bead of
the moment dec '04
REDefining Style!!
It's the end of the year, so let's say
goodbye to 2004 all decked out, smelling so fresh and so clean, and looking
HOT AS HELL!!! I happened to be in the
bead spot the other day, and saw some HOT beads that I just had to get! So I've incorporated them into this month's
bead of the moment. I want you all to look RED HOT
and feel sooooooo adorned you would
swear you were a queen in a past life (like I do!). I have 3 waist bead styles
for you PLUS the t-shirts that some
of you see me wearing at the different festivals AND a list of people and places YOU NEED TO CHECK OUT
for your holiday gifts, Kwanzaa gifts,
and because they have RED HOT PRODUCTS!!!
There are two different styles for December that are fancy and fun! The top
style Clubin', is an all
red two strand fun waist bead. Made of all glass, it has red sparkly beads,
and various shaped red beads, from flat ovals, to mini lotus beads. Perfect
for going to all the clubs, to wear with your super tight low-rise jeans,
or to wear over that very fitted skirt. $30
The bottom style, Ballin' is for those very special events, like the Office Christmas
party, or that New Year's Eve Party. You get all dressed up, putting on your
hottest shoes, and your sexiest lingerie, and spraying on your best perfume.
But WAIT!!! You have to put the cherry on top and wear your fancy waist beads.
Ballin' is
the fancy all glass, with faceted drops that are deep deep red like garnet.
And there's deep dark sparkly glass beads, with faceted saucer beads, and
diamond shaped beads. It's BEAUTIFUL!!!! $40
....................................................................
If you happen to be one of the chosen
ones....and you actually get to leave and go somewhere HOT!!!, then this one is for you! There's nothing like
going to a beach.....Glistening and smelling tropical and wearing waist beads.
Why is there nothing like it? (Good question!), because not every woman is hip
to waist beads with their bathing suits. It really does complete the beach
look! When I last went away somewhere hot, I had a set of beads to match all 7
of my bikinis! Beach Mama
goes with every suit you have because it has every color! It also has little
seashells, small gold toned drops and this glass bead that I found. It reminds
me of a ruby red grapefruit. Not quite red...slightly orange with some pink. $35
....................................................................
Many of you stop into the tent at
different festivals I do, and you see me and my mannequin Lola wearing the
official waist bead by sewra t-shirt. Now you can be one of the first to rock
Fly Gurl Chica!! She comes in 3 different styles (from l to r):
*Chica in the star ****************** Chica full body
****************** Chica's waist
The t's are m/os long sleeve (which means they are fitted, and fit up to size
6, 36c cup) and come in 4 colors: heather grey, banana yellow, lavender and
blue. Take your pick of which style and color you want! $20
Sewra's Must Have Favorite Things for the Holidays!!!!
* Lotus of the Nile:Nubian Natural Hair Care Salon - If you have natural hair, you must make it your business to see Debra.
I'm constantly stopped and asked who does my hair. Debra is the only one I let
come close to my head with scissors! She shapes my curly fro ohh sooo well!!
And she gives the BEST scalp massage!! Debra offers natural hair care, deep conditioning,
lock styling and steaming. She's one of the most attentive beauticians that I
know! 2309 Adam Clayton Powell Blvd. Suite 1A * Bet 135th and 136th
Street Harlem, NY 10030 * 212.862.6435
* Essence Rare - My official scent is
Egyptian Musk...has been since high school. And the ONLY person I buy my oil
from is Kalimah of Essence Rare. Her oils don't cause me to break out on my
neck, because she doesn't cut it. She also makes the most luxurious soaps! I
can shave my underarms using the lather from her soap! She has all these
different varieties and none of them are made with anything artificial. Plus
they last a long time! www.essencerare.com
* Purest Naturals - There's nothing I love
more than having smooth, baby soft skin that smells good AND is still
moisturized by the end of the day. Purest Naturals helps me accomplish all of
that! Esther, who make Purest Natural, has some wonderful scents...my favorite
being Strong Roots and Nubian Nectar. She makes body oils, hair oils, bath
salts, lotions, and herbs for steaming. She's also an esthetician, and does
facials out of her home in Harlem. Her oils are light and do not contain corn
oil or beeswax. Whenever I see her, I buy in BULK! www.purestnaturals.com *
thepurest@chemist.com * 917.701.5910
* Herb n' Life - My other FAVORITE natural
hair and body care is Herb 'n Life. Maiya has created the most divine lotions
and butters! I use her body lotions in my hair! That's how light, yet
nourishing it is. The lotions are a daily hairdress for me. They smell sooooo
clean! And her butters are scrumptious! When I buy them as gifts, people love
them! She has all natural Castile shampoo, body butters, coconut hemp hair
butter, oil, and lotion (my favorite being Shine 2 and Angel). You can find
Maiya's products on the 2nd floor at Lifetyme in the Village. Email her for
other locations around New York, Los Angeles and Florida. Also look out for a
link to her upcoming website on my links page. Maiya Tafari *

* Harriet's Alter Ego - There's only one place in
NYC to get your funky fix, and that's Harriet's Alter Ego, Downtown Bklyn. It's
the ultimate "think outside the box" shop. Everything in there is not
my style, but I still love going in there! And the ladies in there are very
nice. Just seeing them in all their funky glama makes you want to push your
style up a level...or two! www.harrietsalterego.com * 191 Flatbush
Ave, Brooklyn, NY * 718.783.2074
* House of Mesha - Does Harriet's sound
appealing, but you just happen to be in Denver? Well then you need to stop by
House of Mesha! There you'll find creative Guru Holly-Kai creating her many one
of a kind deconstructive pieces, adding much flavor to rocky mountain Denver!
The vibe is hot, the shop is hot, and the designs are hot. Plus they carry
