The Iconic Jamesetta Hawking

[Pictures are not mine.]

The world lost an amazing songstress today. The iconic singer of various genres, Etta James passed away at age seventy three. I personally love how she was able to blend different genres, like rock and roll, blues, soul, jazz, gospel and rhythm and blues to create her own distinct sound. Her voice is one that will be always remembered, and never forgotten. 

I leave you with my favourite Etta James song and performance.


Besos, bendicione y buenas vibras

Love: Martin Luther King Jr and Coretta Scott

"People fail to get along because the fear each other; they fear each other because they don't know each other; they don't know each other because they have not communicated with each other"
-Martin Luther King Jr

Growing up, and still to this day, I love learning about individuals who fought for equality and justice for all. I remember being in the fifth grade, and learning about Martin Luther King Jr and his dream. He inspired me to create change; he assured me that, the bigger the dream, the better, that it did not matter about my age or race; I COULD DREAM AND CREATE CHANGE.


In honour of the late, Martin Luther King Jr.

Priscila Presley

I love this photo of the Presley's so much, that I want to have it blown up on canvas! I will one day, make an outfit inspired by this photo, me and Gabriel will rock out the Presley way!

Priscila Presley is a lovely lady. But personally, I prefer how she looked before all of the surgeries, which would be her teens/early 20s, I think.

She is one of my fashion icons.  Her outfits have always been boho/hippy/chic and sexy, while keeping it classy, and covered up.  The following images are some of my favorite Priscila outfits!
PICTURES DO NOT BELONG TO ME.
