About Me

A few years ago I had, what I thought was a brilliant idea to start a website to discuss pregnancy, motherhood, beauty, style and all things fabulous- but from a black woman’s perspective. There was nothing wrong with what was out there but I didn’t feel these publications spoke to me. I wanted to see the celebrity women I favored, I wanted to see children in ads, that were in the likeness of my children. The idea was good. Well at least a few people thought so because we started Sunkissed Mommy-an online lifestyle community that caters to all women of color that are mothers. It’s going well over there but I still felt a huge connection to the Mom Noir brand. A decision had to be made as to what to do with it. I blog HERE, about my family life and I write for SKM. So I decided to still blog here on Mom Noir and be the voice of glamorousness for us black mothers.

This isn’t a mommy blog-yes I’m a mom but that isn’t the purpose of the site. On any given day, this blog could be a decor, food or fashion blog. I write about a plethora of things so if I had to classify it, I would say Mom Noir is a lifestyle. You could be single and childless and still find something here to relate to.  As I progress through this journey called life, I am sharing random tidbits with you, one stylish item at a time! On here you can expect to find the latest in fab beauty products (tested by yours truly), food, decor, travel and kiddie style, along with personal stories about our semi-sane household. I have four kids with our fifth (and last-seriously) due around Thanksgiving.  I like to consider myself a queen of all trades (master of none) because I cook (I also own a restaurant with my mom, Calypso), garden, interior design -you know, the essentials. Everything you’ll see on here, I have or plan on getting. I wouldn’t post anything on here that I wouldn’t try. It is my goal to share REAL experiences with you, not something that was just pitched to me in an email. Last but not least, I plan to share with you inspirational thoughts and quotes that help me get through the day-with the hope of encouraging or motivating you!

So wait no further, go forth and get your daily dose of Mom Noir today! If you haven’t yet signed up for our newsletter (it pretty much goes out when I have big news, which isn’t quite often) Sign Up Here to get on board!
