For eight seasons, the cast of Will & Grace were a part of my life. Although Will Truman and Grace Adler may have been considered the main characters, I probably enjoyed watching Karen Walker and Jack McFarland just as much, if not more. So when it was announced that they were bringing the show back, I was ecstatic! Since it’s latest premier back at the end of September of this year, I haven’t missed an episode. My love for these characters is why I’ve invited Will, Grace, Jack and Karen to my house for a little {imaginary} dinner party. If you haven’t […]

Women of Style: JHUD and Miley

October 18, 2017 No Comments

I have been watching The Voice on NBC and I am totally mesmerized by Jennifer Hudson and Miley Cyrus. Not only are these two young women vocal powerhouses, but they are both beautiful and have their own unique style. I typically only spotlight one woman in this monthly “Woman of Style” feature, except for when I featured my favorite looks from the Oscars and the Emmys. I know these two ladies may be a mismatched pair for this “Woman of Style” feature, but their passion for both their music and their fashion make them perfect to be featured together as this month’s […]
