Life Goes On : THESE>>>>> ARE THE Days of our lives


















A day of relaxation with some friends, turned photo shoot at Railroad Park ,  the Beautiful new Park in Birmingham ! The Day was perfect. Dinner at AL's , Trips to Piggly Wiggly, Nice Zombies, who helped NinjaStar jump off my car , too fashion surfing and homemade cookies, at midnight ! <3
I love the kind of people that I surround myself with. Cre8ive minds that aren't afraid to stand out. No pressure to conform or do the norm....It brings out the happiness within me ^_^

Mtindo: BOWTIES NOT JUST FOR THE GENTS ! ! ! !

So, lately I've been wondering if I could/ wanted to duplicate a more feminine version of the classic bow tie look that I have seen on my gents ! But my worry was that it would go Butch lesbian or Playboy Playmate ..... However !!! :D I've been drawn so close , that i just, must .....so while you gander at these magnificent examples...picture it LOL I'll be updating on my bow tie look !

Do You Hear That ? Kelis - Acapella

B4 this song , I was not really a Kelis fan, yes i did my occasional ballad of how my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, but other than that, I never really saw her as having merit. She has 75% changed my mind with this song, and 25% with the album overall! And her fashion, well , I LIKE IT ! COOL BEANS GIRL!! Acapella is such a touching song, check it out !!


Mtindo: Box Kitty Box!!

EXTREMELY CUTE CLOTHES ALERT !!

So, a while back I found this really cool site called "Boxing Kitten" , from another blog that was talking about Rhianna's clothing in the video, "Rude Boy" ! After some snooping and digging , I found that it was quite popular amongst the Fashionistas of Hollywood , For example, The Knowles Sisters (Beyonce and Solange for those slow pokes )! The Line is really cool and eclectic , but a tad bit pricey( BUT SO KINDA WORTH IT !! ) Its a mix of cool colors, patterns, styles, and fabrics. Imagine if the 1950's ,1970's and late 2000's had a love child , they would name her : Boxing Kitten ! Here are some pics for your eyes to indulge in:


They sooo cute !! The website is : www.Boxingkitten.com ! Just click here for extreme cuteness !!

Au Naturel : Holding on !!




Okay SO! I love to make my own products because i get the chance to make things that work for my hair, so ! Ive been looking for new methods of holding my twist outs that is less expensive and smells nice! I have been using Elasta QP , but one, its really difficult to deal with, and two , its stinky :(!! *(Its has like a washing power, soapy, smell to it ) SO!!!! I decided to try to make a concoction of my own, i haven't done it yet, but here is my idea : Beeswax, which is great for hold, Plus Shea butter, which is great for softness, shine, and hold, coconut oil, which controls frizziness and adds shine, and vitamin E oil , which stimulates softness and add shine, and so much more ! So


Hopefully it works out well!!! i will have to try it a couple of times to get the measurements right and all of that, and also how it affects my hair, so until then
