Name: Servanté

Nickname: Ser, or Vanté

Age: 35

Birth City: Chicago

Ethnic background/Where are your parents from?/ Where are your grandparents from? I’m African American with both parents born here in the states. My grandparents were also African American, all born in southern parts of the states, like Arkansas.

Where do you live now: Houston

When did you first begin to love fashion?: Growing up my older cousin, Greg always had the dopest sneakers and outfits. Whatever he wore, I wanted it. I would borrow his clothes to wear on special days at school and I felt so fly! I believe this was when I first started to love fashion, and feel passionate about expressing myself through it.

Celebrity Crush: Kelly Rowland and Micheal B Jordan 🙂

Favorite song at the moment: “Taboo” by Sevyn Streeter

What is your favorite way to wear color? I love mixing patterns and prints. However, color blocking is also fun. Typically I bring in the color with my sneakers and work from there.

How does infusing color into your wardrobe make you feel? Daring! Wearing things that most guys may stir away from is exciting. I love complimenting my skin tone/ complexion with pops of color.

What are you working on? Right now my focus is growing my platform on social, and creating more content that makes sense to my business goals. I’m also releasing a men’s skincare line (@ser.skn) that I can’t wait to share with the world.

Beauty Disclaimer

I’m the creator of Beauty Disclaimer. I use #BeautyDisclaimer on my social posts to conspicuously disclose if I’m wearing makeup, if an image was edited and even if I’m wearing hair extensions. I never want anyone to feel less beautiful because of anything they see on my platforms. I’m all about authenticity, transparency and and helping others feel connected in our shared human experiences.

Soooo… why does is seem like your favorite online people don’t want you to know how they achieved a beauty look or what went in to creating something? Yes there are business secrets worth keeping but so much of it is basic. By basic I mean, a model posed “this way” to achieve a certain look. This make up was used to create a “no make up look”. This was the set or “circumstances” that made this campaign come to life.

The truth is, even effortless things, take effort. It could be on the back end or front end of something but it all takes thought. You can look forward to more insight on how all of this comes to life on AuthenticallyB.com.

Infusing color into my wardrobe automatically boosts my mood. It makes me feel both happy and powerful.

I’m currently working on my next grade promotion (I’m a tender analyst in an oil and gas company by day.) I’m also aspired to be a lot more consistent on my socials, so I could continue growing my community. And most importantly, I’m working on getting strong mentally and physically. I have started working out again and incorporating yoga and meditation in my daily practices. I really hope to follow through with it this year.

1st Birthday Party for Baby Girl

She’s finally 1! To be born in 2020 sounds wild to me but baby girl won’t know the difference until she’s much older and we share with her the history that was made during the year of her birth.

We had a small covid friendly birthday with grand parents and very close friends. It was small, low stress and just how I want all future parties to be for our family.

I had some great help putting it together! Shay Moné is always a great eye and helped with inspo and Tailored Moments with set up and execution! I was supposed to just bring food, the cake and plates but in true Brandy form, I got the wrong colors. I got a hot pink cake and orange plates. I just remembered the brightest colors while I was looking for inspiration and that’s what I got. Ha ha! Shay helped bring everything together with her ability to make anything work!

Despite that little hiccup, the party was a success and I wouldn’t have had it any other way!

Enjoy Color Bees!
