A Diary of A Boujee Black Girl

Welcome to my pretty chaotic and hopefully life changing blog! I know what your thinking what's with the name? Does this even apply to me? I choose this name because for a majority of my life I always was labeled as "boujee" from the way I dress, my standards, the way I speak and more. Just because it was "not the norm" especially for my generation. So this blog is for the girls and guys who are just like me or even want to tap into their more luxurious side.

"Boujee"

A Style for Every Story

Fashion is artform, comprised of things you find acceptable! Many of us tend to follow certain trends or styles of celebrities, to create our own "fashion statements". But have you ever stopped and thought is this actually what I like, is this my style, does it fit my shape?...… We must learn to become our own influencers of fashion, wearing what makes you happy whether that's the highest heel from Christian Louboutin or a Nike Tech Jogging suit. Fashion = Art, but you are the one painting the story.
