Welcome to my blog, Uptown Maven. I hope you have read and enjoyed some, if not all, of my posts. I blog about to what I am most passionate. Sometimes I write about fashion and cooking. Other times, I spew out whatever is swirling around in my head, trying to make sense of it all myself. I hope you discover something new and feel closer to me with every post you stumble upon.
