LONG Over Due!

In blogger world, I have been gone for an eternity. MY APOLOGIZES! I love how you guys are checking back for update, but I will no longer disappoint.

I have been meaning to blog, but for some reason I haven't been fitting in the time. I will make sure that I keep you guys up to date on my lastest outfits.

I would love to have your input! Pieces you love, what you may have changed and/or your absoulute favs! I have an eye for fashion and I am trying to have that reflected in my closet. I need to do a complete closet overhaul, but I can't seem to part with my college days:)


Anywho, my girls and I went to a fashion "sample sale" hosted by Sassy City Chicks. I loved all the freebies, the items for sale however left something to be desired. They had a few nice deals and some of the vendors had really great buys. My friend Marji picked up a really nice purse! Anywho, here are the pictures from the event.

They had free nose waxing, I figured why-the-heck-not. It felt really refreshing:) TMI maybe?

A Chill in the City...

As of late, I have really been into Yelp! After Yelp help me found that lovely French Pastry place, I was hooked. Plus! I want to experience different types of food and restaurants (bucketlist). When I mentioned I wanted to have a really great sandwich, the mister mentioned Leone Cafe. He had never eaten there, but he said their coffee was delish! On top of that they have my favorite type of water:)Really bad suggestion though! LoL:) My sandwich was okay but we both found out the hard way that horseradish was not for us:/ haha

As you can see, great presentation:)

The drinks were yummy, though!

On to the outfit....

Forgetful me, forgot the memory card in my laptop. Soooo, I only have a few pictures of my outfit. Loved it! My armcandy was hidden under my jacket but hey what can you do...

These shoes are my new fave!

Well my lovelies, see you wonderful people on another post:)

LVRJ!

I haven't talked about my boyfriend all that much on my blog yet... Sooo now is probably the perfect time:) His name is Kevin, he likes to rap on his free time and he just released his mixtape Las Vegas Review Journal! Might not be you guys thing... I'm not much into hardcore hiphop myself, but I'm supportive! TeamPaypa!! hahah Here is a few videos and the mixtape cover;)

We are off to see the Wizard...

My former boss and his boyfriends, were moving to Kansas. Hence the Wizard of Oz themed party:) Loved it! Love them! Here are pictures of the party and my outfit choice!

Best Co-Workers EVER!!


Loved this outfit!!! Super comfy. I felt sexy, yet sweet:)

My Outfit is mostly Forever:)



The theme was well done through out, it should being that they work for an event/wedding planning company. Hahah

I ate these cookies ALL night, they were sooooo great!

Well hope you enjoyed loves! Sorry for the delay... I'll be back with a new outfit of the day shortly:)

Oh do you see the hair growth!!!

Bountiful Baskets!

Sooo the ladies I work with, always talk about this thing called Bountiful Basket and how good everything was to eat. I slowly started to wonder what this "bountiful basket" was because everyone in the office was now on the bountiful basket train ride. Well, I finally asked! What is bountiful basket? They directed me to a website http://bountifulbaskets.org/.

As started to read the website, I started to become unsure for a number of reasons:
-You don't know what will come in you basket
-You only have 20 minutes to pick up your basket from the time your site opens or it will be donated (My site time was 7:30am on a Saturday:/)
-I wasn't sure if I would enjoy it

Well I figured I would try it!






I loved it! Even waking up to get my basket wasn't that bad. I wish I would had taken pictures of the set-up, but it was my first time and I didn't know how the process worked.

Well our basket contained:

-Fennel
-A Head of Cabbage
-Heads of Broccoli
-Watermelon
-Blackberries
-Tomatoes
-Apples
-Bananas
-Red Peppers

I believe that finishes the list... I will try to post pictures of me playing Susie Homemaker and cooking with these items:)

If you want to know more go to their website. It was ONLY $20 for the first time and like $16 every basket after. I would say this was WAY worth it.

Birthday Goals and Midriff Dreams!

Sooooo this is a life and style blog... Sooo here is some life for you guys. Here is my birthday goal:

To wear this outfit and kill it!

This is a picture from fashionbananas.blogspot.com... Love her! She has a killer body and great style. We have TOTALLY different body shapes. I have a very athletic build, maybe from all those years of cheer.


Anywho, my birthday is June 12th and I plan on rocking something very similar to this outfit! You know I love to layer, sooo I'm probably will add a vest or a blazer... Who knows...

Here is my plan of attack:

~Start hitting the gym at least 3x's a week...
~Cut out fast food (I am trying to go no more than 2xs a week)
~Watch my calorie intake
~Detox (Drink LOTS of water)
~Lots of Crunches (Start out at 20 a night and work my way up)

I should be in shape and my body should be looking soooo great well before my birthday, but this gives me some cushion time:)

Ready, set, let's work!

Action Packed Day...

Super Busy week, but here is another outfit of the day... We went to the Swapmeet first, I was looking at a few purses. I don't believe that everything you wear has to be expense, however I do believe in quality and sometimes those go hand in hand. Anywho, I like to go to the swapmeet and search for hidden treasures at affordable prices:)

After we left, we headed over to the park for my cousin's birthday. I stole away to get a few shots.

What am I wearing:


Dress and Accessories- Forever
Boots- Chinese Laundry

Side story: I have huge calves and it is hard for me to find boots. However these are sooooooo wonderful they not only fit over my calves but they look great and they can be wore some many different ways. Perfect boot for winter.

Until next post loves,

The Sweet Melody of Relaxing:)

On my off day, I like to hang out with my family and just stay busy... I LOVE sleep, if I could I would sleep the whole day away. Sooooo in order for me to avoid that I like to run the town (but I don't do to much jogging) LOL a little Jay-Z for you...

Anywho here is what I wore:

First, we stopped off for some Philly Cheese Steaks. Which weren't that great, I have to try it with cheesewhiz (one of these days).

Then, we went to visit my favorite person EVER! My mom:) She has a piano, sooo I took a few shots of me attempting to play a few keys.

Last, we stopped off at the park to take a few more shots because it had a REALLY great view!

I loved this outfit! It was comfy, perfect for the weather and really just all around me! AND let me say these shoes are my new love.

Outfit:
Free People Jacket
Forever Tank and Skirt
Lucky Brand Wedges

Until next post loves!

All You Need is Love...

Here is what I usually wear after I get off of work. Nothing lavish, just something simple that still makes me feel pretty.

My goofy side... Hahaha I went natural to finally start growing my own hair. At this moment it is still growing on me:) Hahah pun intended.

If you can tell, I'm currently working through my own fashion voice. My sytle is pretty simple but with pops of color every now and then. I am going to try and incorporate different ideas I have been thinking about. Also remix different items to see if I can rock it better.

Love the Maddens! One of my best buys! I can wear these shoes with almost anything and they are comfy!

Well loves, thanks for stopping by... There should be a post tomorrow of the outfit I wore today... Let me know what you think;)

Rest of the outfit mostly forever 21:)
