Its My Blog-i-versary

Happy Birthday to Me

One year ago today I started my blog, not knowing exactly what I would do with it or where it would go.  I must say that I have enjoyed blogging (what little that I have blogged) and the meeting of all my other fellow bloggers.  I appreciate the followers that I have gained thus far and the journey that lies ahead for me.  I have vowed to give better dedication to my blog and to continue to enjoy what new challenges that will arise.  It only gets better.



Walking In New Shoes

Hey Fashionista's

I been gone for a minute, now I'm back.  I don't want to say that I'm 100% back because honestly I don't know.  To be honest, this rut has gotten the best of me and I have just been lazy with everything surrounding me, which is so unlike me.  I will start my outfit post again really soon and especially because the weather here in DC has been outstanding.  I love this type of weather & I am hoping that its hear to stay.  Well although I haven't been doing any outfit post I have been doing a lot of shopping and rightfully so I will soon be showing my new babies off with many outfit post to come.  See I'm already climbing my way up out of my rut...lol.  Any-hoo I wanted to show you ladies my many shoes I've purchased over the last couple of months.  I can't wait to rock them which is mainly why I need this weather to stay.  Well let me get the photos, let me know your thoughts.  Ugh, my camera does no justice to the color of my shoes.

Fashionista's,

I need your help, I found the cutest pink and white thrifted sweater but can't seem to think about what to style it with.  I thought about pairing it with some light, light blue denim jeans, but then what shoes to wear it with.  I am so back and forth with it.  The pic of the sweater is below, please give me some insight on what you think would work best with it and maybe I can have some fun with it and create the look you ladies come up with.

Fashionista's,

Happy Friday Ladies and cheers to the freaking weekend.  I must say that I have been in a good mood over the last few days,  but things are definitely starting to look up for me.  Today's outfit I decided to wear all jean material, this is definitely the trend thats in.  I am wearing my favorite pair of jeans, there my favorite because they are just so comfortable and plus I got them from Walmart.  Walmart definitely have some cute inexpensive jeans.  I love when I can shop on a budget and still look fashionable.  So below you will find my pics.  Hope you all have a great weekend.

Birthday Celebration

Hi Fashionista's,

I had a busy weekend.  My sister celebrated her 35th birthday with fam and friends and I must say we had a fab time.  I took lots of pictures but most of them were taken to go in my scrapbook.  We celebrated her b-day Friday night at club Parva in Bethesda, and on Saturday (her actual born day) we had a family dinner at G&M restaurant in Maryland.  They have the absolute best crab cakes. I encourage all my DMV folks to try them out.  I did get a few pics of my outfit so I'll post them below.  Valentines day is coming up soon, what are some of your plans?

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.
