hi, i’m tashira.

welcome to politics & fashion, a lifestyle blog i founded in 2011. at the time, i was fighting the narrative that art and fashion had no place in social justice. my more “political” peers were trying to convince me that my life-long love with fashion as art was frivolous. through my journey, i realized my love for my people and a bomb red lipstick weren’t mutually exclusive. i can be fly and woke. i can love lipstick and liberation.

politics & fashion has matured into a celebration of womanhood with a focus on style and self-care. as a breast cancer survivor, i believe one of my assignments in life is to encourage others seeking more purpose in life. for this reason, i created the 21 day happiness project with lots of resources that can be found on the blog.

i hope you enjoy this space as much as i enjoy creating it.
