Accessorized

Fashionista's,

Happy Sunday, it has been a great weekend and I hope you ladies enjoyed it.  Although today feels great, I was just not in the mood to take any pictures today, I wanted to enjoy my lazy Saturday and enjoying is what I'm doing.  It also gives me enough time to catch up on some of my school work and of course my blog reading.  For the new year I had challenged myself to not only wear my accessories more, but to also purchase more of them as well.  specifically bracelets, bangles & watches.  I have definitely been inspired by the arm parties that I have been seeing around town and from some of my blogger friends.  I have done the arm party so much but never thought to take pics and when I did take them, it was with my cell phone...so unlike me because I keep my camera in my purse at all times but when your having fun (or when I'm having fun) that's the last thing on my mind.  I wanted to share with you a couple of arm parties that I did take pics of with my cell phone of course and also my accessory box that's filled to the brim.  I don't know what options to use for organizing them, currently researching unique ways for that...please help.

Night of Blues

Hey Fashionista's,

Again, to all my followers I am sorry for the lack of post and I promise to try to keep them coming.  2012 just has not been starting off in my favor, but its nothing I can't handle.  I'm putting that "S" on my chest.  I have been down and out and sitting at home feeling blue.  I was so excited because tonight was the very first CapFabb Event of 2012 and I planned on attending, everyone knows once you get out and about you get out of that rut and I must say that I was looking forward to it.  Then in comes the family issue (inserts sad face here) and now my outing with all my fashionable bloggers looked like it wasn't going to happen.  I was all dressed and ready to mingle, so I thought I'd post pics of the look I was going to wear to the event.  I hoped you ladies had a great time and I can't wait to see your pics.

Hello Fashionista's,

Sorry I've been away so long but I have been handling some real life issues, what a start of the 2012 year for me, hoping everything works out in my favor.  I wanted to post my outfit that I wore to a day party Saturday.  I really needed to just hang out with my friends and not think about the "REAL WORLD" for a least one night.  I just love this blazer, its one of my favorite blazers I found thrifting, one of the things that I have become obsessed with doing...lol.  Also what do you ladies think of my hair, for those of you who follow me on twitter you know that I have challenged myself to not put any heat in my hair for the next six months.  This was my first time doing bantu knots and I thought the end results came out pretty decent considering that I don't do hair at all.  Anyway hope you ladies enjoy the pics.

NEW YEAR

Fashionista's,

Happy New Year to my Fashionista's.  I hope you all enjoyed your holidays.  I also would like to send a warm welcome & thank you to my new followers.  Its a new year and I am so eager to start new things, going out more, shopping and of course making new memories.  I didn't get a chance to really celebrate the new year because my mom moved this weekend however I will post my outfit that I wore on the last Friday of 2011.  FYI... I am on day 12 of my 6 month challenge of no heat in my hair.  So far so good, I'll make sure to keep you guys updated.

My Visions

Hi Fashionista's,

I hope you all enjoyed your holiday and got what your heart desired.  So the countdown to the New Year...2012 is just 4 days away, I can't believe that this year is over.  I have had some ups and downs and have made some changes and I plan to take those changes with me into 2012, I've learned to appreciate ME more & I've also starting back with writing in my journal.  This particular post, I wanted to give you ladies a sneak peak on my vision wall and book.  I first heard about the vision book from Necole Bitchie I just love her and I had been going back & forth with myself on whether I should do a board or a book, so I decided that I would do a book that would showcase my life's goals that I would like to accomplish or do over the next few years, the wall...I had to first see the best location, at first I thought behind my bed, but then I realized that its something that I will need to look at or add to everyday, so I decided to put my vision wall up directly in front of my bed, it will be the first thing I see when I wake and the last thing I see when I go to sleep.  I'm starting with a clean slate, fresh and new and I must say I am excited to see the outcome and my vision wall will be a constant reminder.  I have taken a few pics of some of my items that I purchased and of course my clippings and any ideas that you ladies have for me I would be more than happy to hear.  I hope you all enjoy your New Years and I'll see you in 2012.

Blogger Obsession: My Faves

Fashionista's,

I want to thank the person who created blogging.  I love to take pictures and write so it works out so well for me. When I first started blogging I thought it would just be something that I would do for fun, but over the past few months I have learned so much and I know this is something that I would continue to do.  On the other hand, I have enjoyed reading other bloggers post and they definitely inspire me with the outfits that several of the ladies put together, it has opened my eyes up to fashion 100% more.  I have been attended events and have had the opportunity to meet some bloggers, I didn't know that we had so many bloggers in the DC area, and I love it.  It's so great to have a group of women come together in support of one another and to just talk about all things FASHION....and we all have that in our own unique way.  Enough with my babbling, I wanted to share a few of my favorite blogs that I am obsessing over (in a good way), I am always eager to see what these ladies are blogging about and/or wearing.  I have learned so much from them just from looking at their blogs, be it from photography to style.  I hope you ladies enjoy their blogs just as much as I do.

Bloggers Night Out-Bloomingdales

Hi Fashionista's,

I'm back 100% until the next semester of classes start.  I attended the 2nd annual DC Bloggers Night Out event on Wednesday that was held at Bloomingdales by #BNO and had a fantastic time.  I got a chance to see some old blogger friends and meet some new ones.  There were some great fashion finds and fashionista's at the event, it was great to see everyone mingling and snapping away.  So without further adieu here are some pictures to review.
