Caribbean Fashion Week this year was an explosion of colours and prints that tickled my heart’s fancies.

It was a pretty good night as far as the opening night of CFW…
I started to write a recap of CFW 2015 Emerging Designer’s Showcase and Night 1 when I realised I had signed up for a bigger job than my tired eyes were about to allow right this minute, so this first post is just a shout out to Cedella Marley who stole the show on Saturday…
Thanks to Sangster’s Rum Cream I’ll be enjoying Style Week and Caribbean Fashion Week this year and will be bringing you all the fabulous coverage. I got so excited that I even signed up for Snapchat which I think is the spawn of the devil so if you snap, then add me IrieDiva to see…
I had the esteemed pleasure of sitting with Jamaican Reggae artiste Etana recently as she prepares for the release of her fourth studio album I Rise. She also announced that she would be releasing a new line of skirts to compliment her t-shirt and jewelry already on offer on her website etanathestrongone.com. The line of…
Once upon a time I had a blog called Fashion Over Style where my main focus was giving shine to Jamaican fashion designers from all walks of life. Whether you had a t-shirt line or a high fashion line, it was on that blog. Notchilous Tees is one of the fashion lines that I featured…
Caribbean Fashion Week may have kicked the bucket this year. If Pulse doesn’t go back to the drawing board to deliver something different at the next staging, I am calling this year as the time of death. By now, we’re all used to the delays, and by now, we’re all used to the set. Please…

Summer Paradise is another collection I’m loving that has emerged this summer from our local designers. You’ll recall I wrote about this line previously here. The new line is fresh and updated with this year’s trends, cuts and colours. Let’s take a look: Stacia Davidson, the designer behind the line. Loving her hair! This picture…
Another celebrated Jamaican fashion line this summer is the new swimwear collection from Jae Jolly called Ocean Floor. It is a trendy line featuring mixed prints, high slits, teeny bikinis and bold colours. Let’s jump right in What makes this line so good is the mixing of the prints, the designer has a great eye…
Have you been keeping up with all the new lines launched from our faves?

This morning Rihanna shot a selfie in an eeny weeny teeny weeny yellow electric guitar bikini and it is from none other than Jamaican Nell Robinson’s swimwear line! Sheesh! It doesn’t even look this hot on the model (and the model is freakin hot) that dang bombshell Rihanna! Nell was super excited about this of…
The final night of Caribbean Fashion Week 2013 brought out well seasoned designers and top notch entertainment. Big names like Biggy, Ashley Martin and Gavin Douglas had me excited to return to CFW, plus I wanted to see how designers that I watched strut the runway last year would evolve. For my own look, I…
Caribbean Fashion Week 2013 held in Kingston, Jamaica really had it’s peak on Saturday night. That’s what is expected when your headliner is Kelly Rowlands and crowd favourites such as Kaysian Bourke and Barry Moncrieffe are showing.
