LOVE Rescued Me with Tamecka Petty

February 14th 2012

A body covered with torn cloth, smile hidden by pain, talents stifled by circumstance all leading to the undiscovered passion that runs through the veins of Tamecka Petty. I use these words to the paint the picture of a young lady that comes from very challenged background, full of turmoil and abuse. But through it all, she survived to become a woman of great promise and success. Tamecka is now the proud owner of CRAVE CupCake.

Men’s OuterWear Autumn 2012

November 20th 2011

This time of year marks my favorite season. It calls the sweltering summer months to an end and brings about brisk days and cools night. The trees become bare of the leaves that once brightened our spring and shaded summer months, they are left to weather the cold months, withering, free of the foliage that once adorned their limbs. For us, we have a amazing opportunity to pack on their layers of our favorite sweaters, skullies, parkas, trenches, and for some, a pair of long-johns. However, you decide to forge forward into winter, there are fashion choices to make you STYLISH yet still masculine and attractive to the eyes of those looking.

Women’s OuterWear Autumn 2012

November 20th 2011

I have never been one to hop the “trend-wagon” by shopping according to what’s hot at the moment. I’ve always found myself looking for staple and Stylistic pieces that build a wardrobe versus items that are disposable or just in for a season. I guess I find it easy being a man and having limited choices when it comes to trends anyway. However, when it comes to the wonderful choices in womenswear, it’s virtually impossible not to follow suit or at least take a short ride. Designers have been revisiting trends for years now by reworking, sprucing up, and embellishing the looks that once flooded our streets and retail racks.
