Wow, I have gotten so much positive feedback about my blog post Funkidivagirl: A 4 Real Housewife. It seems that many women can relate to my story and would like to tell their story as well. I’m excited for Funkidivagirl.com to be a platform for women to express themselves!

Meet Latoicha Givens. You may know Latoicha as the woman behind Luxetips, a very popular fashion and beauty blog. Did you know that she is also a lawyer, owns her own business and writes IP Law 101, her Intellectual Property Law blog? She does all this while still putting her family first; Latoicha is a 4 Real Housewife!

Why is Latoicha a 4 Real Housewife? In her own words:

What about you? Are you a 4 Real Housewife?

…..smart, educated, fun, interesting, fascinating, creative, savvy, strong, funki women who understand the importance of making family and home life a priority and who work hard to make their lives flexible enough to make this a reality. I believe that this definition is inclusive of a broad spectrum of women: women who don’t work, work at home, own their own businesses, work outside the home part-time, flex-time, or anytime that family life allows. This housewife understands the importance of being available for her husband, children, friends and community but also that she needs to give equal priority to taking care of herself physically, emotionally and doing things that nurture her soul. She’s no Sandra Dee wimp, she’s fierce!

If that sounds like you, here’s your chance to tell everyone “I’m a 4 Real Housewife!” You can read the submission guidelines here. It’s fun and easy–promise!
