The Black Carrie Bradshaw covers this month’s issue of Vibe Vixen with a smize and her curls swept away. Instead of a super glam look, Tracee Ellis Ross opted for one of her favorite retro graphic tees and slim-fitting slacks that show off just a hint of curve.

The star of BET’s Reed Between the Lines, says her real-life wardrobe is much different than her classic role as Joan on Girlfriends and her new role as Carla Reed. “I am different than both of those ladies. I dress sexier than Carla, meaning I wear more form-fitting clothes. I have a little more edge to the way I dress than both of the ladies. And I dress down way more than both of those ladies.”

The single gal, who’s been most recently linked to Akon’s little brother, Bu Thiam, also took to the time to encourage her fellow single sisters. “I don’t think anybody’s doomed if they’re single. The only thing that dooms you is if you’re not willing to stretch outside of your comfort zone to try different things.”
