Teyonnah Parris' natural updo



Naturals showed up and showed out at the SAG Awards on Sunday, with Mad Men Actress Teyonah Parris taking the crown for the sky-high pompadour/tuck and roll/that gave me life!

Parris' twisted, rolled and tucked pompadour was perfect and oh so intricate -- a style that I haven't seen before. And Wendy Williams said natural hair wasn't "formal." #AintNobodyGotTimeForThat  Unfortunately, I don't look at Mad Men, so I was like Teyonnah who?

Shea Moisture BOGO At Target

Shea Moisture is BOGO at Target
Product junkies stock up now: Shea Moisture products are Buy One, Get One 50% Off at Target stores through Feb. 23. I don't think this deal applies online; only in stores.

I saw the discount while shopping at my Target store recently, and I thought Id' pass it along. As if you need any more excuses to shop at Tarjay! If you haven't tried Shea Moisture, now is the time. The BOGO specials aren't all that frequent, and many of the folks who love Shea Moisture stock up during these special sale times at retailers like Target and Walgreen's.

Shea Moisture is a cult product, with many curlies loving the Hair Milk and the Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie. My eczema prone and sensitive skin loves their African Black soap.

Will you be shopping the Shea Moisture BOGO at Target?

Roberts, who suffers from a blood marrow blood disorder and has battled breast cancer, is testing how her body responds to the studio environment and rigorous TV morning show host schedule. She looks great!

Music That Caught My Ears: Daley - Alone Together ft. Marsha Ambrosius




When I tell you that this song has been on constant repeat for 2 days! I LOVE this song. Seriously, could listen to it all day, again and again. First heard it on V-103 in Atlanta few weeks ago. Was driving in the car, but I tried to remember the title. Forgot about it, then found it on YouTube the other day (what did we do before YouTube, LOL).

The lyrics are sexy as hell. Daley, a soul singer from the U.K., reminds me of Simply Red from Back in the Day. His falsetto mirrors Marsha Ambrosius' voice perfectly. And of course, Marsha did her thing. Why am I just  hearing this song now, when it's been out for a year!

Love it!

What do you think of this song?

Bey's Hair At The Inauguration

Beyonce singing the national anthem at the Presidential inauguration
That color, tho!
Folks are talking about Beyonce's lip synching the national anthem at the Inauguration (I would have done the same thing, Bey and it's standard industry practice at important events), but forget about that: What about her hair! Bey debuted a thick, lush weave, slightly curled, that was so appropriate!


What did you think of Bey's hair?

FLOTUS in Jason Wu
Got the lowdown on what Michelle Obama and the first family were wearing at the Inauguration and the Inauguration. It included fashion designer Thom Browne and iconic brand J. Crew, as well as haute designer Jason Wu.

FLOTUS' inauguration ball gown was stunning -- a smashing red number by Jason Wu, which showed off her toned arms.
