 #LeahVDaily

#LeahVDaily is a fashion movement that began on Instagram.

It encompasses all the different facets of my style and ideas.

You'll see how I rock street style, glam, Yonce/Gaga hybrid inspos, paired with my fave quotes and sayings as well as some cool videos.     

You get a front row seat to my style journey on this page.

I just copped the new memoir "Hunger" by @roxanegay74 and I cannot wait to dig the fuck in. I've never heard of her until I was listening to NPR. She told a story about being dehumanized every time she rides a plane because of her weight. How people have taken food out of her shopping-cart because of her weight. And how the size of her body was a constant issue growing up. I've dealt with the same shameful instances. I am not the numbers on the scale. And neither is she! She's fat, black, and doesn't fit society's conventional standards of beauty, but she's a best-selling novelist. Something I aspire to be one day. I almost cried when I saw her photo. All my life, I thought I could never, ever be truthful through my writing. I could never be on The NY Times because the color of my skin and because the fat on my body. And because of that, I stopped writing for 5 long years. I hadn't thought it was possible for someone like me. What I didn't know was that Allah had other plans for me... Visibility! Our girls and boys need to see someone like them on billboards, on magazine covers, on best seller's lists. Getting awards and speaking out and being fierce. If only I had a Roxane Gay growing up. But, it's all good. I see you now girl. I see you now. And that's all that matters. 📸 @remy_me #leahvdaily #detroitblogger #psootd #hijabi #plussize #blackgirls #instafashion #bodypositive #bgki #psfashion #effyourbeautystandards #lablogger #pizzasisters4lyfe #blackgirlswhoblog #style #fashionbombdaily #fashion #londonblogger #hunger #newyorkblogger #fatshion #blackandmuslim #detroitartist #blackgirlmagic #muslimgirl #memoirs #art #humanart #essaywriting

I'm back in Detroit. (Some ppl thought I moved. Someone told me rent in LA was in the 2000s and I said how, Sway 🤔) Anywho, someone asked: Leah V what's your next move? It was hard to answer because although this trip reenergized me, it also left me wondering what IS next for me... When I was younger, I used to have all these timelines on when shit should get done. Marriage ✔️ Career ✔️ Travel ✔️Own a business ✔️ Possibly pop out a kid ✔️ Own a home ✔️ Most of these were goals I had as a married woman and all had to be achieved by 25. But then life gave me the Birdman Handrub and was like nah playa. Here I am about to be 30 in a few weeks. I'm not even sure what I want for dinner tonight, let alone what my life will be like in the next five years, if I live that long. I mean, I have an idea, but no clear way to get there. I would love to get my memoir published that I just freakin' finished!!! I want to travel on someone else's dime. And eat good food and be in the company of cool people. I want to continue my work as a fat, Muslim feminist and activist. Redirect some narratives. No biggies. 😂😂😂 📸 @miasatu #leahvdaily #detroitblogger #psootd #rainbowstyle #plussize #blackgirls #streetstyle #instafashion #bodypositive #bgki #psfashion #effyourbeautystandards #lablogger #pizzasisters4lyfe #blackgirlswhoblog #style #fashionbombdaily #londonblogger #newyorkblogger #fatshion #chicagoblogger #blackandmuslim #detroitartist #blackgirlmagic #muslimgirl #summer #ootd #rainbowstyle #maxxinista

Sometimes you just gotta step onto that ledge. Inch along that thin piece of concrete, right beneath you're feet pieces of rock break off and tumble to the ground below. You're afraid. Heart beating. Unsure about why you're even standing there. You think that you'd be much safer inside, along with the others. The ones who don't reach or encourage others to... Safe is dull. Safe is being content. Safe is never moving from that one comfortable spot in life. Do y'all know how scary I am? People assume that I just do stuff with ease. No hunny. I'm the scariest person you'll ever meet. But one thing I do understand is growth, forward movement. I've seen ppl have talent, a voice, a this and that and they surround themselves with others who are stagnant and fail. I've seen people crash, fake the funk for the gram, and pretend happiness. I'm not the one. It's as real as it comes this way. Take it or leave it. Either way, I'm moving up only. And, I don't know about y'all but I'm trying to build something strong, something durable. I'm trying to build an empire. #leahvdaily #detroitblogger #psootd #denim #venicebeach #turbanista #plussize #blackgirls #streetstyle #streetfashion #instafashion #bodypositive #bgki #psfashion #effyourbeautystandards #lablogger #pizzasisters4lyfe #ootd #blackgirlswhoblog #style #fashionbombdaily #fatshion #londonblogger #berlinblogger #f21xme #muslimgirl #fatshion #americanmuslim #california #losangelesphotographer

Literally had a full day of shoots and videos. As I get older, I find myself getting fatigued easily. Plus this LA sun is no joke! There was a certain point where I was like maybe I'm not cut out for this fast paced lifestyle. Maybe I'm too old to be running around LA trying to catch a break. A dream. Then I thought about all the shit I had to go through just to be sitting exactly where I am. I have an opportunity to make it work. To do the damn thang. So that's what I did. I hydrated. I sat down when I got tired. I ate. And kept it moving. Plus, I got to work with some amazing people who told me to keep it pushing because I'd flown too far to stop and they gave me all types of life just by their sheer energy. Saturday will be the same hustle and bustle as today. I'm resting up for now, but I'll be ready again tomorrow. I didn't come to play with LA 💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽 📸 @_the_b_word_ #leahvdaily #detroitblogger #psootd #rainbowstyle #hijabi #plussize #blackgirls #streetstyle #instafashion #bodypositive #bgki #psfashion #effyourbeautystandards #lablogger #pizzasisters4lyfe #blackgirlswhoblog #style #fashionbombdaily #fashion #londonblogger #floral #newyorkblogger #fatshion #chicagoblogger #blackandmuslim #detroitartist #blackgirlmagic #muslimgirl #lablogger
