So I’ve been on a massive hunt for the perfect pair of booties in the last couple of weeks. The thing is, I don’t want to spend a ton of money on them, because I already have a pair of boots that I’m pretty much in love with forever. In my search, I’ve found a [...]

I’ve been a fan of Alexander McQueen since I was a wee teenager.  I poured over magazines and searched for any article I could find about the man.  Every season, his show is one of the first I look forward once images are ready. I do not have a McQueen piece in my closet, not [...]

As I am getting older, I’ve been paying attention to details in my lifestyle and beauty regimens and what I need to do to better take care of myself.   This includes one of my biggest peeves: under eye circles.  There really isn’t anything I can do about them since they are genetic.  My father has [...]

A friend recommended this book to me after I told her that I was ready to give myself a mini-life makeover.  I told her that I wasn’t ready for a “self-help” book yet, but she told me that I should check it out and I’d probably think of the book as anything but self-help.  Now, [...]

I turned 25 about two months ago. To even type that is kind of jarring right now. But it is the truth. Anywho, in my life time I have witnessed many historical events. Even more, I’ve seen more non-talent musical artists come and go than I would like to admit. So far, I’ve lived a [...]

So today was supposed to be my much anticipated (as it is every week) “wash day”. And I don’t mean for clothes, either. It’s the day that I use a better part of my day focusing on washing, conditioning and styling my hair. It became a weekly tradition once I decided that I wouldn’t go [...]

Ever since I’ve heard of American Apparel a few years back, I’ve always been on the fence about the store and clothing. The advertising has always…for a lack of better word, disturbed me. I’m not even talking about the provocative poses of the women that model for the store, either. The whole throwback to the [...]

So this is my first post on this blog.   Hopefully, this will be my little place of the web to carve out and express thoughts on whatever comes to mind.  Pop culture, fashion, travel, the city of Chicago and everything in between. I always wanted a blog, but I felt like everyone had one and [...]
