We haven’t heard too much from Marlo since Kenya Moore took over the “crazy” role on RHOA, but she reportedly gave 20 families turkeys along with meals through her ‘Simply Giving’ campaign during Thanksgiving this year.
For Christmas, Hampton says she plans to do it all again…
It’s my way of “Simply Giving Back” to families during the holidays or a special time of the year. I was able to bless 20 needy families for Thanksgiving with a full meal and all the fixins.
I will also be giving back during Christmas and recruiting my Glam It Up girls to show them what it means to give back and do good service at at a soup kitchen.
More excerpts + photos & behind the scenes video of Hampton’s shoot below…
So what or who made you love fashion as a teen?
As a teen I was in and out of foster care; so having the best fashion was something that seemed unattainable. I didn’t win Best Dressed, but I understood at an early age I couldn’t afford certain kinds of clothing when I was growing up. But, what I do remember about my mother was that she loved nice things. At times, when we did get clothes; we would get them from a second hand store. And she always kept us clean and extremely polished.
What designers can you not live without?
I think this may be sort of obvious, and a little birdie might have let you know… all things CHANEL. I am very partial to their clothes because CoCo Chanel was an Orphan. I can relate to that. She didn’t have parents to raise her, but look at what she’s overcome. Her story reminds me of mine. She had humble beginnings but Chanel is the Queen of Fashion, all of their pieces are classy and timeless!
What designer would you want to collaborate with on a collection? Would it be high end or price friendly?
I would love to work with the designers of J. Crew. Their pieces are simply stunning and they have a good mix of everything. Our collection would be what I call “Fashion Affordable.” Nice pieces, for an affordable price, with great style, trend but quality material.
There would be something for everyone. We all deserve a piece of Marlo.

What fashion accessories does a women need to be fabulous?
The one accessory that EVERY women needs to be Fabulous is CONFIDENCE. it’s the one accessory that’s Priceless. Money can’t buy it and as long as you wear that; nothing else matters!
Since we are in your closet right now give me one fashion secret that you can’t live without?
ELECTRICAL TAPE. It’s an instant breast lift without surgery. Makes your Breasts look real nice and perky!

Photographer: Will Sterling, Fashion Stylist: J.Bolin/Daniel Hawkins
When I initially saw just her face in the first shot I thought she was Cynthia Bailey for a second.
I’m about 98% sure that Daniel Hawkins doesn’t date girls, but Lord is he cute!!!!!
I used to live in Atlanta, ad I used to see DAniel around sometimes, and yeah he’s gay, but seems cool. I actually like Marlo’s sense of style, the girl can dress and you can’t take that away from her.
I love her wonderful fashions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Marlo resembles Cynthia Baily(face wise only) in that top pic but other than that I don’t see her looking like a fashion model. Love the sandals. I have seen that black dress she has on in a different color on Kim Kardashian and Jada Pinkett-Smith. Cant’ tell how she looks in it because she’s sitting down.
The boots are ugly. Said the same thing when Kim wore them.
IMO, Marlo wears expensive clothes but she doesn’t "rock" her outfits. She always manage to come out looking ordinary.
Kudos to her and all the other wannabes who helped feed the hungry around the holidays.
meant to say…."she DON’T rock her outfits".
You said it correctly the first time. LOL
LMAO…thanks Upenzi. When I typed "doesn’t" in that sentence this morning, for some reason it didn’t sound right so I changed it to "don’t"…which was wrong.
Thanks again….I can laugh at myself and have no problem with correction as long as it’s legit and brought to me in the right way.
You said it right the first time!
i couldn’t have said it better myself…she likes labels…but has a hard time with fashion. Fashion isn’t about expensive labels..but making something ordinary stand out…even if it is vintage. I wouldn’t look twice at her if I saw her out.
She looks fab, but I just cannot stand how materialistic this woman is. She’s the type of broad that will have everything and end up with nothing when she’s older.
she is already older and she has it all and trust me she knows what it feels like to not have so therefore she will not be like tboz and waste all her money, she love fashion and it shows..why cant you be happy for others damn..pure hater!!!! please dont pull out your AK47 on her white boy!
She looks like Rah Digga in the had and ugly ass boots.
Are they leather legwarmers or is that a whole boot?? That ish is ugly. She looks good though.
Ion know but them shits don’t make no damn sense and they do not belong on the feet of anyone except mules.
They’re those ugly ass Chanel boots. I wouldn’t buy them if they were $20. I have come to the conclusion that some people will wear anything just because of the designer label.
The boots look very fashion forward. I like.
Can I be like you when I grow up? lol, Good work as always
HOTT
And what does she do to earn money again? She always avoids the questions when people ask!
Marlo Hampton is theshit.com!
Yes i miss her alot and it would be kicks to see marlo and Kenya together.
*YAWN*….NEXT…….
Yes!
Porsha or Kenya can go.
Marlo is serving in those pictures. The hair is gorg too.
hmm, I’ve seen Marlo look better. Don’t like any of these looks. And I’m also unsure as to why she needs a personal assistant. But I digress. I WILL give her this: whoever she has doing her taxes (maybe that’s what her personal assistant does)deserves a raise, and Ms. Marlo deserves a round of applause for being unemployed but not having the tax man come after all the money she made escorting. I’d actually like to see a post on her about 10 years from now. She’s getting old. Ain’t nobody gonna be willing to pay for it much longer.
Marlo is gorgeous. Yall just jelly!
Awwwwwh, Marlo you are stunning! I love the last pic in the dress, beautiful. Miss you from RHOA…
I have to give props where they are warranted! Marlo is fly as hell! If she ever needs a gig she should consider being a stylist
the nutcake Kenya can go
Victim ass sh*t starter porsha can exit stage right! Bring Marlo back
She always looks great. If she is only talking about fashion then she has nice things to say otherwise almost everything she says is negative or shady.
She’s an inspiration to criminal hood rats everywhere… you can all be a phony materialistic gold-digging fashionista!!
Lol, but you’re right.
It is nice to see Marlo again.
MARLO YOU LOOK GOOD AND YOU DID YOUR THING GIRL…FAB …U .. LOUS…KEEP IT COMING GIRLFRIEND AND KEEP MAKING THOSE POCKETS FAT!!! LOVE YOU GIRL AND I LOVE ALL THE LOOKS..YOU ROCK HONEY…CAN I PLEASE SEE WHAT ELSE IS IN YOUR CLOSET? LOL
Marlo is a BADD B!TCH with IMPECCABLE TASTE, I just wanna know how many checks she BOUNCED to pay for them clothes!! I kid, I kid, I know she keeps her an ARSENAL of RICH WHITE SUGAR DADDIES, I meant SPONSERS, no "BOYFRIENDS!!" I would love to see Marlo & "Kan’t Katch & Keep a Man" Kenya go at it (wink, wink BRAVO!)=]
Marlo has been through some things in her life, and I commend her for every good thing that she has done with her life. All of these haters only wish they could. Keep up the good work. And if you are escorting, kudos to you! At least you have a job. I can’t stand jealous haters.
lollol.. Just simple. Yes, I wish that I could whore myself out for meaningless pieces of fabric, bags, shoes to fill the dark whole that is inside me because my mother was crazy, didn’t love me, and now I use materials to make myself feel better because I’m hallow inside. I’m also hating because I too wish I was pushing 40, barren, have a wrap sheet 2 miles long, and have to sleep with old, wrinkled ass white men for coins.. hahaha. Chile…..Please. GET YO LIFE
That’s exactly what I say. If a person has to constantly talk about labels all day everyday then that really shows me that they aren’t used to having shit and their a sad case. Oprah has a shit load of money but she isn’t out there talking about this designer or that designer. Marlo is filling a void in her heart or her soul because apparently she feels that I what makes her happy but she’s not happy. The material things are nothing but a mask of unhappiness.
She is serving runway coture on a bed of $5000 an hour to hum on old man nutz! Werk!
Hell yea I miss her she will give it to Kenya!
Marlo looks gorgeous in those pictures. I love her sense of style. I miss her RHOA!!! BRAVO pls bring her back and get rid of dingy ass Porsha.
do it big marlo..hey can’t hate on the girl..she came from the bottom and rose to the top! how ya like that!
Top of some old white dude…sorry, this is not the inspirational story you thought it would be…nor that I want to tell my kid….you can have what ever you want in life baby girl, as long as you are willing to lay on your back and get it…yeah, sorry, no.
PLEASE BRING MARLO BACK TO RHOA! People love her and love to hate her! Perfect for ratings! I can see her fued with Kandi developing. Kandi needs the story line. Marlo & Kenya would be too crazy and too funny on the same screen. Poor Porche wouldn’t stand a chance! BRING MARLO BACK! She brings all the realness to the show. (Exposing all the stuff we read on the blogs) EVERYTHING SHE SAID AT THE REUNION CAME TO LIGHT ON THE SEASON 5 PREMIERE! Bravo used her the ditched her. Smh. She’s still made all the ladies step their fashion game up. If only she was a "wife" lol
That top pic definitely certifies why she gets PAID!! LOVE YOU MARLO!! You are "Gone With the Wind FABULOUS…OKAAAY?"
I love Marlo but I’m not feeling these pics they look late and too much air brushing…and electrical tape is very tranny Tea…
I loved Marlo on RHOA please bring her back Bravo …..I would love to see her and Kenya go at & Kandi too lol and her Style & Fashion you can’t touch she a bad bad bish YOU BETTER WERK MARLO!!!!
This person is the epitome of everything that is wrong with our culture…I pray for the day when people like her are regarded with contemp, instead of being lauded praise
Exactly, Aamir1. I just don’t get it; but I also don’t get people standing in line for some expensive ass tennis shoes. Some black people have to wrong priorities. All those designer shoes/bags, but living in a condo. She won’t be wearing those shoes when she’s ninety. Or even when they go out of season. She’s got a gimmick. Those NEVER lasts.
Good luck with that.
Nice
Marlo looks FAB!!!
[...] spotted the former RHOA star on SFTA werkin her signature ‘long heel, red bottom’ style for the cover of Denim magazine. [...]
For this trashy hoe to be in any magazine other than hustler or BustMOpen is a travesty. She’s a horrible depiction of black women; a walking stereotype.
Marlo you are relevant.
Michelle Brown, please stop talking about Marlo Hampton. Do you realize you are the only blogger still acknowledging Marlo’s existence?? Please let this lady go away and stop talking about her. This lady is garbage!!! It’s almost like you are obsessed with her. Stop it please.
