Explain your personal style. My personal style is a mix of urban chic, classic, & eclectic. I dress according to how I'm feeling at the moment. I really don't believe in rules when it comes to style.
Style Icons? Diana Ross, Cher, Iman.



Have you ever struggled with self-identity issues because of your complexion? If so what are some things you did to accept yourself for who you are and love yourself? I am lucky to have been brought up in a family where being dark-skinned was never an issue. My Mom's side are all darker than me, whereas on my Dad's side, there is a Black/Hispanic mix; some are extremely fair skin and light colored eyes, as well as dark-skinned with coarse hair and dark brown eyes. From both sides there was never a moment where my complexion was an issue. I was taught to be comfortable in my own skin and embrace all of my physical features.

Do you have any advice for other dark-skinned women that are struggling with accepting themselves because of the color of their skin? My advice for other dark-skinned women would be to look in the mirror long and hard and actually see your outer beauty and love what you see. Love your cocoa complexion and the beauty that comes with our skin tone. Chocolate skin is beautiful!!!
What do you like most about being dark-skinned? What I like most about being dark-skinned is that there is absolutely no color clothing that will not look good on us. From muted tones, to darks like navy and burgundy, to neons and pastels, we can wear it ALL! Many lighter complexions have to stay away from some colors because it makes them either look "washed out" or it just looks "off" against their skin. We never have to worry about that. Plums, blues, yellows, and greens, we can wear it all! Now what's better than that? LOL.

♥ Osa is definitely a chocolate girl full of style and confidence! Thank you so much Osa for participating in the series! Don't forget to check out Osa's blog Chic Pantry, "like" her Facebook Page: Chic Pantry Blog, and follow her on Twitter: @Chicpantry and Instagram:ChicPantry
