Designer Spotlight: Fhonia Ellis
I love finding new designers that are grinding to make a name for themselves in the fashion industry. There are so many, yet their inspirations, attention to detail, intricate designs and exactly how bad they want to be known is what set them apart from their competition.
I ran across this designer for the first time a few weeks ago, on one of my favorite fashion sites and fell in love with her designs. I did a little further research and decided to write a post on her and never got around to it. But because it's fate, I recieved a random email telling me about this HOT designer and it just so happen to be the SAME one I peeped for the first time a few weeks back.
Her passion began in high school, when she began making clothes for her friends. In efforts to pursue her dreams, she created her own line and it's coming along VERY well!

"The thrill in fashion for me is taking a risk and daring myself to make it work. Even when I go shopping, I always buy something twisted and I know I’m going to have to figure out somehow to pull it off and make it my own."
"I’m a big fan of mini-dresses – they're my favorite silhouette – because they're flirty and you get to show a little skin without revealing too much, especially if the sleeves are long and cover up a lot of the body. I also like dresses that come to the knee that are a little tight and show off the shape of the body."
"I like to wear out my clothes because I think I spend so much money on them that I have to wear every cent out of them. I especially love when I have a piece, like a jacket, that I can wear so many different times with so many different things."
"I like ankle boots because somehow they always give a great shape to my leg, like I’ve been working out a lot!"
"For everyday, I like jeans that are supposed to be skinny jeans but aren't tight. I like them tomboy-ish so that they're almost a size or two bigger than my normal size and slouch a bit. When I go out, I like a more structured jean because, for my body, they're more flattering on my legs."
"I really like cat-eye sunglasses, but I would say my favorite everyday shape is [the shield] straight across on the top, because they're really flattering for the shape of my face. "
"I love sneakers and my favorite sneaker is the Nike Blazer. I don't really like low-tops, but if a high top is paired with skinny jeans, it makes your feet look really big, but the Blazer gives a really good shape for girls, especially with skinny jeans."
Solange goes GLAM
I never really cared too much about Solange, no specific reason, it was just something about her that never appealed to me. However, after seeing and reading interviews featuring Solange over the past couple of months, she started to grow on me.
I applaud her for overcoming the obstacles that she has faced and for successfully making a name for herself outside of the limelight of her famed sister Beyonce.
She recently had a photoshoot with Refinery 29 and shared her views on her style and fashion..
here are a few of Solange's responses..

here are a few of Solange's responses..You've got such unique style, would you ever consider being involved in the family fashion business, Dereon?
"Why thank you very much! It's funny you ask because I initially was involved as the spokesperson, but the clothes just didn't reflect my personal style and I decided to hand that over. That's the great thing about my family. We work together so closely that if something's not working out, we can be honest about it and there won't be any grudges or issues. I wrote a couple of songs on my sister's last album and if there's a line she doesn't like, she changes it and we keep on moving. I will say though, they did just do a bedding line that I am extremely in love with and I was like, 'Can I model that... in my house?'"
What inspired the bold new 'do? You mentioned you can no longer hide with that hair, has it changed the way you see yourself?
"When I was recording, I was staying in a house with five guys and two showers. I knew there would be a shower wait everyday and with my natural cropped hair, it's mandatory that I wash it otherwise it gets stuck to my head like glue! I wanted to get something that I could literally roll out of bed without looking nuts. I watched so many Chaka Khan YouTube videos and became sort of obsessed with her during the process. I went to my stylist and said 'Give me the fro.' I walk differently now, sing differently; This hair has spirit and soul."
If your style were a song, what song would it be?
"For sure Q-Tip's 'Vivrant Thang'."
Who are your style heroes?
"My mom in the '70s and '80s! She was a bad bitch. Sex and the City totally jacked her steez on the camels. I have a pic of her on a camel ride in Egypt in the '80s serving the hell out of that desert! Also, Diana Ross, The Fela Kuti Queens, Björk, '70s-era Chaka Khan, Chloë Sevigny, '90s Erykah Badu."
What's your secret style weapon?
"Shoes! I'm all about the shoes! I order a ton of them online and play with my entire wardrobe until I find the right shoe. Unfortunately, so many people get it right from the head until the ankles. The shoe is very important. I can't even fuck with you if your shoe game is slacking."
