It’s this inner essence that captured me most of all about LisaRaye’s new show. Right from the start you see she is the first to proclaim her well-deserved diva-ness, but it is her unique charm that will pave her path back into the spotlight. LisaRaye has nothing but love for her daughter and her unbridled care and devotion resonated off the screen. Though she has her own way of expression, her relationship with Kai (including drilling her new boyfriend and popping up at her job to check in with her manager personally!) will drive the show and create a new fan base relating to single moms dealing with similar (though less glitzy) issues.
LisaRaye’s distinct allure is also due to her obsession to ONLY wear white! Her entire closet showed white literally from head to toe, stating ‘I look good in white, that’s what I am rocking.’ A bold move and it must drive her stylist crazy, but I admire her stance and knowing how to work what she’s got. Looking like a Grecian Goddess I watched her as she spoke to the audience, a white off-the shoulder dress enhanced with crystals, LisaRaye was stealing the show with her radiance and I got to thinking, what is my signature?
Naturally, as a designer I am known for adorning jewels even to the grocery store, but I started wondering what I would wear to create my own signature? It’s a unique concept that is worth exploring. You may have noticed I adore maroon and gold – perhaps I will weave this color scheme into my every day garb. Or like actress Niecey Nash, who sports a signature flower in her hair, maybe my favorite calla lilly will spread seeds through my appearance. The idea goes back to the days of 1970's Laverne DeFazio who rocked the infamous script “L” on her blouse. I challenge you to think about what symbolizes you, and how you can leave a fashion imprint that embodies your inner beauty. Take the nod from LisaRaye, and unleash your diva within!
