My Fave Mascaras

Hey! Today’s post is all about my favorite mascaras. If you’re not new around here, you know that I don’t wear a whole lot of makeup nor do I wear makeup too often. However, even on days when I don’t wear too much makeup I wear mascara. I think my eyelashes are pretty long and full so I don’t wear false lashes unless I get my makeup professionally done, As of late, I have been wearing a little makeup on the days I go into the office or meetings of course and these here mascaras ha[...]

My Fave Nude Lipglosses

Hey!!! Welcome back to the blog!!! Today’s post is all about my favorite nude lipglosses by NYX. Up until very recent (I’d say the last six years or so) I’d always worn neutral lipgloss. I wasn’t even wearing lipstick. Although I LOVE a red lip, I still love a good neutral/nude lip and for me, that’s typically a lipgloss. I am going to share three NYX lipgloss shades that are perfect alone or over lipstick. These lipglosses are really affordable and you can find them just about anywher[...]

WHAT TO WEAR TO HOMECOMING – HBCU EDITION

Hey pretty girl! Welcome back to the blog! If you follow me on Instagram, you've noticed that over the past week I have been posting "looks" for HBCU Homecoming Season. I know homecoming is a big deal for most, if not all colleges and universities; but I believe that HBCU's do homecoming better! They bring out current students, alumni, community members, children, businesses, you name...they're there. Because of this, I thought it would be cool to share inspirational looks for those of you who m[...]

WHAT’S IN MY WORK BAG – CUYANA TOTE EDITION

Hey pretty girl! Welcome back to the blog! After over two years of working from home, I have returned to the office – twice a week. I am probably one of the few people who have no issues with it. I absolutely loved working from home, which is something that I didn’t think I would enjoy…but I do like getting dressed up and gracing the world (random ppl and co-workers) with my presence. LOL!!! But…for whatever reason my employer has decided that I must return to the office twice a week and[...]

MY FAVORITE SUMMER DRESSES

I have to be honest with you, summer is not one of my favorite seasons. I think it has something to do with the fact that it gets too freaking hot down here in the south. I am a northern girl at heart and temps above 85 degrees is a bit much for me. The one thing that I do enjoy about summer is wearing dresses! Dresses are my absolute favorite outfit piece. I love wearing them! Not just because they're easy...you don't have to select a top and all of that...it's one and done outfit...I also love[...]

Athleisure, but make it a LOOK.

Because comfortable and polished are not mutually exclusive. 💅🏾

One thing Adidas is going to do is give me enough personality to actually style my athleisure. A little retro with denim, a neutral printed set, a full-on paisley moment, and then sporty colorblocking.

And yes, I absolutely believe the matching set is one of adulthood’s greatest inventions. 😂 Put it on, add the right shoe and accessories, and suddenly you look like you had a whole plan.

So tell me: 1, 2, 3 or 4? 👀

All white, but the proportions are what make it work. 🤍

Relaxed on top, defined at the waist, long through the leg—and just a tiny pop of color at the sleeve. Proof that a simple outfit doesn’t have to be a boring outfit.

Sometimes the styling trick really is that simple: add the belt. 🤎

This dress has an easy, relaxed shape on its own, but defining the waist completely changes the silhouette. The cognac also warms up this soft sage beautifully—and suddenly a simple dress feels intentional.

A lotta classic, a little charming, always polished. ✨

Viral? Yes. Effective? Also yes. Smells amazing? Well… 😬😂

I tried the viral body wash + body cream everyone has been talking about, and I have THOUGHTS.

The good news: the products actually do what they’re supposed to do. My skin feels clean, soft and moisturized — so from a performance standpoint, I get the hype.

But the scent? Let’s just say I’m not reaching for these because I want to smell delicious. 😂

Would I keep using them? Watch the review for my final verdict.

The little black dress—with a little more personality. 🖤

I love the feminine ruffle detail, easy swing silhouette and contrast trim on this one. It’s comfortable enough to throw on and go, but still feels polished with a few gold accessories.

An easy one-and-done outfit that does all the work for you.
