We're highlighting cool Black Lives Matter t-shirts from Black-owned brands, (most small businesses, some woman-owned, some customizable.) #GoodTrouble
Juneteenth celebrations are on the horizon, and we just noted the commemoration of Tulsa Race Massacre, which happened 100 years ago this week, as well as the one-year anniversary of George Floyd's murder and the reignition of a movement. As we reflect on these events and strive to support our communities, and as part of our ongoing commitment to...

Handbags? Hobos? Totes? These words ring any bells? It's been awhile (more than a year, actually) since we've had anywhere to go that required a pretty handbag, but as coronavirus restrictions ease, we're starting to dig bags out of the depths of our closets. And while we're looking forward to what we're (optimistically) calling a semi-normal summer, one...
The perfect Mother's Day gift is here. We're LOVING this makeup brush from Yubi Beauty. Think: smooth, airbrushed finish without patchiness
This makeup brush is a game-changer, friends. It applies foundation (and blush and highlighter) flawlessly...with zero learning curve. Adiya Dixon Wiggins, creator of Yubi Beauty, originally made the Yubi brush to simplify her makeup routine. She wanted a way to apply makeup that was fast and easy and didn't require a bunch of different tools. The Yubi brush is...
Tweens have STRONG opinions. Apparently, Stuff Their Mom Picks Out is NOT COOL. But, we scored some kids' clothes hits: Spergo (Black-owned) & Jackalo (sustainable).
I can no longer dress my boys -- at ages 10 and 13 they have their own (very strong) opinions about what is and what is not cool. And apparently, Stuff Their Mom Picks Out is decidedly NOT COOL, GUYS. Not cool. (Let's ignore, for the moment, that my very job is scoping out trends and trying to...

I wanted to read about Black joy, Black struggle, Black justice. I wanted Black voices in my fiction and non-fiction. I wanted suspense + drama + humor all written by Black authors.
The only time you will find me quiet is when I am engrossed in a book. I appear pretty outgoing -- and I can be -- but my natural state is that of a homebody. My ideal day would be spent near a crackling fire, wrapped up in a faux fur blanket, a stack of books within reach and some...

Handmade jewelry from a Black-owned business....I fell in-love with BR Design Co + their playful earrings in all sorts of colors, shapes & textures.
My future sister-in-law (no pressure on my brother!) bought me a pair of stud earrings for my birthday this past December (Capricorns unite). "I thought you'd like them because they're studs" (practical, yes) "and because they are from a small Black-owned business." (YES. QUEEN. Marry this woman immediately before I do, Jack).

Once again proving that Nichole of Shop Mrs. Jones is inside our heads...she just launched, for the sick-of-sweatpants crowd (yessss), this flannel jumpsuit.
We've been Shop Mrs. Jones superfans ever since we discovered her made-for-sneakers-dress. I was hoping Nichole (the designer) would come out with something just as fun for winter, but she's a one-woman shop, so I had to wait for it. This Flannel Jumpsuit Is The Cure For Your Sweatpants Blues Once again proving that Nichole's inside our heads...she just launched,...
