Something New, Something Blue...

Okay so I am not getting married or anything BUT I did buy a new make up palette!!! I am in LOVE.... let me tell you!!! I just had to wear something that target my inner rocker but tone is down to a mear office worker.... I am not sure I accomplished a great balance BUT hey I love my outfit! :)

I LOVE these colors and they are SO pigmented it is crazy!

I wore some black crops with black flip flops ( I have the perfect heels but between my son and being behind my desk all day... it wasn't worth my feet hurting) ANYWAY... I wore this shirt that I have had for almost 2 years now?! Never knew how to wear it and look flattering.... I like the way ti looked today! :) I will do a Youtube video on the product soon.... Enjoy the pics below...

Feeling a bit daring.... probably because my tattoo is showing! :)

Feeling Sexy... :)

Another fav video! Show her how we roll! :)

Drop it Drop it Drop it LOW!!!

Quick Post: Update on Life in General

Hello everyone!

I have been SUPER busy these past few weeks! I have been searching for a daycare for my son and anyone looking for day care knows how time consuming and stressful that is!

Anyway, my grandmother passed away (RIP) but I am glad because she is no longer suffering! Either way I am glad that she got to meet my son and I got to see her one last time...

On a more positive note, I have been feeling like a bum because I have not been working out like I should! SOMETHING keeps coming up but I have been staying busy!

I just wanted to post a quick update! I am thinking of making a new video... just can't think of a topic....


Let me know what you want to hear about?!

Love, peace, and hair grease!
XOXO

1. I am new to "me". When I was on maternity leave I had A LOT of time on my hands and that is when I officially discovered Sephora. I wore make up before than but not with the same passion that I do now! :)

2. I recently found out that I had 3 more sisters and I went to go meet them for the first time 2 years ago and now we are like best friends! I *heart* my sisters!

3.If I could go to college again, I would go for child psychology or child development instead of business. 

4. Since I DID go to school for business I want to Master in Project Management and get my CMP certification

5. I am way too organized!!! OCD Organized

6. I hate when people are on time-- come early like 15 minutes so everything can start on time and you walking in the door at the starting time is late because you still have to get settled down! 

7. I have 3 tattoos (wrist, chest, back) but I want a half sleeve (but I don't see that happening) 

8. I have issues with my feet! I wear a size 8.5 sometimes 9 and my MOM wears a 7 so she thinks my feet are HUGE so I always thought my feet were too big

9. I love being a mom BUT i hate all of the unwanted advice. It has helped me learn to control my facial expressions though....

Beyonce New Video

So... now I must learn the new dance moves.... :) I hope you like it as much as I do! Enjoy

UPDATE: Weight Loss

So those of you who know me personally, know that I have been struggling with my weight for a few years. I decided April 4, 2011 I would get SERIOUS! :)

So I do Zumba, Belly Dancing, Walking, Running, etc. This past weekend I attended Makeover Mile with Dr. Ian Smith and it was so fun! I won a dance contest and I had a quick 20 minute workout. Anyway I have NOT been weighing myself because I did not want to be discouraged. Anyway, I was forced to weigh myself and I have lost 16 pounds!!!!!!!!!! I love it! SOOO with that being said I know now I have the exercise portion down now I must get my struggle with my Love for FOOD down! So I joined the 50 Million Pound Challenge and I discovered they give you a meal plan and some great advice. So I am going to try the 30 day meal plan and see what happens!


That is all for this update but I was proud of myself so I decided to share! :)

OBAMA finds/kills OSAMA!!!

How do you feel about this? Personally, I joked that Michelle found him (bc you know the joke that a black woman is the best detective?!) Anyway.... on a serious note, that is a huge accomplishment. :) Congrats OBAMA!!! :)
