Article: 10 Weird Pregnancy Facts No One Tells You About
We all know how hard it can be to find fashionable plus size clothing at a good price. In light of that, about a month ago, I decided to start selling a few gently worn as well as brand new items from my closet. This week, I added a few items and started a Lace N Leopard Store to make item purchasing more easier. Take a look...you might just find something you like!
Ps. Most items are $20 and under and if you have anything specific that you are looking for, email me an let me know..I might just have it to sell :)
:: Interesting Fact of the Day :: In the 1940’s, the FCC assigned television’s channel 1 to mobile services (two way radio’s in taxi cabs, for instance) but did not re-number the other channel assignments. That is why your tv set has channel’s 2 and up, but no channel 1.
To say I had a great weekend would be an understatement. Even though I got to see a private screening of Think Like A Man about 2 months ago, the movie was SO cute that I wanted to see it again. So, when a few friends invited me to go this weekend, I jumped at the opportunity. Dinner, drinks, great conversation and a good movie? Couldn't have asked for a better time :) Here, is a little of my outfit of the day and my night out with the girls...
Yeah, so I BEEN graduated high school and college many moons ago '_' lol. But, this sweater that I thrifted for $1 a few days ago made me feel like I was on my way to campus. I paired it with some stone washed jeans, funky heels passed down from my grandmother and geeky specs to complete the look. Here is a little more of my outfit of the day.
Ps. Oh and because I LOVE learning random facts, I will start posting interesting facts here are there. Yeah I'm a dork O_o lol. If you have any you would like to share also, please feel free! I would love to see them!
I don't know what it is but it seems like as I've gotten older I do not watch music videos anymore! I'm literally asking, "Oh they have a video for that song?" lol. So anyways, I kept hearing about Brandy and Monica's song together...heard some good things..heard some bad. But no matter what the opinion was on the song, I heard that they both looked great on the video. Which prompted me to look it up a few days ago. As soon as I saw Monica and her headpiece I knew I HAD to have one of my own! Like now! I'm a good DIY'er if I REALLY REALLY apply myself..but I'm not into doing too much. If I need more than 5 materials...I'm good...lol. So I searched for an easy way to do this. I found a few videos to get an idea of what I wanted to do and then just improvised using all materials that I already had. Here is my outfit ofthe day with my DIY head piece :)
Dress: Cefian Flats: Previously owned Watches: Passed down from my grandmother
DIY Notes: Take a long chain and measure it to the size of your head, where it would fit comfortably on you. Cut the chain, and connect the two ends by opening the loop with round nose pliers and securing the loop again. I found a charm bracelet that I already had and removed one of the charms that I wanted to be my focal point. Goto the middle of your chain and open a loop, thread your charm through the loop and secure again with pliers and your done!
Ps. If my notes were not clear enough, I posted a youtube video on a 3-way head chain below to help you!
Goodness! I have been busy busy busy! Just getting a chance
to sit down, relax, internet surf and blog :) Anyhoo...today's post is a
photoshoot that I did with Southern girl Jontrell. Originally from New Orleans,
this down south girl was full of sass and fun. We decided to go for an edgy
type shoot full of chunky jewelry, cool shades and fun colors. Here is a little
more of my shoot with Miss Jontrell...
I don't know about yall, but there was a time in my life that I was completed addicted to makeup! I would not go a day without a full face of makeup, yep..lashes and all. And not to say anything is wrong with that, but I started noticing I didnt like the way I looked unless I had it on. Anyway, one day my mom was like "baby, your so pretty why do you wear SO much makeup?" It took my mom to say it...but I really reflected on what she said. The next day, I went cold turkey. I went into work, sans makeup, and people actually thought I wasnt feeling well...lol...I was like wow. Since then, I stopped wearing so much makeup to work and only get fancy with it on the weekends for the most part. Wondering...do you feel pretty without makeup? What are some items that you cant go without on a daily basis?
Here is a casual day at the office with a little foundation and lip gloss...
Kandi Burruss’ was recently spotted on the blue carpet in this number designed by friend and fashion designer Reco Chapele. What do you think? Yes? No? Or Maybe So? On another note…NeNe was looking good if I do say so myself!
