Summer is Near + GIVEAWAY!

Hello Loves, 

I hope you all are holding up this Friday. As most of you know, South Carolina hasn't had the greatest news...but LOVE & PRAYER will surpass it all. Please pray for Charleston. 

On a less heavier note, I wanted to share with you an outfit that I love wearing over the summer (give or take the long sleeve). Summer is full of bold colors and many maxi dresses. 

I love colors, so this dress caught my eye and I fell in love with it! If you know me...you know once I fall in love, it's all or nothing! lol. 




This outfit is actually a halter maxi dress (chiffon material) and I layered it with a long sleeve light grey cardigan. Since it was an outfit for church, you know I can't have my arms all OUT! LOL. At any rate, I paired it with classic black pumps and a black bag. I also curled my hair, but they kind of turned into very loose waves by the time the photo-shoot started to happen. 




 I know sometimes people say busy outfits can be a con to certain body shapes. I find this statement (usually made by inexperienced fashionistas) to be false. LOL. If anything it helps distracts your eyes, and can be quite flattering. Don't listen to negative comments, especially when they don't have the goods! ;)



Finally, I accessorized with my Jessica Simpson sunglasses (R.I.P.). Thank you to my brother Jacob for being my photographer and being as patient with me as I am with him. LOL. jk.



 Ok, ladies...I hope this gets you excited for the summer! Happy shopping ladies.

Thanksgiving: CHECK ...now, Christmas!

Hello my dear readers, I'm so sorry I've been so ghost on all of you! Huge thanks to D2 for keeping you guys updated. :D I have been crazy trying to travel for Thanksgiving, Christmas shopping for a family that my job adopted, and trying to continue planning my upcoming trip to NY...last but not least work. :/ hehehe. At any rate, I know everyone is getting ready to spend quality time with their families over the holidays as well as giving wonderful gifts from the heart. I'm more of a giver than a receiver. I love to think my heart was constructed under the blue print of the heart of Jesus...always giving out of love. I am not saying Christmas should be about gifts, but it's always nice when I can make someone else smile. Definitely take this time to appreciate your loved ones and spend the time that you've missed with them throughout the year. ...AND if you have some EXTRA time on your hands, feel free to reach out to those in real need. We are too blessed ...

Fast Forward to July 2018...

Hello ladies, Has it really been two years since I've blogged??? I really dropped the ball this time. In my defense, I was off social media for one of those years. You know... the whole "social-media cleanse." Which by the way would have been a total success if I hadn't become a youth leader and needed to promote events. LOL. All for the greater good tho. Wow, I don't even know where to start, so I'll start with I'M SORRY and I've missed blogging! So much has happened since my move to the Sunshine State. Here's a quick overview: 1. I was jobless for two months. 2. By God's grace, I landed a job in Flood Insurance. 3. Found a church home, became a member, and a youth leader and Sunday School teacher(obviously not right away) 5. Found the greatest and most loving church family...I wouldn't replace them for the world 4. Quit my job in Flood Insurance (long story), and started working at an Elementary School as an ESOL Paraprofess...

"Curly" Straws beautify! :)

Happy Thursday loves, I'm really exhausted today, but I thought one thing would cheer me up...BLOGGING! :) So thanks to the fabulous Divas in my life who research just as much as I do about fashion, here is another trick for your hair. Curls! These are really tight curls, but there are many other tutorials to show you how to loosen them. You will need the following items to accomplish this look: STRAWS, Bobby pins ,  & maybe some hairspray. Yes, you read correctly...Straws! (^.^) No curling iron, no flat iron, no heat...all natural. hehehehe. My older sister actually used this trick on her daughters hair, which is long a beautiful, and it was adorable! Cheap way to make curls...I think it's a WINNER! They really do come out beautiful. Personally, I haven't tried it yet...probably because I'll need a WHOLE BUNCH of straws for my hair, but I think it's worth trying. I'll let you know how mine turn out & feel free to let us know your results ...
