    What to Wear to an All-White Event

    So, here’s the story. I was invited to a brunch taking place tomorrow which I’m very excited to attend. Only thing is, it’s an all-white event.

Well, it’s still today and I’ve done way worse so let’s go! ^_^ I was tagged by my buddies over at Naturally Supreme (ya know, iFro, iLoc, iTwist… yeah, they rock!), who have also joined in the #31WriteNow mayhem fun, to write 20 random facts about me… I’m soooo making this list up as I go along folks! (-_-) I was born in Barbados… …but I can’t swim. I’m watching that new show Deal With It with the hubster… it’s hilarious! I discovered six gray hairs on my head. SIX! O_O My new favorite colors are coral and teal. My fingernails are coral and my toenails are teal. I didn’t learn to drive until I was 21. Is that weird?
