YVONNE&YVETTETIQUETTE: March 2015
http://www.yvonneandyvettetiquette.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 31, 2015. THINK BEFORE YOU YELP By Yvonne. 8220;What does “Yelp” mean? 8221; asked a friend whose first language is French. 8220;It’s what little dogs do to get attention,” I explained. And then I yelped a few times to demonstrate to her how annoying it is. And so are many comments on Yelp. They are also mean, spiteful and are the handiwork of people with not much going on in their lives. Except to try and gain some kind of voice by trashing establishments and the people who work in them.

Tuesday, April 28, 2015. TO CLAP OR NOT TO CLAP, PART II BY YVONNE. I wrote a post on applause. From the point of view of an audience member. This week, a dancer is gives his thoughts on the subject. I promised him that I wouldn’t reveal his name. All I can divulge is that he’s one of the finest dancers in the world and has been a principal dancer at two of the leading ballet companies in the world. Do you think any time is the right time for applause? Has clapping ever affected your performance? That ni...

YVONNE&YVETTETIQUETTE: October 2014

Wednesday, October 15, 2014. IS THIS YOUR MOTHER? DON’T ASK. By Yvonne. Oftentimes, people have the need to assume who’s who in the family when they meet people they don't know. A common faux pas is when an older man is with a younger woman and someone asks, “Is this your daughter? That's me on the left, and my daughter on the right. The other night I was at a Knicks game with my twin, Yvette (Did you see us on the Jumbotron? Listen to me, mother knows best. Links to this post. Wednesday, October 8, 2014.

The Feminine Black Woman: Why Dresses Are Better Than Pants
http://femmegirl2379.blogspot.com/2013/09/why-dresses-are-better-than-pants.html
The Feminine Black Woman. Friday, 20 September 2013. Why Dresses Are Better Than Pants. Unless you're this tall and skinny, you will never look like. This in a pair of jeans. No normal person can achieve this look which is. Quite baffling considering how much we have bought into the myth that jeans. Look great on everyone smh. 1 Dresses and skirts look better on a woman's body. Wearing a good dress will instantly feminise ones appearance. Yes I know Zoe looks great in both pics, but don't forget that.

Your Africa Is Showing: November 2012
http://yourafricaisshowing.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Your Africa Is Showing. Saturday, November 24, 2012. Back to Blue Black Pompadour Up-do. You know what they say, once you go blue black. You always go back, lol. It seems every fall, I'm in the mood for Blue Black. I get over what ever lighter color I had been trying for the spring summer season and I feel the urge to go back to dark shiny hair. For all of my bright vibrant hair color, I've pretty much always used Manic Panic, this time using Manic Panic Amplified in Shocking Blue. For the Holiday, I dec...

You'll notice a sea of beautiful posts from SP and this one little post. So tell me, which natural hair style/technique have you yet to master? Links to this post. Friday, December 14, 2012. To ge...

The Feminine Black Woman: My Issue With Colourism/Shadism
http://femmegirl2379.blogspot.com/2012/10/my-issue-with-colourismshadism.html
The Feminine Black Woman. Monday, 22 October 2012. My Issue With Colourism/Shadism. Refers to a form of prejudice or discrimination in which human beings of the same-race. Are treated differently based on the social meanings attached to skin colour. In this photo Bollywood film star Aiswarya Rai who is fair skin, appears to be of a dusky complexion (in India dusky is medium tone). I think she looks beautiful here. Typical dark skin Indian girl. We can go way back into history and try to discover why colo...

http://femmegirl2379.blogspot.com/2012/09/whats-wrong-with-social-climbing.html
The Feminine Black Woman. Friday, 7 September 2012. What's Wrong With Social Climbing? Someone who seeks advancement to a higher social class, esp by obsequious behaviour. So what exactly is social climbing and why are social climbers met with so much judgement and contempt. From the definition of Social Climber, you will by now have a clear idea what social climbing is, but why is social climbing, something that is very natural to human nature, considered a bad thing? So even if she didn't marry Prince ...
