Fashionista Spotlight

Meet Helecia

So you know I always give a description on why I picked this Fashionista.

This time the Fashionista Spotlight is on one of my fave Youtube Gurus.

Helecia(iknowlee)she is so sweet I say that about everyone but its true when it comes to her..

I love watching her videos on Youtube she always has pretty smile and always something positive to say.

Besides her being a Natural Hair Guru she has a BANGIN' sense of style!!

I live for her OOTD!!

Helecia was so kind to answer a few question for me about her style and about herself as well.

So when you guys are done go and subscribe to her Youtube Channel.

Helecia,Thank so very much for allowing me to feature you my Fashionista Spotlight..

xoxo Tracy

Your Name or (Nickname that you would like to go by:-):

Helecia is my real name. Most people can't pronounce it correctly so they just call me Lee Lee. That's where iknowlee came from

 

How would you describe your personal style in 3 WORDS??

My personal style could be described as vibrant, funky, and fashion forward.

Do you follow trends or make up your own rules??

I like to do a bit of both. I don't like all fashion trends so I'll tweak them to make it fit my personal style. At times I do just make up my own rules and wear whatever I desire to wear. Fashion is all about what you make it, there really are no rules to the came. Making up your own rules is exactly how trends come about. Somebody has to step outside the box

Who are some of your favorite designers?

I don't have any favorite designers. I have never really been into name brands. I couldn't tell you the difference between on fashion designer and another.

What are your main beauty items that you carry with you on a daily basis?

I have to carry some type of lip products whether it be a gloss, lipstick or just Vaseline. Anything else I can just about go without.

 

What are five MUST have clothing items that YOU think a girl must have??

I think the top 5 clothing item a girl must have are a fitted pair of denim, a loose cream top, a black blazer, black pumps, and pencil skirt.

Blackberry or Iphone?

Although I don't own either a blackberry or i phone, I would definitely stick to Apple products.

Forever21 or H&M?

H & M and Forever21.....that's a pretty difficult one. We actually don't have an H & M here but I have had the privilege of visiting one and that store would swallow Forever 21 alive. Forever 21's swarm the Houston area but are a bit over rated. Therefore I would op for H and M. They seem to have more of a variety and better quality.

Heels or Flats?

Hands down flats. I spend to much time on my feet to bear the pain of heels.

 

Twitter or Facebook?

Neither. That's not even an option though.LOL I could go without both of them. My passion is Youtube

 

Who's style do admire most?(Can be anyone!! Not just someone famous) and Why??

STYLE PANTRY! I don't know here name but she is extremely popular. I enjoy her style because its original and spontaneous. You cant just group her into one category.

Are there any blogs or websites that you follow for inspiration? If so who??

stylepantry.com

kisforkinky.com

curlynikki.com  

 

Describe your blog or website what should your followers expect from you??

 

I haven't yet started a blog but I have considered it. My Youtube channel is primarily based on natural hair styling and care. I do often throw in makeup tutorials, hauls and fashion styling

 videos. Its pretty much a mixture of what girls love the most. HAIR. MAKEUP. FASHION

 

What can people expect from you in the future?(Blogs,Projects,etc...)

I am particularly interested in doing collab videos with other YouTubers and Lookbooks
