Back! I have been gone for a while! Although blogging is enjoyable it is also extremely time-consuming…(in a good way)! Along with blogging and becoming a blogger, I always wanted a boutique as well! So that’s where I’ve been! Chasing dreams and working on making them my reality! http://www.shopjayla.com is up and live! Geesh it’s…

Hey and welcome to my Blog! My name is Steffanie Monae. I’m a San Francisco, Bay Area native and an SFSU alumnus with a Bachelors of Science degree in Fashion Merchandising and Marketing. I have over 13 Years of Fashion Styling experience and currently, work as a Personal Stylist, Fashion and Lifestyle blogger.
I love being a Personal Stylist, Fashion and Lifestyle blogger because it provides me the opportunity to help women feel empowered. There are many ways to empower women and I have been blessed with the ability to do that as both a Stylist and blogger. And, for that I am thankful!
Ok, enough about all the facts and professional information blah, blah, blah. Let’s talk about why this blog platform means so much to me.
I grew up in Oakland, CA and became a mother to a beautiful girl in my late teen’s. Who is now a Tween! It is important to me to be a woman my daughter can always look up to. A woman who possesses drive, integrity, intelligence and so much more. I also, find it important to be a woman that can empower other women. I want to help women strive daily toward being the best version of themselves. There is so much beauty in being the women God created us to be.
I hope as I continue to grow and challenge myself it will inspire other women. Throughout my life, I have had my share of ups and downs, wins and losses but in the words of the famous poet Mya Angelou, “Still I rise”. So, in theory, this blog isn’t just for you, it’s for us. This platform is a representation of me leaping.
As I journey through life, my faith, family and a keen sense of style are always constant. Personal Style has been my love since forever and it is my personal, peaceful outlet. That is why a career as a Personal Stylist, Fashion and Lifestyle blogger is considered a blessing.
I hope with this blog, I will inspire women through my style, advice, tips, heartfelt life stories, and experiences. Extremely grateful for the woman God continues to shape me to be! Welcome to my lifestyle!
Love and Blessings,
Steffanie Monae

Dinner and the club were the planned outings over the weekend in celebration of my big sis’s birthday! Of course, the club was a costume party, so I had to cook up sometime. Since I was already wearing flare jeans, I thought a Diana Ross look was more than appropriate. 70’s women wore big glasses,…
