Hello Single Life!

Today blog is dedicated to the lovely single ladies not only of the Big Shoe (my slogan of NYC), but all across the ocean and seas. Single -unmarried or unattached, now my definition; Single - happy, exciting, and experience. Today a lot of us especially the female species , believe that if we are not in a relationship by 25 it's a mid life crisis or that something is wrong with us, and if not married by 30 it's the end of the world. We watch shows like Girlfriends, Sex in the City, and The Hills , and see that being in our mid 20's and 30's that more women are successful, beautiful, and more opinionated. Ladies, wake up; this is 2010 we don't need a man to fulfill us just to be our partner in crime. Last week, Tasha B and myself were both watching a sermon by Joel Olsen and he referred to us to learn to patiently wait. As a 25 year old woman, I have come to realize that even though I am still young!, but I am still getting older?! I look at my challenges with men is just a way for me to breakdown the men I been with, and analzye them to learn what I like and don't like. So all you lovely ladies that feel like it's the end of the world because your single; EMBRACE! SHOP! and SEEK! prince charming is only a few minutes away, but a few months and probably years from being mr. right! So take your time and enjoy the single life signing out !

Highs and Lows

In browsing other blogs I noticed that many people go the route of illustrating different outfit ideas in one way or another. I played around with the idea of doing something similar but did not want to fall into the trap of the "typical" fashion posts. After much consideration I realized a blog is just a collage of your thoughts and ideas and should be a reflection of your personality. To know me is to know my love for fashion so in saying that I will be adding posts that I call "Highs and Lows" where I will showcase how to mix high end items with lower priced items (not necessarily low quality items). Stay tuned!

However, despite being sidetracked (aka tapping into the fund) I am back on point. My baby, Chanel 2.55 (I think I will call her Sheeba) is due to enter my world in July. Patiently waiting!!!!

Valentines Day

hello lovers, singles, and couples this is the holiday which is the holiday of love. Men run to the store to get their wives, girlfriends, Baby mothers, or even their mistress the gifts that they will love and remember for a long time. Fridays episode of Wendy Williams she had the host of the Millionaire Matchmaker on Bravo speaking about love, relationships and a successful marriages. On this Valentine Day, I think that we need to actually love ourselves this year! As for a single Valentines day I never came to dread the lovely dovey expressions that float in stores, on homes, and even in schools. When growing up I seen Valentine day not only a day for love of others, but of yourself. I believe that we should work hard on self love. When feeling down, look in the mirror and tell yourself "GOD is love, I am Love, and Love is Us". When you seem to love yourself their is nothing else to love, and don't let Valentines Day be your only reason to be happy for love, but everyday! So have a rejuvenating, expressive, and wonderful Valentines Day.


P.S.
tonight sexy up yourself, drink a glass of wine, and say I love me!

CALLING ALL MY FASHIONISTAS!!!



IT'S THAT TIME OF THE YEAR AGAIN...I SOOO CAN'T WAIT!!!

The Bible


Every woman should have a copy of this book in her arsenal. It gets me through the roughest weeks. I can read it time and time again!!!

GROWN APART

Is it possible for close friends to grow apart?

I answer with a resounding YES!!
At this point in my life I don't call just anyone a friend. I have MANY associates, some I speak to daily and some once a month. When I take a step back and evaluate these friendships I question where did we go wrong? The only answer I can come up with is "we've grown apart". By grown apart I don't mean move to another state. Grown apart in my terms means we have chosen to travel down different paths. My mother has always told me that your circle of people should reflect the person you are and all the drama will be LIMITED (please note, I didn't say eliminated, we are women for crying out loud). Some may translate that into being superficial and yes that is one aspect of it but it also means to surround yourself with people of the same interests or accomplishments. This limits the jealousy, envy and phoniness!!!!

In saying that for the new year (its only Feb so I can still add to my 2010 goals, hmph) I plan to limit my contact with those that I know just do not have my best interest at heart, those that pray on my downfall, and those that I straight don't have ish in common with!!! Some are easy to spot while others I may have to look beneath the surface a little more. If all I am left with in the end is family i'd be grateful because all I did was make room for those that are worthy!

P.S. Merely my opinion and what is currently on my mind!

ALL MOVED IN!!

Ok guys i'm all moved in and I must say I wish I would have done it sooner. Although I always had my own space, nothing compares to physically being on your own. Yeah I may be paying 3 times more than what I was paying my parents but the rewards are instantly gratifying. Nothing compares to the feeling I get when I walk through the door. This leads me to my next topic...

I came from a home where we didn't want for much. We had the necessities plus some added luxuries. Some may say I lived a sheltered life but that was far from the case. My parents allowed me to venture into the world and learn on my own and I GRATEFULLY thank them for that. I have made many mistakes along the way but it has totally made me the person I am today. Granted I am human and I still make my mistakes but there are some things I can see coming a mile away! I see things that go on around me and I thank goodness I was able and still am able to avoid those pitfalls! So this goes out to you guys (my parents) THANK YOU!!!!!!!

NATASHA

The name Natasha (Russian) means Christmas Day or birthday. It is usually used to portray desirable and enviable female characters in film, literature, etc. Most Natasha's are beautiful. They exude mystery and seduction.

A woman of outstanding beauty, intelligence, and grace.

NOW AINT' THAT THE TRUTH!!!! LOL

HEAD OVER TO URBANDICTIONARY.COM AND SEE WHAT YOUR NAME MEANS!

IM BACK

Ok guys, I took a little break to get all situated with my move. I have a lot on my mind these days so excuse me if my posts go off on a tangent.
