Last Minute Memorial Day Sales
Happy Memorial Day!!! A day that we choose to remember those who risked their lives to serve our country (moment of silence). It’s also a day filled with BBQ, a trip to the park, and online shopping sales. But you realized you haven’t done any shopping for Memorial Day sales and you had ALLLLLLLL weekend. You start thinking, “Dang it!! I’m too late!” I’ve been there since I’m the queen of procrastination. Lol!! But have no fear!!! I got you boo!! I came up with a list of Memorial Day Sales of my favorite stores. These sales, with the exception of…
You Betta’ Work!!
States are slowly reopening during the shutdown. I feel some kind of way about that but I digress. That means saying goodbye to DIY mani-pedis, at home haircuts, and working from home. 🙁 As we prepare to return to the office, I’m posting more content on affordable work attire. I like to write blog posts that can be useful based on a specific time or circurmstance. No shade to more established bloggers, because y’all gotta make a living. I know some readers have limited budgets and only want to spend money on their needs. Since our favorite restaurants and hot spots…
Why I Went Natural?
My natural hair has been my pride and joy for almost 7 years. It’s funny because a lot of people don’t remember me or have never seen my hair in its relaxed state. I also never shared my story on why I went natural. So here it goes!! Picture this, summer of 2013 in Atlanta (in my Sophia from Golden Girls voice). I just graduated from grad school and was scared out of my mind about my next step into adulthood. When a big change happens in my life, I always change my hair. For example, when I graduated from college,…
What I’m Watching and My Favorite PJs…So Far
The pandemic has given me more time to watch TV whether it’s binge watching an old show or checking out the movie you weren’t able to watch at the movies. Here is my list that my husband and I have seen so far. Hulu 24 – Apparently my husband was living under a rock when this show was on TV. I have to admit, I didn’t understand the hype until I watched an episode with my family. Needless to say, my husband was hooked and happened to finish this show within a short period of time. Plus if I’m in danger,…
Five Things I’ve Appreciated During the Pandemic
It’s been almost a month since I’ve been in my home due to the Covid 19 pandemic. Boy, isn’t it an eye opening experience!! This has given me a lot of time to reflect on things I should appreciate more in life. With that being said, here are five things I’ve appreciated since the lockdown started: 1. The Outdoors – I for one am not a fan of the outdoors. The hot weather, bugs, and being sweaty are instant turnoffs. I’ve never had a desire to go outside just to take a walk around the neighborhood unti now! I may also…
Houndstooth
The houndstooth print is so on trend however, it’s a timeless pattern. I also love a monochromatic look, so I decided to create an outfit with the classic print. Instead of wearing a matching set, I mixed the size of the print. The wrap skirt is darling! I fell in love with it at Forever 21 and couldn’t leave without it. Then I paired the skirt with a crop top of a bigger size. The top is lightweight, perfect for spring. Lastly, the purse with a smaller houndstooth print actually came out of my closet but it was from Target. Then…
