My Mother, My Inspiration, at Any Age. The wisdom of Eartha Kitt.
When you read and learn about the wisdom of Eartha Kitt, you can see why my mother was, and still is, my inspiration. At any age. Age isn’t something we really think about until we start to do it. When we’re little, we yearn to be ‘grown up’, and then, when we get there, […]

The legacy we leave – Eartha Kitt’s daughter reflects on her mother’s teaching.
We all have some sort of legacy we leave. Whether we’re world famous or known just to our families, we all have something to share. And as we share, hopefully with love and compassion, we hopefully can learn to appreciate the impact EVERY being makes on someone. That person is the pebble in the […]

My mother and Dr Martin Luther King. Some pretty cool memorabilia.
In honor of Martin Luther King Day, I thought I’d share some cool memorabilia from my mother’s personal collection. My mother and Dr Martin Luther King weren’t friends, but it seems that they both admired each other very much. The top photo is my mother, Nancy Wilson, Sammy Davis Jr., Sidney Poitier, Berry Gordy […]

Denim, Dolce & Gabbana and Simply Eartha
As I’ve mentioned, I would wear comfy jeans all the time if I could, so even when I have to dress up (a little), I will opt for Denim, Dolce & Gabbana and Simply Eartha bling. And, yes, I tend to wear torn denim, which would drive my mother crazy (typical mother-daughter battle :)). Faliero […]

Smile and Be Bold. Kitt Shapiro loves a red lip color for the holiday season.
I love a Bold Lip, and December is the perfect time of year to wear red. My favorite red lip color is Amaranth by Albeit at Anthropologie ( I actually wear it all year long). It’s perfect for smiling, which, if you know me, I do a lot. Here are a couple of […]

Walking With Eartha
There were no shortcuts growing up with my mother Eartha Kitt. In fact, when it came to exercise, the long route was often the one she chose. Walking, she felt was the “simplest thing in the world to do – and the best and cheapest form of aerobic exercise (no fees, no equipment),” and […]

Eyeing the chain. Lessons learned the hard way.
I was eyeing the chain as it draped across the driveway, marking its territory, daring anyone to cross. The large, shiny steel colored links held each other with the strength of ancient Chinese warriors. It hung low in the middle like a pregnant cat’s belly, but maintained its power nonetheless. I was hypnotized as it […]

Measure With Your Eye
Fried chicken, sweet potatoes and collard greens. No matter how far my mother – Eartha Kitt – had come from her roots in South Carolina, she was still a southerner when it came to cooking. Those were the foods she cooked the most when I was young. And, rice. I’m not sure why all of […]
