Things I'm Loving

Hey Ladies,

Here are a few things I've really been into this quarter, lol. Season.



I saw these at Nordstroms and was tempted to go back- $119, not bad....


I've been thinking about these Sandal booties. I saw a fierce pair in Red today. The ones above are L.A.M.B from DSW.


Are you surprised. Floral is Sick this season!


I was quite intrigued.

Saw this dress on the NM website...



On a side note... What are Gas prices looking like on your neck of the woods?

Kick Ass Women

Hey Guys- These are some of my fave women in the world. They truly empower women, are awesomely Independent. Unapologetic about being themselves, and keep it Moving.

I heart you - Katy Perry

Flavahz Crew- Your Never to young to follow your dreams!

Atim- Diva Mom WORK!

Kim- The Woman with the Plan- Love You Girl!

Akos- The Creator
Mwenya- My Mom- Nuff Said

And of course Me- Ready to do the Damn Thing

Remember, its our job, to build each other up.

Trio- My Sis and I

Atim and I headed to Last Call by Neiman Marcus, to check out some Maxi Dresses for her. I'd tried one on a few days ago, which just didn't quite fit me correctly. There were places where I couldn't fill it in. But I thought, hmm, Tum would fill the dress in way better then I did, especially with the ladies above, and her awesome hips. She tried the dress I had in mind on, and it was a flop. So I conclude, that particular style is just not made for she or I.

So we decided to look around and check out the different styles of dresses they had. My sis has a whole wardrobe full of the hourglass silhouettes. Which look spectacular on her, but sometimes you want to try something a little different.


I really liked this dress. She doesn't have anything like this in her wardrobe. Plus this a cute Casual or Dressy piece depending on the shoes, purse and or accessories...



      



This Dress looked Awesome on her.

Lilac

I freaking love this Color. I am very obsessed with it. If your a chocolate girl. This shade is amazing, I'm just saying. Please venture into Color.




Maxi Dress


Hey Guys I picked up this dress recently. I totally love it. It's very casual but effortlessly chic.  It actually reminds me of a Maxi Dress Evelyn Lodoza, from Basketball Wives, wore last season.

Dress from Last Call by Neiman Marcus.


While at the Mall I stopped by the Mac Boutique and picked up a new Shade of lipstick-  Desire. I was pleasantly surprised. I also picked up a Brow Set. Loving that!

Hey Guys,  It's a new day. There's shit to be done. So let's do it. Let's Go Tribal!



So how do you go Tribal. I have no clue. I just do it. If your Bold, go full throttle and get a dress, or funky pants, and blouse, from head to toe. If your prefer to be a bit more subtle, then pick a piece, a blouse, pants, skirt, or even shoes, and make that your tribal focal point. Then wear something muted, neutral everywhere else. If your looking to really pop, because nowadays prints have become the new Black, add a funky pop of color. Go bright Mercilessly. Why Not.

Lets Go Tribal

Summer is Here, and it feels like Everything is Hot. So whats in, this season?
Stripes, Print, Color Blocking, Floral, Shit you name it, it's there. I took a trip to out of NY, a while ago, and was curious to see what was what in the shopping scene. Gees like I need to be shopping, lol.



I love Bright COlors. But you already know this. I am not that girl whose afraid to venture wild. Your wardrobe should definitely reflect you state of mind, your disposition. So I did get this dress. I also picked up this really cool lilac dress. What do you think??

Just a Dream

Its bigger then you. And you are not me. The lengths that I will go to. The distance in your eyes.
Oh no I've said too much
...- R.E.M Losing my Religion

Hey Guys, so while perusing the streets in Midtown, I came across a Boutique- KARA New York. You'll actually find many of these Middle Easternesque fashion boutiques around this area. Anyway, I found a pair of shorts!!!! So I was really excited to share them with you all. Here they are, below. Remember that I was on my quest for some cool shorts this summer. Check out the Inspiration Here 




 

I actually love the blouse as well. The print was so Ghanaian.

I love dresses like the next girl. Whether it be long, short, colorful, dressy, plain, fitted, there's a dress out there for you. What I love most about dresses, is the fact that they're complete. In most cases you don't have to worry about a top and or bottom. Unless of course you want to add a Cardi, Blazer, Bolero or what have you...

Nonetheless your good to go with just a dress.

Dresses are my go to pieces every season, especially Summer. When its super hot, there's no stress no fuss, and you look put together. A few staple pieces of mine are multiple variations of the little Black dress. I have a new one, which I'm loving by the way. I'll post a pic of that in the next post. Its a pleated A line mini dress. Fabulous. Does some crazy things for my legs.

Until next time you'll. Whats your fave dress??

Fathers Day

What an Awesome Day. The weather was cool, bright, and ideal. I spent the day with my Dad, brothers, and later on my Sis and her Bestie. Jasmine was the only missing link.
