Atti: The Philanthropist Beauty Queen Fash-hole

 Photography by Zofia Glenn

I caught this beauty while strolling home from work this Summer. I was taken with her whole white and black ensemble and her ability to look incredibly sweet while also exuding a quiet sexiness. It's a fine line and not one that many can pull off. Once I learned more about her, I can see where it comes from. This lady is not only beautiful and chic, she is also smart, successful and caring, giving back to her country of Ethiopia through her non-profit Seeds of Africa.

Zofia: The Sheer Nightgown Fash-hole

Photography by Sheldon Kreiger

Happy September Fash-holes! While we are still in the final throws of Summer (hey, it was 90s this week), I thought I would go back into the archives and post some of my favorite summer looks before Fall finally settles in. This outfit is from a wedding I attended this Summer at the beautiful Philadelphia Water Works for this absolutely stunning bride. I must admit, I love, love, love this whole look and felt like a million bucks in it. The dress was borrowed from my boss and is a vintage nightgown with a simple black slip underneath! And just happened to be that perfect midi length that is a huge trend for Fall and Spring. 

The other favorite part of this look was my hair. I went to see Tasha Jetter at AMS Luxury Salon because I heard she was the best (she used to work at the mothership, Bergdorf Goodman) and it was the only spot in Philly with a Braid Bar. Well, I was not disappointed. In less that 5 minutes Tasha had whipped my hair into a wrap around french braid that felt loose, fresh and romantic, but best of all, did not budge the entire night (and I am a huge head whipping dancer at weddings. Always throw my neck out. Always) and was only $20!! Anyways, Philly ladies, I highly recommend you check her out and she now does ponytails too!
