You are a breath of fresh air for us "ladies of a certain age". Your content is always on point with a great mix of classics and current styles to keep us stylish as we age gracefully. Love your voice and spirit!
Hi Shakura, I know you’ve had some challenges sharing your weight loss journey on the channel and I’m very happy for you. For those of us on the same journey, seeing what you wear in a week during those too big/ too small challenges would actually be helpful, so thank you for this video. I’ve created a bit of a uniform for myself, but I’m now on the verge of things being too baggy and having to size down and/or tailor items. I like simple outfits, so never feel like yours are too simple to show. Oh, and greetings from St.Kitts!!
My kids grandmother took them skiing every year when they were younger, buying new ski clothes every year for a single mom was a stretch, but I'm so glad I did it ,my daughter started a black ski club in our family, and its a wonderful sight to see.
I love that! That’s a great idea to start a black ski club.😍 🙌🏾 Skiing is one of my favorite yearly activities! It’s an expensive hobby though. In Europe where I’m from, Austria, France, Italy and Switzerland are very popular ski areas. Our favorite country is Austria. 😊 I learned how to ski when I was 40! It was scary at first, but now I love it! My husband and our kids have been skiing since they were little. 🫶🏾
These are the best outfits because they are relatable for everyday,but still fabulous. Not every putfit on the internet needs to be OTT. We love inspo on how to wear the clothes we have!!❤🙌🏾🙌🏾
" There is nothing new under the sun"-Eccl 1:9 🙏🏾💐😀💜 Personal style aesthetic and fashion are what an individual puts value to. Kura. No explanation needed. What you wear can inspire others. (We won't know unless you tell us lol 😆)
As a Canadian, the coat is definitely the outfit in winter. And when it gets really cold, like this weekend, even that doesn't matter as long as it keeps you warm 🥶😂😂❤❤
You never disappoint with your videos. I watch every post/video you create. That scarf fur coat is just mesmerizing and on my wishlist. So happy for your progress with your physical and mental health. I lost my king last year but the memories I have will forever pull me through this time of year and everyday. Merry Christmas Kura ❤.
"Ladies take note. Husbands belong in the luxury store with their credit card in hand." 😆😂😆😂 #NothingButFacts The Christmas windows at Bloomingdale's was my favorite (the pink room with the silver open-toe silver heels was perfection) and I loved all the brown "fur" coat selections. Lovely as always, Kura. Lovely as always.
A long time ago, my late husband used to drive us around Dyker Heights to check out the Xmas lights. So, your video brought me some great memories. Thank you. Happy holidays to you, Shakura!
Merry Christmas….. this was absolutely wonderful. I so enjoyed it. My husband is having surgery on December 24th. So Christmas isn’t so Christmassy, and this made me so happy. I enjoyed the music, the rain, the decorations, your presentation bought tears to my eyes. Keep doing what you do. You do it so well dear heart. You never know whose heart you may be touching… thank you! Stay blessed.
You are our girl we love you and adore your programs thank you for your consistent high quality content I have watched you since 2020 keep doing you It Works💐
Kura your functional outfit was very chic! I don't look for you to be extra or over the top when I watch your channel. I truly appreciate your realness.
I have a great seamstress here on Long Island. She is a wizard and reasonably priced. I lost about 20 lbs some years ago and she saved me so much money by not having to replace some of my favorite pieces!
Hi Kura I just ordered the brown faux fur jacket from Bloomingdales. I got it in an XL, hope it fits these chunky arms. But when I saw it, I was like yes!!! Thank you for being an inspiration and have a wonderful holiday.
Kura, I discovered you this year, and you’ve been the best part of my Sundays. I appreciate you so much!! Love your videos! Keep up the amazing work!! Thank you!!!! Here’s to a fabulous 2025! 🥂
Love your content! I would love to see the broadway show “Death Becomes Her.” My daughter and I saw Megan Hilty (Madeline) at the 2015 Junior Theater Festival, and it was amazing having her perform for and encourage the theater kids. One young lady won the opportunity to sing a duet with her from Wicked, and she held her hand telling her they’d get through it together, just like Idina Menzel did - the seasoned Elphaba welcoming the newly cast Glinda. She was so warm, and funny, as she sang “Alto’s Lament,” and all the altos in the room, including, my daughter, erupted laughing, feeling that someone finally understands them.
Hi Kira, I truly appreciate your presence and style. Your content is stellar in my opinion. I learn something each time you post whether it’s regarding fashion, lifestyle, or travel ( esp NYC highlights). Kudos to your supportive husband for being here for you and us👏🏽. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours, Kura. God bless you in the coming year. You ARE my Sunday morning routine and I look forward to your videos every week. Keep up the good work. PS: Before buying those jeans in a size down, maybe consider just having them altered. 👍
Congrats on the weight loss goals mama. I know you said you’re still not where you want to be but bask in and celebrate what you have accomplished (I’m a recovering perfectionist so I get it). You look great from where I sit! Those Christmas stockings were amazing!! I saw black Santa’s for the first time at JC Penny’s.😮 Girl, I was never in sneakers until they became life!🥰 I wore them for the first time before shutdown with a sequins Tracee Ellis Ross dress for the theatre and it was a HIT! Can’t turn back now 🤣🤣
I appreciate the content of your creative work! What an enjoyable, insightful, elegant and inspiring journey you have taken us on this year. Thank you for all the fashion and lifestyle moments you share. Can't wait to see what you have for us in 2025!
Merry Christmas Kura! I love the functional segments you've been sharing with the cute coats. Add it to your video line up and name it F&F (Functional but Fabulous)! Also, you and Monroe Steele are the best New York City tour guide influencers. I look forward to visiting the places you have highlighted. Thank you!
A bit of advice,if I may.Maybe not focus on the future so much.Work on your accomplishments for that day and give it your all and by doing that your future accomplishment will come.One day at a time,we're not promised tomorrow, enjoy what you accomplished for today ❤
THANK YOU FOR THIS REMINDER!😩☺️❤️ I’m such an over achiever that I forget to celebrate my day to day wins. This year I will practice one day at a rime. I APPRECIATE YOU!❤️❤️
I like how you added the cardigan on top of your trench for another layer. I wanted to visit the American Dream mall a couple years ago when I had a client in New Jersey. I didn’t get to go on my last work trip up there but would like to go back and visit the mall.😊
I love your content and can’t believe you do it all yourself. I look forward to you every week. Thanks for what you do and for not being like everyone else. Merry Christmas
Hey Shakura! The way I hollered when you described hubby rolling down the mountain 🤣🤣🤣 I have been a few times and rolling was my plan when I ended up on a black hill by mistake. 😂 Sticking to the bunny. Did not know there was a ski mall in NJ. Definitely going to try it. If my knees will let me 🙄 🏂✊🏾✌🏽❤️❤
Loving all the vlogs my fav creators (including you) are sharing featuring the NYC Holiday Spirit! Love your errand looks. I have the same silver Jordans! Thank you for reminding us to just start jo matter where we are in our journey! ❤❤. You really did that this year. You look great and are so inspiring! Wishing a very Joyous and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas and thanks for the fabulous content! I appreciate your outfits...they are stylish and realistic. We're not all running around the city in heels and an Hermes bag, 🤣
Job well done. I joined your channel at least 2 years ago but watched more this year than. I clearly understand the weight lost journey and chile the clothes that are too big. Oh my a lot of money spent because I love fashion. As I replace pieces I am more mindful of my purchases. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and yours. 🙏🏿🎄
Girl, you look very nice dressed down. I live in Chicago, and I dress in cords, a cute coat and sweaters most days. Nothing wrong with your looks. Keep up the good work young lady. Oh I love wearing my fur coat with jeans. Merry Xmas
Happy New Year!! I love your cover of the DREAM Mall, It is so good I absolutely love this mall. Girl, keep up the excellent work with your health. You look great!

I love seeing your "functional" outfits. The coat can make the outfit. So can the shoes. You wear the clothes so well.
Never hesitate to show your outfits. Some of us just wear comfortable outfits and need ideas for those too.
My kids grandmother took them skiing every year when they were younger, buying new ski clothes every year for a single mom was a stretch, but I'm so glad I did it ,my daughter started a black ski club in our family, and its a wonderful sight to see.

Thank you for the advice. As someone who self sabotages and stays in my head, your advice spoke to me. Congrats on your health journey!
Progress over perfection is definitely a WORD…and I remember the situation with the Dior handbag. Happy Holidays ❤
