heart unique color
I buy what makes my heart sing. So, it's not that I follow one specific track. It's sort of what I like. I love colors. I love unique pieces. I love vintage clothing.
curious thinker
I've always been a curious thinker. And now, as an adult, I can articulate it.
sailing
Nothing goes to windward like a 747.
thinking looks accepting
I hope they look at me and think, 'That lady looks like she accepts herself.'
mom children sibling
Because of my unique experience as my mom's child, the beginning of my journey was more about me trying to figure out who I was on my own. My mom is one of the greatest moms and so supportive of all my siblings and of all of us being who we are, and not who she wanted us to be.
pondering whole-life
Why am I beating my hair up? Because I want it to look like something that it isn't? These are questions that I've been pondering my whole life.
inspirational life differences
Differences in experience, points of view and opinions aren't what pulls us apart. It's what pulls us together.
beautiful trying feels
I'm trying to find my own version of what makes me feel beautiful.
fashion organization heaven
I was spoiled when I worked in the magazine world. Fashion closets are heaven and I seem to model my organization after a fashion closet.
journey people sick
Someone asked me recently, "Do you get sick of people asking you about your hair?" And the reason I don't is because I actually feel like you could chronicle my journey of self-acceptance through my journey with my hair. It's a badge of something bigger.
indulgence
There are a ton of foods that are great for you, that's like an indulgence.
black different way
Black-ish is really a show about an American family and these are some of the topics that come up - for all of us, in different ways - and we get to see how this family is walking through it.
jobs thinking people
I think television is doing a better job than films in terms of representing people, but television is still not diverse.
children makeup style
I wanted Bow's hair and makeup and clothing to look like a woman who has four children, a career, and a full life. For example, she won't wear eyeshadow unless she's going out. Because it takes a lot of time to put eyeshadow on. She's a woman who has style, but it's all about functionality - she grabs stuff from her closet.
