Doug E Fresh Concert Fun + Mahogany Closet Mondapys Fashion Link U


If you follow me on Instagram then you know that Thursday I went to see Doug E Fresh in concert. The show was at a night club/lougne in Oakland, CA called Venue and was in celebration of the
rapper Mistah F.A.B.'s birthday. So when my big sis Kim called me and told me she was covering the event for you show The Kim Caldwell Show and asked me if I wanted to go, I said heck yes!! :-) The concert was AMAZING!!! The event was all in homage to old skool Hip Hop. Many people dressed up in late '80's, early '90's street wear, including Mistah F.A.B. who donned a Fila sweatsuit and Kangol hat (I can't remember the last time I've seen a Fila sweatsuit). There was lots of Adidas, over sized gold chains and bright colors. Hip Hop Tv was on the scene covering the event and like I mentioned earlier Doug E Fresh put on a fabulous show. He rapped, he danced (doing the original "dougie" seeing as the songs and dance style was named after him ) and of course he beatboxed. It was a pretty small venue which standing room so we made our toward the stage right before the performance started and had the perfect location for the show right in the front. After the concert was over we got a chance to go back stage and talk with and meet Doug E Fresh. He was super sweet and kind. All and all it was just a great night.

Black and White Stripe Faux Fur Yasssss!!!!! (The hunt for the perfect faux fur) + Mahogany Closet Mondays Fashion Link Up!!!!


I have been wanting an amazing faux fur for a long time. But it has not been easy finding the perfect faux fur. I live in California so they idea of paying $200 - $300 for a faux fur that I may only be able to wear a couple times has been a hard pill to swallow. And many of  the cheaper ones are just to thin and look cheap and not luxurious at all. So I was so excited to walk into Forever 21 and find that they were having a 50% OFF sale on many of their furs and outerwear. This gorgeous baby was originally $80 (which was already a pretty good deal) and I got it for just $40! Suffice to say, I was so excited. I picked this lovely coat up before Christmas, but I happened to go into Forever 21 the other day to return a dress and saw that they are still having the 50% OFF sale and actually have even more selections now! Plus they were offering buy 1 get one free on all of there clearance items. So many clearance items were marked down from anywhere from $14.99 to $1.99 and you get buy one and that price and still get one free!!! Ummm, so I probably went a little crazy (story of my shopping life lol) but I just couldn't pass on the great deals. So if you haven't been to Forever 21 lately, you got to at least check it out.
