Hold onto your seats ladies (and gents), those southern belles from the ATL are back to cook up more exciting drama than a pot of Dooky Chase’s gumbo! I’ve been waiting all year to see the Real Housewives of Atlanta, and after enjoying the Real Housewives of New Jersey’s blast-of-a-season, I’m sure tour favorite Georgia peaches will not disappoint.

Joining the housewives is none other than singer and Grammy Award-winning songwriter, Kandi Burruss. We’re sure this chocolate diva will be a welcomed addition (sorry DeShawn) to the show. And who couldn’t forget the feisty Nene, prima donna Sheree, the driven Lisa, and flirtatious Kim. Tune in to Bravo on Thursday, July 30 at 10 PM ET/PT.

Stay tuned for exclusives of the Real Housewives of Atlanta on the Chocolate Fashion Blog!

Halle Berry’s goddess gown…

Beyonce gives us the skinny…

Lucy Liu is anything but incognito in this pretty frock…

White House chief domestic policy adviser Melody Barnes tied the knot with Marland Buckner, Jr., Saturday June 13 wearing a beautiful fitted gown by Amsale. The ivory hued garment with rhinestone detailing, which flared below the knee was a perfect complement to Barnes’ slender frame. Ethiopian designer Amsale Aberra started designing wedding gowns when she needed one for her wedding to film executive Neil Brown more than 25 years ago. Unable to find a simple, refined gown to her liking, Amsale started what is now known as the Amsale Collection. Halle Berry, Salma Hayek, and Lucy Liu are fans.

Nothing like a good piece of good eye candy. Atlanta’s musical princess Ciara who’s latest album “Fantasy Ride” has been slowly heating up the charts puts on a pretty face in the latest issue of Rap Up magazine. There is no doubt CiCi is a beauty. She could give a few models a run(way) for their money. Always one to test the boundaries of fashion, Ciara rarely disappoints. And if she does we pretend not to notice.
