The Blueprint: Tracee Ellis Ross

The Blueprint is a series highlighting celebrities who epitomize the word style.  Each look is a lesson in fabulous...watch and learn! 

Tracee Ellis Ross has been on my radar as a fashionista since her days as Joan Clayton on the beloved show "Girlfriends" and most recently has continued to define style and grace as Carla Reed on BET's "Reed Between the Lines".  But she doesn't just play a style icon on TV; being fierce is in her blood as she is the daughter of icon Diana Ross, and in her personal life she has proven time and time again that she has a keen sense of style.

Solange Knowles...singer turned actress, deejay, and spokesperson has recently added model to her resume. She has been known for her eclectic style, fashion risk-taking, and fab natural hair.  Here are some of my favorite looks:

Singer/actress Brandy Norwood is staging a major comeback with a guest spot on the much anticipated new season of Bet's The Game, duet with fellow R&B singer Monica, and a new album on the way.  She has been spotted all over the media while promoting The Game, and in my opinion she has been bringing the heat when it comes to her fashion.  With several  form-fitting mini dresses, an adorable short set, and killer stilettos, she looks absolutely stunning.

Every day I come across pics of celebrities and either admire or cringe at their fashion choices.  I created this series The Blueprint to highlight the positive and get ideas to incorporate into my own wardrobe. There is no better person to start off with than the First Lady of Style herself, First Lady Michelle Obama.  Her looks are always perfectly tailored with feminine silhouettes, and smart use of color.  I love this cobalt blue dress she wore to the White House Hanukkah celebration:
