to wear bold colors! (can you tell this is their Mad Hatter look?!)







Striking a pose!  There seems to be a party going on here!  Hmmm, I wonder which one is Alice?!  Again, bold colors & fashionably trendy!






To read more and enjoy the bold fashions please see the full article here!

Attendees at the event were welcomed by Fierce Entertainment's, Rob Henlon who then handed the program over to the vivacious Kristania Vielot who instructed the aspiring models for their walk down the runway, strutting their stuff for the designers and other members of the Fierce team. As the models strutted to the sound of the music-mix pumping, guests sipped and ate refreshments that were provided.   Before they walked the impromptu runway, I had a little  tête-à-tête   with three of the young models, Logan-9, Ashley-6 and Aiden-4,  beautiful, cute, and adorable , (who won't want me to call them that, but I am because they were) whose future will lead them to become what they dream of!   ...

Window Shopping Part Deux - What I Chose

As you know from my last article , I went shopping for swimsuit with my teen Mandi and ended up doing the same for myself. After all, I was in need of a new bathing suit. My last purchase for one was from Target eight years ago! And also during that time, I was the lucky recipient of two new suits from my BSFFL (Best Sister Friend For Life) who visited from Europe! So Those have lasted quite a long time!
