Black History Month Inspired by Josephine Baker. Jody Watley Evolving Style.

I've had so many memorable looks and style benchmarks thus far in my career. I've never been afraid to try new styles and looks - always a chameleon. On my birthday a mini hair retrospective was featured here: HuffPostBeauty

With that in mind I thought I'd highlight some of my own favorite looks and moments thus far starting with channeling the legendary Josephine Baker  and classic 20's glam with my spin on it for Essence Magazine and a Tourbook in 1989.

Classic Style: African American Young Lady




Despite the difficulties and inequality of the time, many vintage photo's of African American Blacks seem to always convey not only a sense of style, but inner strength and poise as well.
