Welcome to a new series on The Bougie Life blog called Best Friends Stylin’ (#BFS). Z has been my best friend for 17 years (I believe this year our 17th anniversary gift is furniture.... Yaayyyyy!) and has been my cheerleader though out my life and blogging journey. Anyone who knows us knows that we are practically joint at the hip. So, when I was looking for fashion inspiration, I did not have to look very far and the idea of #BFS was born.
This fashion series is to share our unique fashion styles and body types. We are celebrating our individuality and sharing our style evolution, keeping in mind we love our bodies and who we are inside and out. This was the best shoot I have done with the lovely Lena Bell and having Z there was so much fun. We laughed the whole way through the shoot. I hope this series will be a way to showcase our latest fashion addictions, seasonal trends and how we like to style same, but for different body types. Hope you guys enjoy!

So, who is my trusted sidekick? Z, recently went through a major physical transformation over the years and has lost well over 100lbs by changing her lifestyle through healthy eating and exercise. She is now a kickboxing freak and she can be found in the early hours of the morning in the gym kicking her trainer’s ass (and twice-on Saturdays). That is what hard work and dedication gets you, I am so proud of you!
I, on the other hand have picked up running... not running on the treadmill to get that workout sweat glow. But serious running, the kind of running where your ass gets numb from all the bouncing after a few miles (big booty problems). It’s been 2 years of casual running and it has grown into a competitive appetite. I am running my 1st half-marathon next month....eeekkkk its so soon!!! Keep an eye for that post!! I cannot wait to share it in June!
Do you have a best friend whom you share an open door closet with? Or a best friend whom you can pull a look for from her wardrobe you have memorized?
I hope to see some #BFS looks on social media!
Keep stylin' & keep slayin' sistas!
