Happy new year guys, 2019 is upon us. Time flies am I right? when I think about how much my life changed in one year, I am amazed, it literally flipped 180 degrees possibly 360. I remember years past. I used to get in my head and second guess everything I do, I would feel overwhelmed, I would compare myself to others. The more I felt this way the more my hope would diminish. I had so much to learn and so much to grow on. It's not like I didn't have good ideas or aspirations, I did, we all do sometimes unless it's something silly like; inventing a mobile toilet that says "yessurr" everytime you flush, or the machine that's a microwave, oven, a washer, and dryer at the same time. I digress but think about it, we all have goals and aspirations and we are all pumped up initially but life inevitably happens and then fear creeps in. Will we be able to do this? Will we be able to achieve the results that we want?

What makes Christmas Special

What's up guys, seasons greetings, I'm super excited not just because of Chrismas but because it's also my favorite time of the year (high fives for everyone). What about y'all? I am sure most of you are looking forward to this time as well. It's the season for giving and getting, being merry, so many beautiful lights, and most importantly spending time with loved ones. For me, Christmas brings with it so much memory and ambiance; a different kind of feeling, unique and true.

My chunky sneakers

Been checking out the chunky sneakers trend for a while now. I knew I wanted to style these sneakers in an edgy, chic way but I was on the fence about this trend. Every single chunky sneaker I saw were too chunky for me and for a girl who wears size 10 shoes, it won’t be cute to wear shoes that will make my feet look extra-long. Then one fateful day, I was watching one of Patricia Bright's, haul videos, where she tried on these Adidas falcons (She is a YouTuber and I follow her, she's cool). I thought to myself, okay, I see you, looking good over there with your chunky self, but before we get all excited and all, I will try you on first and we will see if this is meant to be or not. I was pumped but a little apprehensive because I still wasn't sure if it would look cute on me. 

Should you get married?

So should you get married? Some of you might say YES, others might say NO, but I believe the answer is much more complicated than we think or maybe I should say less straightforward.

I am not sure anyone can truly answer that question, even those that are in successful marriages. I mean, there are just so many variables, so many moving parts (don’t get me started on dealing with human beings and how complicated our feelings and emotions can be). Look, I don’t know if the idea of marriage is overrated and outdated. I don’t know how realistic it is in this current society. I don't know if it is possible to maintain and successfully manage a relationship for the long term. However, if I may, please allow me to share with you, our journey to “I DO”. Maybe this might help you to somewhat draw a reasonable conclusion; somewhere in between YES and NO.

Your Spirit Animal

  When it comes to fashion, I express myself through my outfits. It’s a combination of my personality and my mood for the day. Each part of a look represents an expression of my style and my personal emotion. For example, I woke up a few Sundays ago and knew this is the day I had to look good, I don’t know why, but I felt like I had to spend extra time with my skincare routine and my makeup. I also knew I would be wearing my favorite boots that day.

While i was getting ready my lovely :) husband looked at me and said I looked beautiful. I smiled at him and said challenge accepted.  I have always had a thing about mixing men’s wear into my style. I went into his closet which I don’t normally do. I styled an outfit with his clothes and my favorite boots (i will be sharing this in a future post).
