Indian For A Day

As I mentioned in my previous post, I attended an Indian wedding reception for my bestfriends cousin. It was so great to dress up and feel a apart of their tradition. I cant wait until my BFF gets married so we can plan her fabulous Indian wedding.

Here are some Makeup pics I snapped while getting ready.


And here are some pics of all the ladies and bride (in dark green and lots of gold).

Hope everyone is having a great work week thus far. xoxo

I hope everyone is having an awesome weekend. Today is my relaxing day but I wanted to share these pics with you I took Thursday.

Yesterday I attended an Indian wedding reception and I truly enjoyed myself. I have some nice pics to share with you soon, lets just say...I was Indian for a Day. :-)

Wearing my favorite VS top, Express sequin shorts, vintage Juliana brooches & bracelet, Herve Leger handbag and BCBG slingbacks

The Knot


Soon these Dolce Vita's will be in the back of the closet...till then let me enjoy them while the weather is still right. Oh...as with most linen pants being so long...I decided to tie mines up at the end with a knot...give it a try. By the way I hope everyone is having a great week thus far.

Garden Festival

Thought I would share a few pics with you from the Garden Festival is past Saturday. It's not fashion but hey nature is beautiful. Enjoy!

Juliana Light

I'm watching Fashion's Night Out on QVC. Currently K-Dash by the Kardashians is on. I haven't seen nothing really eye catching for my taste.



I'll be joining my parents for breakfast tomorrow and then going to a garden festival with my mother. I hope everyone finds something interesting to do and have a safe weekend at it!!!

Fallin Leaves



Hello everyone... I hope you've been having a great start to the work week. Any plans for Labor Day? Please do share...

We all know all shades of purple are back in for the Fall and when I saw this brightly colored vintage top it was literally screaming FALL...maybe it was because it has a design of leaves all over it. What a coincidence!

Wearing 7 For All Mankind jeans, ABS Allen Schwartz slingback platforms, vintage clutch & earrings, MAC lippie in Push-Up Plum...great shade for the Fall

I'm excited to share with you the very first commercial I did makeup for a few months back with Untamed Industries and MMA fighter Antwain Britt. Let me know what you think.

Have a fabulous weekend everyone.

"Slow Down" on BET's 106 and Park

In May my BFF and I had the amazing experience to be apart of the David Banner and 9th Wonder Music Video for 'Slow Down' featuring songtress, Heather Victoria. The video was directed and videographed by Shomi and his team at Illusive Media.

Make up for the video was done by Dhalia Rodriguez Edwards (me), Styling by my BFF Mikasa La'Charles, and hair by Natasha Guynn.

A video shoot with David Banner is guaranteed to be amazing and this one most definitely was. From Banner's jokes to demand for attention there was never a dull moment on set. Banner and 9th Wonder are not only talented artists but also amazing people...that actually care about the prosperity of others. IMAGINE THAT!!! With Banner's generous donations to youth programs and 9th's academic career as a professor at UNC at Chapel Hill; these guys set new standards for being MORE than just a good music artist!

The video premiered to the world yesterday on BET's 106. Did you see it? If so...let me know what you think.

Rays of Sun



The weather was beautiful today...the sun was out but not scorching hot. Its a pure sign that summer is vastly dieing down. Well off to plan my kids back to school shopping for tomorrow...can't believe my little boy is starting preschool. By the way...I can't get enough of this new haircut, I'm loving it!!

Also...Thank you to all my new and previous readers for your support. Check out Get It Girl Style to read a little intro on MzFashionCloset.

Painting The Town Leopard

Happy Monday! A few weeks ago I was booked to do makeup for an aspiring artist but very well known in Virginia named Tisha Howard. This was her first music video for her single "You Are"...every young lady can relate to this song. I've added the info to the right column under Make-Up Features" and I'll be sure to upload the video once its released, so check back soon.



Enjoy your work week and be sure to Shop Dhalia's Closet. I'll be updating its contents this weekend. xoxo

A New Me

Hello there...sorry for the lack of post. I've been dealing with a lot.

I decided to try a new look for the upcoming fall...bangs and a dark brown color. I think I may go darker sometime in October. After looking at the Dash sisters for sooo long I thought it was time to try something dark and bold. So...what do you think?

Worth The Wait






I visited the most adorable consignment boutique today...Worth The Wait. Tried on a pair of patent leather Christian Louboutin pumps that were a little to big....but the price was perfect. Whoever wears a size 40/10 US is a lucky lady...so if you're in the area hurry along and check them out.
