I haven’t written an “I Like Her Style” post in awhile.  Lately, I haven’t been felt like there is anyone in the public eye whose style has been too inspiring lately.     However, this “I Like Her Style” has been long overdue since I’ve been an admirer of musician Janelle Monae and her style [...]

I’m not someone that tries to make things symbolic when there really is no need.  However,  I thought I’d write this post on this date, August 26th, a week shy of my 26th birthday, with a list of 26 tasks that I want to complete.   I know I won’t complete them all [...]

Another semi-lazy Sunday, but I’m doing a bit of work here and there.  Today is filled with cooking, cleaning and True Blood anticipation.  Here are some thoughts and musings on this beautiful (but hot) day:

Sometimes we all need a little inspiration.  Whether it’s writing, fashion or photography, imagery or examples are necessary for helping us trudge through    For me, I am always looking for hair inspirations.  Yes, for my hair. When I became natural during my Sophomore year of college, I was happy that I was done with [...]

So I’ve been a bad blogger in the past couple of weeks.   Lack of anything to write about and nothing inspirational to me right now.  I haven’t been shopping or even looking in the past few weeks.  Maybe it’s the Chicago weather that keeps me down.  I briefly went on a rampage trying to find [...]

Polyvore is fun. It lets me create what I would wear if I had the means. I signed up awhile ago, but I hadn’t created any sets. I was just playing around and created the set below. I used Ms. Jourdan Dunn for my hair inspiration (yes, hair inspiration) and created [...]

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, [...]
